Washing a separator is not a very difficult taBk if dona soon after separating. Tho water for washing should bo warm, but not hot enough to cook tho onril on any of tho parts.

During tho past threo weeks the prosenoe of tho Hessian fly iu tho wheal has beon tho cause of much in terest among tho farmers of south eastern Nobruska, and in somo locali ties much anzioty has beon folt as to the outoomo of tho attaok, Tho af footed area extends from Richardson and Nemaha counties north to tho Platte river and west to Kearnoy county, but tho serious injury is prac tically confined to tho eztroum south, uastern counties, Whon tho injury first began ,to becomo quito obvious, the vaBt majority of insoots had al ready attained the fully grown larval or even tho flaxseed (puparium) stage, which meant that tho absorption of the sap of tho plant had praotiaally ceased and that the insoot would be no further aotlvo drain on tho vitality of the plaut. Somo of tho Holds, however, woro infested as high as 30 to HO per cent, and thcBo woro loft in a muoh weakened oondition with a prob ability of sorioua loss by falling straw before harvest. Many suoh fields were plowed up and planted to corn. The great majority of tho fields, how ever, are muoh moro lightly attacked, and under favorablo weather condi tions givo good promiso of making a crop in spite of the fly attack. In order to avoid tho Hessian fly this fall, tho Nebraska College of Agricult ure advises that the flelds should bo plowed early and deeply and subsi queutly oultivatod to obtain a com pact, well-pulverized seed bod and to keep tho volunteer grain oradioatod. The sowing should then bo delayed until about Ootobor 10, and flelds which have been in wheat for sovoral sueoessive seasons should be avoided, wherever praotioablo. aqitfa to get married?

This little book Is bavins tlio largest circulation of any of Its kind and is conceded by Christians everywhere to be the most helpful. If Christians allow the rush and crush of selfish ambition to deprlvo them of their dally portion of heaven ly food, they must not be surprised If they grow spiritually leaner day by day, and If the peaco of God gives place In their hearts to tho discontent which Is growing In the world, not withstanding tho multiplication of our comforts nnd privileges. Daily EeavcnliManna contains a col lection of Scripture texts with appro priate quotations for every day in the year. Surely tho little tltho of tlmo dally spent in partaking of its morsels of heavenly counsel cannot fall to profit nil who partake. It Is published to do good not for profit.
