Tho sides of this box fold inward, thus caus- ing the sides of the !Wee to overlap one another, and the ends likewise cause a similar lapping in the other direction. The strings which are to tie the fleece are put into place in grooves for them before the fleece is folded. When thus folded Cho strings are tied. The fleece is folded up and tied into a neat roll, the smooth under aide of the wool only showing outward. No illth or tugs should be rolled up with the wool, as this will be found out in time, and will seriously react against the seller. \\'hen no table is at hand, the fleece should be spread similarly on a clean eurface. The sides should then be folded in and the wool rolled up in the opposite direction and similarly tied, using such twine as Ls made for the purpose. When the wool has been thus rolled up: 1l Is next put into sacks awaiting shipment. 'rhe sacks are suspended so that they stand erect, and the respective fleeces aro dropped into this. They are then tramped down or pressed down into the sacks, which aro sewed at the mouth when full, and ars then stored in ony dry place until ready to ship. Wool may be kept some time if necessary, but it is probably true that, taking ono year with another, the price will average as much when the wool has first been re- moved as after It has been stored awhile. The wool is sometimes stored in a ware- house built for the purpose, convenient to some phaco of shipment Of course, there are certain charges, as. a rule, for such storage. When the number of fleeces is small any dry place will answer In which to store the wool, that is free from dust and dirt and protected from the same, and that is safe from injury by wild animals or rodents. Even when the number of fleeces is small, it may mean consider- able to the owner to have them done up nicely and kept in good condition until sold.

When full grown, the caterpillar is about an Inch long and varies in color from greenish yellow to dusky or even dark brown. The body is lined longi- tudinally with narrow, pale stripes, their color increasing in intensity to- ward the middle of the sides of the body. One brood of caterpillars appears an- nually. The winter is passed under ground in the pupa or chrysalis stage. Orchards which are regularly sprayed for fungous disease and codling tooth are seldom troubled much by canker worms. If they are at all numerous. the trees should be sprayed before bloom- ing with bordeaux to which paris green or arsenate of lead has been added. This spraying is usually made with bor- deaux in tho regular course of orchard work to prevent scab and leaf -spot ; the addition of poison to the spray will help control the canker worm, the case -bear - era, and many other leaf -eating insects. The poison should be used freely, since the canker worm is harder_to kill Man most caterpillars. A one-half pound of purls green to 50 gallons of spray material will be about right. The next spraying, which is applied as soon as the petals have fallen, will catch not. only the codling moth and cumuli. but the canker worm as well. A third spray- ing, made about tett days atter the petals have fallen, will quite effectually finish the worms. 1f the caterpillars are nu- nieroues, these later sprayings should be made more poisonous than the first one, common kitchen.

BADLY BITTEN BY A CAT. A Michigan Man Inas a Painful Uuique Experience. Horace J. Stevens of Houghton, Mich., CL;BIOUS WAYS OF ARRANGING MATRIMONi.AL UNIONS. How They Are Arranged —Meeting e1 the Lovers—Status of the Divorced. The average Mexican does not think of marriage until he has at itis disposal a sura more than moderate, 1f he hap- pens to belong to the higher strata of society, nor until it is cnnsenteef to by Me unanimous vole of every ono of the members of the family. Instances can bo mentioned of two young persons who havo never met each other and in whose minds the idea of matrimony has never yet entered, says the Mexican Herald, becoming man and wife through the whine of their pan nts. It may be that the family of the bride - goon' looks upon hes matrimonial union with a certain girl who may happen to bo the daughter of a magnate, as the means of avoiding tankrupley ; it ',ley be that the father of the bride considers her alliance with the son of a polilkaan AS AN ADROIT MEASURE in preventing the downfall of the head of the horse, or in point of trivial cir- cumstances, ft may be that a marriage is brought about with the object of tie clueing the yearly lax by the father of the bridegroom or that of the bride. The motives given. and those never given, for the pre -arrangement of such alliances vary according to conditions, and are always in relation to tho posi- tion occupied by the two families. 'fho frequent brevity of the proceed- ings in the airaegeinent of bridal tins is, fortunately, giv'ng way to a more liberal and conscientious behavior on the part o' parents toward their sons and daugh- ters. But 11 should also to added that the custom etas by no means disappear- ed, for cases of this nature could to counted by the score in almost every city in the republic. When, without the knowledge or con- sent of their parents, two young persons become engaged, the parish priest is re- quested to call on the bride's father for the purpose of nicking known to him the designs of the bridegroom.
