To KEEP OFF Bugs, — Parkhurst says, that " melon- 

 seeds soaked twentyfour hours in a decoction of tobac- 

 co and W'lter, will be effectually protected against the 

 bugs." If it will do this, it will do the same on pump- 

 kins, squashes and cucumbers. But the best nielhod 

 we have ever seen tried, next to the daily application 

 of a squeeze with the thumb and finger, is to place a 

 portable coup containing a hen and chickens, in the 

 midst of a bed of melons or cucumbers. The chickens 

 will do no injury, and will speedily exterminate the 

 whole race of bugs that may infest the premises. — Gen. 

 Farmer.

 ical and expeditious, which can I e devised.
