«* I^illipiit I^und, Of I*eep-Slioi;v 
for tbe Youug," is a new juvenile, by the editor of 
" Lilliput Levee." It is fuli of good things, fine engrav- 
ings, music, etc. Almost 400 large pages; a most capi- 
tal holiday book, for the remarkably low price of $1.25. 
Published by Baker, Pratt & Co., New York. 
Citadelle is the name of a pleasmg and 
very neat game, something on the principle of Bagatelle. 
Parents on the look out for holiday gifts can add tliis 
to the home attractions at a moderate expense. It is 
made by Warner & Co., Morthampiou, Mass. 
Remedy for Scab.— "H. A.," Smith Co., 
Kansas. — Tlie remedy for scab mentioned — viz.: 7 lbs. 
each of lime and sulphur boiled together in 60 gallons of 
water, is one frequently used by shepherds. It is safe, 
but not so effective as the tobacco dip mentioned in 
Stewart's " Shepherd's Manual." The lime and sulphur, 
upon being boiled together, form a new compound (Sul- 
phide of Calcium), which destroys the scab insects when 
it touches them. To enable it to reach insects in their 
burrows in the skin, the scabs should be broken up thor- 
oughly. 
Tlie Ohio State Ilortieiiltural So- 
ciety^ will hold Its annual meeting this year at Raven-

The meetings of this society are usually full of interest, 
and all our Ohio horticultural friends should endeavor to 
be present, but a special welcome will be given to those 
from other States. M. B. Bateham, Painesville, is Sec'y.
