A CICADA CITY. Thousands of Tiny Huts Erected by Seventeen Year Locusts. The reappearance of the seventeen year locusts, or cicidas, during last summer was accompanied in some localities by a very singular phe¬ nomenon. It is well known that these wonderful insects, after ly¬ ing for seventeen years in the earth, issue at the end of that period in tho form of pup®, from long burrows in tho .ground. Or¬ dinarily these burrows end at the surface of the ground, and the pup®, after crawling out of them, undergo their transformation into winged in¬ sects. But occasionally tho cicada, before issuing from its burrow, con¬ structs an extension of it above the surface of the ground like a little liut, and when its period of trans formatidh is at hand the insect breaks open the top or roof of its mud hut and emerges into the sun¬ shine. Heretofore but few specimens of these huts have been described by naturalists, but last spring great numbers of them appeared in some places, and the question has arisen, AVhy were they constructed? Ben¬ jamin Lander discovered an immense city of such huts on South moun¬ tain, near Nyack on tho Hudson, and lie thinks he knows why the insects build them. These huts were from one to four inches in height, and some of the more symmetrical of them, being composed of clay, stained with red oxide of iron, were beautiful objects. They were scattered by thousands over an area of about sixty acres, and in some spots were crowded close together, ten, or even twenty, appearing on a single square foot of ground. The population of this strange city was, of course, enor¬ mous. As to the explanation of tho build¬ ing of the cicida city, according to Mr. Lander, it was due to the uncom¬ mon heat which prevailed in the month of April, The heat pene trated the earth and stirred the pup®, which lay there awaiting their final ciiange to premature activity. They then ascended to the -fa 36 of the ground, and while yet "ig trails portation added the hit exten sions to their burrows 1 itec tion from the heat. Other persons have tho .hat the huts might be intended inflow to pro¬ of tect the burrows from the water, but the city just described ■ situated on high, dry ground. favor of the explanation of Mr, ^fcnder Where the are huts the existed facts that thin the and soil was miuch of the ground had been cov¬ ered with woods and undergrowth, recently burned off. This strip ping of the soil of its covering en¬ abled the heat of the sun to penetrate it the more readily, and thus to reach tbe pup® hidden in their burrows. Most Powerful llluminant.

TOPJC3 OF INTEREST RELATIVE TO FARM AND GARDEN. \VASHING BITTER. A prominent dairyman says that ho 1 has found that when cream is churned at a very low temperature—so low, in fact, that the buttermilk will be down to drawn fifty or fifty-four degrees after it is ' from the ekurn--the resulting butter does not need to be washed at a Dos ? L with & will the have washed equal butter keeping and qnali- bet¬ a ter flavor.—New York World. SETTING HENS. The earlier in the season the hens Rre set the better for profit, both for [ hens aU e 8S “ake s the the best sale early of chickens. setters Old and mothers. It is well not to give them too many cbickSj especialIy if the weather is cold. AVhen the chicks are first hatched the lien can easily cover them, but as they grow they require more room under the hen, and soon she is not able to cover or care for them properly. This means loss, as chicks must be kept growing from the time they aro out 0 f the shell till they have attained full size. If a chick is allowed to stop growing for a single day, if it ever gets chilled enough to be drawn up by tbe cold, or if it is allowed to go hun¬ gry for the space of half a day, that chick will not catch up what it has lost for days or weeks, and the date of its maturity will be delftyed. SWELLING ON THE SHOULDER OP A HORSE. This swelling will probably result iu a fistula on account of the impossi¬ bility of the pus produced by the in¬ flammation escaping. It is probably the result of a badly-fitting collar, or, as it is sometimes produced in this way, by a blow or bruise on the point of the shoulder by a low doorway. It is a common thing in stables that the doors are too low for a full-sized horse, and under this circumstance this trouble is always occurring. When the swelling is soft and pus may be felt by pressing on it by the fin¬ gers of each hand on opposite sides of it, it should be opened deeply and the contents swabbed out with a clean sponge on the end of a small elastic rod. Then a solution of one grain of bichloride of mercury in two ounces of water should be injected with a syringe, and the sore washed clean and then plugged with a wad of lint dipped in the solution. This should be done twice a day until the sore heals from the bottom.—New York Times. A WELL-ARRANGED SMOKEHOUSE. To make a smokehouse fire-proof as far as the stove ashes are concerned is not necessarily an expensivo job; all that is required is to lay up a row of brick across one end, also two or three feet back upon each side connecting the sides with a row across the build¬ ing, making it at least two feet high. As those who have a smokehouse use it nearly every year, that part can wmmss' * K. )?/ ' / ///r ^re¬ —o/Va-*. FIREPROOF SMOKE HOUSE. also be made safe from fire by tbe lit¬ tle arch built at the point shown in the illustration. The whole is laid up in mortar, and to add strength to tho structure an iron rod or bar may be placed across the centre of the bin and firmly imbedded in the mortar, two or three rows of brick from the top. Of course the rear of the arch is also bricked up. In most cases less than two huudre.i and fifty brick will be ell that is required.—American Agri¬ culturist, FLA.t culture. The fact that foreign flax spinners ere looking to the United States as a future source of supply emphasizes the importance of growing flax for fibre iu this country, where in so manysections the conditions are advan¬ tageous. It has been hitherto grown here for the seed, which is of much value for the oil it supplies and the food it furnishes to farm stoek, es epecially cattle. Fiax itself is easily grown, Its SUC cessful culture requires a good soil, well tilled. A good wheat soil is gen¬ erally considered a good one for flax, It is rather an exhausting crop, and ehould not be grown on the same land oftener than once in five or six years. To secure fine fibre, thick sowing is preferred, between two and one-half to three bushels of seed. Fiax fears weeds, end if weeded early and care fuily the crop will not require that I operation more than twice. About three months after sowing the flax will be ready for pulling ; this stage will be recognized by the leaves assuming a yellow tinge. broadcast. It Flaxseed is sown was formerly the custom to do this by hand, but the seed is so slippery that very uneven sowing resulted, and it » best done by machine. A broadcast seed sewer is the best for the purpose. The soil should be warm before the seed is sown end should not 1be wet If properly rolled and harrowed the seed should be covered to the depth of an inch. The yield per acre depends largely ; upon tbe season at the germinating j very period. importMt The time <wmiier of harvesting Gon If h is a vested too soon the qnanty oi me j fibre will be very fine but there will ; be great waste, while if gathered too i late the fibre will be very plentiful, for | but of coarse quality. If grown 1 seed flax should not be harvested un til the seeds are brown arid ripe; if Flax at present is cultivated in tills country chiefly for seed, and the straw from it is coarse and woody and defi¬ cient in fibre. The seed sown is at the rate of three pecks to the acre. When fibre is desired, bushels are substituted for pecks. Investigation shows that there is no reason why the two should not be combined, and both lint and seed produced by adopting a mean between the two practices of flax culture.—New York World. PLANTING POTATOES. Since a large quantity of seed and labor are required to produce a crop of potatoes, much pains should be taken to prepare the ground and cul¬ tivate it before and after the potatoes have grown, in the best manner pos¬ sible. The potato is a deep-rooted plant, and, therefore, the ground should be prepared deeply. These two points should always be kept prominently in mind. It also loves a moist, cool soil. This indicates that conservation of mo ist jre and shade should be secured by culture. The ground should not only be thoroughly and deeply plowed, but made fine. A most satisfactory way, where the ground is open, is to furrow deeply with a double mold-board, ns seen iu the upper part of the figure. Cover the potatoes by reversing the furrows, as seen in the center of the figure. After the potatoes have started, a scantling or light piece of timber may be chained crosswise near the front of the harrow, and two rows may be planed down, as shown in the lower part of the figure. mw m i , £2^, In a few days the potatoes will be up and will be entirely free from weeds. This double plowing and fining and depositing of the clods and stones in the middle of the rows re¬ sults in putting the ground in super¬ ior condition, but iu saving a very large amount of after culture. The most satisfactory results that we have ever reached,* have been by this method. — Country Gentleman. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Make some reasonable experiment every year. Increase the number of hogs. So long as people eat pork and bacon, some use can be made of the meat. In feeding grain to sheep feed a small quantity often. Keep them dry, and give them all the salt they want. The winter evening should be em¬ ployed in reading aloud and in amuse¬ ment. That is one way to make farm life pleasant to the children. Dairy farmers who sell milk in New York City get an average of about ten cents per gallon. This is less than our dairy farmers get in Southern towns. If at any time you have a spare moment it would be well to look around and see that all the tools and machinery are in good order and ready for the spring work. Give the hogs the run of a pasture, with good water and comfortable quarters to sleep, and feod ground soaked feed, and there will be a hand¬ some on the investment. Give more attention to the garden and truck patches, Aside from the pleasure derived from eating freely of fresh vegetables, you add to your comfort and save doctors’ bills. Horses may take cold in the stable when brought in very warm, especially if cracks permit cold draughts to enter. The blanket should always bo used on very cold days as a protec¬ tion. To get rid of weeds it is only neces¬ sary not to allow them to produce seed. If this is done every year they are sure to be exterminated, but it must be the object to destroy every one. j Cociiil.,, Egg/ from the large breeds, as Brabmas, etc., are not so apt to be fertile in winter as those of the smaller breeds. It is well to remem¬ ber this when setting for very early chick*. Famine occurs more in those sec¬ tions where dependence is placed almost exclusively upon a single crop. There are always some crops that can be seeured, although all others may be a total loss. The exact temperature for loosen tba hatr from the skin of a pig at butchering is 180. The pig should remain a fall minute in the water at this temperature to give time for the hair to be loosened. Tbe four secrets of success in breed mg are method, judgment, applica¬ tion and patience. Without judg¬ ment there can be no method, without method no application and without patience no success.

Rubbing the stain home-made cider vinegar will remove Feeding tin Earth. It is said by competent authority that the annual increase in value of the forests of the United States would pay the public debt. This at first seems an almost absurd statement, but when one takes into consideration the fruit and nnt-bearing forests, the gain in the size of trees and the accu¬ mulation of woody matter, to say nothing of the immense value of leaves and decaying wood in fertiliz¬ ing the earth, it is easy to see that this is by no means an improbable as¬ sertion. The value of fallen leaves and decaying wood is not and never has been properly appreciated ns fer¬ tilizing elements. It is no unusual thing for intelligent persons in pros¬ perous communities to gather together all the sticks, fragments of limbs, weeds and plant-stalks dry and and useless shrubs, pile them up to make a bonfire of thorn. That this is a waste of the good gifts of nature, these people will some day learn. Every garden should havo a corner devoted to the preparation of fertilizers, and into this should go every particle of vegetable and animal matter that comes within reaeb in the course of household affidrs. Leaves from ^he forest are worth collecting for this purpose, and all fragments of decayed wood have their uses for plant food. The enormous waste of fertilizers through the sewage pipes of great cities should in some way bo stopped for more reason* than one. This waste not only takes from the ground that which rightly belongs to it, but it contaminates aud soils the waters of the globe, rendering them unwholesome, and in many instances producers of disease. Tinned into large tanks, passed through purifying processes and thrown out upon the ad¬ jacent fields, this matter would make desert places bud and blossom liko tho Tose. All plants have their special prefer¬ ences in the way of food, and what is not utilized by one is eagerly absorbed by another. There are European Na¬ tions that might give us many a lesson in this sort of economy which it would be worth our while to consider. “Willful waste makes woeful want,” says tho proverb, and there are al¬ ready in New England practically wide exhaust¬ areas where tho soil is ed. If farmers took better oare of the plant food that they new nllow to go to destruction the abandoned farm and the unthrifty husbandman would be few and far between.—New York Ledger. _ Elephants In Wat From very ancient times elephants have been used both in war opera¬ tions and as burden-bearers in com¬ mercial transactions in times of peace. Elephants form a battery and each one carries a cannon securely strapped upon her back. They are all females, the females being chosen because they ftro larger, stronger and more easily trained. It must be understood that ele¬ phants when in iho military service, are put through pretty s To .. ro \ train¬ ing in order to so fit therj Jjjhptioal work that they will be reliable v, en times come. The elephants take mon mg baths. Every morning the ’ big m.Jfchms tjaasts file down to tbe river bank, ac¬ cording to command. of As,soon told as to tlioy lio arrive the half them aro upon their side. This they do liko tho obedient soldiers that Jthey are. Then the other hall use their trunks as hoso aud squirt streams of water upon the prostrate forms. As the water falls upon the animals attendants scrub the tough hide with pieces of so-ip stone. Wheu one side is washed, the elephants are com¬ manded to roll over. They are as siited to roll over by the other ele¬ phants, who use their tusks for this purpose. When the first halt of tho battery have had their bath, the pro¬ cess is reversed and tho others get theirs. When breakfast time arrives they are drawn up in line before a row of piles of food. Each anirna i gets for his breakfast ton pounds of raw rice done up in five two-pound packages. The rice is wrapped in leave and then tied with grass. At tL<> command “Attention!” each animal raises its trunk and a package is thrown ito its capacious month. This method of feeding is adopted iu order that tho grain may not be wasted. Elephants in the Indiau army aro fed twice a day, the breakfast being of rice, as just stated, tbe afternoon meal being of hay and sweet reeds of sugar cane.—St. Louis Star-Sayings. Stricken With Buck Paralysis. A North Auburn huuter, who is a crack shot, tells the following story about bimsolf: He says that while out hunting the other day he came upon a fine largo deer, not over two rods away. He attempted to raise his riflo to bis shoulder, but his arm became suddenly paralyzed. At that moment it would have been as much as an impossibility to lift a feather as a thousand-weight of iron. All ho could douvas to stand there and watch the deer disappear in the distance. Then his arm regained its normal con¬ dition and he started on the deer trail again. After awhile he came upon the deer a second time, tb ■ game be¬ ing less than twenty rods away. Again the hunter attempted to raise his rifle to his shoulder, and ag u his arm re fused to serve him. He gave it up and went home, This man is a vel eran hunter, and he say tliat he never had any trouble of this kind be¬ fore. “If it had been a gray squir¬ rel,” said he, upon his return, “I could have shot ito heat! off without half trying.”—Lewiston (Me.) Jour¬ nal. A Wild Cat’s Courage. While four section men were repair¬ ing the track of a Florida railway a large wild cat sprang from the ajdoin ing woods with all fourn m the back of one of the men. The other men rushed to their companion t assistance and then it required a dozen blows with the spike matl to make the beast l turn loose his hold, When the cat finely ran away the exasperated men followed it bLuteti up the tre ■!-, and were -t turned on thorn.
