The illustration hero given of the tarvsa of the hot fly,.showing its attachment to the coat of the stomach by the large end rie —tho Farmer, head—appeared with originally in Prat- , the following explana¬ tions: TUK BOT MAGGOT. Farmers . have often noticed ou tho breasts and forelegs of horses minute yel¬ low specks, These are the eggs of the horse hot ily. These eggs are licked off where laid from irritation and, passing larva), through then the stomach, hatch, and the pass their lives until ready again to transform, when they are ex¬ truded with the ftcces. The attachment to the stomach, is by means of the hooks, where it sucks liquid nourishment from the food of tho horse. They do not eat through having the stomach, as often supposed, no means for so doing; neither do they cause serious disability, unless in sucb quantity as to take the nourishment so horse, indispensable to the well being of the or in case they accumulate in such quantities in the etomacli and bowels ns of to considerably interfere with the process The digestion. head maggot, tho being of the mature, lets go its to coat stomach, passes out of tho intestinal canal, falls to the earth with the excrement, makes its way to the earth, whence it, in about six weeks, transforms and issues as tho per¬ fect fiy, lays its eggs upon tho ends of the hairs of tho horso and dies. Once tho insect is lodged in the stom¬ ach, little can bo done. When they exist The hole sometimes found in tho stomach of the horse infested with hols Is caused by tho action of the gastric juice of the animal acting upon inflamed and Suppu¬ rating surfaces. Tho preventive is to carefully clip off all eggs found. Watch for them. Hints on Cactus Cultivation. Almost every grower of flowers, whether amateur or professional, culti¬ vates at least one or more varieties of the cactus. To these growers the fol¬ lowing Illustra¬ tions and hints, by American Gar- den, will bo of great Interest. Theso cuts show methods of grow¬ ing delicate spe¬ cie s of cactus from stocks of a stronger, charac¬ ter, or to elevate low growing or drooping they varieties so that can bo seen to advan¬ tage.

ProfiMfOl Riley has called attention to the fact that during du tho prose present year two brood* of the periodteal cicada or so called seventeen yew locust will make their ap¬ pearance In different parts of the country. He asks in a circular sent out from the department of agriculture at Washington for information in regard to the appear¬ ance of these locusts whenever seen. Readers who send this information to Professor Biley will doubtless do a ser¬ vice to science and indirectly to them¬ selves. bn its winged state tho seventeen year old locust is of a black -color, with trans¬ parent wings and wing covers, tho thick anterior edge red, and larger veins of which are orange and near the tips of the latter there is a dusky zigzag lino In the form of the letter W, supposed by the superstitious to indicate war. The eyes are red, the rings of the body are edged with dull orange, and the legs are of tho same color. The wings expand from two and one-half to three and one-quarter inches. In Its many years of underground life this insect does more or loss damage by feeding upon the roots of plants, but its manifest Injury is when in the perfect state the female deposits her eggs in the twigs of fruit and other trees, where punctured limbs, as a rule, languish usd die soon after the eggs are hatched. The eggs are of a white color, about one-twelfth of an inch long and taper at each end. The insects hatched out are grub like in form and are covered with little hairs. They soon find their way to the soil, into which they descend to where the roots are most abundant. The only change to which they are subjected during the long period of their subterranean confine¬ ment is an increase of size and the more complete scale like development of tho four "small which prominences on their backs, represent their future wings. When tho time arrives for them to issue from the ground they come out during successive nights in great numbers, come up the trees, fasten themselves to the same with their claws and proceed to Cost off their skins. A long rent appears In the skin of tho back, and through this the cicada pushes itself, and withdrawing its legs and wings from their separata cases, crawls away, leaving its empty pupa skin. Within a fortnight after their final transformation the females begin to lay their eggs, and in six weeks the whole generation becomes extinct. Such are in brief the general habits of this remark¬ able insect, which passes seventeen years of its irfo in the soil and at stated periods appears for a short time to life above ground. * "'40> Of Interest to Dairymen. By an act passed by the New York leg¬ islature and approved by the governor, the dairy commissioner is directed to em¬ ploy exceeding expert butter five in number, and cheese whose makers, duty not It shall be, under his directions, to exam¬ ine and inspect butter and cheese factor- stitutes, meetings i the state ns shall be designated by the commissioner, to impart thereat informa¬ tion as to the best methods of making butter and cheese.

Another the appropriation State or $2,500 has been made to Dairy associa¬ tion to be expended in holding a number of dairy conferences in various parts of tho state to illustrate butter ana cheese making. To Keep Clilnck Bugs from a Corn Field. A great many remedies and preventives against chinch bugs have time been suggested the and published from to time, most thorities, of them emanating generally from good difficult au¬ but very so and impracticable In thdr app}ieg$ij» t£eir as to be of little general use.'

Conclusions About Kfisilago. Professor Henry, of the Wisconsin ex¬ periment station, who has been investi¬ gating the silo system, sums up his con- elusions somewhat as follows: 1. Even though ensilage made from Indian com has no more feeding value than the same amount of material dried into good fod- deii the difficulties and expense of curing and caring for the dried fodders are such that ordinarily the silo feeding is preferable. dry fodder 2.
