V--,, - It is the opinion of Entomold gist Sherman that the San Jose scale cannot be exterminated, He lyt o one need expect to" 'exter minate' or get rid of the San Jose established in his orohard, no mat ' ter what measures he uses. It is here to stay, and our growers need to recognize it as a permanent pest, to be fomrht reeularlv and intelligently. If this be done there . is nordifBculty in keeping it in gojoaoniiroi ; dud me man who starts a with.the idea that he can Exterminate it is apt to merely de ceive Mmsfflf. We need to look at this tiling in the light of common sense experience. We don't expect to 'exterminate' potato beetles, but the means of control are such that no potato grower need lose a crop from them. We do not expect to 'exterminate' the flies in our houses, but the meaus of control enable us to. reduce their number and control them. No insect pest which has so many means of spread has eyer been absolutely exterminate.d when once thorough ly established. It is a matter of control, not of 'extermination.' " A View oMiie Tariff. Why was a revision of the tariff undertaken? Was it not in re sponse to a demand from the peo ple, who belived that the Dingley rates were to high and should be reduced? It has been admitted by certain persprfs who were prom inent in the construction of that tariff that it was made so high in order that there might be a margin for reductions to be caused by treats of reciprocity. After these had een negotiated the Senate woul i not accept them . Did the people ask, last year, for a revision that would increase Dingley rates or even re-enact them? Did they ask for the Payne bill, which, as Mr. Payne admitted would in crease the average rate from 44.16 to 45 72 per cent? Was an in crease or a re-enactment of the present tariff promised to them by Judge Taft and the Republican party? They have hoped that this tariff legislation would reduce the cost of living. The index number ob tained by one of our great com mercial agencies from the average prices of groups of commodities show 9 that the cost of living is higher now by 37 per cent, than-it was when the present tariff law was enacted. A majority of our " peop e believe that this cost can be r duced by a revision down ward of the tariff rates. Such a review n many of them expected, will be disappointed. New York Iudep.ndent.

The man behind the hoe is more important than the man behind the gun. It is the farmer that keeps things stirred up ' that raises the biggest crops. Very fine flower seeds can be easily and evenly sown by the use of a dredge box. It's a sign of a hard year for the family when the wife carries the stove and the husband the pipe. Some men marry a 'girl becasue she is a great talker. Better get a jta iking machine; you can stop it when you get tired. Don't leave an ax sticking where lame one will fall on it, or stick scvthes. hatches or tools overhead to fall and hurt some one. Plant trees, plant flowers, plant roses, plant smiles, plant good deeds every day; and above all plant the feet in the way of right doing.

Things that snap under you often take the snap out of you. If you want to know just how good a larmer a man is, go way back on his place where few eyes ever re"st and see how things are going on thera. If everything is neat and shipshape there, you may depend upon it that the man is a good farmer. Ihe best investment farmers can make is in giving children a good start in life.

Bad roads and scrubby stock go together.

Tarring corn : In coating eeed coru with coal-tar as a protection against crows and blackbirds, put the grain into a pail and pour on enough warn water to cover it. Add a teaspoodful of tar to a .eck, and stir well. Throw the corn out on a sieve or in a basket to drain, and then stir in a few handfuls of land plaster (gypsum.) Do not pour the tar on the dry seed. Farm Journal. A New Agricultural Conscience. We must develop a new agricul tural conscience in this country. We must come to the time when a man will be aB much ashamed of a galled, guilled, unkempt field as of a dirtv ragged, ill-smelling coat ; as much ashamed of a thin, starved, mistreated horse, and when he will tae as much pleas use in restoring a worn-out field to life and comeliness, makfng the waste places glad, as be would in feeding a half-starved brute it self mistreated by some brute in human form. The Almighty has o".v3:i t!:o land as a heritage for all generationsand we must repeat that the man who abuses and wastes this heritage (in which the Lord gives him only a life -interest after all) is just as culpable, just as guilty, as a guardian who misuses the heritage of orphaned and defenseless children entrusted to his care.
