He was descanting on the Richmond Monument, and telling what the Government ought to do to suppress the "rebel demonstration. From that he turned tj a tirade of abuse of Southern men and women an especially the women, whom he cbarg. ed with the grossest Immorality.

"Well, I can't help tba'," said th big fellow. , "My mother and sisters are Southern women," continued tbs young, man without noticing the interruption and in the same dangerously quiet way. "Well," said tha blatherskite con temptuously, "I don't know but what tbey are the same a " He did not get any further.

Thltis the best general rule in hsy making that can belaid down. Use horse power whenever possible ia handling bay. It costs less, It Is quicker, and ths hay will usually be better mads than by band.

The Hessian fly, so destructive to wheat, Is becoming annually more abundant In North Carolina, and unless prompt and suitable preventive meas ures are taksn this pest will effectually absorb what little profits the wheat grower now realizes. Although tha Hessian Fly causes damages exceeding many millions of dollars annually, there is no pest mora effectually con trolled by prompt and systematic mess uresv : At harvest the cutter bar of the reap N er should be set a- high as possible, so at to avoid carrying off in tha straw tie dormant pupn (or Incased worm), bid den in the sheaths of tbe lowermost leaves, As soon as the grain Is re mov ed, the stubble should be carefully and thoroughly burned over, thus destroy ing all the pupae bidden therein. The field should then be sown In cow peas to be turned under io tbe fall. To make tbe stubble burniug remedy entirely successful it must be practiced by all the wheat growers of any neigh borbood. A single neglected field will breed flies enough to, stock a whole county. For Individual srbwera tha - 9 following precautions will be found profitable I About September 1, sow around tba field lnteoded for winter wheat a nar rowt strip of white wheat, such as . Diehl. This will soon serve as a trap to receive the eggs of the flies, and when tbe flies bave ceased to work In it plow tbe slip under as dseply a pos sibls and then proceed to sow the main crop. ' Where flies bave been very abundant In tbe spring It will be best to postpone sowing the main crop ua til after the first sharp frost. Tbs Hes sian fly Is very delicate and cannot en dura cold. Another precaution la to tow for tbe main crop only red or yel low wheat. These are strong growers and have very bard leavea and culms. Tbey are, therefore, less liable to dam age by the fly.
