most universal belief among farmers,
that buckwheat is fatal to the pests.
Experiments have proved that the
worms will eat the root of buckwheat
and thrive upon it as long and well
as on a clover 'or timothy diet. To
starve the worms by clean fallowing
is 'shown to be impossible, as they
can live for an indefinite time upon
the decaying matter in any soil. For-
tunately, farmers are not utterly
helpless in this matter. After throe
years the ail grown worms change
to beetles, and in August betake therm
to their cells to hibernate until
spring, then to emerge as click beet-
les, or snapping bugs. If the ground
is plowed at any tiine in the fall the
llttle earthen cells may be broken
and their occupants destroyed. The
more thoroughly the soil is pulveriz-
ed tale more complete will be the de-
struction. Farmers who have faith
in fall plowing as a good thing on
• general principles, may find in this
an added incentive to continue the
practice.

AN ANTI -SEA -SICK VESSEL,
Lieutenant Mire, of the French
navy, has after ranch study devised
a plan for a ship the passengers on
which will, as he imagines, be proof
against sea -sickness. Ile has caught
the idea from the motion of a swieg.
As a general role, vessels are only
set rolling froin ten to fifteen seconds
at a time, AMY as his would have a
regular SIVVIDg of twenty-two seconds,
he caleulates that the effect of the
waves woula thus be counteracted.
M. Turc's model ship would be of
about 6,000 tons burden, and would
sail at a speed of nineteen knots. All
the cabins would be well out of the
water, as they would be constructed
on a deck more then 30 feet above
the sea -level.
