Insects on Trees in Winter.

A few winter days may be very
proftably employed in thoroughly
cleansing fruit and shade trees
The fruit and shade may thus be
saved, and the appearance of the
trees during the next summer will
be improved. The aim should be
in all cases to have clean, healthy,
well-fed trees, as these are the least
susceptible to insect attacks. Fee
bic or infested twigs or branches
should always be cut out promptly
as soon as noticed, and in all cases
these should be burned to kill any
larv@ which they may contain. It
will pay to scrub the bark of all
kinds Of trees each winter with a
stiff brush and the suds of whale oil
or other soap, to remove harboring
MOSES, fungus growths, or other
parasitic plant life and to kill the
insects wintering in the crevices.-

A Bear and Alligator Fight.

A Southern gentleman, who was
once an eyewitness of an encount-
err between q bear and an alligator,
has given the following vivid de-
scription of the combat:
"While fishing on the banks Of a
beautiful stream in Western Louisi-
ana, | was startled by the roaring
of some animals in the cane-brake
close by, who were apparently get
ting ready for action. These notes
of warlike preparations were sue
ceeded by the sound Of feet tramp
ing down the canes, and scattering
the shells on the ground.
Rushing to the trysting-place,
or field Of battle, there, instead Of
being, as was supposed, two prairie
bulls, mixing impetuously in the
fray, was large black bear raised
upon his hind legs, his face be-
smeared with white foam, sprinkled
with blood, which, dropping from
his mouth, rolled down his shaggy
breast. On bank Of snow-white
shells, in battle array, was bruins
foe--a huge alligator.
