A correspondent writes U as fal
lows: "I was cxastffiing my fruit trees and
found a little blaek bug that bores a
small holo iato the heart of the limb just
above the bud, which kills the limb. I
am at a low to know how to stop them,
if we cannot get a remedy for this pest,
we certalniy cannet raise any epples in
this country.
(This is something new to us. some of
our readers may know somcthiag of this
insect spoken af by our correspondent,

evil, if so they will confer a favor aa oar

There is quite a large amaunt of small
grain sown, almost every one is through
sowing. D. Voller, Henry Weichtman,
and James Watt have a considerable
amount of nice hedging started. We
understand that fcmes Watt has rented
hisfartnand intends to pay special atten
tion to raising hedga plaats. Voller snd
Weichtman are farming about 250 acres
of land' tHts-year. Their herl of about
800 sheep are in splendid condition.
Mr. Stratton, has Quite a large herd of

Ooe week ego last Saturday aa aaaaual
and unbecoming scene of excitement
took place at the United Brethren sod
church in this vicinity. It appears that
a Temperance society was organised aad
I had obtaiaed persaissioq from the trus
tee of the house to aaw a meeting in
said house at the time above referred to.
Is due time the trustee opened tbe boose
and built a fire. The temperence peo
ple were rather late in coming together
on account of this tardiness the trustee
became impatient and proceeded to put
out the lights and close the door, but just
at this moment the Yioa President
(brother of trustee) and some others made
their sjpienranaa and demtnded the use
ef the houae-, but the- trustee insisted tbat
it was now late and tbat they had batter
all return to their home at oaee aad eoa
sider the enterprise a first olass fiilore.
One word brought on another until one
of the temperance sympathisers began to
shower his "blessings" upon the religious
head of the trustee. Whieh roused his
righteons ind gnation to such a pitch as
to prompt him to saad his boy home for
bU gun, with threats of shooting the off
ending individual, but all lived over the
crisis to tell the story.
Such actions upon the part of profess
ors of Christianity or'temperencc, reflects
no credit upon "either the cau of'Chrit
tianity or Tem perence, aad wa bene ' to
hear no mora of it.
