Ant Remedies.
Nashua, Fla

A few weeks ago we published Mr..
Aus;in's ant remedy-to Wit filling a
narrow bag with n8pthaline and fasten'
ing it around the trunk of the infested
tree. We find some additional remedies
in the Horticultural Times. This paper
says:
Every now and then ans appear to
omhine forces and will take entire pos
three methods by which to circumvent
the busy little pests. TIE first is the
surest, but great care has TO be taken in
its application, for 1t is fatal poison.
Take lard and mix into it small qnau-
tity OF corrosive 8ubjmate. Then dip \
rag or a tow string into the p1iXture ul.tjl
it is thoroughly saturated Herewith.
Next lay the rag or string around the
root of the tree at a little distance from
re trunk, making sure to have b ia ends

entrance left. In short time the ants

the saturated string over the cloth wrap
ping. The ants will leave in disgust.
If you will take the pains to rub circle
around the infested tree with ordinary
chalk, making a band about 2 inches
wide and taking care to make this as
smooth as possible, the ants cannot
crawl over it. For some reason they
slip and lose their hold. They will
sometimes cross a chalk mark on the
floor, but they cannot climb over chalk
band made on the legs of a table or a
tree.

THE SONG OF THE ORANGE TREE.

With garments dusty and torn,
With motions heavy and slow,
poor man stood in the broling sun,
Plyinghis mattock and hoe.
Dig! dig! dig
Mid the red-bug, gnat and flea,
And still with doleful measure he sung,
The song of the orange tree.
Work! work! work.
Till the arms begin to ache.
Work! work! work.
Till the back is ready to break,
Scale and foot-rot and rust,
Rust and foot-rot and scale
Till oyer the die-back 1 stand aghast
And courage begins to fall
oh! women with brothers dear,
Oh! wives with husbands and sons,
Fret not DER your lives because you must
mend
The clothes of these hard working ones,
Plow pillow, ploW,
Mid the hOrse-fies, gnats and feas,
Coaxing along a stubborn mule
'Twixt the rows OF the orange trees.
But why do look so long
On the side that is dark and cold
When in the nearing future lies,
Such mountainous heaps of gold.
Such mountainous heaps of gold
Which abundant crops will bring,
Oh then shall change my doleful tune,
And jollier song I'll sing.
The summer is past and gone.
The visions of gold are fed.
For the frost in his journeyipgs passed this
way
And the orange trees are dead,
And now with face full of woe,
With aching heart and brain,
Oh! pity the poor unfortunate man
Who must plant them over again.
Oh! but for one short week
A respite however brief,
In which to rest from these tiresome tasks.
And draw a sign Of relief,
But ali! this must never be
Though my courage is almost gone,
In spite OF two failures for one success.
1 must still keep toilng on.
With garments rusty and torn,
With motions weary and slow
poor man stood in the broiling sun,
Plying his mattock and hoe.
Dig g! Dig!
Mid the red-bug, gnat and flea.
And still with doleful measure he sung
Would that the frost's death knelI had rung
With this song of the orange tree.
