TO DESTBOY GUT WORMS.
Editor Tribune: The "Ameri
can Florist" for June 1st, gives the
following remedy for destruction of
cut worms, which seems to be rea
sonable, and as I hear much com
plaint of the ravages of these pests
this season, it is worth while to
ry it: Paris green 3 lbs., sugar 3
bs., wheat bran 80 lbs. Mix dry,
and sift on the ground inhabited by
the worms.
For small gardens and flower
beds about one-twelfth of this
quantity would probably be ample.
Yours truly,
F. E. Bullard.
FAIR "WARNING.
As one of the indignant citizens
whose slumber was assaulted by
the horrible dim of the charivari
performance last night, I would
most anxiously wish to know it it
is necessary for a citizen to file a
complaint before our officers will
act in the matter of. suppressing;
this lawlessness. If this is needed
I shall in the future know how to
proceed, and an information will
be jgrompl31odithtlie.prjpjer
officers. This a fair warning.

C. A. Baldwin has just returned
from Elm Island where he laid out
three irrigation ditches, one of them
in this county, and the second over
the line in Buffalo county, the third
one is in Hall and Adams counties,
he head being in Adams. Some
thought the surveyer and assist

hrough water knee deep in doing
he work. But the ram is not going

The people will now replant their

M. A. Daugherty last week had
an interview with parties representing-
a Chicago firm which is looking"
up the irrigation district bonds
with a view to purchasing them.
He states that he has no doubt now
of the district being- able to find
market for the bonds his district
proposes to vote. He also had a
talk with them concerning- the pro
ject to organize on the South Platte.
They at first looked upon the plan
with suspicion on account ot the
river going dry during the summer
months. But in considering a
system of reservoirs to utilize the
spring, fall and winter flow, they
were favorably impressed, as they
have great taith in the reservoir
plan. Mat will go to Omaha Mon
day to see these same parties again,
at which time Chas. Ross, the en
gineer who is making- out estimates
of the work, will submit his report

Farmings by irrigation you use
water when you want it; depending"
upon rainfall you use it when you
can get it. There is a distinction
and a difference here that is quite
fully appreciated. But it is still
growing upon the people, and it
will one day result in a windmill
and reservoir system of supple
mentary irrigation for a large scope
ot country that regularly receives
an adequate annual rainfall, but
which in point of time is never
properly apportioned so as to pro
duce tne best effects in the cultiva
tion of the crops grown on those
lands. This is a feature of irriga
tion that is receiving the attention
of thinking" men to-day as much as
is any of the seemingly more im
portant features. The need of it
has long" been felt, The

aunts thrown in. A dry. open win
ter has been very favorable to the
propagation of insect life in all its
varied forms. It demonstrates the
need of active measures in the
hands of intelligent farmers for the
protection of grains and fruits from
the depredations of these hungry
hordes. Readers of agricultural
papers have opportunity to become
acquainted with the most approved
methods of combating these pests
through the use of poisons. But,
do they practice what they know?
That is the most serious question
of all. It is the same old circum
stance: "One man can lead the
pony to the brink, but twenty
thousand cannot make him drink."
It is one thing" to get the farmer to
read and to know, but it is quite
another to get him to act. But
progress is continually being" made
along" this and kindred lines with
the average farmer, and it is well
"St
that it is so, for with the advance
ment of agriculture in any country
the obstacles to be overcome never
cease to multiply. It is out of the
question for human ingenuity to
eliminate these difficulties as they
arise, but they can be kept in check
and it is the farmer's business to
see that this is done. Nebraska
