How Parker Passed the Day.

ESOPUS, n. Y, July 6.-At his home
in Rosemont, Judge Parker passed the
day quietly. Occasionally he received
a message by telephone from ST. Louis
and in that way kept posted on the
moves made there. The judge still re-
fuses to discuss politicis in any form
and has intimated that should he be
nominated he will not break his silence
until he has been notified of his nomi-
nation by the committee. Parker arose
early this morning and took his GUS
tomary plunge in the Hudson and at
respondence, went driving with friends

TALKS ON INSECT PESTS.
X.--Cut-worms.
Editors Progressive Farmer:
Robson Co.. NO.

Editors progressive Farmer:
Cut-worms seem to have been unusually destruc-
tive this spring and this increased activity is no
doubt due to a considerable extent to the cool
weather. Experienced gardeners tell me that they
are usually worse in such seasons. In my own
garden, which is very small, they have cut off a
number of tomatoes, onions, pears, and cabbage,
the latter especially. They have also been report
ed to me by correspondents as destroying tobacco,
and one grower says that his Irish potatoes are
being quite seriously injured. This was news to
me, as l had never known potatoes to be bothered
by cut-worms; but as they seem to have been quite
abundant everywhere, and as my correspondent
seems to be quite accurate, l have not the least
doubt that his report is correct.
Now there are very many different species of
cut-worms, all Matching from the eggs of moths.
Many of the cut-worms (Which are the larvae of
the moths) are so much alike that they can scarce
ly be distinguished, while the adult moths may be
easily separated into different species. While
it is true that there are very many species, still
there are certain species which are usually more
abundant and destructive than others, and some
of these have been given common names as:
"The CLASSY cut-worm, % "the dark-sided cut-worm,"
"the greasy cut-worm," etc., according to their
appearance. In our garden there seemed to be
but one species, and we have not yet had it identi-
fed.
The adult moths are on the wing most abund-
antly in early summer, during June and early
July, and are frequently to be seen flying about
lights. AS already stated, there are. many species,
but as a rule. the front wings are gray or brown
while the hind wings are almost transparent,
white or with a pinkish tinge. The moths lay
their eggs on growing vegetation, mostly in grass
lands. The larvae, Matching from these eggs, go
beneath the surface, resting during the day and
crawling from plant to plant and feeding at night.
By winter they are only partly grown and be-
come dormant until spring when they become
active again. Now you can easily see that if you
break up sod land in the spring and plant it in
garden crops, you have, already on hand, a hun
cry horde of these cut-worms waiting for your
vegetables to come up when they will be i'm
mediately attacked. My garden was not cultivat-
ed last year Ct was not in this house them, so
that it offered a good place for the moths to lay
eggs. After feeding for a few weeks in the
| spring, the larvae become full-grown, descend
deeper into the ground and change to the pupa

(a) Larva, which does the damage; (f) pupa,
next stage after the larva; (h) adult moth, which
lays eggs; (b, C, d and e) other details of struc-
ture.
Now it should be borne in mind that the cut
worm of it's own choice would no doubt prefer
to feed upon grasses rather than vegetables. If
the land where they are is put into cultivation,
then their food is destroyed and they have no
choice but starve, or attack the ~lants which you
put there. This has a very IMPORTANT bearing on
the question of remedies,
The most logical way to avoid cut-worm injury
is not to plant garden crops in land just from
sod, but provided there are cut-worms in the soil,
any or all of the following methods may be used to
forestall their injuries:
Chickens.-f the domestic fowls are, or can
be, encouraged to follow the gardener as he plows
or cultivates they will pick up many of the cut
woms. The same suggestion will apply to wild
birds.
Wrapping.-We are told that cut-worm injury
can be largely avoided by wrapping the base of
the plants before they are set out. This certainly
seems reasonable. 1t would doubtless be well to
use some soft material like tissue, Or toilet paper,
which will ~decompose and drop off after awhile
~ ~ OAoO SAA4O C"S A0Aoo "A nv AOOO "S -
lection. The wrapping should extend from where
the roots begin to one or two inches above the
surface of the ground.
Digging Out.-This was the only method which
we employed this year, although next we expect to
use the wrapping, and the bait method, next
described. Each individual cut-worm no doubt
destroys a good many plants; therefore, when we
find a cut plant if we will at once dig about the
root we will often Eyes, usually find the worm,
and by killing it we prevent further damage. We
have no doubt that we saved many plants by this
practice. Under this same head We may say that
one should also watch closely for the worms when
hoeing in the garden.
Poisoned Bait.-This is the method which is
usually practiced in large cabbage or tobacco
fields: Mix thoroughly one-half pound of paris
green with twenty-five pounds OF wheat bran.
Stir together until every particle of the bran will
have some grains of the poison on it. Now stir
one quart of molasses into about two gallons of
water, pour it over the bran and stir until it is well
mixed. Now add water enough to bring the whole
to a thick mash SO that it can be handled without
dripping. This poisoned material is then drop
ped along the rows close to-, but not exactly IN,
the places where the plants are to be set. The
worms eat it in preference to the plants. Of
course chickens and other valuable animals must
not be allowed to get at it. We have seen as
bait. 1t is better to have the dose shaded in some
way to prevent rapid drying out. This may be
done by applying at dusk in large areas, or by
covering with leaves in gardens. One handful in
a place is sufficient.
For use in small areas, the green would be used
at the rate of one ounce to three pounds bran
with molasses and water to suit.

APPL YING FOR A LICENSE.
Two Young Men From Beaver in
Cedar Wanting License
for Saloon.

Despite the emphatic manner in
which the citizens here declared them
selves at the last municipal election. the
mayor and city council have been asked
to grant to two young men from Bea'
yer the right to begin the liquor traffic
again in our city. There is no doubt
that some people among us strongly
favor the licensing Of this evil, and
while 1t is not at all likely that any of
the city council would listen with the
least degree of favor to any application
for the restoration of the nuisance, yet
1t is quite possible that there are Office
holders in Cedar who, II they had their
way, would tavor the granting OF this
license We are informed that the mayor
was approached by these Beaver par
ties who offered his honor six hundred
dollars for license for one year, but
that Mr.. Middleton told them not for
two thousand dollars would. he grant
any such application. IL is said thas
they then made application to the coun-
ty commss oners for license to sell
within the county, but that owing to
their failure to specify the place at
which they expected to carry on the
business the application was not grant
ed. The intention was it is said to
have erected saloon in the mouth of
Cedar canyon outside of the municipal
limits, which only extend to somewhere
near a line with the grist mill.
