BaQ-Worms.

Frequent enquiries are received re-
garding the ''bag-worm" whose pecu-
liar sacs or bags are frequently seen
during the winter attached to various
trees and other objects. II these sacs
are examined. some will be found to
contain large number of eggs within
mass of yellow funny material. The
empty cases are the ones that were
occupied by the male during the past
growing season while the larger ones,
containing the mass OF eggs. were
the abode OF the females The females
in fact never leave the cases and after
fertilization by the small male moths.
the eggs are formed as already de-
scribed, From these eggs are hatched.
in the spring. the larvae that begin
feeding on the leaves OF trees at once
and soon form about themselves the
bag that is enlarged as the larvae
mature until 1t becomes too large for
them to carry. Then 1t is attached to
the limb while the larvae is eating
and is moved to another place when
the food supply is there exhausted.
Every one OF these cases should be
removed from the trees during the
winter and burned as otherwise the
larvae are certain to destroy a good
number of shade trees in the spring

Fruit STORAGE.

Some sort of storage facilities are
almost indispensable in the manage
ment of the fruit business for profit,
They allow fruit to be carried over a
season of glut, and SO help the grow
er. even though the storage be owned
by the speculator and be operated in
his interest. Fruit storage is most
useful to the fruit grower. however.
when It is kept in his own possession.
or at least within his own manage
ment. for 1t makes him in greater
or less degree independent OF the
buyer and speculator-often remark
ably SO. 1t may be safely said that
the fruit business cannot be conducted
on large scale except with few of
the more perishable fruits. without
adequate provision for storage. either
on the growers own premises or in
rented storage roomS.-Prof. F. A.

seeds OF canada ThIstles.

A bulletin OF the. Department OF
agriculture says: Tho Canada this.
tie spreads over large areas or trav.
els long distances by means OF its
seeds. 1t spreads into patches by
means of its perennial running roots.
Both OF these means are effective In
their way. Perfect seeds are not
often produced till after the plants
have become well-establishec and
hive spread to some extent by the
running roots. In some localities in
Wisconsin and Iowa close observa-
tion of the plants for several years
has failed to discover perfect seeds.
The plants appear TO be somewhat err
ratio in this respect. In 1894 very
few perfect seeds were found at
Washington. while in 1895, nearly
all of the plants bore perfect seeds.
though such were produced by less
than half of the flowers In each head.
In 1896 the plants were again seed
less. All three seasons were exceed
ingly dry for this region. In 1899. an
abnormally wet season in Washing
ton. they were seedless. and no seed
lings were found in the spring of 1900.
There were no apparent fungous or in
sect enemies to account for failure
to produce seeus.

s. g. Soverhill, at meeting of ILL
nois fruit growers. said: Grapes
should be planted about twelve feet
arart each way, and between the rows.
one way. plant a row OF raspberries.
| have practiced this for the last ten
years and grapes and berries have
both done well. shading the ground
the latter part of the season, SO that
cultivating in the spring as soon as
the ground is in condition to work
and cultivate about once week. SO as
to keep the ground mellow and free
from weeds. | never allow weeds OF
grass to grow among my grapes and
berries. A horse and flnetooth cult
yator do the most OF the work, and
very little hoeing or wedding is neces-
sery; just a little close around the
roots. | can set my cultivator wide
or narrow, SO as to run close to the
rows.
| have my berries staked and one
wire two and one-half feet high ON
each side or the row, so that they
do not hinder the cultivation of the
grapes at any season of the year that
1t Is necessary to cultivate. For my
grapes set posts twelve feet apart,
In the center between the vines. The
posts are eight and one-half feet long,
set two feet in tho ground and six and
one-half feet auove. Be sure and get
good posts at each end OF the row. Cut
a notch in the top OF the first post and
one near the ground In the second

center posts need not be so good, rs
1t is very little work to replace one,
pull four staples and the wires are all
loose. use hedge posts now and do
not think will ever have to replace
any of them. / never saw one rottec

seIeetlna Juda.s of Swine.

w. G. Huey says: In the selection
of the judge. the exhibitors of each
breed of swine should have a voice
in selecting the judge or judges OF
their respective breeds. No one man
should push himself like an autocrat
and dictate who should be judge of
the various breeds, and do so over the
protest of the exhibitors, The ex-
hibitors or breeders of each breed of
swine should be consulted In the Sc
lection OF their judge. And after a
fair expression of opinion OF the
breeders of the various breeds has
been secured as to their choice for
judge, the judges for the various
breeds should be selected and their
names published 60 days previous 20
the opening of the fair. The swine
show at the Illinois State Fair is the
royal of America. and the State Board
of Agriculture should make ample
provision for the comforts and con-
venience Of the exhibitor and the e1-
hibit, and to see to 1t that Judges
are selected that are competent TO
rightfully place the awards. and will
do SO with clean hands.
