Hon. O. B. Stevens, Oomtnin.Moner ol
Agrioulturo, Atlantu, On.:
Dkau Sm—Under soparnto cover I nm
mailing you n tmmplo of my wheat,
which up to a short time ago was look
ing very well indeed, but for the last
wook or two it shows an ovidonce ol
some blight. Upon examination 1 find
some insect in the stem of the wheat lw-
twoeu the top of the ground and whore
the first lateral roots are found. I am
satisfied that this insect is damaging my
wheat, and would like for you to inspect
the sample and write me what it is and
whut can bo douoiu the matter.
Answku.—This insect has boon re
ferred to the Statu Entomologist, Pro
fessor W. M. Scott, and ho pronounces
it to l>e tho Hessian fly, a well known
wheat post found all over tho United
States. It is now too Into to prevent the
ravagos of this post upon tho presold
wheat crop. Tho treatment for this in
sect is preventive. Tho Ilessian fly is n
small, dark colored insect, resembling
somewhat the small mosquito. There
aro two destructive broods, ouo appear*
iug in tho spring, and working at ot
near tho lower joints of tho wheat,
causing the stem to break down in all
directions, a condition commonly desig
nated as “straw formed grain.”
Tho dormant stage of tho insect re
mains in the stubblo until fall, embedded
iu the outor surface of tho straw at oi
noar the outer joints, and protected by
tho leaf sheaf. Tho full brood of the
adult fly omorgos from tho dormant oi
flax seod” stage, and the period of its
active flying or swarming varios with
tho latitudo and soason. The oggs ar<!
deposited on the loaves of tho wheat, on
wheat sown early ouough to be up bo-
foro tho ending of tho period of iti
activo flying. Tho maggots hatching
from tho eggs doscoud beneath tho leal
sheaves to the huso of tho plant noar thfl
top of tho ground, and under tin
ground, where they food ou tho juicosof
the tissue, and cause tho infested plant!
to have a stuntod, dark groon or brown
apponranco, and provoufc tho infostod
shoots from producing good heads of
grain next spring. Tho insoct passes
tho winter in the “flax sood” or “wiutei
dormant stage,” and tho adults emerge
iu tho spring at periods varying with
tho latitudo, altitude and season. Hone*
wo could not adviso tho sowing of wheal
iu tho section of Calhoun until after tin
first good frost in tho fall. Tho objoot
should bo to sow as early as possible iu
tho fall to got rid of tho fly, and sooii
enough for tho wheat to got a good starl
to provont winter froozing, bonce you
will see that just when to sow yout
wheat is a vory important nmttor to b».
determined, and the latitude, altitude
and tho season play an important. part.
But after all. the oxporieuce nud good
judgment of the plauter must dictate
just when to sow his grain.
REMEDY SUGGESTED.
Tho remedy for the Hessian fly is:
1. Rotation of crops, planting tin
same laud ovory three years after acleau
crop, as eotton.
3. Aftor tho grain has .boon gathered
iu the spring, in tho fall nil tho stubble
and refuse of tho Hold should bo raked
fcogother and oflootunlly burned. .
3. Somo recommend Into sowing as a
remedy to avoid the evil, since, if de
ferred until aftor the fly has laiclitl
eggs the wlioat escapes the first brood.
This, however is objootiouable in ro
bpoet to the crop not boiug thus ablo to
obtniu a good start before tho frost
comes, and consequently, being liable to
winterkilling.
4. Pasturing tho crop with sheep for
a day or two, or mowing off tho tops ol
tho plants aud foodiug to stock in order
to destroy tho oggs, together with the
use of tho roller, nre means often ern
ployed. Wo consider, though, burning
tho stubblo the most effeotu.il remedy,
aside from that of giving best ohauoo to
tho crop to obtain a vigorous growth be
fore those pests make their appearance.
5. Another remody recommended
is as follows: Sow a narrow strip ol
wheat around each field in August oi
oarly in September, and dofor os long at
the season will permit the sowing oi
tho wheat from which tho crop is to be
obtniued. By this moans the wheal
sown in tho strip will make its appear-
auce first aud most of the oggs of tbs
fly will bo laid upon it. Aftor this
period it should bo plowed undei
vory deeply that the eggs may be de
stroyed, aud the latter wheat then sown.
Tho outer strip may then be included
also. This method is said to be very
successful. It will destroy tho fly and
protect the wheat at the samo time.
Hoping this will prove^atisfactory lam

'About lOO ot Till* Bn-cd and Short*
horns Have ItcciMitly Hern Im
ported into the State.
Questions.—1. What is being dom
to securo for tho farmer* of Georgif
pure bred cattle that have bofiu bo thor
ougbly acclimatized that they will not
dio prematurely upon the farmers’ hands'
2 Would it not pay some enterprising
person or firm to establish a stock fans
and keep pure bred cattlo that have bo
come immune against the diseases that
have caused such discouragement to tbi
breeders of improved cattle in Georgia'
3. Could not tho Prison Commission
do something on this lino by purchasing
a herd of pure bred cattlo for tho pur
poso of selling them botweon tho ages ol
2 and 12 months to only those personl
in Georgia who will ho bound by law t<
such cattlo for brooding purposoi
alone, uud iu this state?
Answer—1. Tho Agricultural Depart
ment, in co-operation with Mr. Wade ol
tho Southern railway, Mr. Saw tell, Mr.
H. Martin, Dr. Hunnicut and others,
caused to be brought to Atlanta during
tho lato Interstate Fair more than IOC
Horeford and Shorthorn beef cattlo ol
from four to 12 months old. Coming
from an infected section of Toxni
thoy aro considered ncclimatizod and
immune, Somo of them wero pun
breeds and others from throo-fourths tc
yon-eighths puro breod. Judges pro
nouncod them as fine hoof cattlo as wora
ovor exhibited in asouthorn state. Prob
ably one-half of tho Herofords wors
bought at cheap rates and sold at from
$35 to $50 oacli. • About three-fourths ol
those cattlo wore sold during tho fair iu
Atlanta and tho remainder at the Val
dosta fair nud distributed over varioul
sections of the state. Good results nr<
hoped for from tills fresh importation
and distribution of unproved cattlo.
Answor to 2 aud 3. It has been sug
gestod by somo of our correspondents in
terested in this subject that the legis
lature might" well appropriate u reason
able fund nnd authorize tho prison
commission to purchase for tho prison
farm near Mlllodgevillo a liord of purs
blood beef cattlo, to bo sold while bo
tweon tho ages of 2 and 12 months tfl
only thoso persons iu tho stato of Goor*
gift who will bind tliomselvos to use suck
cattlo for brooding purposes alouo and
only in this stato. Wo think this a good
suggestion.
Hero wo would urgo that Horeford!
bo bred for boof and kept soparato from
tho Jorsoys, which should bo reserved
for dairy purposes. It should bo remem
bered that the puro dairy strain is*far
removed from the pure beef straiu.—

“Quick LtuiclicH.” \
It Is the habit of the modern time
saving young man, says Eliot Gregory
iu The Atlantic, upou entering a quick
lunch establishment to dash for the
bill of farq aud give an order (If bo Is
adroit enough to catch one of the maids
on tho fly) before removing either coat
or hat. At least 10 seconds may bo
economized In this way. ' Ouce seated,
tho luucher ' fulls to on anything at
hand — bread, cold slaw, crackers or
catchup. When the dish ordered ar
rives, he gets his fork Into It ns It ap
pears over his shoulder aud cleans the
plate before the sauce makes Its np
pcarance, so -that Is eaten by Itself or
with bread.
Cups of coffee or tea go down In two
swallows. Little plies of enko are cut
in quarters and disappear In four
mouthfuls, much after the fnshiou of
childreu down the ogre’s throat In the
mechanical toy, mastication being ci
ther a lost art or considered a foolish
waste of energy.
A really accomplished luucher can
assimilate his last ’‘quarter” of cakes,
wiggle into his coat and pay his check
at the |eak at the same moment. The
next he Is down the block In pursuit of
a receding trolley.
A marriage of rnuok interest in At
lanta is that of Miss Georgia England,
of Cedartown, and Mr. Andrew Hester,
formerly of this city, which was sol
emnized yesterday afternoon at tho
homo of the bride in Cedartown. The
wedding was very quiet and was a sur
prise to the friends of the young
couple.
Mr. and Mrs Hester came to Atlanta
Inst night. They will make their- home
i Cedartown.
The bride is an attractive young
woman, and is vory popular with a large
circle of friends and acquaintances.
Mr. Hester, though an Atlanta man,
has for some time heeu employed in
tho Paragon mills iu Cedartown, oc
cupying a lucrative positiou with that
concern, ile is very well known in this
city, and has hosts of friends who will

Ilmv to Cure Croup.
Mr. R. Gray, who lives near Araenia,
Duchess couuty, N. Y., says: “Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is tho best
medicine I have ever used. It is a lino
children’s remedy for croup aud never
fails to cure.” When given as soon as
the child becomes hoarse, or even after
the croupy cough has developed, it will

Remedy kept at hand ready for instant
use us soon as these symptoms appear.
