Ou shade tree?, nlonj; tho lines of our Springfield streets, compose a very impor tant local feature, and all will be inter ested in anything pertaining to their pres ervation. Therefore our readers will be glad to know that, upon the invitation of Mr. Cole, at 172 South Limestone street, Mr. V. M. King, associate editor of the, Farm nnd Fireside, visited his grounds, and found the soft maple trees badly dam aged. An insect was found adhering to the limbs and upon the branches a cotton liko substance. Mr. King procured nnd promptly forwarded to I'rof. C. V. Riley, Chief of the Entomological llureiu of the Department of Agriculture, specimens of the insect, together with the cottony sub stance, and received the following reply. Your furor ot the 15th Inst, has come to hand. The insect you enclose is the Cottony Maple scale (Iihinarii tnnumrabitig, Uflthv.) which tbe past year whs very destructive to maples in many sections of the country so as t3 attract gtrernl attention, A full and illustrated arliclo on this insect, by Prof. Riley, is In bis last annual report (Annual Report U. S. Department of Agriculture for 1884, p. 350,) and the mode of preparing and applying kerosene emulsion which is by far the most reliable remedy for scale iniecls is also explained there (p. 328 and p. 330.) Among the specimens of Pulvinaria you sent, there were also some pupa skins of a lady bird Ejcchomtui bioulntrns) which is one of the natural enemies ot scale insects. As it is important that immediate steps should be taken to prevent further dam ago to tho Bhado trees, such as maple, elm, linden, sycamore and others, we publish below a full description, together with the proper remedies required for the prompt destruction of the insect re ferred to: The Cottony ample Scale. (I'ulnnaria innumerabilia, Hatkron.) OttDKB. llEMIlTltttA; FAMILY C0CC1DAE. This scale insect stands prominent among tho species which have been especially abun dant during the past summer. Circumstan ces appear to have been particular favorable to its development, and, although it does not spread rapidly, its general appearance this season has caused considerable alarm in many States. It was sent to us during the spring and summer by correspondents in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, and Miss ouri. For the past thirty years it has at tracted considerable attention as damaging Bhnde trees, particularly the maples, in differ ent parts of the country, occurring in ex traordinary abundance trom time to time, and then Hlmost lost sight of for several yeirs. It is more particularly a Northern insect, nnd although it is often numerous in Virginia and Missouri, we have never re ceived it from, nor heard of its occurrence in the extreme Southern States. FOOn-PLaKTS. The ordinary food-plant of this species of bark-louse is the Soft or bilver maple Acer daacayrpum), but previous to 1879 we bad not only found it upon the other species of Maple, but also upon grape-vine, Osage orange, Oak, Linden, Elm, Hackberry, Syca more, Bose, Currant, and Spindle tree (Euony mui). In addition to these plants, Mr. Put nam mentions Locust, Sujiac, wild Grape, Uox-elder, lleech. and Willow. With regard to the specific identity of the Individuals from all these diflerent plants, there is still Kom for doubt, though in 1875 we successfully trans'ened the species from Madura and Vllis to Quercus. We wrou. Mr. Putnam, under date of March 25, 1870: "In all essen tial external characters they are identical, and, until they are shown to be different by the character and arrangement of the secre tory pores In the anal plate of the female, they must be assumed to be identical. It Is this critical comparative study which would greully Increase the value of your work." This study Mr. Putnam failed to make, and summed up his account simply with the words: "I do not feel fnlly prepared to agree with Mr. Hiley and Miss Smith in re garding all tbo l'ulvmariic found on the ap proaching exclusion of the male. The pos terior end ot the cale is in this manner raised up, and the perfect insect backs out with its wings held close o the sides of its body. Meanwhile the female larva) have been un dergoing but slight changes ot form. Ttiy gro larger and also broader across the pos terior lortlon, but remain flit and with but a alight Indication of a dorsal carina. Just be fore the appearance ot the adult males, they undergo another molt and change In color from a uniform pale-yellov to a somewhat deeper yellow with deep red markings. The males make their appearance from Au gust 1 to September 15, Issuing most abund antly about lhn middle of the former month, and their lite Is abort, selJom exceeding two or three days. They copulate with the fe males and then die. The latter, soon after the disappearance of the males, gradually lose their bright-red markltgs and change to a deep-brown color. They grow moie convex, aud the dorsal layer of wax becomes thicker aud more cracked. Before the falling of the leaves they migrate to the twigs and there fix themselves, generally ou the underside. After feeding u long as the asp flows, they become torpid and remain la this condition until spring. At the opening of spilng the eggs develop with great rapidity and distend the body greatly, causing It to become convex Instea I of (1st. The color ll row yellowish, marked with dark brown, and tho insect now absorbs sap with great rapidity and ejects drops of honey-dew. From the middle of May to ihe t'rst ot Jure the egg laying commences. The eggs are de poillod st the end of the body, In a nest ot waxen fibies smetid from pores sit uated around the anus. Till neat Isnltuehed to the posterior ventral pornon of tbo body, and adheres somewhat to the twig. As the eggs arc protruded Into the waxy mass the posterior pottlon of the body Is gradually raised up until It often reaches an angle of forty-five degrees with the bark. The egg laying continues until on into. July, and, al ter one or two thousaod eggs have been de posited, the lemale dlrs. It Is almost always within this period of egg-laying thai tho in sect is noticed, on account of IH large tlie, but more particularly from the conspicuous white cushion at the end ot Its body. After the death of the femile btr beak oreaks off and hir body shrivels up, but remains at tached to the twig by the cottony mass for a long time, often a )ear or more. NATCnAL KNKMtll. The Cottony Maple Scale is subject to the attacks of very much the same natural ene mies as other scale-Insects. A number of predaceons beet es fied upon the eggs and young lart.e. Tfe have obsered tho common lady-bird, Clulocoriit buulntrui, engaged In this work, aud also the Coccinellids llipera tpts iignata and 11 btgeminata. In addition to these Putnam mentions Anatts S-puncla-(o, '-the larva of a species of Chrysopa" and "the larva; of two species ot Rtiuuulr." The interesting lepidopterous insect Dak rumni coccidicora Comstock, was originally bred from this bark-louae. Its larva- con struct tubular passages of silk and wax from one Pulvinaria to another on a thickly in fisted branch, and eat both tbe eggs and the waxy filaments which surround them. This ins-ct and its curious habit were described at length by Professor Ccmstock in Ihe annual report ot this Department for 1870, op. 241 243. It has been found preying upon Pulvi naria only In tbe vicinity of Washington, but in Florida destroy both a large Lecimum on magnolia, a Coccid allied to Dactyloptui and the common "Turtle-luck scale" (eri nium httpertdum). During the pist season, Miss Murtfeldt has noticed a harvest mite In great numbers feed ii.g on eggs of this species at Kirkwood, Mo. From specimens sent to the D'partmint, this mite seems to belong to the genus Eupodei and is allied to the European II. Inemahs. It Is very minute and pale redd.sh-ycllow color. The body is divided into four distinct eeg ments, two of which belong properly to the abdomen, the last one being the largest, the hrst the smallest, and the other two about eci-ial in length. Tho division between the last two segments is a dist'net, whliisb, trans verse line, while the others are iudicated by slight lateral indentations and subdorsal Im pressions reaching to the lateial margin, of the same paje color. This is probably the same ml e noticed by Mis) Smith, and men tioned In her report previously cited. Two true parasites are known to inlest this scale The first of these, Coccophagui lecann (Fitch), is very common, and ordinarily in fests the scales in great numbers. The adult insect is a minute, black, four-winged fly, marked with crescent-shaped yellow patch in the middle of the body above. Ai-cordioglb Putnam, there are two broods ol this pirnsile each season, tbe adults appearing in May and August. The Infested lice become more or less indited, finally turning black and be coming rigid. The females are most com monly infested, though Putnam states that he has bred the parasite from the male scale. The second paraite was bred by Mr. Put nam after the publication of bis article, and was described by Mr Howard in his paper on the parasites of Coccids (Ann. Kept. Dept. ot Acr., 1880, p. 3C5) as Aphyeut piitvinarut. This species seems tj be rare and has not been bred since. It is minute, dull yellow In color, with a dusky abdomen and with an tenn.c variegated with brown and white. REMEDIES. The principal remedies which have been propoel in the past nre, briefly, hear.ing in tbe tree, i. e., cutting off Ihe branches and drenchiDg with a solution of whalr-jil soap or a 1 per cent, solution ot carbolic acid. Durir.g the last season, however, we have recommended nothing but kerosene emu1 sions, and these will undoubtedly uivn hi-tier satisfaction than anything elo that can be used. The best time for spraying the trees will be while the young are hatching, late in May or earlv in June, and thn annnratna ,1. scribed in the article on the Cottonwood lteetle can be used to the same advantage nerc. This is from the pen of C. V. Hiley, Chief of Iiureau of Entomology, Department of Agriculture. We append full directions for making and using kerosene emulsions. It cannot be too strongly impressed upon all who use kerosene as an insecticide, that it can be considered a safe remedy only when properly emulsified. The formula for the kerosene and soap emulsion, as tound most satisfactory by Mr. Hubbard, is as follows: Kerosene 1 (iH,na-67 per cent. Com won soap, or whale- 11 oap J4 Dound! ,, M . Water 1 gallon ;-5J'"rcent- Heat the solution of soap and add it bo 1 log hot to the kerosene. Churn the mixture by means of a forco pump and spray-nozzle for five or ten minutes. The emulsion, if perfect, forms a cream, which thickens on cooling, and should adhere without oiliness to the surface of glass. Dilute, before using, one part of the emulsion with nine parts ot cold water. The above formula gives three gallons of emulsion, and makes, when di luted, thirty gallons of wash. The ketosne and Boap mixture, especially when the latter is warmed, forms upou very moderate agitation, an apparent union; but the mixture is not stable, and separates on standing or when cooled or diluted only up on violent agitation. It is formed, not grad ually, but suddenly; in short, to use a fa mllliar phrase, "it comes" like butter. Tbe time required in churning depends some what upon the violence ol the agitation, but still more upon the temperature, which, however, need not be much above blood beat. When obtained, an emulsion of kerosene and soap is known by the perfect union of tbe logredlents, and the absence of oiliness, so that the liquid clings to the surface of glass or metal. It resembles a rich cream, mjre or less thickened accordingSo the proportion of soap used in the mixture. These details have been fully set forth In previous reports, but it seems necessary to again reler to them, because, while tbe value ot the kerosene emulsions as Insecticides baa been widely acknowledged, the important point of thorough emulsification has not b en sufficiently recognizd, aid the agricultural press ot the country In the discussion of this new otplicaiion of an old r medy have Kry generally omitted to mention the methods by which apeifect emulsion may be cued. Tho lollowingin regard to the Cottony Maple Scale, is contributed to tbe Agri cultural Heport by Miss M. E. Murtfeldt, Kirkwood, Mo.: Ihe Cottony Maple Scile Pulvinaria in. nunuralilU Rath.) was repotted dur.ng tbe mjcith of June from many localities in MU so'itl, Illinois, and Kansas.

Every political gourmet must enjoy laring Prince Bismarck speak. Ho is hearing no elogant orator, rattier mo contrary, but ho can lead a debate liko no ono olso. Only a few days ngo ho spoko seven times In ono afternoon, each timo with moro energy and spirit, proving that his health Is indeed restored. Suet, dcnly soft bolls aro heard in nil parts of tho house. Tho electric bells in tho reading-room, in tho committee rooms, the journalists' room aro hounded to announce tbo arrival of tho chancellor, who has shown that ho will speak pres ently, for with one of his pencils, moro than a foot long, ho has noted down something on tho loose quarto sheets before him, with letters not moro than an inch deep, and this is a safe sign that his intends speaking. Tho presi dent bons to him, and Ptluceo Bis marck rises to "tako tho word." ilei is certainly more than six feet high; over his powerful chest and broad shoulders rises a .strangely rotinelcd, well-shaped head ot enormous dimen sions, anel with no hair upon it, 8o that it lor ks liko a domo of polished ivory. Thic.t white brows hang over his eyes like two icicles. Tbeso brows gio his face a dark and frowning expression, nnd tho look which glistens in his eyes is cohl and somewhat cruel at least in parliament. His moustncho is also thick and gray, nnd conceals tho mouth entirely, tho wholo faco is covered with folds and wrinklos, broad rings sur round his eyes, and even his temples aro covered with small wrinkles. When he b gins to speak tho color of his faco changes from palo to red, and gradually assumes a light bronze shade, which gives his powerful skull tho ap poaranco of polished metal. It is a surprNo to hear Bismarck speak for the first time. The soft, al most weak, voice is out of all propor tion with his gigantic frame. It some times becomes so soft that wo fear it will die out altogether, and when ho has spoken for a whilo it grows hoarse. The chancellor sometimes speaks very fast, sometimes very slowly, but nocr in a loud tone. IIo has no pathos whatever. Personal attacks upon bis enemies are spoken by Bismarck with ironical politeness, and in such an obliging tone as if they concealed tho kindest sentiments. But if his anger cannot bo heard it can bo scon; ids faco gradually grows red, and tho veins on his neck swell in nn alarming man ner. When angry ho usually grasps the collar of his uniform, 'and seems to catch for breath. His brows aro low ered still more, so that his eyes aro al most invisible. His voico grows a shade louder, and has a slight metallic ring in it. The sentences drop from his lips in rapid succession. IIo throws back his head and gives his faco a hard, stony expression. But it is diliicult to discern when his anger is real and when it is artificial. The chancellor has been seen trembling with rago, and '-oro liko tho elements let loose than anything olso. Onco when ho thought that tho word "Fie!" had been said by one of tbo opposition party ho bad ono of his attacks, which would havo si lenced tho houso had everybody been speaking at once. With trembling nos trils, with his teeth firmly sot, with eyes that emitteel fire, and clinched hands, ho jumped from his place to tho side whero tho word had sounded. If amplo apologies and explanations had not been offered, who knows how this sccno might havo ended? But except upon such raro occasions Bismarck, the orator, is always a well-bred man. Ho does not bawl or shout any of his speeches, but while giving them their full share of pointed sarcasm, ho al ways maintains tho form of a political conversation between gentlemen. He has a method of his owu for waging war against his opponents. He regards bis opponent's speech as a ballot wool, tho last sentenco spoken being tho end which ho takes in his hand hrst, and with which ho begins to unwind tho whole speech as ho would unwind the ball of wool. But it is easy to seo that whl o his tonguo is speaking his spirit is ft r in advance of .,7.unch Paper Translation in London Xcws. Mrs. Sam Smart advertised for a col ored servant.
