The following valuable article from
rof. C. V. ItHey to the Scientific
American, vre give our readers for Its
thorough explanation and timely sug
gestions on the subject of bot and bot
flies:
"A correspondent, engaged In the
tanning business, aBks why 'wormals'
get Into the backs of cattle, and how
they undergo their transformations.
Almost all cloren footed animals,
and many other herblverous species,
are infested with both. These are leg
Jess grubs which fall into three cate
gories; 1. Gastric, or those which
are swallowed by the animal Infested,
and which live in the stomach in a
bath of chyle. 2 Cervical, or those
which crawl up the nostrils and in
habit the frontal sinuses. 3. Cutane
ous, or those which dwell In the tu
mors just beneath the skin. They are
nil the larvie or early state of two
winged flies (dijrfcra) belonging tolhe
flamily cciridcc, characterized by hav
" lng the mouth parts entirely obsolete.
and popularly called gad fles or bot
flies. In the first series of which the
horse bot (gaslrqphilus cqui) is the
most familiar example, the eggs are
hatched by the female fly to the hairs
of the body, and principally on those
parts of the body within easy reach
rjf tho animal's mouth. The egg
opens with a lid, and the young mag
got upon hatching clings to the tongue
b tho animal licks Itself, and is thus
carried into tho fore-stomach, to
which it holds tenaciously by a series
of spines around the body, but princi
pally by a pair of sharp hooks at the
head.. When fully grown, they leave
their post with tho fieces, burrow in
the ground and undergo the final
transformation. In the second kind,
of which tho sheep bot ozstrus ovis)
will Berve as an example, the egg gen
erally hatches within the body of the
parent, and tho young grub is depos
ited alive on the slimy nostrils of its
victims.
By means of a pair of long and
sharp hooks at tho head, and of bauds
of minute spines on the venter, the
young grub works its way into the
sinuses of the head, and when full
grown permits Itself to be sneezed
out, when it also burrows Into the
ground and transforms. In the third
kind, the parent lays the egg on those
parts of tho body which cannot well
be reached by the mouth of the ani
mal attacked, and the young grub,
which soon hatches, burrows into the
flesh and subsists upon the pus and
diseased matter which results from
the wound Inflicted and the irritation
constantly kept up. The well-known
wortnal or ox bot hypoderva bovis), fco
common along the backs of our cat
tle, and especially of yearlings and
"two-year-olds, and dre'aded as muuh
by the tanner as by the animal it in
fests, is typical -of this kind. Resid
ing in a fixed spot, wo no longer find
in this species the strong hooks at the
head, and the spines around the body
ore sparse and very minute, the parts
of the mouth are soft and fleshy.
All these bot larva breathe princl-
' .pally through two splraoles placed at
the blunt and squarely clooked end of
the body, and in the ox bot these are
very largo and completely fill up the
hole to the tumor in which the ani
mal dwells. When ready to trans
form, it backs out of its residence,
drops, and burrows Into the ground,
and these, like the other species, con
tracts and undergoes its final change
to the fly. The eggs of tliis ox bot are
elllptio-ovoid, slightly compressed,
and have at the attached end a five
ribbed cap or stout stalk with which
to strongly attach them to the skin of
tho back.
The gastric bots are best prevented
by proper grooming of the hordes to
remove the eggs or nits from tho fore
legs and flanks. Horses, too, that are
properly stabled and kept in tho
shade during the hotter summer
months are less frequented by the
parent fly. Scarcely- any mode of
drugging will dislodge the bots when
once they are attached to the stomach,
without Injuring the parasitized ani
mal. Cervical bots are also with diffi
culty dislodged, except when they are
full grown and ready to naturally let
go their hold. Animals may, how
over, be measurably protected, by en
abling them to bury their noses when
the parent fly is seeking to deposit.
This they will Instinctively do, if por
tions of their pastures be turned up
and the ground kept loose. Thecuta
neous species may bo removed by
pressure of the thumb and finger, or
destroyed by tho application of kero
sene. If removed while small, tho
wound In the skin heals up, and no
hole will ocour in the hide.
Dead-Heads !
There are peoplo in every commu
nity who think that every newspapor
man is a dead-head. The New York
Evening Post hits this class of people
u severe back hauded blow which we
think they well deserve. "In case
anything happens to a person, he
hastens to the nearest newspaper and
demands that the editor shall wield
his pen and shed ink in his vindica
tion and defense. And if the jaded
editor does not with clacrlty espouse
the cause of his patron ho will make
an enemy for life. 'Members of the
press' are literally hunted down by all
sorts of people who have axes to
grind. The managers of public meet
ings who do not And reporters at the
desk suffer pangs of disappointment;
the judge who sonoriously blows his
noso before reading bis opinion, looks
anxiously for the stenographer; the
preacher who descants upon some
epecial subject, loses Bpirit if the rep
resentavies of the press are not there;
even the burglar on his way to State's
prison, covets a talk with the news
paper man. Yet the outside barbarian
thinks all newspaper men are "dead
heads, J a.nd envy them the fine times
they have in the way of free tickets
to all manner of shows. There never
was a greater mistake. People don't
seem to realize that on the part of the
journalist, it is merely a matter of
business that the reporter goes to
these places, eo attractive to outsiders,
much as tho horse goes to the show
because he must do so. We venture
to say that four-fifths of these enter
tainments are to journalists an Intol
erable bore The press is the victim
of the public's rapacious and unceas
ing demand without pay. Let us
have the boot on the right leg."
Milk for Gastric Derangements.
Areriwit in Lc Courrier Medical, on
the use of milk in hot weather, states
that his attention was directed to the
subject by noting the value of milk in
dysentery, ulcer of the stomach, and
variouB acute and chronic grastro-in-testiual
affections, and he therefore
employed milk in tho treatment of
these gastric derangements so fre
quently induced by high temperature.
In very hot weather small draughts
of milk are found to relieve thirst and
to render unnecessary the drinking
of many fluids, which, though they
may allay the thirst, are liable to pro
duce some disorder at tho fame time.
A case la cited in which, during the
fearfully hot weather of last summer,
gastric deraugement was produced In
the patient, with great thirst and
cramping In the bowels ; laudanum
had been taken without success, but
relief followed the administration of
warm milk a small cup every quar
ter of an hour by the next day.
After Death.
Bobert Dale Owen conducted the
funeral services held over the grave of
his wife, with whom he had lived and
deeply loved for forty years. He said
on that occasion :
"I do not believe and here lepeak
also for her whose departure from
among us wo mourn to-day I do not
believe more firmly in these trees that
spread their shade over ub, in this bill
on which we stand, in those sepul
chral monuments we see around ub
here than I do that human life once
granted, perishes never more.
She believed, as I believe, that the
one life succeeds the other without
interval, save a brief transition slum
ber, It may be of a few hours only.
Again, I believe, as she did, In
tho meeting and recognition of
friends In heaven. While we mourn
here below, there are joyful reunions

Kaiser William's Habits-
He rises at six or half-past six, ap
pears on the promenade about eight,
drinks water at the prescribed inter
vals until half-past nine, then break
fasts, and every-other-day also takes a
bath between half-past ten and half
past eleven. During the morning he
receives civil and military reports,
dines about four, generally Inviting
company, and then receives a report
on foreign affairs, a Cabinet courier
arriving every morning, and the tele
graph office being open day and night.

The Names of Nails.
The term "four penny ,' "six pen
ny. ' "ten penny," etc., as applied to
nails, means this: "Four penny"
"means four pounds to the thousand
nails, "slx-pciny" six pounds to-the
thousand, and so on. It is an old
English term, and meant, at first,
"ten pounds," "(tho thousand being
understood), but the old Englishman
clipped it to "ten pun," and from that
to "ten punny," and so on it degener
ated until "penny" was substituted
for pound. So, when you ask for four
penny nails, now-a-day, you want
those a thousand of which will weigh
four pounds; but In these degenerat
ing times wo question whether you
will get as many as a thousand In
that weight. When a thousand nails
weigh less than one pound they are
called tacks, brads, etc., and are reck
oned by the ounces (to tho thousand);
so you will see "3-oz,"10-oz," "16-oz,"
on papers of tacks.

Ex-Gov. Moses has been arrested in
South Carolina on the oharge of hay
in issued fraudulent pay certificates
when Speaker of the House in 1872. 1
The charge is probably true, and the
arrest is unquestionably in the inter
ests of good government and decent
morals. It was for the refusal to com
mission this scoundrel as a Judge that
Gov. Chamberlain lost the good will
of the Supreme Court of South Caroli
nathe Chief Justice being the scoun
drel's father. Now it is reported that
Moses will be let off without prosecu
tion, and that he will be used ub a wit
ness to implicate Gov. Chamberlain
and other In the frauds which he com
mitted. He is a scoundrel unworthy
of belief on oath. St. Joe Herald.
"What was he Doing 1
Not long ago a gay young merohant
who lives at the South-end, told his
elderly wife that he was compelled
from considerations of expediency to
take a customer from the country to
the theatre. When his elderly wife
made comments upon the elaborate
naturo of his toilet for a rural person
of the male sex, he replied :
"O, you see, everything depends
upon impressing that sort of people
favorably." At this moment the
merchant's office boy made his appear
ance. "Well," said the deceiving husband
"did you see the gentleman I sentyou
to?"
"Yes, sir," replied the messenger.
"And you told him I had tloketB for
the theatre?"
"Yes, sir ; and he said he was much
obliged to you, and he would be hap
py to go with 3Tou, and he would wait
for you.'
"What waB he doing?" said the un
suspecting wife, carelessly.
"He was just fastening tho strings
of his pullfcack," answerod the Inge
nious youth. He found himself less
than a moment afterwards on the
curbstone, where he listened with a
tweet smile to the shrill sounds of a
woman's voice from within.
Strange Discovery by Divers in Xnfce
Geneva
A strange discovery is reported from
the Lake of Geneva. A tourist having
lost his trunk, two divers were em
ployed to search for it. When they
were below water they found what
they supposed to be a village, sfnee
covered by the lake. Tho statement
led to an investigation of the spot by
the municipal authorities, who took
measures to ascertain tho truth of the
extraordinary aocount of the divers.
On covering tho placid surface of the
water with oil, these latter wero able
to distinguish the plan of a town,
streets, squares, and detached houses
marking the bed of the lake. Tho
ruddy hue which characterizes them
led the two observers to suppose that
the buildings had been covered with
the famouB Vermillion cement whioh
was used by the Celts, Cimbriand tho
early Gauls. There are about two
hundred bouses arranged over an ob-
loner surface, near the middle of
which is a space more open, supposed
to have been used for public assem
blages. At the eastern extremity lies
a large Bquare tower, which was ta
ken for a rook. A superficial investi
gation seems to indicate that the con
struction of these buildings dates from
some centuries boforeour era. Tho
Council of Vaud have decided to have
the site of the buildings enclosed by a
jetty stretching from the land, and to
drain ofrthe water, so as to bring to
light what promises to be one of the
most interesting arcbicologlcal discov
eries of our day. London Telegraph.
A Remarkable Story.
A Confederate soldier from the val
ley of Virginia, in one of the battles
of the late olvll war, was struck In the
head with a minle ball. The ball
passed through the skull, and the sur
geons afraid to probe the wound in
search of it, left tho man to die. In
the oourse of time lie recovered, but
had lost his reason, and was sent to
the insane asylum at Staunton, where
he remained for eleven years. At
length Dr. Fauntleroy, an eminent
physician of that oity, obtained per
mission from the the asylum authori
ties and friends of the insane man to
make a surgical examination of the
head, with the hope of finding tho
ball. He was successful, and found
the ball imbedded on the inside of the
skull and pushing against the brain.
Unable to extraot It with any instru
ment at hand, he took a ohisel and
mortised it out. As boou as the ball
was removed reason resumed its con
trol, and the deranged one was in his
right mind. He sayB that he is not
conscious of anything that occurred
during the Interval of eleven years
from tho time ho was struok on the
battle-field to tho moment the press
ure was removed from the brain, all
was blank to him. Wheeling Regis

The Talmud.
Try on Edwards, In Scribncr's Month
ly says: The Jews, Protestants and
Romanists all agree in receiving as
canonical books of our Old Testament.
But as the Bomanists would add to
these the apocryphal books, so the
Jews insist on adding their oral law.
They say that when the written law
was given to Moses, Insoribed ou two
tables of stone, God also gave another
and verbal law explanatory of the first
which he was commanded not to com
mit to writing, but todeliverdown by
oral tradition. When Moses came
down from the Mount, they tell us
that he first repeated this oral law to
Aaron and his sons, and then to the
seventy, and finally to all the people
each of whom was obliged to repeat it
in his hearing to insure its correot re
memberance. Just before his death,
they saj', he spent a month and six
days in repeating it to them again ;
and then, they assert, hecommitted it
in a special manner to Joshua,
through whom it was Imparted to
Phineas, and so on through the long
'line of prophets, and afterward of
teachers, down to the time of Judah
the Holy, who lived in the second
century, by whom it was committed
to writing lest it should bo lost. This
work consisting of Bix books, is the
famous MiBhna of the Jews, which
with Its Gemara, or commentaries,
constitutes their celebrated Talmud,
in which is comprehended all their
learning and much of their religion as
a people. Tho whole work is held by
them in far higher esteem than the
Bible, so much so, that they Bay tho
Bible Is waterbuttheTalmud la wine ;
and they even dcolare that he who
studies the Bible when he might read
the Talmud does but waste hid time ;
and that to sin against the latter is fur
worse than to sin against the former.
So implict Is their confidence In this
oral law that it Is almost useless to
reason with a Jew out of the Old Tes
tament ; for he is ever ready with an
answer from tho Talmud, with the
authorityof which he Is fully satisfied

The Influence of 3Ian Upon Climate.
The Influence of man upon olimate
has been a favorite subject of late
years, and it is now well known that,
by cutting down forests and draining
the soil, men can materially change
the climate of a country. Some re
cent experiments conducted in Ger
many confirm this belief, by showing
the extent to whioh woods will a fleet
tbe rainfall. Two observatories were
established for the purposoof compar
ison one over a clump of tree forty
feet high, and tbe other over a bare,
sandy plain about 300 yards' from tbe
forest. Both observatories were built
at the same height from the ground.
Twelve months observation showed
that of the total rainfall within that
period 10 per cent, more rain fell over
the trees than over the bare sand dis
tant 330 yards from them. Further,
the air above the wood was oharged
with aqueous vapor to the extent of
10 per cent. In excess of the air over
the barren open soil. The ground, too,
under the trees, retained far more wa
ter than the exposed earth, evapora
tion from tho surface, thanks to its
shade of trees and moss, being only
ono-Bixth of that outside their friend
ly shelter. Those results are valuable
in that they point out a possble means
of improving the condition of sterile
tracts, i. o., by planting trees.

for everything it is recommended. and never knew
it to fall. I have used It In Coltc and Grnbbs, with
my mules and horses, giving them about hair a nut
