JUNE.
O JuneI delicious month of June!
When winds and birds all sing in tone
When in the meadows swarm the bees
And hum theirdrowsy melodies
WhilebiUagingthe buttercup,
To store the golden honey np
O June1 the month of bluest skies,
Dear to the pilgrim butterflies,
Who seem gay-colored leaves astry,
Blown down the tides of amber day
O June I the month of merry song,
Of shadow brief, of sunshine long
All things on earth love yon the best
The bird who carols near his nest
The wind that wakes and, singing, blows
The spicy perfume of the rose:
And bee, who sounds his muffled horn.
To celebrate the dewy morn
And even all the stars above
All night are happier for love,
As if the mellow notes of mirth
Were wafted to them from the earth,
O June! such music haunts your name
With you the summer's chorus camel

PLANT LICE.
The first plant lice that appear in
spring are hatched from eggs laid the
previous autumn, and are exclusively
females. From these the speoies is
propagated throughout the season by
"What is known as asexual generation,
th young being born alive through
many successive generations, and with
out any pairing of the sexes. The
males and perfect femalesi. e., those
capable of depositing fertile eggs, only
eppearlate in the season. It is said
Ithat the male form of the cabbage aphis
ihas not yet been discovered. Until
squite recently the eggs of the hop aphis
iad not been found, but it is now
thought that they are deposited on the
terminal twigs of plum tiees, and sev
eral other species are believed to deposit
their eggs on plants entirely distinct
"from the ones upon which they feed,
The peculiar, viscid swe3tish sub
stance that sometimes appears on the
leaves of pear and some other trees in
cummer, and which is known as "honey
dew," is laigely, if not entirely a se
cretion of the aphis. Ants are fond of
this secretion, and hence are always
found on plants infested with plant lice.
Indeed, the latter are treated by the ants
inuch as if they had been reduced to a
state of domestication. It is known
that the ants frequently transport the
dice from place to place, that they know
how to cause them to yield their sweet
Secretion at will, and they are also
(thought to protect them from their in
toed enemies. They are called "ants'
cows."
Last year the damage by aphis to
tfruit glowers and nuiseiymen in West
ern New York alone must certainly
have amounted to hundieds of thousand
if not to millions of dollars. But this
Is by no means the only locality that
suffered, nor is the past the only season
in which cultivated plants have been
injured by them It is estimated that
the injury to the hop crop of England
in 1882, from the aphis, amounted to
#8,000,000. The dreaded phylloxera of
Europe, that has threatened to annihi
late grape-growing in many localities,
(belongs to the family of plant lice, and
there are many other injurious species.
Perhaps no insect with which we
thave to contend is so difficult to bat
tle successfully in the open air. With
nursery trees and herbaceous plants,
kerosene emulsions or solutions of
whale-oil soap prove partially satis
factory. But the insects are so small
and so numerous, that it is practically
impossible to leach them all, and owing
to their exhemely rapid multiplication,
the few that escape soon envelope the
the plants anew. In the case of large
trees, their destruction becomes much
more difficult. On the whole, the
mastery of the aphis in the open air
muht be regarded as one of the unsol
ved problems in horticulture.
j. THE SHIPPING CKATE.
Those who grow produce for market
do not need to be told of the importance
of neat and proper packing to secure
ready sales and best prices. The farm
er sometimes has a crop, such as an
unexpected crop of early apples, that
'he would gladly turn into money, but
!he is not provided with baskets for
for packing his fruit, and if sent in bar
peels the fruit would arrive in bad order
,and bring low prices. To such the
"bushel crate comes as a ready resource.
A bushel crate is easily made, and forms
a neat and handy package for nearly all
ikinds of pioduce. To make a bushel
crate there are required three pieces,
each eight by fourteen inches, for the
end and centerpiece the strips or laths
tfor the sides are two feet long. The
width of these depends upon the article
to be packed. Sixteen strips az*e com
monly used, with spaces between for
ventilation. Ofter the corners of the
end and middle pieces are cut off this
makes the crate octagonal in shape,
which is an advantage, as it allows of
better ventilation when the orates are
stacked together. In building the crates
the two strips at the top are nailed down,
to allow an opening through which to
fill it. In packing in crates, as in bar
rels, they are to be shaken to settle the
contents, which should project slightly
at the top to require some pressure to
bring down the last slats, which serve
as a cover, into place. Vegetables and
fruits should always be packed with
pressure, otherwise they become bruis
ed and injured generally in transit.
BAD ODOKS IN MILK.
When cows first get on full feed of
grass at this season they are apt to
scour badly. If shut up at night and
milked in close stables night and
morning their milk will absorb the
odors from their manure and become
'extremely offensive. If cooled as
soon as possible and exposed to the air
the odors will disappear without being
noticed. But milk that has to be
carried to maiket or factories by milk
men is usually placed at once in close
cans. When these are opened some
hours later a strongly offensive odor
will pretty surely come from them. Not
long ago I heard of a daiiyman who
securod a herd of Holstein cows on
account of their yield. In this he was
not disappointed, but the milk was
extromely offensive so that his custo
mers would not take it. He would
have changed his valuable herd for
much poorer cows if some one had not
pointed out the cause of his trouble.
It is best not to give green laxative food
unaccompanied by other and more
substantial diet, and especially in Sum
mer cows should not be milked in close
stables wherever it can be avoided.
It is possible, and even probable, that

CULTIVATING CORN. a-
There are conditions of the ground
which make the double diamofld better
for the early cultivation of corn than
either the harrow or the cultivators.
When the Spring is what we term back
ward,n
the weather being distinguished
by rains, accompanied by low tempera
ture the ground becomes cold and wet
then the soil shouldbe thrownaway from
the corn, leaving ridges to dry quickly
and warm up in the sun. The plows
may be run very close to the corn I set
them just six inches apart. As soon as
the ridges are dry, especially if the
weather promises to be less rainy, the
furrows should be closed and the ridges
cut down with the cultivators or harrow,
if the size of the corn will permit.
I am believer in level, rather shallow
culture for corn, have been converted
from the ridge theory by several
years of experimenting. I am as decid
edly of opinion that often ridge culture
is the better, as I have pointed out. Our
practices must vary with conditions.
This applies with special force to the
cultivation of corn, for during its season
the weather is so changeable that the
conditions are not often the same six da)
in sucession. What is proper cultivation
one day may be wrong the next When
a man insists that either level culture
or ridged culture is right uuder all con
ditions you may be sure that his pi-eju
dices reduce his corn crop.
CUREENT NOTES.
Not only does the linden tree produce
honey in great abundance, but its qual
ity is regarded by many as equal, if not
superior, to that yielded by white clo
ver.
When a cow steps into the milk pail,
remarks an exchange, she also steps in
to the butter plate, and there is no get
ting around it.
Thin out instead of shortening in a
tree when you transplant it. It is a
mistake notion that it is the proper way
to cut off the ends of all the limbs.
One thing seems to have been quite
well demonstratedthat a larger quan
tity of potatoes, as well as potatoes of a
better quality, can be raised with chemi
cal fertilizers than with manure.
Of the newer hardy shrubs hydrangia
pauiculata grandiflora is one of the fin
est. It is perfectly hardy, and produces
immense panicles of white flowers in
great profusion. It blooms in July or
August, and remains an object of beau
ty until cut down by frost.
The great improvement made by the
hybridizer in the gladiolus within the
past ten years are simply wonderful,
and a few bulbs from a good strain will
well repay a little trouble with beauti
fully shaded flowers. They last in bloom
a long time.
Sponge cakeOne teacup of powder

fourth of a teaspoon of soda, one-half

Water-cressesWash well, pick off
decayed leaves and leave in ice water
until you are ready to eat them. They
should then be shaken free of wet and
piled lightly in a glass dish. Eat with
salt. The aie a piquant appetizer on
sultry mornings and very whole
some.
Tulips are excellent for early spring
flowers. The bulbs must be planted the
previous fall and protected through the
winter by a mulching of leaves or coarse
manure. The tulips in the various parks
are a little backward this year. Some of
the earlier varieties will be in bloom to
day, but the larger proportion will not
be at their best for another week, when
they will be well worth traveling miles
to see.

Literary Eminence.
Hawthorne used to ride up and down
in his later years, he tells us, with
plenty of people who knew him well as
the ex-Surveyor of the Port of Salem,
but who never knew that he had
written anything, and had never heard
of the "Scarlet Letter." In Samuel
Longfellow's memoirs of his brother
there is an entry from the poet's diary
in which he tells how a society woman"
at whose table he was dining one day
asked him: "O, Mr. Longfellow, have"
you ever published a book?" This was
after two-thirds of his life's work was
done. Literary eminence does not
effect much lodgment in the minds of
people of a certain grade. The other
day, the Listener is told, a gentleman
came into a barber-shop just as Dr.
Holmes was going out, and occupied"
the chair that the autocrat had vacated.
"Do you know who that was that
just went out?" asked the barber.
The visitor was curious to see what
account of Dr. Holmes the barber
would give, and shook his head.
"Why," said the barber, "that's old
Dr. Holmes."
"And who is Dr. Holmes?"
"O, he's been a doctor here a great

The sheep dogs of Crazy Mountain's?

A foreman of a sheep-ranch once
said that in sending out a new man he
assigned to him an old dog, thinking
that if the man did notjknow his duty
the dog did.
He charged the would-be heider to be
kind to the dog, saying: "He will not
stay with you if yon are not."
5 In two days the dog was at home
again. The foreman-visited the man,
taking another dog, and said to him:
"You were cross to the old dog, and I
told jou he wouldn't stand it."
"I wasn't cross to the dog," returned
the herder "bnt, confound him, he
wouldn't even let me swear at the

A Peer's Daughter Marries a Miner.
Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle A very
beautiful English girl came to a min
ing town in Montgomery County,
North Carolina, last autumn to spend
some time with her uncle and sister.
The husband of the sister is one of the
owners of a gold mine. The ladies
were said to bo the daughters of an
English Earl. The younger sister or
Lady Aymer, as she was called,
became "well known in that section.
One of her pleasures was to visit the
mine, where a large force of men were
employed. Among these miners was
Harry Bell, a native of North Carolina.
Lady Aymer and Hany Bell soon had
stolen interviews. A week ago Lady
Aymer's sister missecHier. Bell, too,
was missing. In twenty-four hours
came the news that a marriage had
taken place between the alleged Peer's
daughter and the American miner.
Then came Mr. and Mrs. Bell. They
had gone over into Kowan Couty,
which adjoines Montgomery, and were
married by a rustic preacher.

Apache Babies. I
_/_ &- _|
Leaning against wagons and build

baby Apaches sucking their fists therein.
The baskets are of the regular Indian
style, and the poor babies Are strapped

nothing showing but the round, chubby
face and two tiny fists. ||f
Some squaws hang their baskets to
the saddle horn, because' If they are
left standing on the ground the dogs

One rather frisky pony, with a baby
on the horn of his saddle, wanders

surrounded by a crowd of dogs. Their
barking starts him to trot, and with a
shriek the mother rushes from her
place in the line to catch him.^J^
But the pony doesu't want"to be
caught, and from a trot turns to a run
and away he goesthe basket, flapping
on his side, only making him run the

up. Finally the strap that holds the

"Col. Sellers" Still AlUe.
John T. Raymond is dead, but Col.
Sellers still lives. In one of the pri
vate parlors of a Fifth avenue hotel
a miniature railroad made of wood has
been built to illustrato the practicability
of a bicycle railroad car." A singlo
track underneath and one overhead
are all that is necessary, according
to the inventor's plan. Two wheels
above and below the car are supposed to
be sufficient to hold it in place, while it
is run through the grooves like a shuttle
lock at the rate of 100 miles an hour.
The man who is responsible for this

on $1,000,000 at par."
"How much do you estimate it will
be worth at the end of six months?"
inquired the man of money.
"A hundred to one," was the reply.
"Every dollar of stock will be worth
$100."
"Let me see," said the cap'talist.
"If I took $100,000 now, that would
be $1,000,000. Then suppose called
my option on $1,000,000 of stock at

A Harrelon* Cure.Mrs. G.~FV 8PHAGTJS,
of Crystal, MicJh, writes! I was troubled with
female weakness, leueorrhea and falling of the
womb for seven years, so I had to keep my bed
for a good part of the time. I doctored with an
army of different physicians, and spent large sums
of money, but received no lasting benefit. At last my husband
persuaded me to try your medicines, which I was loath to do,
because I was prejudiced against them, and the doctors said
they would do me no good. I finally told my husband that if
he would get me some of your medicines, I would try them
against the advico of my physician. He got me six bottles of the
'Favorite Prescription/ also six bottles of the 'Discovery,* for
ten dollars. I took three bottles of 'Discovery' and four of
Favorite Prescription,* and I have been a sound woman for four
years. I then gave the balance of the medicine to my sister, who
was troubled in the same way, and she cured herself in a short
time. I have not had to take any medicine now for almost
four years."
