THE chestnut is not free from
enemies" Professor Davis re.
port states, "and the success of
cultivation in America will large
ly depend upon whether the In
sects which feed upon the nut
and bur can be controlled.
Sat present extensive expert.
ments are being made which aim
10 prevent the maturing of the
larvae in and near the orchard.
The weevil Is not the only insect
enemy, perhaps not the most 10.
furious. AT least two larvae feed
upon the bur or husk, and from
what we have seen during the
last two years these are the ones
to be especially feared. These
insects have not as yet been con.
trolled IN America.
''The best plan tried is to re-
move all chestnuts and burs from
the orchard AS socn as the nuts
are ripe. The burs are burned as
soon as the nuts are removed, and
the nuts are assorted, the defec.
tives ones being destroyed"
Horace Greeley advised young
men TO go West and grow up with
the country. This might now be
paraphrased

tie. Notice From Lawmakers


tie Notice From Lawmakers.
The farmer has always been in
politics, but usually it is as a par.
tlsan. On election day, bound by
the strange spell of tradition and
ASSOCIATION he votes with his par
ty. Neighbors whose interests
are identical, vote to,. opposite
parties and opposing candidates.
AS result how little thought is
given by the makers of platforms
and the trainers of laws TO the
interests and wants of the farm
er.
But party ties have little hold
on the representatives of corpor.
ate wealth and the monied inter
ests generally. Sentiment plays
10 part with them on electlol day.
They vote for what they want and
the statute books show the re-
suit. What the farmer needs Is
to know and trust his fellow farm
ers to learn what are their com
mon interests and to make his
ballot together with that of his
ueighbors form so emphatic a de.
mand that those interests dare
not be disregarded.

he realizes that against his better judgment he
really loves the wrong girl. and leaves to join
the Confederate army at the breaking out of the

a delightful touch of human girl nature in the

QU4INT SCOTTISH STORIES.
Some Quotations from the "Reminiscences"
of Sir Archibald Geikie.

The first visit to Glasgow IS a memorable
event in the lives Of those West Highlanders
who have never seen more people together than
at fair or a sacrament, or more houses than
make one of their little clachans. Donald's as
tonlshment at the crowded streets, the inter-
minable array of high houses, and the hustle
and swirl Of city life, has been chronicled in
many ludicrouS anecdotes. one or these may De
quoted as illustrative Of one aspect of CONNER
cial dealing. Many years ago newly arrived
Highlander was being shown the sights Of Glas-
Cow 10y a fellow countryman who had now got
used 10 them As they crossed street they
saw in the distance q dense crowd of people,
and the newcomer asked what it meant He
told that there was man being hanged.
He then inquired what they were hanging him
for. and he was told it was for sheep stealing.

me that a friend Of his had gone not long before
10 see the parish minister of Craigie near Kill

gagged, had turned into the churchyard, where
he sauntered past the sexton, who was at work
digging a grave AS the clergyman was de-
tained some time, the visitor walked to and fro
along the path. and at length noticed that the
sections eyes were pretty constantly fixed upon
him. At length he stopped and, address

refugee heroine and the dastardly English
roue-lieutenant villain who have all been
working overtime in so many stories OF THAI
much storied period The hero, who has been
brought up by Indians. and the heroine. who
has been brought up among them converse. dis
course rather, in set and rounded phrases that
never by any chance heard even among the
most affected people. The heroine, who has
lived all her life in the woods, with n decrepit
old man and an Indian squaw as her only COM
panions dons her mothers wedding dress and
attending the garrison ball, throws all the
proud British and local bellies into the shade
with her beauty and elegance.
The rest of the story be readily supplied
by recalling the incidents in other historical
novels OF the time. The treacherous half breed
to betray the hero, the midnight attack by Ind
ans the defenceless settlers. the hairbreadth
escape OF the hero and heroine in 4 canoe. re-
lieved by the death OF the detrimental father,
all are there A rather unnecessary complica-
ton in which the author has dared to trust to
his imagination rather than 10 his impressions
of previous literature, is that in which he causes
the heros long lost sister to fall in love with
him, and TO have the brother almost saduced
from his allegiance TO his little French sweet
heart by her physical attractions. Fortunately
for Mr.. Sprague, where bullets flying so
thick and fast II was easy to invent more
to give sister the coup de grace-a clumsy solu-
ton of unpleasant situation.

An English version of NJ. Bourgeois novel, "Un

the autumn. The Scrbners will bring 1t out.
This is to be taken, We presume, as indica-
tion that the volume of short stories published
by the same house for the same author has
proved success. We have wondered all along
what place could be found III America for The
work of novelist like NJ BOurget, and are not
