The Engineering and Mining jour-

effect of the Chinese indemnity on the
price of Silver, concludes with the
following remarks; "Upon the whole,
the best prospect for the improvement
in the price OF silver comes from the
increasing probability'of the adoption
of system of international bimetall-

OUR INSECT FRIENDS AND FOES.

According to Prof. Panton, of the On
tario Agricultural College, there are
nearly 100 species of insects that prey on
grain and forage crops; upward of forty
attack vegetables; no less than fifty
menace the grape; and five threaten the
apple. The pine has 125 species as ene-
mics; the oak, 300; the elm, 80; the hick
DRY, ITO; the maple, IS; the beech. $50;
while the unfortunate willow battles
against some 400 species of insect foes.
Some idea of the immense loss that is
sustained by the human race from in
sect pests may be imagined from the
fact that in 1884, in the United States
alone, the amount is estimated to have
been S400,000,000, but in 1891 it was
S3OO,000,0 900, and, thanks to the investi-
cations of Germon scientists, it is be-
lieved to be annually decreasing. 1t is
not to be supposed, however, that the
fullest knowledge available to man will
suffice absolutely to prevent these losses;
but these figures are so enormous that
the reduction of them within smaller
dimensions becomes a matter of very
great importance. All insects are not
our foes; and just what birds are most
fond of beneficial insects it would be in
teresting to be informed But we are
somewhat in the dark about this even
yet. Prof. Panton gives list of few
insects which are our friends: Surplus

lace-wi ged flies, wasps, cuckoo fes and
ichneumons.
These insects are said to be of great
Importance in keeping the mischievous
species under. the ichneumons being
especially good at this business. They
prey on certain grubs by depositing eggs
on their living bodies. When these eggs
hatch, the young worms feed upon their
host till the latter can stand the strain
no longer and forthwith dies. About
this time the ichneumons are ready to
fly as perfect insects. 1t is no uncom-
mon thing to find upon tomato or to-
bacco plant one of the large green worms
which infest these plants, with dozen
or so small whitish thorns sticking into
its hide. These are the ichneumon eggs
which eventually kill the worm. Lady
birds feed upon plant lice; groundbeetles
are said to prey upon the potato beetle
and various kinds of caterpillars; while
the tiger beetle will eat almost anything
in the insect line.

ARBITRARY PARENTS.

There are people to whom their chill
dren never seem grown up. They exact
from their grown sons and daughters
precisely the same kind of Difference and
the same degree of submission that it is
perfectly right to receive from little
children.
Neither the young man nor the young
woman under their roof is allowed to live
the independent life to which every
adult. under certain restrictions, has
right. In the choice of profession, for
instance, the unwise father of the type
to which refer. is unwilling to let his
boy consult his own inclinations He
thinks he can himself choose better than
his junior, and he forgets that his choice
may be as selfish as it is arbitrary.
Daughters, more than sons, however, are
made to feel the pressure of authority
exercised, when, in the nature of things,
authority should give place to influence.
l have seen women of twenty-five and
over who were never allowed to go on a
journey, make visit, or buy dress or
bonnet. without as much talk and as
many objections and discussions on the
part Of their mothers as though they
had been girls of ten.
Boys commonly emancipate them
selves. if they are possessed of any force,
from home which has ceased to be a
shelter, and has become hedge. They
are trained from childhood to think that
as men they will have place in the
world, incur responsibilities, and-in the
accepted phrase-earn their own living.
Girls, too often specifically taught
even in these days of the higher educa-
tion of women. remain at home, with
many general duties and nothing very

Milk as food for pigs has a feeding
value far beyond its actual food elements
if given in the proper com bination with
other rations. but it is a great waste to

d rectly off the pasture into market,
though the more approved plan is to
give them the range of the small grain
fields after harvest, which hardens the
flesh and improves their quality.
All the Western alfalfa States can pro.
duce pork at an expense which puts
them in close rivalry with their neigh
bors further east. There is another ad-
vantage in the more southern parts of
that region in the fact that they have
climate which permits of narrowing at
any season of the year, and having green
feed constantly on hand.
Many pigs are lost through improper
care OF the sows, especially the winter
care of the mothers which are to bring
her pigs in the spring. The unnatural
habit of destroying her young comes
largely from improper diet and bad san
itary surroundings. If the mother is
feverish or excited it is impossible to say
what she will do.

HORSES.

A warm stable saves feed, and is a

Although the hay crop was light,
many predicted that the prices would
be low because of the fact that electric

ABBOTTSFORD.

or all fascinating spots around Edin-
burgh the most charming is the home of
Sir Walter Scott. A short ride on the
cars brings us to Melrose, where we take
an omnibus for four mile trip through
the country to Abbotsford, the baronial
castle that was the pride of the heart of
the grandest old man that Scotland ever
produced. The building is situated in a
little valley right on the banks of the
Tweed. Mrs. Maxwell Scott, grand
daughter of Sir Walter, owns the prop
erty, but is too poor to keep it up, so she
rents it to family who are kind enough
to allow visitors to see the apartments of
Scott. We we're first shown into Sir
Walters study, where he wrote his nov
els. In the center of the room are his
chair and desk. The walls are lined
with books. A little staircase is built
midway entirely around the room. SO
they could be reached easily. This stair
leades also to his bedroom. In the IL
brary proper the ceiling was copied from
Melrose Abbey, which Scott so much
admired. In this room there is paint
ing of SCOTS oldest son, and bust of
himself. In case of curios standing in
the niche of window that looks out on
the Tweed, is the crucifix that Mary
Queen of Scots held when she went to
her execution; also buckles in the shape
of flies from the shoes of Napoleon, who,
by the way, was born on the same day
and in the same year that Scott was; also

ing noticeable. In this hall also are
