ers, But Never Caught.
During the sllmmersof 1875 bands Of
Indians returning from a hunt far out
on the plains brought in stories of hav-
ing seen at different times and in diff
ferent places, and always in the center
of large herd. a white buffalo. They
had used their best horses in the effort
to overtake it, to no purpose, never be-
ing able to get anywherenear the ami
NAL.
At first we did not pay much attention
to this story, but still it kept cropping
up from different camps, and at last in
the fall Of 1875 myself had chance
to verify the truth of the report. I had
been sent on duty north along the Red
Deer river and was camped near large
band of Blackfeet, who were hunting
south Of that river. The buffaloes had
moved north in vast numbers and the
prairie was black with them.
had gone out one morning with q
party of Blackfeet to- see one of their
hunts, and also to try and kill for my
self. My horse was a good one, and
much faster than any belonging to the
Indian hunters. I mad got detached
from the party, becoming tired of the
slaughter, and must have been att least

As approached the wood d band of
shout 100 animals burst out of the brush
and made off to the south, and yes, most
certainly, in the middle of them was
white buffalo. Although they were a
quarter of a mile away, there could be
no mistake about it; he was there as
large as life and quite white, and run
ming like a deer. There was no time to
much more than take in the scene; but I
gathered up the reins and was after
him, determined to bag that buffalo or
kill my horse.
Oh, what a race it was, mile after
mile, and although all the band, with
the exception of about a dozen, had
split off and gone in different direc-
tions, the white animal, with his body
guard of about a dozen, kept about the
same distance ahead. I could catch 4
glimpse of him now and then, and there
was no doubt he was snow white. Get
within SHOT could not for many miles.
At last they began to tire, and, al

hopes OF coming up and getting a shot.

Peach Tree Borer.

mon pest throughout the country
wherever the peach is grown. 1t is a
native American, and doubtless SUBJ
sisted in the wild plums, which were
widely scattered. 1t is claimed by
some that it attacks the cherry, but
have as yet to be convinced that the
cherry is ever infested by them.
The presence of the peach borer is
discernible by the emulation of a glr-
tinous, gummy matter at or near the
crown of the tree. To the orchardist
no introduction is needed of this ene-
my. Yet it is no uncommon thing to
meet Orchardists who, while recOg-
nizing the Importance of the pest, and
knowing it's habits, are unfamiliar
with the parent insect. The parent is
a moth, yet is mistaken frequently for
a wasp, which it strongly resembles.
In the males this characteristic is
more strongly developed than in the
female. In color the moth is deep
blue. In the male the wings are trans
only. The female is much the larger
when her wings are expanded, being
fully one and one-half inches across.
In this latitude they appear about
May LIST. They deposit their eggs in
the bark at few inches below the
surface of the ground. The egg is
very small; color, yellowish brown.
After short period of incubation
they are Matched, the worm entering
the bark of the tree to the sap wood
where it feeds until fall. This is the
time the greatest damage is usually
done, as not infrequently the tree is
entirely girdled and dies. How to get
rid of them is therefore an important
factor. The remedies are legion
quack nostrums are abundant
little common sense injected into
little work will give you the greatest
satisfaction. About May LIST take
hoe and mound the ground about
your trees four to six inches in
height. This will induce the moth to
deposit her eggs high up in the tree.
You should maintain this mound. If
the winds and rain displace it, go
over your trees and replace the
ground about the trunk. You should
see that the weeds are kept down.
About the 10th or middle of Septem-
Der you should with the hoe remove
the ground, leveling it. You will be
surprised at the result. Many exuda-
tons of gummy matter will part from
the tree, carrying with it numerous
larvae. Wherever this substance is
found scrape the tree and that tree
will be beyond the power of the
moths influence for at least that year.
It is quickly done. An active hand
can effectively care for 500 to 1000
tree per day. I have rarely lost a
tree, although following this custom
for more than fifteen years. 1t does
sometimes happen that some larvae
escape observation at first but by hav-
ing the tree scraped you can at
glance see any that remain, by having
four to six inches of the body eX-
