Our Book Table.

A sensational story of London social life, called the Silent Shore, or mystery of St. James’ Park, has come to hand from the press of Wm. Bryce, of Toronto, and though it has been reviewed as ‘* interest- ing from beginning to end,” we do not share in the opinion; yet even that may be true to those who prefer sensational read- ing. A second story from the same press is by Frances Burnett, entitled, The For- tune of Phillippa Fairfax. This is another love story from the inexhaustable brain of a love story teller, and written evidently to display an intimaie knowledge of the subject, but like such efforts generally, it is too explanatory to make you forget you are reading, when you want to be interest- ed, and too circumstantial to give the proper zest to perusal, but just as there are all sorts of readers, to them are all sorts of writers.

The eighteenth annual report of the Entomological Society of Ontario, and print- ed by order of the Legislative Assembly, as also the report for the year 1887 of the Fruit Growers’ Association of Ontario, have reached our book table “and afforded much satisfaction in examining their con- tents. The most useful kind of informa- tion and instruction is found in three volumes, not only to fruit raisers and in-

ers, but every reading man in the Do- minion.

The promised No. 1, Vol. 1, of the Do- minion illustrated (to be issued weekly) has put in an appearance in Royal 4th size and quite comes up to expectation. With such excellent full page examples of gravune prints as is Lord Lansdowne, Dreamland and Sir John, the publishers have indicated their future intentions, and we wish them all the profit and glory of a great success.

The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine is full of well told and splendidly illustrated events and topics. Pasteur and his grand- daughter leads the July number, ano can- not fail to awaken a wide gratification. Sinai and the wilderness will stir many a religious sentiment, and give form and im- provement to what many of us have imper- fectly thought of Moses and his wanderings. The Steppes of The Irtish is more from George Kennan and instructively interest- ing, both as to matter and illustrations, well done from photographs on the spot, taken by George A. Frost. Joseph Pennell has illustrated Lichfield Cathedral. It is the decorated Gothic style. The group of three spires to this wonderful ecclesiastical building is unrivalled. The name of Lich- field goes back to the time of Dioclesian, the old English word lic, meaning dead body—for here were massacred 1,000 Roman and English Christians. The Lincoln and McClellan article, illustrated from photo- graphs, is a solid and valuable addition to the literature of the civil war for maintain- ing the union. The career of the Confed- erate Ram ‘* Albemarle,” is a terrible chap- ter in Confederate history, but is a valuable shewing of Southern pluck and power in overcoming difficulties and realizing a pur- pose. The article on Dreams, Nightmare and Somnambulism is a splendid condensa- tion of what is thought and believed on these subjects—and very ably concreted, but it is entirely silent on what may be called the physiology of brain waste and repair. The process of removing effete brain matter and substituting new and experienced brain atoms (such as phosphorus and the like) causes more or less temporary disturbance during the time of restoring sleep, and as this process (more or less normally performed) disturbs the permanent images of memory, there is always a likeli- hood of ‘‘ mixing things,” resulting in vagaries which are known as dreams. The fill-up articles and poetry are all satisfactor- ily readable, as is always anticipated in the issues of the Century Co., of Union Square, New York City.

Harper's Magazine for July is on hand, and presents its usual supply of well- written articles on interesting subjects. The midsummer trip to the West Indies is atimely bit of information for those who want an intelligent tourist’s views and sketches and notes on the West Indies.

The noyelette called ‘*Maiwa’s Revenge” is the first half of awild sporting life, which many will like to read, though few to experience. .

‘*The Great American Desert” is full of illustration and fact, and the other portions of Harper’s new monthly magazine for July, published by Harper & Brothers, New York, form the usual medley of something and occasionally nothing.

The contents of the July number of the American Magazine, remarkably well illus- trated, and judiciously selected, gives a good idea of the general value of pages of this representation of American thought and life.

‘* Apollo and Norie”’ illustrate a com- mon feature of ante-bellum slavery, that of life-long attachment, that overcame even the gift of freedom for faithful service.

A second paper by Wm. Curtis, on ‘* Ecuader and Her Cities, is illustrated by Fenn, Edwards and Eaton, all experts in their specialty.

‘* Spiritualism and Like Delusions” is a tissue of assertions without proofs, but anything adverse to this ‘‘delusion” is always read with fervor, and so is welcome to many, thoughts second-hand.

‘‘ Housekeeping by the U.S. Govern- ment” is a wonderful exhibit of feeding 5,000 (five thousand) veterans three times a day at Uncle Sam’s expense—and it is done, and well done, and economically done, without any help from female hands.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

_—_--»>>_-———_

Hints to Farmers.

Sir,—With the present summer temper. ature, our domestic animals, horses, cattle and sheep, will soon be exposed—each kind of them— to the attacks of its own special termentor ; our horses to the Bot fly, our cattle to the Warble fly, and our sheep to another variety of the Ostrida or Gad fly.

Farmers are familiar with the habits of these flies, and with the injurious effects which tollow their attacks ; therefore I need not occupy your space in describing their mode of operation; but simply referring to the discomfort suffered by horses, (reacting on those who drive them) to the pain and disquietude endured by cattle, and the enormous loss to their owners in milk, in condition and in the value of hides, caused by the ravages of these insects, I ask is it not worth while, if possible, to provide an effectual remedy for so great an evil ? This question has occupied the attention of the Committee of the R. A. Society of England; and their Entomologist—a {lady, Miss E. A. Ormerod—has lectured to the students at the Cirencester College, on the astride or bot flies, and quite recently pub- lished a pamphlet on the same subject, the circulation of which has reached the 48th thousand. 1 recently applied to Professor Saunders, of the Experimental Farm, Ottawa, for in- formation, (if any there might be) available for use against these tormentors, this sum- mer ; to-day I received the two pamphlets by Miss Ormerod, bearing the name of J. Fletcher, a gentleman attached to the staff of the Experimental Farm as Etomologist. It appears that these flies are very sensi- tive of strange odors, and will avoid ani- mals whose’ skins have been washed or smeared with some preparation repulsive tothem. For this purpose it has been re- commended to use train oil, rubbed along the spine of cattle, and a little on the loins and ribs, or the fullowing mixture: 4 oz. flowers of sulphur, one gill spirits of tar, 1 quart train oil, well mixed together and apply once a week, along each side of the spine of cattle. With both ef the above applications it has been found that cattle so dressed were allowed to graze in peace. Both are cheap, and easily applied to cows giving milk, and without much trouble to store cattle running at large. Here is another formula which seems applicable to horses used for riding or driving, but the quantities are not given: spirit of tar, linseed oil, sulphur and car- bolic acid. At the present time our object shoul be to prevent the winged tormentor from approaching our domestic animals; but supposing that from inattention, or any other cause, the warble bot should establish itself ia the backs of our cattle, there are certain easy and safe means of destroying them, without injury, but with great benefit, to the animals, and diminution of the enemy’s forces, on the wing in the en- suing summer. I have striven to curtail this letter as much as possible, and will conclude it by quoting a passage from Miss Ormerod’s leaflet: ‘‘The attack of warbles is now growing to be the cause of enormous national loss, estimated at from two to seven millions of pounds stg. per annum. There is no sort of reason why we should suffer it to go on: and the reports s@nt in from cattle ownersin Great Britain and Ireland, during the last three years, show the ease with which the attack may be checked, and the great consequent gain to owners.” { remain, Mr, Editor,

yours obediently, R. P. HayrHorne.

The New Cable.

Further particulars are published in the Canadian press of the approaching sur- vey of the Pacific in view of the proposed cable line from British Columbia to Austra- lia. Admiral Fairfax, the commander of the Australian squadron, has, it appears, received the necessary orders, directing the use of the Egeria for the work. The route will commence from some point on the east coast of Australia, and proceed via the ex- treme northern coast of New Zealand, thence to British Columbia, passing Fiji, and con- necting with the Canadian Pacific railway. It is interesting to note that this survey was strongly recommended at the recent Conference of the Australian colonies at Sydney. The question was brought before the Conference by a motion declaring it to be desirable that a survey should be made of a ‘suitable route for an ocean tele- graph cable by way of the Pacific, via Van- couver Island, the cost of the survey to be defrayed by Great Britain, Canada, and the Australian colonies represented at the Conference;” while to this was added a rider that the countries named should not be bound to accept the proposals of the Pacific Cable company. New South Wales alone among the colonies dissented, and there is therefore ground for hoping that should the survey now really set on foct prove the practicability of the route, the much needed telegraphic connection of Europe with the Australasian colonies via Canada will not be much longer delayed.
