As it is duriug this season oft ho year that this scourged the delicious plum com mits Its greatest depredation, there ■till remains opportunity to try tho reme dy of Mr. John S. Fitzhugh, ol Texas, as detailed in JJ ane and Farm, lie says rub the bodies of the trees with common soft soap,slightly diluted with warm watffi'. This, on his own discovery that the cur culio beetle does not fly up into the trees as generally believed, hut that it crawls up the trunk. This should be done about the time the trees are ready to oast their flowers, and to meet th * appei ranee of the young fruit: but it is by no means certain that the beetle Is not constantly deposit ing its eggs in the plum m long as there are green fruit upon the trees. If so. the fruit yet uupierced may be saved if it is true that the insect crawls up the trunk instead of flying. As at tention is now called to this matter we hope others will make close observation, •with the view or verifying or refuting the theory of Mr.Fitzhugh. Seventeen Kinds of Bogus Butter. There are seventeen patents on imita tion butter. The letters patent state that the following ingredients are used in making imitation dairy products: Sugar of lead, bisulphatc of lime, saltpeter, borax, boracic acid, salicylic acid, orris root, cottonseed oil, vegetable oils, bitaric acid,bicarbonate of soda, nitrate of po tassa, glveerine,capsylic acid, alum, cap sicacid, sulphite ol soda, cow’s udder, commercial sulphuric acid, pepsin, sal soda, tallow, lard, sea salt, farinaceous flour, buthric ether, caustic potash, car bonic acid, sulphuric acid, castor oil, chalk, slippery elm bark, caul, oil of se same, oit of sunflower seeds, olive oil, cur cumine,turnup seed oil, broma cbloralum, chlorate of potash, nitre, oil of sweet al monds, of peanuts, peroxide of man- ' ganese, stomach of pigs, sheep or oaH. ni trate of soda, bennie oil, gastric juice mustard seed oil, nitric acid, dry blood al bumen, sugar, butyric acid, bicarbonate of ■potash, chloride of sodium, caustic soda, sods, corn starch, coloring matter. Painter Try This. A few days ago we looked oo at a pain ter In his vigorous efforts but slow prog ress In removing an old crusty coat ol paint from an immense iron door shutter. His method was to soften it with a small flame from burning alcohol or other combustible fluid, issuing from the snout of a tin can, and then chiseling it off. It was slow, difficult work Imperfectly exe cuted. Thinking to do him a favor l>y shortening his labor, we suggested the following: Black three pounds of quiok lime in water and add one pound of pearl ash making the whole Into the consistence of paint, whioh put on in the same way.and let it remain from twelve to fourteen hours. The old paint will then be easily scraped off. But be said “no, I will get on this way, though it is a hard job and takes time.” Herbert Spencer says the primitive man Is very loth to change his habits and cus toms, and that it is difficult to introduce any new thing among the masses even in civilized societies. To Break lip a Hitter. Never under auy consideration scare your fowls, even should they be found in the flower bed, for fowls and flowers should be kept separate to begin with, and always treat your birds gently. Alltbat is needed is imprisonment in a strange place. A few days’ rest in this way does the fowl good, and sne will re turn to her laying greatly benefltted. Bear in mind that this is an effort at repioduo tion, and this very obstinacy marks a first class sitter which you prized so highly early in the season. Besides this, the rough treatment is liable to cause perma nent Injury, and the disabling of even sne choice fowl will make a difference In your feelings that outweighs all pecuni ary considerations, it you are fit to own a domestic animal of any kind. This question depends for an answer so much on the circumstances of the soil as not to admit of a verv dclinite answer. Mr.Schell, of Little Kalis, N. Y., esti mates that tho land iu pasturage and requisite for the support of a cow is three acres; an I this is the estimate of Mr. Carrington for modern good dairy r&rma in England. In Belgium ten acres or land support* two cows, one heifer, and sne yearling calf, but when the calves are sold off young ami cows in full milk only are kept, the proportion is to cows to acres. Coleman estimates three acres f pasturage as requisite for a cow in Berkshire county. Mass., while in some townstw ißcresare sufficient. Mr. Farrington, in the report or the American Dairymen’* Association, thinks i •n nn average 4 acre* are required per 1 now for summer and winter keep; while the late Prof. X. A. Willard, though that in Herkimer county, N Y., V/i or 2 acre* of pasture per cow would answer, and in i lone exceptional cases 1 acre. Dr. Tefft, President or tbo Illinois Dairymen’s As- ' aociatlon. recently lmtorrued the writer that in Illinois he considered from to 'A acres about what would be required. Tne doctor is a practical farmer and is the owner of a very line dairy, but bis statement seems a li< tie wild when we re fer to the fact that Mr. Lord, an English dairyman, keepe 100 cows on 300 acree, betide* tbo borsee necessary for farm work, while the Ottoman Bros., near El gin, keeps 84 cows and the requisite num ber of borses to do farm work on 200 acre*. They uto ensilage in place of Use plenty of whitewash in the poultry bouse now. A* tho warm weather ap proaches the lice wilt appear unless pi e* cautions are taken to avoid tbs vermin.

Annual manures are preferable; they ought to double the invesini nt. Soluble bones and Peruvian guano will square up the accounts with 100 percent. to >ave all homemade man ure possible. Manipulate your land with vegetable i mold. I Plow deep, rotate your crops and rest ! vour lauds. * There is only so much corn and cotton in any manure, and the sooner you get it the better. There Is only material enough in any land to make a given quantity of corn and cotton: the greater the quantity you get each year the better. Lay off cotton rows 4 feet apart with a shovel-plow;double furrow; put in the gr >in Kinches deep. Ridge with a long scooter & Inches wide; matte the bed with turn-plows; sub soil the turn plows; split out the midd.es with shovel. Plant with a cottonseed sower and cover with a board or harrow. First plowing: Run “2-inch sweep with right winged turned down, hoe out to two or three stocks to the hill avetaging 0 inches ten days alter plowing. Second plowing: Use same sweep, the right wing turned up a little more. Third plowing: In the same way; run a third furrow in the middle to level. Cotton standing thick in the drill will be tnucliforwarderthan thatplanted thin. Cotton only requires distance one wa v. Mr. Dickson has made on some acres 6,000 pounds seed cotton per acre. Aid acre lot made 0,000 pounds average to the acre. Be careful not to cut the roots of cot ton. Have a deep water furrow in the spring’s work flat by hot weather. On level laud run the rows north and south. In wet weather cotton with most man nnre does the best. The higher the latitude where corn will ripen before frost, the thicker it may be planted, and the more it will make, other things being equal. Never put m .re than 100 stalks to the bushel ol corn the land ought to make. Two thousand stalks of corn to the acres are enough for this county (Han cock, Ga.). I have made 1 bushel of corn to every 52 stalks in the Held. Turn in the weeds, grass, peas and clo ver. ami make the land mellow. Plow deep, and cultivate shallow, and you will have no trouble in growing crops. Clay lands will bear tho same treat ment as sandy lands, and with less diffi culty. No matter the color of lands, or whether sand or clay, keep up a full sup ply ol vegetable mold; break deep before planting; cultivate lightly—the result will bo good. In the distance 1 give, 7by 3 feet, there are‘2l square feet to eaon stalk et corn. If tnere is enough soluble matter in that space for two. or even three ears, one sr.iik will take it up; but if there is only mat ter enough for one ear of corn, and you put two stalks,and wateris scarceat ear ing time, you will miss gathering even that oueear. If it is a dry year, thin plantings will always make the most. Four disi inct errors keep planters from waking good corn crops; first, not keep ing sufficient mold in the land; sec md, plowtug too shallow in preparing for the crop; tmrd, planting too thick; fourth, cullivaiin 2. too deep. Keep your land in good heart. To manure the land with peas, sow the peas the Ist of July. Drop the peas and guano in every third furrow, as you break the land. If a good crop be made, feed off with stock—otherwise turn under. The true policy is to secure the greatest amount of vegetable mold you can accu mulate at the least cost. Avoid permanent manures. Use the kind that will come back to us the tirst year, and bring a large iuterest in the form of corn, cotton, wheat, ete. FARM AND 81 OIK ROTES. See that the cows have a dry place to lie ! on. Their udders should not be imbedded in and incruated with filth. Dry earth or muck in the stable will save manure, prevent disease and keep the milk from being tainted. Succulent food is the natural kind. The grea’er the amount of succulencv the easier is digestion and tho greater the milk flow. It requires twenty-one days from the egg to bring torth the perteot bee, and from fourteen to sixteen to make such bee a (orager. Pullets that commence laying at 4 and 6 months ot ago are by so doing checked in their growth, and do not usually attain the si/e that do those that begin laving later. Cows should be milked with regularity. If this work is postponed beyond the reg ular time the cows will not yield the usual quantity and will become dry very rapidly. lthaH been found by experiment that meal will pass throuzh the digestive oi gans quicker than nay, and that if the meal Is fed to an animal with an empty stomach, it passes away before it is fully divested; but if ted alter hay It becomes mingled with It, and more benefit is de rived. After calves get so they will eat hay give them what they will eatcleau of this and about one quart of oats daily. With outthe grain the hay will only keep them In store condition and wort.i’little more at a year old than now. All the profit will come from the grain, and the farmer who sees this point will lucrease the grain feed all the animals will bear. POP LEAK SCIENCE.

Whkatkn Grits.—A recipe for the preparation ot this cereal, sometimes known as “cracked wheat,” has already beou given in this series. The steam cooked is said to require no previous soaking; but all varieties are made more palatable and nutritious by lying in cold water for some hours before they are cooked. Breakfast Bacon.— Boneless break fast bacon, usually dubbed “English,” by courtesy, is for sale at every grocer’s. It is an inevitable adjunct of the English breakfast and a valuable appetizer, espe oiallA on enervating spring mornings.

Change the egg 6 into it and instantly ex tinguish the spirit lamp beneath or take from the tire. Cover the vessel closely and wrap a thick cloth about it to keep in the heat. Leave the eggs in the water six minutes, than transfer to cups or glasses. Eggs cooked thus are of uniform softness throughout, ami far more whole some than wheu boiled fast, long enough to cook the whites into indigestible tough ness, leaving tue yolks liquid. Eat from the shell once, and you will never again prefer to empty them into glasses. Waffles.—One quart or milk, one quart of sifted flour in which is mixed one even tenspoonful ot tine salt, three tahle spoonfuls of melted buM*-r, half a yeast cake, dissolved tn warm water, two eggs, one teaspoonful of sugar.
