The Pompadour pun the Vogue.

, Il is decree Of fashion that the
hair shall be dressed in some form or

the tendency has been growing, and

Raspberry Cane Eorer.

The eggs Of the raspberry cane borer
are usually laid III June, and the
dropping of the ends of the young
shoots are the first indication that the
cane has been attacked. Examination
will show that at the base OF the droop-
ing portion, two circles of pnnctures
extend around the shoot These cir
cles are about half inch apart and
| between them the egg has been de-
posted in small hole. While laying
. the egg the beetle gnaws the shoots
| with her Jaws. 1t is done for the pur-
| pose of stopping the flow OF sap and
| the growth Of the shoot, which might
| crush the egg, an exhibition of instinct
that is closely akin to reason. The
larva that is hatched from this egg
bores down through the spith Of the
cane to the roots. Another evidence
| of remarkable instinct are holes IL at
will be found every few inches, and
extending from the tunnel to the ont
side Of the cane, the purpose OF which
is to enable the larva TO deposit It's
excrement outside the burrow. If the
canes are closely watched and the
dropping part cut off and burned Ak
soon as shoots begin to droop, tho
remedy is perfect. for the larva Is

Place For the Annual Plants.

The annual plants ought to be put.
not into beds, but into the borders
with the perennials and the shrubs.
Or if shrubs and perennials are not
grown, then the ANNALS have the
border to themselves. Arranged in
this way, they are capable of some of
the most brilliant and satisfying
effects which plants can ever give.
In the irregularity and lnformality Of
the border it makes no difference if
one plant or n whole lot of plants fail
to grow. The irregularity is not do
stroyed; or if some celandines or
dandelions crowd into half occupied Il
nook somewhere, there is no harm
done, for flowers are what we want.

When he determined t0 embark ID the cattle busine>s he pur- chased an cid stag. and that was the only animal he was ever known tU have purchased His herd increased, however, until in three or four years he had some four or five hundred head of cattle. His COWS were all of il pecu liariy prolific breed, invariably drop. ping twins and often tripiets. His memory was also remarkable. IT a dispute arose over any animal bearing his brand. no matter how long i6 had been since he had seen it., he conid, describe every hair. spot aud bi' mish on it, and swear positively tn its mother. But it appears that Pat has lost his inning and his country at one and the sane time.

Graham Bulletin: Joe T McKiq- ney, at Safford recently purchased a very fine Kentucky mare from Captain Nicholson of San Carlos. MT, McKin- ney says this mare is of fsuperior breed and he expects to give some attention in the future to the measure of fine horses and mares.
 Graham Bulletin: Mir. W. A. Giles pie was in town on Monday from. the roundup. The cattlemen all report that they are short on gathering. Some think the cattle have been driven or, but others are inclined to think they have drifted off into the hills where the grass is good and where they probably get water and don't come to the water holes.
 The Graham Bulletin informs us that the cattle stealing cases against Jas. B. Hinton. Jr, Jessie Cox, Monte Slaughter and Allen Chitty, five cases in all, were, on motion of the district attorney, dismissed. What the req sons were we do not know, but we are of the opinion that such actions will have no good effect on the rustling element of that county, and the coun- ty harbors number Of them.

Sterling, after divorce of two years, have again united under the old firm name of Kllgore X Sterling They have purchased 5000 sheep and leased township 2l-which embraces all of Garland Prairie, near Challen. der. Their past success in the sheer business, under most unfavorable con. ditions, is guarantee of success in the future.
 The Field and farm of Denver in q recent issue published an ex cellent picture of Hon. J " Wick CTS. of the eco company. That paper says that Mir Vickers has been active for a commission to better facilitate international cattle deal Ings between Mexico and this coun- try. He believes there are many complications on the boundary line that should be straightened out mutually.
