MaoIe Bark Louise.

We wish at this time to call the
attention of our readers to the cottony
scale OF the maple, known also as the
maple bark louse." We have no.
ticed that this insect has been doing
much damage in Illinois for several
years and that in the main people let
the pest alone till it is too late to take
eHectlVe measures against it. This is
one OF the easiest insects to fight if
taken in time, because it's rate OF
spread from tree to tree is very slow,
due to the fact that the males. only,
have wings and can fly. The females
have to be carried on the feet of birds
or be blown by the wind from one tree
to another and there are but few days
in the year when even this can occur.
After the female becomes fixed in
position with beak inserted in the
tree she cannot move about. The
problem is simply to know the bark
louise when it is seen and take pre-.
cautions to pick off the little balls of
cotton as soon as they appear on
tree. Usually only very few appear
on one tree during one season, and il
these are removed the insects cannot
spread. 1t is the neglect of this that
causes trouble. Each female lays per.
haps 1000 eggs, and the next year
these hatch out about 1000 females,
and In this way it takes but few
years to cover tree so thoroughly
that there is no saving it.

mer, walk about actively as soon as
| born and then settle along the mid.
veins Of the leaves and sometimes on
tWlgs. It is at this time that spray.
| ing with kerosene emulsion will kill
them, and Professor Forbes tells the
writer that a heavy stream of water
thrown from hose with good power
| behind it will knock them off the tree
| and result in their destruction through
their inability to get back
+ After several moults we have the
male insects with wings and the fe
males without wings. The males die
late in the summer and the females
live over winter. The egg laying be-
gins about the middle of May and
continues till some time in July. After
the egg-laying period is completed the
female dies, leaving the eggs covered
with the cottony mass that is to pro
tect them till next spring. These
masses are so obvious that it is not
difficult to discover them, when OF
course they should be removed. The
simplest way to fight the insect is
to collect the colonies of eggs and
destroy them, but this will have to be
| done for two or three years on trees
that are badly infested, as many
young scales will have been already
fixed on the tree.-Farmers Review.

walls -and proceeded to the outer

walls -and proceeded to the outer
door of the main hall @a-. @s54<a i < 7. n.
The door, stood wide open, and tho
sunlight of almost midday beamed
brightly into the hall.
'Now, locked that door myself last
night" growled Bashfort, as he saw
the open door. $50. Martha must be
astir, as she should be-for, by my
faith, 1t is nearly noon. What's this ?"
And as he asked himself the ques-
tion, his eyes fell upon the blanket and
veil which Clarence had left in the
open space between the inner gateway
and the hall door.
Bashfort stalked out into the open
air and examined the articles.
"This is one of the blankets I gave
Martha for the young ladys bed!-and
this? Why, this is bridal veil!-the
one she had on when brought here.
Martha!"
'And here Bashfort beloved the
name of his wife with all the strength
Of his lungs.
But he heard no reply except the
echo Of his own voice among the ruins.
"Where is shetland what is she
doing? Martial"
And here his eyes fell upon the fad
ed bridal wreath, near the gateway of
the middle wall.
"What's this?'' he growled, picking
up the wreath. "Oh, the wreath that
was on the young lady's head. Why is
it here? Martial"
And again only echoes replied to his
shout.
Then, as he strobe through the mid
die gateway and looked ahead, he saw
the white satin slipper which Clarence
had left just within the archway of the
outer of the three walls.
*'Ha! slipper!-one of the slippers
the young lady had on when Why,
what's that on the cliff? A pillow!"
growled Bashfort, hurrying from the
gateway to where Clarence had left
the pillow.
"'Sflames! what does all this
mean?" said Bashfort, picking up the
pillow. "Why, this is the one that
gave to Martha for the young lady's
bed! Martha! Where the deuce is
that woman?-and what has she been
at to lug these things about and leave
them scattered around? Ha! what is
that?"
And here he spied Helen's other
slipper cleaning in the sunshine,
where Clarence had left it's toe impris-
oned under a stone, just at the verge
of the cliff
Bashfort hurried to it, stared at it;
grew suddenly cold and pale; peered
down over the edge of the steep cliff !;
saw something white lodged and flut-
tering about a hundred feet below, on
a ledge of rock that jutted from the
face of the cliff, and muttered:
Good heavens! begin to fear that
the young lady escaped from her room,
delirious, and tripping over this stone,
lost her slipper and her balance at the
same instant, and pitched headlong
over the cliff.
Filled with CONSERVATION at this
thought, he fled back to the house,
shouting "Martha!" at every step.

QUEER PAIR OF CHUMS.
Razor Back Hog and Pointer Dog on
Best of Terms

Ireland is full of pigs and pig stories,
but America can beat her at both.
There is plantation on the Eastern
shore Of Maryland where old methods
prevail. The horn blows for dinner at
high noon, and among those who until
recently never failed to respond was a
strangely assorted couple-a pig and a
pointer. The pig was bought for the
larder, a long-legged, gray pinkeyed
razorback with an enormous snout,
His head was so heavy that it over
balanced his hinder parts, rendering

so that he could root. Dan, the point

Why He Wasn't Born.

A strapping lad of twelve was regis
tered in one of the public schools of
Philadelphia. He readily gave the
several facts called for, but he did
not know whether his birthday fell
on the 10th of November or Decem-
ber.
The principal was surprised at this
display of ignorance on the part of so
old a child, and he asked hiw it came
to pass that he hadn't learned the date
of his birth. II wasn't BORN" said the
boy. II had a stepmother." ."-Lippin-
