BUTTERFLIES foa LONDON PARKS.
Plan to Stock Pleasure Grounds With
Cauzy Creatures.

A scheme fer stocking London parks
with butterflies has recently been agitat-
ed, and it is by no means certain that
something of the kind may not seriously
be attempted. 1t is believed by some
well-informed authorities to be worth
trying. though undeniably there are seri-
Gus difficulties in the way.
One trouble lies in the fact that most
butterflies are more or less migratory in
habit, and this remark applies to nearly
all of the species commonly seen in
cities. Obviously. there would be no
usc in establishing colonies of these in
sects in urban pleasure grounds, if they
were likely to take unto themselves
wings in literal sense, or relnquishing
the larval condition, and to fly away.
To renew the stock annually wsuld be
expensive, and for other reasons out of
the question.
1t has been suggested that there are
some very pretty butterflies to which
this objection does not apply, and that
in the migratory category are found
the Vanessas-mediun,- sized insects of
notified celebration, black, white and red
dish brown Relatively speaking, they
are sedentary. and might be induced to
stay where they are put, if the sur
roundings were attractive and suitable.
Butterflies, like moths. are Matched
from eggs. make their first appearance
as caterpillars, and. after spinning CO.
coons. are finally transformed into the
beautiful winged adults. AS caterpillars
they feed on leaves, bat in the final stage
they suck the juice of flowers. AS a
rule, they hibernate as butterflies in hol-
low trees and other such places of con-
cealment.-SGtnrddy Evening Post.

NORTH CAROLINA CROPS.
The Gathering Season I'm Here With
Cotton Opening Rapidly.

The weather during the week was
vast improvement over that which
has prevailed during the past month.
To heavy rains and deficient insola-
ton succeeded clear days, cool
nights, and abundant sunshine. The
favorable conditions are shown by
the beneficial effects on all classes
of cultivated crops. The temperature
averaged about degrees daily above
the normal, while the rainfall was
deficient by about 0.15 inch for the
same time.
Cotton improved somewhat. but it
is feared that the evil effects of pre-
vious bad weather cannot be Offset.
The bolls are scattering and the
fields are very weedy Plants are red

Corn is a fair crop on uplands. Young
corn has improved and altogether the
outlook is more promising. The good
weather has been extremely favor.
able for the cutting and Guiding OF
| tobacco. Almost the entire crop has
been housed, the weed being bright
but light. The weather has been
most favorable for the saving of hay
and fodder and the work has been
rushed. Some fodder is affected with
the dry rot, but reports are gener-
ally favorable. Wheat threshing is
about over. Land is being prepared
for sowing as rapidly as the condf-
ton of the soil will permit. Some oats
have been sown during the week.
Turnips are coming up to a good
stand; much is being sown. The re-
ports concerning keanuts are not al
together satisfactory, the plants in
places growing too tall and not
spreading out enough. Field peas are
growing finely and it is said that in
some localities the yield will be the
finest made IN years. Sweet potatoes
are doing we'll and are most promis-
ing. Late cabbages are not plenti
full. The prospects for fruit have
somewhat improved.
