Ants as Mushroom Growers.

The more ants are studied the'm more
humanlike appear their ways. Re
ference has already been made in this
column to certain species which carry
on agricultural pursuits, raising grain
planted by the busy insects and care
! for herds of aphis or cant cows, and
the Investigations made by entomolo-
gists of other species are equally inter
esting.
In Brazil, for instance, are four spe-
cies that seem to be devoted to mush-
room culture. These ants gather green
leaves, tear them into fine fragments
and beat them into a soft, spongy
mass within their nests, as founda-
ton of the bed. From this the fun
gus the ants are fond of grows lux
uriantly. If other kinds than the one
desired spring into being they are as
carefully weeded out as a human
gardener would noxious weed from
his flower beds.
Sometimes the home of these ants
contains several mushroom beds, but
in all cases small space is left be-
tween each and the outer wall of the
home. When they take journey,
the ants, it is said, they carry with them
the material of the garden, even to
the smallest fragments, and rebuild
the structure in their new abode. In
another part of South America are six
other species of ants which cultivate
mushrooms, but, instead of leaves as
a bed, use wood, grain or dung.
Four species of these ants cultivate
one sort of fungus and the other two
second.
1t is stated as curious fact that,
although these fungi all belong to one
group, the ants, even when hungry,
are found to refuse disdainfully the
food of another genus. Even the spe-
cies of ants of the same genus, which
cultivate the same species of fungus,
produce by different methods of cul-
ture a difference in the nature OF their
special food bodies.

Hebrews, 1873.

A minister in a small town of Kan
sas was boarder at the only restau-
rant of the place. The fare, as is
quite common, was exceedingly mono
tonous, consisting chiefly of hash three
times day. The preacher became
wearied of it and one day when the
waitress set the dish by his plate, he
looked at the hash and then at her
and said, "Hebrews, 1873" She ask
ed him what he meant. He replied
that he did not like to say, but wished
her to look up the reference. They
procured bible, turned to the place
mentioned and read: "Jesus Christ,
the same yesterday and to-day and
forever"

A MODERN JURY.

Three weeks they sought in patience twelve
jurymen to gain,
Well qualified by ignorance and fertile lack
of brain;
Three weeks they challenged right and left
nor found the men they sought
Devoid of mind, devoid of sense, and inno-
cent of thought.
They sought the perfect jury in which none
could detect
The least activity of mind or trace of intel
lect-
And over the empty jury-box this legend
did appear:
"Leave we all intellect behind, all ye who
enter here |"
The first man called was asked his age; he
paused as if in doubt.
"Be quick, speakgupl" the-lawyer said, "be-
fore the century's out.
How old are you, be quick, I sayp' 81
think" the man replied
,"Ah, that's enough" the judge broke in,
''you are disqualified"
They called the next man to the stand; he
came up nothing loath;
They asked him if he understood the nature
of an oath.
81 hardly know" the man replied but yet
tits my idea"
"Ideas, ideas!" the lawyer sneered, are all
boycotted here!"
The next was turned away because they
spied trace
OF fhalf-concealed intelligence depicted in
his face.
So they rejected every one, refused both
great and small
Some vestage of mentality disqualified
them all.
An idiot asylum superintendent then arose
And said "a plan, your honor, venture
to propose.

think you will succeed,
And find among my idiots the very men
you need"

To Corn Beef,

The cuts usually corned are all the
tough parts. The plate piece is al
ways jucier than any other, and is the
best for dressing, to slice cold. If the
meat is to be eaten hot the brisket or
rump pieces are the best.
For corning twenty-five pounds of
beef, use two pounds of salt, three
quarters of pound of brown sugar,
half teaspoonful of soda, three-quar-
ters of an ounce of salt petre and one
gallon of water. Put all in kettle and
place it on the fire. Stir frequently
and skim WELL When the brine has
been boiling for ten minutes, take it
off and set it away until perfectly
cold.
Have the beef cut in pieces of a
suitable size for using at one time. Be
sure it has been thoroughly cooled
and drained. Place it in large but
ter frkin and pour the cold brine upon
it. Now lay slate slab or piece of
wood upon the meat and upon this
place large stone or any heavy
weight that will keep the meat under
the brine. Cover the frkin and set it
in a cool, dark place. The beef should
be kept in the brine at least three weeks
and can be kept for year.

A Sermon on s.smart'' Men.

have been hearing of smart men
all my life, but I never knew one.
Occasionally find one who promises
to be smart, but finally does some
thing to convence me that he is fool
like the rest of us. Every little
while young man is pointed out to
me who is said to be very promising,
and watch him, hoping to know a
smart man, but then he drifts into the
WAYS of his father and make the mis-
takes common to other men. | don't
believe it was ever intended that there
should be any smart men. The men
who occupy the distinguished positions
are found on examination to be exact
ly like other men. When they are
playing seven up they stand when
should have begged; they marry the
the wrong woman and make invest
ments that they should not have made.
AS soon as a great man looses his
great position he becomes loafer, un-
less he hides at home. If there are
any smart men they have kept out OF
nv way.-Parson Twine.

Mr.. EDTTOR:-We, as a people, are
passing through troublous times, re-
quiring the keenest foresight as to &C.
ton in our own behalf, and the great
mass of humanity dependent on said
action. We see more plainly through
daily developments that a deadly an
tagonism On the part of the enemies of
sound government is being developed
and fostered by those who, though a
minority numerically in the land, seek
to impregnate the minds Of the people
with political issues damning to indi-
vidual interests, and subversive of the
fundamental principles of State gov
eminent. Such a condition of affairs
is much to be deplored. The old par
ties, after long life and constant wars.

lance well poised, champion the cause
of the masses against the classes. That
the necessity for prompt and decided
action exists no man with half a mind
can for one moment doubt. Recent
legislation in our State too plainly evil
dences the fact that the so called De-
mocracy are determined to, yea have
already adopted the revolutionary SEN

who would preserve the government
of our fathers intact, must buckle on
the armor of true democracy-that of
Washington, Jefferson and others of

inch of ground sought to be desicated

and the oppressors of honest labor.

LETTER FROM NASH COUNTY.


MR.. EDIToR:-Allow me through the
medium of your paper, to say a few
words in regard to our Alliance Oak
land.) am glad to say that u ALI
ance is in touch with the science of the
times. I don't think there is an ALI
ance anywhere that works with more
harmony than ours. We have very
good material in our Alliance-men
who are not disappointed because they
haven't got forty acres and a mule. l
notice that those who read reform lit
erature are our most punctual and
hardest working members. Brethren,
we must educate, we must read reform
literature, we must do our own think
ing. One hard problem solved by your
own brains is wortht two solved by some
one else's. lam glad to say that the ALI
ance is doing a great and glorious work.
Already it's good influence is felt not
only by educating our people in the SCI.
ence of economy, but in the home circle.
It has done more to obliterate the bitter
and sectional feeling in the Church OF
God than anything else has ever done.
1t has caused neighbors to feel more In
sympathy with each other. 1t has
caused people to give more attention
to their farms, stock and everything
pertaining to home economy. And
now, brethren, don't be discouraged.
A few such as Meesrs. Macune and
Stevens and a few other partisan Office
seekers may turn traitors, but the
mighty host of reformers will march
in one solid phalanx until nations will
tremble at its mighty power. Close
up ranks, brethren, the fight is on. The
groans of thousands may be heard
waiIing for bread. We have remon-
strated, we have supplicated. Our
petitions have been sighted, u de-
mands ignored. We have been
spurned at the foot of the throne.
Then if we wish to be free, if we mean
to preserve inviolate those inestimable
privileges for which we have been so
long contending, if we not base
~ to abandon the noble struggle for
which we have been engaged. We
must fight. The battle is not to the
weak alone, it is to the strong, the &C
tive and the brave; and with brave
Weaver and Field we don't propose our
rights to yield, but with the flag of
truth unfurled we are prepared to face
the world.

RED SPIDER OR LICE ON COTTON.

Every a as soon as the hot, dry
weather begins in earnest, the Expert
ment Station receives complaints of the
damage caused to cotton plants by a
small red mite which most farmers call
a louise. This is scientifically known
as Tetrdnychus tOLGTIWS. 1t is a true
mite which lives on the under surface
Of the leaf covered by a white slken
web. It inserts it's beak in the veins
of the leaf and sucks out the sap caus-
ing the leaf to turn red Or brown in
spots, producing what is often called
rust" The leaf eventually withers
and falls off. This little post is so
small it generally escapes notice until
it's presence is made known by the
rusty appearance of the cotton leaves.
Remedies: Probably the most salts
factory remedy is to send men through
the fields with baskets or bags and pick
off all rusty leaves, carry them away
with their ~infesting mites and burn
them. As they live on the under side
of the leaf only it is difficult to use
spray against them unless one has a
nozzle that will throw the spray up
wards. Such a nozzle attached to a T
rod is made by the Field Pump Co., of
Lockport, N. Y. 1t is illustrated in
Bulletin "a of the N. @. Experiment
Station.
The kerosene emulsion made accord
ing to formula No. 9 Of the same bulle-
tin is the best insecticide to use, but
unless it is we'll made, the kerosene is
apt to burn ~thaleaves. Areliable ready
prepared emulsion can be bought of

ton, Md, as cheap as any one can
make it.
The tobacco d~ecoction will also de-
stroy these mites. 1t is made by boil
ing tobacco stems or powder in water
for half an hour at the rate of one Id.
tobacco to three gallons water. 1t will
be more powerful if sulphur is used in
connection. Mix five lbs. of flour of sui
phur with 10 lbs. of fresh lime and boil
together in five to ten gallons Of water
for half an hour. Add this boiling hot
to twenty gallons of diluted tobacco de-
coction and use at once. Instead of
boiling lime and sulphur, sulphide of
lime may be bought at the stores. One
ID. Of this powder should be we'll mixed
with one quart of ordinary soft soap
and the whole then stirred into twenty
gallons of the hot tobacco decoction
and used at once. Should the weather
turn wet these mites will soon disap,

much moisture .-GerGld Mccarthy,
