Cause of New Bugs and BIights.

A writer in the Rural New Yorker, re-
ferring to his interviews with Professor
Bailey, of Ithaca, ". Y. says: Now, the
first thing l asked Prof. Bailey was a point
that has bothered me for a long time
why do we hear of so many new bugs
and bights nowadays? Every year seems
to bring half dozen new.ones. Why didn't
they show up in old times?" I'll guarantee
that many readers have asked themselves
that question. In fact so many new bugs,
bhghts and bulletins have appeared upon
the scene that some farmers have actually
gone so far as to say that the scientists
nave brought these things in to give them
selves chance to talk and work.
Prof. Bailey's explanation of this was
simple and interesting. AS an illustration
he took the potato beetle-which we ali
know. Sixty or more years ago, that in
sect was found only in the Rocky noun
tains, living on certain wild plants-noth-
ing but great curiosity to scientific men.
1t was few in number because its food was
limited When people began to raise DO
tatoes in Colorado, this bug developed
great fondness for the potato vines. II
left the wild mountain plants and went TO
the potato fields. The increase of food
meant an increase of insect, and il spread
from one field to another all over the
country. 1t was simply an increased food
supply and better opportunity that spread
the bug. If potatoes had never been grown
in Colorado, there would probably never
nave Deeu any potato bugs IN your Uelu.
No doubt, there are dozens of other in
sects now comparatively harmless simply
because their food supply limits their in
crease. A borer that works on apple trees
affords another illustration. This insect
formerly worked on oak trees entirely. 1t
liked apple better, and as orchards be-
came more and more numerous, this in
sect left the oak for the apple and be-
came dangerous pest. That is the way
il goes. New methods of culture, new
crops and new farm areas give these IN
sects and plant diseases new lease of
life, and newer and easier means of trans
portation enable them to be carried about
more readily. This is a reasonable explana-
tim

The autumn is the time to plant ever
green trees and shrubs, writes a Long
Island correspondent in Gardening. He
says:
Now is capital time to plant ever
green coniferous trees; also rhododen-
drons kalmias, andromedas, amoena
azaieas, tree box. hardy heath and other
plants of this kind that keep good balls
of earth with lots of fibers to their roots
They should be well soaked before they
are put into the holes, and before finishing
filling in the dirt about them give them
a reasonably good watering. Do not
water on the surface of the ground, as it
crusts the earth and prevents a free pen
etration of rain and air.
Don't plant coniferous trees, as pines,
frs, spruces or arbor vitaes, more than
one or two inches deeper than they were
before. OF course the size of the plant
has a good deal to do with this. Big
trees can bear a little more depth than
small ones. Don't overwater conifers
Rhododendrons, azaleas and the like can

TREE PLANTING.
Conditions That Warrant Success
When Trees Are Set Out for the Fan

Conditions That Warrant Success
When Trees Are Set out for the Fan
With each recurring season the ques-
ton is asked, which is the better time 10
set out trees, the spring or the fall? The
answer to this must depend upon the ma
ture of the tree or shrub, the part the
country, condition of soil and climate
where the planting is to be done. For
example. in the extreme north or the open
prairie country where the thermometer
may go extremely low and what is worse,
where harsh drying winds may prevail
most of the winter, all but the hardest
trees and evergreens are decidedly safer
planted in the spring than in the fall. II,
however, plenty of roots are taken. and,
what is even perhaps of more Importance,
a gOodly lot of soil is taken with the
roots. allowing no undue exposure of
them to the air, tree well planted in
the fall is perfectly safe.
Aids to success will consist in evenly
distributing the roots in the new earth,
in COMPRISING the soil well about the
roots. and If the trees are large enough
to be acted upon by the wind in placing
stay wires to keep them snug and in
place.
In warm countries, where the frosts
amount to nothing, the fall is the time to
plant, or just as soon as the plants have
come to a state or rest. Here root ac-
ton at once sets in to repair the damages
of removal, and by the time spring time
comes the newly planted trees are fully
equipped for a new start.
Nurserymen of the north usually re-
serve the planting of their young stuff
until the spring-a pretty good evidence
of where success lies. AS stun has to be
dug or is received from outside sources
in the fall, instead of being replanted at
once they are laid in by the heels"-that
is, they are placed in rows in the ground
nearly horizontal instead of upright.
where they are easily protected If neces-
sary by a few boughs to keep off the dry
ing winds of winter.

Crimson Glover.

ANY one who reads the agricultural pa
pers will readily recognize the fact that
there is nothing creating more interest
than Crimson Glover. North. south, east
and west the farmers are discussing the
propriety of sowing this clover.
While we have always protested against
anything of the character of a boom -
we are not disposed to say anything
against the boom of Crimson Glover, and
simply from the fact that we believe 1t

mer that reads this paper.

To Take Evidence.

The Court at Victoria, B. G., be-
fore whom the case of Cranstoun
aud Muller VS.. The Csnadian-Au
trsliau Steamship line for damages
is pending, has appointed Mr.. Henry
Smith, Chief Clerk of the Supreme
Court OF the Republic of Hawaii,
to be commissioner to take evi.
dence in the said case. The plain
tiff, are suing the steamship COM
pany for damages to the amount Of
$4,000 each for assisting the Ha-
waiian Government in forcibly and
illegally deportiug them from these
islands. A Victoria lawyer, Mr..
Davis, was sent here by the steam
ship company, but owing to the
prevailing cholera refused to land
and went to Australia. Cranstoun
and Muller were both political
prisoners during the rebellion. They
were compelled to leave the country
by the Hawaiian authorities who
wanted to see if deportation" with
out trial of foreigners living here
under treaty stipulations would be
tolerated. The Hawaiian Govern
ment furnished heavy bonds to the
steamship company before the latter
agreed to receive he men on board
The case will be- decided in the
British Courts, and will be of vast
interest to the men concerned, to
Hawaii, to the taxpayers-and to
the lawyers. 1t is understood that
Craustoun and his fellow "exiles"
will return in the near future to
Honolulu to protect their interest S.
