The Chfnch*Bus.

The chinch bug extends over most Of
the United States east Of the Rocky
mountains. 1t is double brooded, the,
insect passing the winter in the adult
stage, very largely atieast, and depos-
iting eggs for the first brood Of young
during May or June, these young be-
coming full grown and depositing eggs
in July and August, according to To-
cality, and the young from these eggs
developing and passing the winter as
previously stated. H.. "A
Each female deposits about 500 eggs,
usually placing them about the sur
face Of the ground on stems Of grass,
grains, and, in rare eases, other plants.
The young are at first Of a red color,
later changing to brown black, while
the adult is black with white wings.
The wings are not obtained until full
development has been reached, and
hence in the most destructive period
the insects crawl instead of fly, and
the true cause, of injury is less on ac-
count of henumbers than of the habit
of clustering in myriads on the plant
attacked. s:Gs
A heavy fall of rain during the
udlCuluS# season Is IaLdl TO the very
young chinch bugs, and it is probably
this influence that prevents their be-
coming more abundant and destructive,
though probably the fungus parasite
ito hold the species in check, especially
during seasons of reasonable rainfall.
The chinch bug is provided with "a
sucking and not a biting mouth and
therefore cannot be poisoned. Nero
sene emulsion made and applied as
recommended in the text will be found
effective; ditching in front of their ad-
vance, and plowing, narrowing and
rolling the ground will destroy large
numbers, The fungus can be used to
advantage when the weather is favora-
BILE, especially on fields that are in
clined to be damp. The burning of old
grass, leaves and rubbish in winter
will destroy many alternating adults
and reduce their numbers the fellow.
ing year. s $50 FL
Many of the state experiment sta
tions are now supplying the. chinch
bug fungus to farmers free of charge
with the hope of eventually controlling
if not entirely destroying this pest.

.C1ladness Comes

1NIith a better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts gentle efforts pleasante efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
faJnily laxative, Syrup Of Figs. prompt
sly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with mil ions Of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by3all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. IT is therefore
all Important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you ptlr-
chase, that you have the genuine arts
Gle, which is actured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable drug gg;sts.
. If in the enjoyment of good bealth,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease. ono
may be commended to the most sl1illfnl
physicians, but if in need Of a laxative,

Still, he had q fine old grizzled head,
and let fy at him. Down he dropped,
with lis near foreleg smashed. but this
did not prevent him from getting up
and making off at a good pace. His
dangling leg, however, bothered him
considerably, and after going for about
half q mile he lay down, as expected
he would do if / did not press him.
He did not appear to have made out
whence the shot came, for, though he
looked in every direction after he lay
down, he was not satisfied. 1t was
some distance back to the wagon, and
I decided to return for my horse; and
when I had ridden to within viewing
distance, 1 saw that my prey still lay
where he had dropped ,or nearly SO.
He regarded me attentively, and did
not rise until got pretty nearly up to
him, when he rose very stitfy. I then
gave him another shot, which, owing
to my horses uneasiness, missed him,
and the wounded animal alizingwhat

Low Wagons ON the EARN

A low; wagon on the farm becomes
indispensable when once tried. It is
convenient for loading and unloading
most everything to be hauled on the
farm, and when made to turn under
lis very convenient to drive about from
place to place. A low down sw agon
can be very cheaply constructed by
cutting down the wheels Of an old
farm wagon, if a new one can't be
bought.

The franchise Of easy digestlon-one Of
the most valuable in the gift of medical
science-oan be secured by any person wise
enough to use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
either to suppress growing dyspepsia, or to
uproot it at maturity. Bilious, rheumatic
and fever and ague sufferers, persons
troubled with nervousness, and the consti-
pated, should also secure the health fran
chise by the same means.

great social upheaval like the civil war
would produce a splendid crop OF this
order of writing Ctraats), and the facts
are sufficiently startling to a student of
thar period. A collection made by
Ihomason, a bookseller, is now in the
British museum and runs to the enor-
nous length of 1000 volumes several
tracts in each), the lime covered being
only few years. An idea of their rate
of publication may be had also from
the fact that Lilburne himself wrote
nearly 100, while Prynne actually pub
lished over 100. Among these, of
course, was the famous "Histrio Mas

TEE WEST NOT HOSTILE TO THE
EAST.

| have taken careful note of the tenn
per, convictions and general characters
tics of the western people, and 1 assert
with positive conviction that there is no
such attitude" of the west toward the
east as that described by Mr.. Godkin in
his article in the May Forum. On the
contrary, the attitude of the west toward
the east is of the most friendly charac-
ter. 1t is natural that this should be so;
it is impossible that it should be other
wise. The western people came from the
east, or their ancestors did; and almost
without exception they are bound to the
east by the closest ties of consanguinity.
They have taken pains to go east and to
study the east. To them the east is
back" while to the eastern people the
west is out" They are proud of the
great interests and institutions of the
east They feel that the east stands be-
tween them and Europe, and that thereby
the Old World. They have been princi-
pally educated in the east; and their
preachers, teachers, physicians and intel
lectual leaders generally are of eastern
training. Their systems of law and gov
eminent are from the east All the liter
ature they read above the local news
paper is from the east; their educational
methods are adopted from eastern stand
ards. Every western banker or financier
watches the chiefs of his profession in
the east as pupils watch their teachers.
Western merchants go east for their
goods. Western people seeking recreation
room, in short, for any such general
feeling of hostility as Mr.. Godkin de-
scribes.-Charles S. Gleed in the August
Forum.

CASTLE NEAR THE WINDOW SEAT

There's a castle here near the window
seat, a castle made of wood,
Where dwells full many wondrous
wight, some very bad, some good
On the tiptop floor lives Crusoe bold, and
Mr.. CULVER. who
Once sailed afar on the broad salt sea;
and there's Columbus. too.
And next to them lives Robin Hood and
all of his merry band,
With his little namesake, Riding Hood
upon his strong right hand.
And funny Don QuiXote, LOO, lives way
up there with these,
With his battered helmet on his head and
tincups on his knees.
On the lower floor is a fairy store-Titania
and her fays,
And Brownies by the dozens, who are
pranking all their days;
And Cinderella lives near them, with her
good old fairy friend,
And close to her Aladdin dwellS, with
stores of gold to spend.
Hop o-my Thumb lives up there, too,
and Jack with bag of beans,
And Alice of the Looking Glass, with her
queer old fussy queens;
And all the BARRIERS dwell therein, of the
old Arabian Nights;
And strewn about are heroes of at least
a thousand fights.
'Tis a wondrous band of persons grand
that nursery castle holds;
With fearful beasts, and fearful birds,
and witches, too, and scolds;
And you almost think it would frighten
me to know when 1 go to bed
That all of these creatures live so close,
almost at my very head.
But it doesn't you see, for am King,
and 1 hold the castle keys;
Not one can stir from his settled place
within unless please.
And, after all, they are safe enough in
spite of their wicked looks.
For the castle walls of which I speak
make the case where keep my books
