To rid the kitchen of flies, take a small stove shovel; just heat it red but. and pour over it a few drops of carbo- lic acid, having closed the doors and windows. In a few minutes open the room and the flies will be found to have disappeared entirely.

Destroytu* Trees - Everybody should have a close look at their orchard and ornamental tires. A worm half an inch long is attacking apple trees, pear trees. plum trees and some ornamental trees, with serious results. The woi ens appear io small numbers on a tree at first, but in a few days they are a wrigling mass of thousands. Their work commences at the bottom of a branch, and in a few hours not a leaf is left and the limb soon becomes dead. Their pre- sence is noted by a web, and if not checked at once the whole tree is soon destroyed. Some use a smudge to burn the pests out, while others re- move the branch entirely and burn it and the tormentors. There are many who have not given the best attention and it Is spreading ruin with great rapidity. Mes;rs.
