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.

'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.— Stato Agricultural Department.

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 be interested to learn of his bappi- ness.—Atlanta Journal, 21st. 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 >revent the attack.
