shells. with the cast skins at the
smaller ends. They are brown in
color. Underneath scale will be
found cluster of yellowish-whitish
eggs, plainly to be seen through an
ordinary magnifying glass. The scales
are about one-eighth inch in length, or
smaller, and they usually cluster to-
gether as shown in Fig. l. Found
most frequently on the lilac; fond
also Of the silver maple.
About the middle OF May (later or
earlier, according to latitude) the
eggs under the scales hatch into tiny
lice which appear as mere specks to
the unaided eye. These lice, for a
few days, move around on the bark,
sucking the sap, and growing more
robust each day. Finally. they get
that home feeling" decide to settle
down, and begin to build scaly roof
of their own, overhead.
The remedies for this pest are.
First, give the tree a tonic and good
rundown. Fertilizers, pruning and
cultivation will help the tree to better
general health; and brisk scrubbing
of trunk and main limbs with very
stin brush or scraper, will get rid Of
many of the scales. An old broom
with the brush cut short makes an
excellent scrubbing implement. Keep
It wet with whale-oil soap solution.
Then, sometimes in May, watch for
the hatched-out lice. When they ap-
pear, get out the spray pump and
thoroughly spray the entire tree with
whale-oil soap solution, made as fol-
lows: Dissolve one pound Of whale
oil soap in gallon Of hot water. and
dilute with about six gallons Of cold
water
| Another scale insect, that may be
classed with the oyster-shell bark
louise so far as its economic impor-
tance Is concerned, is the scurfy bark
louise of the pear and apple. This
scale Gig. p is white in color, and.
like the oyster-shell pest, is most
apt to work on poorly fertilized and
poorly cultivated trees.
The scurfy scale is readily recog-
nized on account Of its whitish. cotton
like appearance. and its oblong shape.
The eggs beneath the scales are in
clusters, purplish in color. and they
hatch out at about the same time as
the oyster-shell eggs.
The remedy is as follows: Same
as for oyster-shell bark-louse. In the
opinion Of the Farm Journal there is
no better remedy for all scale insects
than the lime and sulphur spray.
Those who used It on their trees last
month are all right. But now that
tree growth is beginning, it is safer
and easier to fight oyster-shell and
scurfy scales with whale-oil solution.

CUTTING INTO OUR MARKETS
Italian Manufacturers Putting Forth
Efforts to Build Up Trade in
Philippines.

Consul Dunning reports to the bu-
reau of manufactures from Milan on
the methods of Italian manufacturers
in building up their trade in the Phil
ippine islands. Lombardy shipped
$3.50 in goods to Manila in 1903, 81, 900
in 1904, and for the six months ending
December. 1905. the shipments from
Milan to the Philippines amounted to
over $4,000. Every article sent by the
Italians, the report says, is being made
in the United States, including hats,
paper. cottons, umbrellas, boots, milk,
macaroni. paint hemp. lamps, medi-
cines, preserves, linen, soap. pottery,
and wearing apparel. Many OF the
Manila" hats coveted by travellers and
collectors, the consul adds. are made
in Milan and shipped into the east by
the gross.
American shoes" are also made in
Italy. Vice-Consul Schlemmer writes
rom Mannheim, Germany. that he Wis
tied a number Of shoe stores in that
city. which advertised American shoes.
Some of the merchants admitted that
their stocks were from Milan. One Of
the shoe store managers was an TIA
lian, who said he saw no reason why
4 american shoes should not be made in
Italy just as well as in Massachusetts,.

HINTS FOR oRcHARnrsTs.

Keeping the orchard clean helps
greatly to eliminate troubles from in
sects and blights. which are helped BY
rubbish about an orchard.
Spraying has now been practiced for
about 25 years and has become recogl

weapons in combating both insects
and blight germs.

MIsoUoTED PHRASES.

Do you know that the word dude
comes from the English word "duds,
which means clothes? Hence, dude
is one very fond Of clothes.
Do you know that the expression
Sure as eggs is eggs" was never
meant to be as ungrammatical as it
sounds? The original was sure as x

Do you know why people say 'I
slept like top?" They should say. |
slept like a toupe, for toupe is the
French word for dormouse, an animal
given to sound and long sleeping.
Do you know why fooIscap paper is
SO called? When Charles | was king
OF England, only certain people were
allowed to manufacture paper, and it
all bad TO bear the royal arms. Parli-
ament made sport of the law, and or
dered FOOLS cap and bells to be used
instead.
Do you know the origin Of the
phrase "Up Salt River?" Before steam,
navigation along the Ohio was carried
on by flatboats. which were rowed up
stream. This was particularly hard
work. especially up Salt river, a dam
gerous, crooked branch of the Ohio
river In Kentucky. When slaves were
to be punished, this was common
method employed by their owners.
Hence. at election times, people refer
to sending the defeated candidates
up Salt River" as penalty.

When some one sings little song.
And asks you what you think about IT,
Do not reply, with face drawn long.
1T may be good. but yet doubt it,
For every simple note that swells
With hope. and Joy, and gladness ringing,
WIN reach some heart where sorrow
dwels,
And echo there its voice Of singing.
When some one does little deed.
And you. perchance. observe the action,
Do not conclude with thoughtless speed
That 1t will gain no sweet attracuon:
For blessed deeds. like balls of snow
Kept rolling on through life's rough
weather.
Enlarge their fullness as they go.
Until they bind the world together.
When some one lifts whispered prayer
From mothers knee. or gilded altar,
Doubt not that God is waiting there
To hear the lips that lisp. or falter;
But know. o man, so proud and blind,
So full Of doubt and cold misgiving,
These little gems. which all may find.
Make earth a heaven, and life worth liv-
ing.

tries are of almost equal popularity.
Hutson & Sons exhibit from their
pony farm near Union is popular
resort for the little folks.

crowd shows the whole process of hon

insects are shown at work in the comb
of the honey, the demonstration points
out to inquirers the queen bee, and the
demonstration is new to many.
The fancy work department has won
many compliments not alone because
of the excellence OF the display, but be-
cause of the manner in which it has
been arranged and handled by the SUI
perintendent. Miss nklles Classen, of
Green Mountain. Fair officials declare
it is the best arranged exhibit in the
hall
The paintings and drawings Of the
amateur classes in the art department
occasion surprise and wonder. Mar

be the homes of anany promising anna

knowledge is technical the work COM
pares very favorably with that of the
professionals.

larger and more perfect in form and
coloring than that exhibited at the
