THE FARMING WORLD.
A NEW INsEoTlclpE.
Thought to lie More Effective and DesiN
able Than Paris Green.

Thought TO lie More Effective and Desir
able Than Paris Green.
A new and important discovery In
the domain Of pomology has been made
by f. G. Moulton, of tho gypsy moth
commission, Maiden. Mass Arsenate
of lead was the substance used which
was prepared by dissolving II ounces
of acetate of lead and 4ounces of arsen-
ate 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 opera ton in destroying
insect life is far preferable for several
reasons II by any means the mixture
happens to be used stronger than
necessary to destroy insect life, even
three or four times the necessary
strength, it in no wise Injuries the foli-
age 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 re-
suits from the poison burning the foil
age as would result from the insect II
let alone.
This is a better insecticide than paris
green under all circumstances and for
all insects, says Prof. Fernald. II has
the advantage of being readily seen on
the leaves, so that one can tell at a
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 result, can be distributed
more evenly over the foliage. A great
objection to the use of paris green is
the liability 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 proportion of 20 pounds to $50 gal
Ions of water without injury to the
foliage. Prof. Fernald advises the adj
dition of Q quarts of glucose, or if that
cannot be obtained quarts of molas-
ses to each $50 gallons of water used
for the purpose of causing the insecti-
eide to adhere to the leaves. He says
the experiments last season show that
the insecticide will remain on the trees
for long time, even after quite heavy
rains, and we infer, prove effective.
The cost of these chemicals is given at
cents per pound for arsenate of soda
and IA cents for acetate of lead, at
wholesale. 1t should be borne in mind
that these substances are all poison
GUS, and should be used with as great
| care as paris green.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

berry is hard to beat.
WHY don't you try the high bush

For smut in sweet corn there is no

manure.
OUR favorite radishes are the quick
growing turnip-shaped sorts. Char

radishes on our table that were grown

than twenty days before.
For wood lice in frames Garden Work
gives the following remedy: Wrap a
little dry hay loosely around boiled
potato and place it in small flower
pot, lay the pot on its side within the
frame at night, and in the morning
the wood lice will be found hidden in
the hay. Shake them out into boiling
water. A number of these BATS and
perseverance in settling them, will
soon clear the frame.

with which she colored them when
they seemed to grow rusty. The two
shoes were firmly gummed to the little
china plate which the child had always
used, and the whole thing made a
dainty memento of one so dearly loved.
If the shoes have been black they can
be renewed with shoe varnish; if they
have been white you can clean them
with gasoline, and anyone handy with
needle can fix them up.

An Effective Dry shampoo.

Many women who have luxurious
tresses and who take cold easily are
obliged to forcgo washing them as
often as they would like because of the
difficulty of getting them dry quickly.
For such, dry shampoo is the next
best thing and, If carefully and thor
oughly done, it removes the accumu-
lated dust and dandruff almost as well
as washing. The hair should be shaken
loosely out ovE the shoulders and tho
head manipulated with the fingers till
all foreign matter is we'll loosened and
scattered through the hair, which
should then be parted in different
places all over the head, and the parts
cleansed with stiff little brush, after
which the entire head and hair should
be very thoroughly brushed in sections
till the dandruf is brushed out as much
as possible, when some good hair tonic
or scalp cleanser may be rubbed on and
the snarls cngendered by the whole
process gently combed out, and the
ends of the hair clipped. This should
always be done once a month to pro-
mote the growth of the hair.

In the present Corean war the weap-
ons used are almost as old as those OF
the Thlinklits or the Quichias or the
Patagonians, consisting of clubs and
other missiles, bow and arrows, wooden
spears and wooden cannon, showing
that the improved ornaments of the
modern period have yet considerable
spaces of the world to conquer. The
one advantageous thing about these
weapons is that given number of
soldiers will go farther with them and
last longer many times over than with
the improved variety. Chinese com
manders and armies until recently re-
lied a great deal upon noise in warfare
and upon the exposition of large
dragons of teakwood and pasteboard,
but have feared by experience against
foreign invaders to distrust the efficacy
of both and have adopted the arms of
their enemies. The Coreans have SINH
lar lessons to learn; that their bows
and arrows and wooden guns are what
are known as back numbers, and If
they wish to shine in arms and con-
quest they must import the improved

The Elephant Fly.

Flies are largely responsible for the
slave-t trade in Africa. The technical
name of this African fly is tsetse. 1t is
commonly called the elephant fly. 1t
is about one-half inch long and has a
bill one-ffth of an inch in length This
bill does the deadly work. The fly is
only found near big game. 1t follows
the heards of elephants. Its sting is
fatal to horses, mules, oxen and dogs
The ivory traders can not bring any
domestic animals into the country to
transport their ivory to the coast. The
transportation must be done by natives,
and as the dealers can buy negroes at a
low rate and sell them at considera-
BILE advance on the coast, the custom of
buying stout young men among the
natives, loading them with ivory and
sending them to the coast and there
selling both the ivory and the negroes
was long ago established. --Cincinnati

Dehorning Young Calves.

method of dehorning a calf when

of cutting out circular sections of bone
without injury to the underlying soft
tissues BY this method the horn is
removed with its foundation and the

"The secret of seldom wanting new

what she called patches"
There were little cans of different
kinds Of paint and enamel, different
sized paint brushes, a box of liquid gilt,
some good glue and remnants of all tho
different wall papers.
The kitchen hearth was never al
lowed to get shabby, but once n month
was treated to a coat of duh Pompeiian
red paint.
When the gas fixtures grew disrep-
utable from being furnished with age
and notified with flies they were given
coat of common white paint and then
regilded.
Picture frames whose enamel had
yellowed received n new coat. The
gliding was retouched, and the result
was a new frame. Old wooden frames
were enameled and picked out with
gilt or stained mahogany and var
nished
The handsome Chinese umbrella rack
was broken, but not on that account
discarded, says writer in the New
York Recorder. 1t was Tuended with
cement with the greatest care and the
ugly lines hidden with brush dipped
in liquid gilt and passed along the zig
gag cracks, really enriching the quaint
oriental pattern.
Many costly vase might be mended
by this process, and so long as it was
only used as bric-a-brac no one would
be the wiser. A good cement for
broken china may be made by beating
the white of an egg to paste with
-four; or half an ounce of gum arabic
may be dissolved in gill of boiling
water and thickened with plaster Of
paris.
The piano movers had broken and
torn an ugly cash in the hall wall
paper, but single breadth carefully
put on made it as good as new.
Loosened chair rungs or arms were
always quickly glued in place. A tiny
hole in the wire screen door was never
allowed to grow larger until first tho
cat and afterward the dog had free
pass into the hall or kitchen. It was
promptly mended with fine wire, and
the screen doors were painted every
year before they wTe put up, which
make both wire and frame last twice
as long.
