A NEW INSECTICIDE..
An Important Discovery In the Domain OF
Pomology.

An Important Discovery In the Domain OF
Pomology.
A new and Important discovery ia the
domain of pomology has been made by
F. c. Moulton. of the gypsy moth COM
mission, Maiden, Mass. Arsenate of
lead was the substance used, which
was prepared by dissolving IL ounces
acetate of lead and ounces of arsenate
of soda in $50 gallons of water. These
substances quickly dissolve and form
arsenate of lead, fine white powder,
which is lighter than paris green, and
while being fully as effective in its
operation in destroying insect life, is
far preferable for several reasons. If
by any means the mixture happens to
be used stronger than necessary to de-
stroy insect life, even three or four
times the necessary strength, it in no
wise Injuries the foliage of the plants.
upon which it is sprayed. This is
great thing in its favor, for frequently
in using paris green for potato beetle
larvae and for the Goblin worms, as
much injury results from the poison
burning the foliage as would result
from the insect if left alone.
This is better insecticide than paris
green under all circumstances and for
all insects, says Prof. Fernald. 1t has
the advantage of being readily seen on
the leaves, SO that one can tell at
glance which have and have not been
sprayed. which is often of great con-
venience. Being lighter than paris
green, it does not settle so quickly, and
as a result, can be distributed more
evenly overthe foliage. A great obiec-
ton to the use of paris green is the liza
bility of using an overdose, and thereby
injuring the foliage of the plants
sprayed. With the arsenate of lead, it
can be used, if necessary, in the pro-
portion OF rs pounds to $50 gallons of
water without injury to the foliage.
Prof. Fernald advises the addition of Q
quarts of glucose, or, if that can not be
obtained. 2quarts of molasses to each
$50 gallons of water. used for the pur-
pose of causing the insecticide to ad-
here to the leaves. He says that the
experiments last season show that
the insecticide will remain on
trees for a long time, even after
quite heavy rains, and, we INFER,
prove effective. The cost of these
chemicals at cents per pound for
arsenate of soda, and IA cents for ace
tate of lead, at wholesale. 1t sh ould
be borne in mind that these substances
are all poisonous, and should be used
with as great care as Paris green

A BIRD-HuNTlNG PIG.

lie Was as Reliable as Any Pointer Dog In
the Field.
We call pigs stupid creatures. This
is not fair. They are really as intelli-
gent as the majority of domestic ami
mails, but the lives we allow them are
too short and their opportunities too
few for them to show their abilities to
advantage. The pig of which have
more particularly to tell was by no
means a handsome specimen, but what
she wanted in beauty she made up in
talent.
DAs baby pig she belonged to person
named Toomer, and she was reared
with a family of young pointer pup
pies. She took kindly to her play
fellows, aud when they became old
enough to follow the keeper in his
walks she, too, would come trotting
and grunting after. When Mr. Toomer
began to train his young charges for
their work of finding and pointing out
game there was danger that piggy
might make mischief But the keeper
would not leave her shut up at home.
He had. he said, broken many dogs as
obstinate as pigs, and could surely
break pig that was SO much more
tractable than the rest of her kind.
So he taught her to back" that is. to
stand perfectly still whenever dog
had found game and was pointing at
it. To teach her this he used both
rewards and punishments; when she
did wrong he pelted her with tiny
stones, for he could not catch and chas-
tise her as he did naughty puppies, and
when she behaved herself well he had
always barley meal pudding in his
pocket for her.
But this was not all He discovered
that piggy, like many other pigs, had a
keen sense of smell. She learned to
scent the game, and point at it for her
self; but not quite like dog. A pointer
dog when he has found game stands
generally with one of his forepaws
held up till his master comes to him.
f'iggy, as soon as she was sure that
she had found partridge OF hare or a
rabbit, would drop on his knees and
SO remain for five minutes if necessary.
Unfortunately before her school
master had time to teach her any
further accomplishments he died His
widow sent piggy to man with whom
she lived for three years But, alas,
piggy did not escape the common doom
of pigs. In the end she was shut in a
sty. fattened, and made into bacon. as
oil her ancestors had been before her,

ence; this puts on keaifty flesh not the fat
of cod liver oil and its filthy compounds.
It rouses every organ of the body to ac-
tivity, purihes, enriches and vitalizes
the blood so that the body feels refreshed
and strengthened. If you are too thin, too
assimilation is at fault. A certain amount
of bile is necessary for the reception of the
fat foods in the blood. Too often the liver
holds back this element which would help
digestion. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery stimulates, tones up and invig-
crates the liver, nourishes the blood, and
the muscles, stomach and nerves get the
rich blood they require.

The chief advantage of deep-set-
ting of milk is that it is less exposed
to atmospheric influence.
Make hay when the sun shines and
potatoes when it rains. But some folks
can't stand hot or rainy weather.
Irregular feeding is injurious to
the fowls, and they should have their
food as regularly as we partake of
ours.
The enterprise of improvement in
stock brings prosperity as reward.
Cheap-selling always follows cheap
breeding. There is one sure way Of
bringing depression in stock.

GOOD SHEEP.


Their Selection Largely Matter of Pur-
pose and Locality.
: What is q good sheep is very i'm
portant item, and yet very few breed
ers will be found that will agree as to
what is really necessary to constitute
good sheep, and good reason for
this is that a sheep adapted to every
section and to all conditions can not
be grown in the same animal, so that
an animal of breed that would be one
mans ideal would be entirely unsuit-
able to another mans condition.
The safest mode is to select and
breed that class of animals that is
best adapted to the peculiar circum-
stances and conditions under which
they must be kept, and the more fully
this is done the better the results
in every way. With q large class

iisirable, but will prove the most profit
