small gray moth, resembling a clothes
moth, and measures only about half an
inch with its wings spread.
It is represented in the figure at G
and can easily be recognized by it's
satiuy luster and by its much-fringed
hind wings. The moth lays its eggs
emily upon hard grain and they are de-
posted both in the field and in the
granary. The eggs hatch in about
week and the young worms work thein
way into the grain (see Z in the fgure),
where they feed about three weeks be-

winter only in your barns and store
houses. 1t VIII oreeJ uninterruptedly,
generation after generation, in stored
wheat After harvest the moth flies
out from the granaries to the wheat
fields and lays its eggs upon grains Of
wheat in the shock. The Larvae are
not destroyed by thrashing and are
carried back into your granaries again.
1t is plain from these facts that if the
granaries are kept free from this pest
the shocks viii not become infested in
the fields. If the individual farmer,
however, takes the trouble to disinfect
his granary his wheat shocks will be
infested from moths flying from the
barns Of his neighbors, provided he
does not thrash very soon after harvest
or before the eggs hatch and the larve
penetrate the grain. | know there is
more or less difficulty in getting

the wheat must be left in the fields the
farmer should disinfect his granary
soon after the wheat is put in.
This insect has several natural ene-
mics, and I have recently bred several
species OF very small winged parasites
from it. No doubt these natural
agents keep it in check to a certain ex-

a young woman with pretty little
voice, but with no great possibilities in
her singing, has laid out course for
herself which IS so decidedly shrewd
that IL may wcl be worth noting. She
devote5 herself entirely to Scotch
songs, most OF them the old ones of
Burns or Scott Now, every listener,
except the severoat musical critic whom
she could not hope to satisfy in any
case, is sentimental and likes TO have
that sentiment catered to by means Of
the ear. The singer has taste and wit
enough to eschow "Annic Laurie and
Comm Thro' the Rye, save by re-
quest, when her compliance gives an
added charm of llindliness She hunts
up sweet old tunes and pathetic words
and after the most brilliant perform
nnce Of her rivals she seats herself at
the piano, and, like the heroine in the
lackadaisical novel, she charms her
audience by running her fingers over
the keys" and singing softly ''some
dear old song" or other. All, that is q

BEET culture is now extending to
Africa
TARRNa the seed will protect the
corn from crows.
some varieties of potatoes are hollow
hearted on rich soil.
The practice OF washing sheep be-
fore shearing is fast dying out
A CLEAN horse Is always happy, and
it takes less feed to keep him in eondi-
ton.
A CANNING factory is about to be es-
tablished at Honolulu, the first in Ha-
vaii.
TIE English claim that 20 per cent.
of the American sheep imported are
diseased.
CARELEssSEss and its twin brother,
lice, are the worst enemies Of the poul-
try yard
New ZEALAND exported in 1894 635,-
500 pounds Of butter and 1890 pounds
of cheese.
THE East India rice crop is reported
at 1865 100 acres this year, against
15.39e, 400 last year.
TuE greater growth of the potato
vines the better shade they make, and
this keeps the soil cool and moist, and
beneficial to the crop.
THERE is a horsemeat war in Paris.
The pork butchers are demanding the
labelling Of sausages in which this
meat has been used, and it is probable
that law on this subject win soon be
passed. The Importance of the indus
try can be realized from the fact that
in 1892 10000 horses were slaughtered
in Paris, threc-fourths of when went
into sausages N. Y. World.

TITS GOT TO BE ARRANGED SOMEHOW"
here?' and walked to the other side of
the yacht to recover his composure.
For Jack Walford was still young
enough to believe that love is eternal,
and, though he had no intention of
making any unmanly fuss over the
matter, he knew very well that his
heart had been irrenediably broken
by the cruelty of this coquette in blue,
now lavishing her dangerous smiles on
all corners.
Jack looked out over the calm water
and thought of the evening just
month before, when he and she had
walked together under the signing
branches of the pines and the sea
breeze had rufied the bewitching little
curls around her forehead. The poor
boy choLed to remember the trifle
eight as air" which had been the
cause of their quarrel and vainly tried
to cousole himself with the reflection
that If Kitty had ever really loved him
she'could not have made those savage
speeches which had cut him to the
heartl One recollection, however,
gave Jack melancholy comfort.
When Miss Crawford had drawn from
her finger the ring which he had placed
there with so much love and pride
few short weeks before, Jack had re-
ceived the little token without a word,
and, turning on his heel, had hurled il
into the dancing waves. Then, with.
out single backward glance, he had
walked away, and by this course Of
conduct Jack thodght, perhaps not un-
reasonably, that he had properly sus-
tanned the dignity of q much-inJured
man.
And now, though he had been taken
by surprise and compelled to beat u
temporary retreat, Jack, who was grit
to his finger ends, had no intention of
surrendering without a blow. After
fifteen minutes of reflection he found
himself able to approach Kitty and
greet her with a careless cordiality;
and then Immediately devoted himself
to making the acquaintance of Miss
Huntington, who was almost as pretty
as her enthusiastic hostess had de-
clared. And so the morning passed un-
eventfully, and the afternoon was we'll
advanced, when Miss Delamore called
upon Kitty to sing.
Kitty responded with the readiness
which was one of her charms. She
brought her guitar from the cabin,
took her seat conveniently near the
spot where Jack was carrying on
very fair imitation of a Irritation with
Miss Huntington, and without preface
or apology began one of the favorite
ballads of the day.
