To Destroy t!ie Codling Sloth.
Professor A J. Cook, of the Mk'hignn
Agricultural college, has conferred a lasting
boon on American fruit .trrowerj in bis bul
letin on the codling moth, or nasty, filthy
apple worm. Those who have tried the
method he recommends declare it U invalu
able, that by it they are enabled to raise
pple crop with avarcoly a wormy onu in
the lot It is simply to spray the tree just
at the close of blossoming time with London
purple or Paris grem dissolved iu water.
These are preparation containing arsenic.
The spraying is dons by a force pump and
barrel, winch is hauled through the orchard.
An Iowa farmer named John Dixon discov
ered the method many years ago. Ha used
the white arsenic. But this in more danger
ous than the o, her preparations, beoau it
is so apt to he mistaken for something else.
Professor Cook gives illustrations and de
scriptions of the codling moth, as follows:
codling moth ami worm.
The moth, F and 0, is nccunitoly repre
sented in the picture hi form and size. The
main color is gray flecko 1 w'th darker dots
and bars, and with a characteristic copper
colored Kjmt at tho end of its front w ings.
This spot will always enublo one to distin
guish this moth. Every appln growor should
put wormy apples in a small bos and rear
the moths, that thero may bo no doubt
a Unit the specie. In May, about two weeks
after the blossoms apjiear, th female moth
commences to lay eggs in tho calyx of the
blossoms, ii. These soon ha eh, when the
minute larva (shown full grown, E) eals into
the apple and foods up m the pulp nbout the
core, lilling tha space with its fecal filth.
These spring motln continue to come from
cellar or apple house till July. 1 h.iva takn
such mollis July 4 on tho screen of my cellar
window. Th whitish larvae attain their full
growth in about four weeks. This period
will be lengthen I by cold anil shortened by
heat. When mature the larva leaves the
apple, which may havvj fallen to tho groun 1,
and seeks a secluded place in which to spin
its cocoon (II and pupate. Tue pupa or
chrysalis (D) ii much like thos; of ether
moths. The pupa; of tha June an 1 July
larvteare found in the cocoons soon after the
latter are formed, while thos! of the autumn
larvw do not pupate till spring, but pass the
winter ns larva; in the cocoons. The e.gs of
the second brood are laid in July, August
aud September. The larvae feed in autumn,
and often till mid-winter, while as just slated
they do not pupate till spring.
Professor Cook prefers London purple to
Paris green because it is cheaper and easier
to mix in the wuter. The mixture is as fol
lows: I mix tho powder one pound to fi:ty
gallons of water. It is best to wet the pow
der thoroughly aud make a paste before put
ting it into the vessel of water, that it may
all mix, and not. form lumps. For a few
trees we may use a pail and WlntPtn.irA
Fountain pump, always keeping the liquid
well srfirred. Ono common pail of tho liquid
will.suflk-o for tho largest tree. A teaspoon
ful of tho poison is enough for a pailful of
water. For a large orch ird common barrel
should be used, drawn in a wag n. I prefer
to have the burrob stand on end with a clove
movable float with two holes through it, one
for the pipe or hoso from the pump and ts
other for a stirrer. If very large orchards
are to be treated a good force pump should
be fasten J to the barrel In western
New York the handle of the pump
is attached to the wagon wheel, so that
no hand jower is required other than
to drive the team and manage the pipe
which carries tha spray. The spray may be
caused by a fine perforated nozzle or a
cyclone nozzle. The finer it is the less liquid
will lie required. The important thing is to
scatter the spray on all the fruit, and get
just as little on as possible. Tho larva Is
killed by eating the poison, and we find that
the faintest trace suffices for the purpose.
Again, the poison should bo applied early,
by the time tho fruit is the siza of a small
pea. I have found one such application to
work wonders. There is no doubt but that
the first application, followed by ono or two
others at intervals of two or three weeks,
would be more thorough, yet J hnve found
one application, made early, so effective that
I have wondered whether it Is best or neces
sary to makfl mora than one application. I
do think, however, that it must bo early.
In May ami June the calyx of the apple is
up, and to the poison is retained sufficiently
long to kill most all of the insects.
One more count in favor of this treatment
is the further good we receive by killing the
several phytophagous larva; that attack tho
foliage of the apple at this early twiiwl when
defoliation is so harmful. Thus the terrible
canker worm, tho several destructive leaf
rollers which even eat out the very buds, and
that old pest, tho tent caterpillar, are all
made to bite the sod. Very likely, too, the
plum gougor, which so d- forms the a-pple in
Wisconsin, may also find in this lemedy its
death warrant
The danger from this practice I have
proved to be nothing at all. The microscope
and chemical analysis have both shown tli it
all tho poison has been removed longliefoie
we wish to eat tho fruit. The wind no le.
tl an the rain helps to effect this removal, as
I have shown by putting the poison on plants
sheltered from all rains. Oi coursa we
should not turn stock into an orchard till a
heavy rain lias washed the poison from all
herbage under the trees.
Where one farmer did not fool able to
afford the pump several might buy ono in
partnership and use it turn about Spray
ing once a week for a month, begintr'n just
as the apples go out of bloom, w ill cure ihe
worst orchard that grows, not only of the
codling moth, but also of the cnt'rpHlar an 1
other jests. Its use has surh marked effect
that wbere one side of a tre has been
sprayed and the other side left, as an eiix-i i

Homemade Cheese.
The following plain and simple met jol of
making cheese is given by The American
Agriculturist in a late number: Th" pan
containing the milk must be placed in an
other pan holding water, to prevent scois h
ing the milk. Heat ami jxmr it into the uia.-
of milk in the tub, until all reaches d. gs.
A id sufficient prrpared rennet to coagulate
the mi k in forty-live minutes. Wt-en tho
mass readily splits apart by pre-.-i.ng ta
Eager in it, cut into blocks with the curd
knife. Let it rest for fifteen minutes. Ni
careful break tha curd by slowly Uftim I-
with the hands, fingers apart to tha surfao
of the who,-, and when well broken let it rest
fifteen minutes. Now dip off a por
tion of the whey i ito pans on the
itove, and continue break iug the curds
until tho 'u of chestnuts, and
continue pouring in the warm whey, until
the mass roaches 08 deg. Let it rest for half
an hour, when it must be r.irred slowly until
tha curds show a firm oonsistoney. Press
some together in the band, and when re
leas!., if it readily falls to pieces, it U ready
for draining. Throw a cloth strainer over
the tub, aud dip oft the whey down to the
curd; then put the strainer on a willow
clothes, bnsket and dip the curd into it to
drain. Break up the curds with the hands,
and when pretty dry, salt at the rate of foiir
ounces of salt to ten pounds of curd ; mix it
thoroughly and put to press. After the
che-se has been four hours in the press, turn
and press atain, leaving it in over night,
when it may bo removed to the shelf. Rub
w.th butter, an I turn daily until ripe. Small
chaoses need no biudagi r.nd little pressure.
Drains In Clay Soils.
Water soaks slowly through clay, espe
cially when it has been cultivated thoroughly.
If underdvains nr run in clay fields there is
danger that at the upir end, if considerable
water flnvs in, it will carry with it sediment
and thus close up the tile. To prevent this
sink a well at the head of tho ditch, two or
three feet lower than the bottom of the out
let. This will hold the dirt, and by clearing
out once a year tha drain will keep in order
forever. Where the drains run through
clays the water will soak down to them
belter after the fronts of a few winters have
oporieJ tho soil.
I'reservlntj Fggs.
The very low prlco of eggs has this year
come unusually early, and it is now so much
lower than it has averaged of late years that
the chances are rather for an advance lief ore
1 fall. Certainly egs at present rates are
I cheap foul, and whoever will preserve them
until winter will be pretty sure of a profit
lh'pping the egg in strong limo water and
then packing in salt is a safe way to presorvo
thein. They should be in a tight box, whic i
should bo turned over every two or three
days to prevent tho yolk from settling down
so as to touch the sholL
For I'ntato Hugs.
Faris green or London purpl", to destroy
the potato bug, is more economically applied
with nlaster or rround evrwuin than with
water, and the results are bMter. Mix one
part of poison with one hundred parts, by
weight, of plaster. Too much of tho poison
I injures the fobage. If sufficient ore is used
j iu the thorough mixture of tho substance,
Purls green can lx used in the p opurtion of
' one to ono hundred and fifty.
Cause of Had Hotter.
One cause of much of tho bad butter in
market is the unclean condi.ion of many
' farmers' cellars. Decaying vegetab'ot taint
the air, and their odors are al.orla'.l by tho
I milk, to reappear in whatever is made from
! it. If tho meat barrel become nt all
tainted it should hi at once removed. In
fact, wherever milk and cream are kept in
cellars they should !e iu different rooms
from the pork barrel.
Thing to Do and to Know.
More than 1,003,000 trees were planted in
Nebraska on Arbor day.
FA little food at milking time will make a
cow give down hor milk.
Three valnnble implements on tho farm
are tho Climax disk hnrrow, the Acme har
row and the McColm pulverizer.
An Iowa farmer says that he succeeds well
with wire fence for hogs. Ho uses wire with
jiosts a rod apart He puts the first four
wires only four inches apart at the bottom.
Apple Tree Hark or Scale I.onse.
Professor Cook reconimenils a remedy
for thu He writes of it: Tho apple scale,
or bark louse, is very common and destruc
tive. This is often called the oyster shell
bark louse and is known in science as
mytilaspis porno, am boucha.
The illustration shows at the top how the
bark looks with the scales upon it The
seiiles appear from August to Juno. Under
neath them are millions of infinitesimal white
egfT4- To the naked eye they look like a
white powder. Magnified they look like the
egg seen to the right of the piece of burk in
the picture. In June they hatch as yellow
ish lice. These spread all ' over the tree aud

;!' its jUieos. By August they in turn are
developed fully, secrete the yellowish v. bite
settle and Iiy eggs under it. They often de
stroy whole large trees.
PROFESSOR COOK'S REMF.nV.
The old remedy, soft soap, or a strong so
lution of tho same, will surely vanquish this
enemy if it is applied in early Juno and aain
three weeks Inter. I have proved the eflhaoy
of this treatment over and over again. Tho
trees at once put on new vigor, and in a
hort time only dead lice could bo found.
To apply this specific I know of no better
way than to use a cloth and scrub by haii.l.
To be sure we can. if dainty, use a bru-h
like a shoe bru-h, but I like to go at it with
a pood cloth, when, with sleeves rolled up, I
make pretty sure that no louse scapes.
For the jmt few yeirs I have changed the
substance by adding crude carbolic aci I,
which I think improves it, e-pecially if but
one application is to be made, and we knotr
that at this busy season tho second applica
tion U apt to be neglected.
I heat to the boiling point one quart of
soft soap to two gallons of water, an I while
still hot thoroughly stir in ona pint of crude
eai liolic aci I. This may be applied as lie
tore. This eirbolio acid mixture letaius itd
virtue. I think, longer than does th p
r lone, and ;o is especially desirable when
but one application Is to be made, a de

Kedfern Ires Designs.
The following are selected from some de
signs kindly sent us by the Rodferns' New
York house. They are quiUs new, having
just arrived from London.
They are very stylish and quite unlike
most of the patterns that have been issued
heretofore. The designs need no particular
explanation. Thoy are simply made, with
large tournures and are very high in the
neck. The gigantic tournure is especially
noticeable It is evidently the last tre
mendous splurge, so to speak, of the bustle
before it vanishes altogether. The gown on
the left U of plain wool or gingham goods,
with skirt plaited on the sides and back, and
draped very high and fulL The plain front
is braided and fastened with large buttons
at one or both sides. Basque cut with vest
front and coat collar. Vest and sleeve at
the wrist bra'-ded to match skirt
KKDFERX SUMMER GOWNS.
The gown on the right is more elaborate,
though that, too, is rather simple. It is of
combination plain and flowered goods,
trimmed with a plain, darker color in panels,
and on the revers at tho waist, and on tho
cuffs and collar. The skirt at the back Is
plain. Over it is a long polonaise, drap.-d
slightly at the back. It is open at tho side
of the wai-t, the opening concealed beneath
the revers. It is fastened by small butto.is
placed out of sight Tho front of tho jh1o
naise is cut in one piece. At the side where
the opening is a portion of it is tucked iu
folds under tho back, just lielow tho waist.
This gives tin graceful, wrinkled apron front
now so fashionable. The folds are gathered
closely, almost like a knot, at the point where
tho front is lapped under the side.
Men's Clothes.
The new materials for men's spring and
summer clothing show a preference for light
colors, and tho use of plaids and str;ps. Iu
cutting new garments, coats and vests are
made to ojiou lower at the neck, showing
more of the scarf and something of tho shirt
bosom. Sack coats ore now slightly curved
in nt the waist in English fashion. Trousers
are wider, aud ure quite straight.
The only change in evening dress suits is
the more general use of white vests. Black
vests are of course still worn, and three or
four vests are sometimes sent home with
each black dress coat White satin vests
have a slight vine of embroidery as a border
iu tho fine needlework done in conveuts;
black satin and cloth vest are similarly
wrought The swallow-tail coat U of tho
fine black cloth culled ca-hmere, and is cut
with very low In pels widely fuced wiih silk;
the trousers are of tho sama cloth.
Norfolk jacket suits for tho oountry are
made of bomespuus and cheviots iu large
pluids of gray, brown and mixed color.
The 1 a'ted jacket has wide box plaits and
knee breeches to be worn with ribled stock
ings. The regular shooting suit and the
country suits worn by Englishmen ore of tan
and yellowish brown, in blocks or burs, or
plaided with ecru, made with a plaited and
belted cout, with a cup to match. The very
largo trousers are then caught iu at th
kni es with a wide bnnd of doeskin, an 1 nre
worn with long buttoned gaiter of tho doe
skin. Cream white grounds are the fancy of the
moment for neckties for nil hours of the day
and evening. They conio in long strips two
inches wide, and must bo tied by the wearer
in tho slender, small, closely-tied knot called
the sailor's knot. Some flat folded scarfs
are shown, but these are also now made nar
rower, and tho sailor knot is preferred.
Those coma in plain cream white satin, China
crnpe, or ottoman silk for day weddings and
receptions. For more goneral wear they
liavo dashes, lines, bars, checks, dots or
fanciful small figures of color blue, bla de,
brown or rod aud are made of silk, surah,
foulard, Louisino, or exquisitely fine India
sillt. White pique scarfs aro shown in tho
amn shap.t, embroidered with whit) or col
ored dots.
Plain sliielJ-shnpo l shirt bosoms nre still
made of three thicknesses of linen, without
ornamental stitching. Those, are fn-tened
by two studs of white enamel, aud aro worn
for day and evening aliko.
Black so 'ks roniain in favor for dress occa
sions, and only very dark sock are worn nt
any timo with low shoe. Very narrow
stries of a color, or black with white, are
also shown in silk and lisle thread hos.
Buttoned gaiters of calfskin aro worn in the
street, and of patent leather for dress; they
nre now made with wider toes, round, or
ha'f round, and with low hcls.
Stiff liili black silk hats for dress have
been more worn than nt any previous spring
season, and will U followed in the summer
by light jiearl colored mil silvery drab cassi
niero huts of similar styl.-s. liurp.T s Bazar.
t'nt rimmed Straw Hats.
Any way one likes is fashionable for hat
trimmings this season, in front, behind or at
the sid'.
The illustration shows a few of the most
fashionable shapes. They aro much hand
somer after being trimmed.
rVTRIMVrD HAT.
At the top of the picture is an Vli ve green
English straw with danls of cream-colored
straw interwoven. 0 l the left b I w is a
snuff-colored straw hat with wi.li poke
brim sloping narrower to the lmck. T.i'-re
it i turned up into a s raw brai l bow. Oa
the right, opposite, is a bronzj straw hat
with a brim that is narrow in front, and
wide at the back, where it is turned up iu a
high point At the bottom is a very pretty
round hat of white open workstr .v, wi.h
high crown an d round brim.
Masques.
Basques for general wear are not at all
changed in shape from those worn for two
season past, with pointed front short over
the hips, and with postilion-plaited backs.
The doublo-breisted front, the one cut
diagonally, and outlined with a single velvet
rever, the Moliere vest, the surplice, plaited
on the shoulders and shirred at the llt, and
the plain bodice simply crossed with nun'
folds of the dress fabric, all remain iu
fashion. The shoulder seams are still short;
and the sleeve is still high shouldered, but
not made at all full at the top of the at m
hole as formerly.
Lace Dresses.
Lace skirt, con istiug of wide flouncing:
or narrow plaiting set upon foundations of
surah, and worn under polonaises of various
elegant summer silk and other rich mate
rials, will bo among the most charming
dresses for summer wear, for either day or
evening toilets. Shot silk w ill often !? used
for the slips of princess dresse made wholly
of lace, and the ribbon trimmings used upon
the dress will match exactly the two shade
of the changeable silk foundation pale go d
and mauve tea rose and turquoise blue, and
pink aud silver being favorite combinations.
For Hoys.
For small lioys to wear in tho country are
Imported jersey suits of soft yet strong wool
with shirt an 1 kuee breeches, one of which
must be plain and tho other striped ncros,
as a navy blue and rel shirt, with plain blue
trousers, and vice versa. Fashionable and
sensible mothers choose theo simple, easily
fitted and durable suits, with jersey caps to
match in dark colors, for comfortable sum
mer garments that will permit rough usage,
and endure the small boy's usual disregard
-if his clothes. Light blue and while suit
are also shown.
rin for Eyeglasses.
Ladies requiring eyeglasses will find the
use of a new safety pin, made both in gold
and silver, which is provided with a hook for
holding the glasses. As the safety pin can
be worn either on a dress or on a mantle, it
conveniently holds tho gla-ses always at
hand and saves the wearer, as is too often
the case, from entangling tho eye glasses iu
the watch chain.
FASHIONLETS.
Full skirts and round waists an the fea
tures of littla girls' frocks.
American ginghams are very flue this
season, and some ure seen in Japanese
patterns.
Worth, who does not U-liovo in plaiting
nnd millings for mourning dresses, says:
"Crape may be as rich in effect, as velvet
but its iei'uiiar grace is lost when it is
snipped into lutlj pieces.
Changeable silks and satins overshot with
rioe dots, minute polk.i dots, miniature
foliago and floral devices, nnd tiny geo
metrical figure are elegant, choice and
novel. TIiomj fabrics are worn a olonuises
or as bixlices and tunica over plain silk or
satin skirts, or over those of striHd
materials whose colors correspond with
those of tho shot silk overdresses.
For ladies who do not like to wear a stiff
bustle or tournure, tho best substitute is a
cambric petticoat with flounces all the way
from the waist line to the bottom on tha back,
breadth, which the laundres should bo in
itructed to starch very stilt and smooth w itii
her band, but not iron, so us to retain all the
starch.
An odd and very pretty bonnet is of orange
surah. It is studded with ornament of jet
and has face finish of crepe do chine, plaited
and in shells, each shell eentered with one of
tho jet ovals with which the outside i
spotted. Strings of biai-k velvet, front
trimming loops of crepe, with upstanding
