DEATH TO PLANT PARASITES
EVEN IN AUTUMN THEY MAY KILL
TREES AND VINES.
AntidOtes That May BE Prepared and
suggestions for Getting Rid OF
Dangerous Insects.
Written for The Evening Star.

Written for The Evening Star.
Paris green, Scheele's green and London
purple, all of arsenica1 origin, are the
things wherewith to conquer the myrlads
of garden insects. Most of these lnsects
live by eating or sucking young leaves'
vines and stems Such as the squash bug,
potato beetle and grasshopper quickly XIII
themselves If given the chance. To give
them the chance, mix half pound OF the
poison powder with half pound OF Hour
and pound of sifted Stacked lime. Tie 1t
in a cheesecloth bag and dust the plants
well while dew is On them or just after
rain. The poison vanshes in fifteen to
twenty days-beside, if it did not, one
would have to eat a whole barrel OF the
cabbage at one sitting in order to get
enough arsenic for discomforting dose.
Bordeaux Mixture.-Dissolve a pound OF
blue vitriol in five gallons of water, stirring
well that no Jumps may be left MIX
POUND of powdered unSacked lime with
water enough to bring it to the consistency
of creamy milk. Stir well, strain out any
grit and mix slowly with the vitriol; turn
all into four gallons more of water. Ihls Is
to be SPRAYED or sprinkled finely upon
shrubs and trees afflicted with rust or any
sort of fungous growth. If there are IN
sectS as well, some form of arsenic poWaer
may be added to the mixture. Whlch must
be constantly stirred while the sprinkling
goes forward Bordeaux mixture, indeed, is
standard and sovereign for grape rot, mold,
mildew and scabby rust. Apply to grape
vines as soon as the fruit sets, so as to
prevent even the appearance of evil. A later
application when the berries are half grown
brings them to ripening sound and perfect.
Kerosene Emulsion.-Put into big jar
half a gallon of kerosene and one quart of
buttermilk Stir hard with a wooden pad
dle-the harder the better In five minutes
the emulsion should begin to swell and
grow thick and buttery. If sweet milk must
be used turn it sour with vinegar before
putting in the Oil For winter use on out
door things dip a sponge in the emulsion
and go lightly over bark and branches.
Never use the emulsion full strength upon
any green and growing thing. Mix it with
fifteen or twenty times it's own bulk of
lukewarm water when it is to be used as
a spray. Thus used, it is sure death to
plant lice and all sorts of soft-bodied suck
ling things. For banishing red spiders stir
a little sulphur-an ounce to the Quart-into
the emulsion then dilute with twenty parts
water. Do the spraying or sprinkling as
close possible, since it stays on longer
then.
Bisulphide of Lime-This is equally valu-
able against plant lice. To make it mix
half a pound of flower of sulphur with a
half a pound of quicklime, cover the mix
ture with boiling water and boil for at least
smelling liquid results. Dilute this liquid
with one hundred times it's bulk of warm
water and use as either wash or a spray

Rice VS.. Potatoes.

FROM the Augusta tGa) chronicle
The shortness of the potato crop at the
north and the unprecedentedly high prices
for the tubers have drawn attention to the
comparative merit of other food, notably
corn and rice. 1t would be a wholesome
thing for the north if this scarcity of a fa-
rice to their menu and benefit them corre-
known the value of rice, and the southern
and south Atlantic states, appreciate it SO
much, along with corn grits and cornbread.
that no meal is considered complete with
out it. 1t is excellent with butter or gravy
and a superior addition to soup. 1t can be
converted into most palatable and nutri-
tious desserts. Cornbread, corncake and
corn grits are southern dishes. On hog and
hominy the negro maintains his great mus
Gle and the white man thrives in this sec
tion. AS much depends upon cooking, at
tention must be paid to these matters. AS
a rule the northern people know how to
prepare potatoes for the table and south
ern people do not. The northern cook makes
the potatoes mealy and delectable the orGi-
nary southern cook converts it into hard,
soggy indigeStible mass. The northern cook
turns rice into glue and imperilS it's palata-
bility; the southern cook brings 1t to
dry and succulent condition. We of the
south should learn to cook potatoes prop
erly and the northern folk should learn how
to manipulate rice. The ladies who go
about teaching at cooking schools might
become patriotic as well as gastronomic
missionaries if they at once began a cam
paign of education east and west.

Water for London.

From the National Review.
The water companies, as we know by
painful experience, find it harder and hard
er to meet the ever-increasing demand.
Their draughts on the Thames cannot go
on indefinitely augmenting, seeing that in
June, 1899, only 15S,OOJ, 900 gallons were left
by them in the river to pass over Tedding-
ton Weir, though legally 200, ,OO0, 900 gallons
is the minimum permissible. The popula-
ton in the Thames valley and the demands
upon that river for water outside the Lon
don area are increasing every year, yet
now the Thames in a dry summer below
Teddington Weir is little better than
malodorous sewer. Nor can deep wells in
the chalk be drawn upon indefinitely The
pumping operations in the Lea and Colne
valleys steadily lowering the level of
the wells in the Chilterns, and depriving
poor agricultural district of it's water.
Streams which used to run all the year
have now vanished, or only flow inter-
mittently. 1t is the same to the south of
the Thames Yet it is neither wisdom nor
justice to deprive poor country districts of
their water At the same time water fam
ines in the metropolis are becoming more
frequent, and the quality of the water sup
piled leaves much to be desired.
The proposed scheme of going to Wales Is
not satisfactory. In the first place, it is
very doubtful if the water is there in the
quantity that will be required. The best
water-producing areas have been already
appropriated by Liverpool and Birmingham.
In the second place South Wales is an in
dustrial country with a fast multiplying
population, and unless it's manufactures
suffer great setback, it may need all the
water 1t possesses. The instinct is per-
fectly sound and rational which leads the
WelShman to oppose the scheme. The only
moral justification for London in taking
the water would be that it would never be
needed by the Welsh themselves.

Science and Eating,

FROM the Woman's Home Companion.
Just for conscience's sake a word or two
must be added in justification of the folly
or eating and drinking all of these things
because they are pleasing to both eve and
palate. We are ever willing to eat what
we should, providing II is palatable. but no
amount OF science will overcome the idio-
syncrasies of taste. Therefore IL Is delight
ful TO know that many of the things we
crave are just the things We need The
scientists tell us that tea and coffee are not
only harmless but helpful. If we don't be-
gin 10 drink them until We are thirty and
II We don't pay less than 30 cents a pound
Gomez has recently escaped from the lat
ter ban, for very good brand may now be
bought for less than 25 cents. Another i'm
portant point to remember is that If we
would live long and prosper neither coffee
nor tea should be drunk unless the grounds
are removed within at least ten minutes
after making. Coffee, II boiled at all should
be boiled quicklyc but tea should never be
boiled A certain amount of sugar is nee
essary to keep the human system amiable;
therefore. IL the sweets and drinks suggest
ed here be moderately indulged in the par
takers thereof will live to come again and
1 shall be permitted to write another story.

Chartreuse Liqueur.

rom the ran Mall
The Grande Chartreuse, l read, has sold
the right of purveying it's famous liqueurs
to a syndicate. Hitherto lay brother has
been at the head of this business. Until
comparatively recent times the signature
Of the Rev. Pere GARNER on the label was
ihe guarantee the purchaser required of
the authenticity of the contents of the
flask which the gastronomer likes to find
convenient at his elbow at the coffee and
cigarette stage of his repast. Pere GARNER
was an extremely shrewd man of business
and more than enc law suit bears evidence
to the care with which he watched over
the financial interests of his society, and
the praiseworthy promptness he evinced in
coming down upon the falsifier and the
forger
When he died not many years ago, his
place was difficult to fill. Hence, per-
haps. the present arrangement Something
of the kind had already been under con-
sideration. ] hear the price the Char
treuse asked is put at S0,O00OO0 francs
There are four varieties of the liQueur
though two only are familiar. There Is the
Elixir, which was once to be bought on the
spot in wood-cased bottles at the eauya-
lent of four-and-nine There is the Liqueur
Nerte, In the pint t-and-a-half bottle, the
local charge for which was three-and-
eight. and the charge in London, say, four
times that figure. There is the Lfaueur
Jaune. less potent, which has cost me two
aLd-six the regulation flask in the Char
treuse lodge. And there is the Liaueur
Blanche. otherwise the Balm of the Char
treuse," which used to be locally retailed
at the same price as the Liqueur Verte
Some fifty plants, seeds and flowers YOU
are TO understand go to the compilation OF
these delectable drinks, the chief being the
first shoots of the pine, mountain pink
mint, balm, thyme, angelica-and worm
wood. There is, in fact, good deal more
absinthe in green Chartreuse than is com
monty supposed.

The Giant RedyyOOds.
From the Atlantic.


The big tree is natures forest MASTER
piece and, as far as 1 know, the greatest
of living things. 1t belongs to an ancient
stock, as it's remains in old rocks show, and
has a strange air Of other days about 1t,
thoroughbred lock, inherited from the long
ago. the auld lang syne of trees. The Pa
cific coast in general is the paradise of
conifers. Here nearly all Of them are
giants. and display a beauty and magnifi-
cence unknown elsewhere. The climate is
mild the ground never freezes, and mois-
ture and sunshine abound all the year
Nevertheless, 1t is not easy to account for
the colossal size of the sequoias The largest
are about 300 feet high and thirty in dame
ter. Who Of all the dwellers of the plains
and prairies and fertile home forests of
round-headed oak and maple, hickory and
elm, ever dreamed that earth could bear
such growths s?-trees that the familiar
pines and frs seem to know nothing about,
lonely, silent, serene, with a physiognomy
almost godlike, and so old, thousands of
them still living had counted their years
by tens Of centuries when Columbus set sail
from Spain, and were in the vigor of youth
or middle age when the star led the Chal-
dean sages to the infant Savior's cradle
AS far as man is concerned, they are the
same yesterday, today and forever en-
blems of permanence.
