For siomec reason farnmers generally dislike toads. They have Ito good looks to commend them, and Shakespeare gave t the toad a bad ame by describing it as ''ugly and venomous,'' yet "with a priecious jewel in its head." I 'gly it is beyond question; venomous it never was; the jewel of the toad is not in Its helad but in its stomach, and it is one of the very best frieids that the t farimer has on his farm. The experi ment statiols, which ate in vestigating i every direction to discver the friends and Foes of tie farmer, are aiolltg other thlngs investigating toads aIni bats, and furni ishLi the st.rongest kind of testimony as to the value of these despised friends of the far mer'. The toad his al appetite to which the appetite of a hog is as that of a siCk mi to a hungry thrasher or harvest hand. It eats incessantly. and eighty per cent. of its foodi con sists of halrmtnil insects. It is estimuat ed ttat in three iiuontlis a single load will consume 10,000 insects, such as army worms, gypsy lnoth, cutwormuIs - aits, weevils, wirewouinis; everything, i in fact, in sight. ()ne of the professors inl the Massachusetts Station establish e'ed some toad colonies Iear1. his hIone 11and found theii the best nly eatchers ever yet discovered. The!cforc, toads ' should never be killed. A family of them colonized in the garden with a b basin of water in which the tfemnale can I lay her eggs will soon rid tle whole o neighorlhood of the worst insect enemnies of the garden, to say nothintg of the comfort of gettlinL rid of tile tlies about the house. .iu iakinlg his it vestigations in the orchards, the professor discovered one orchard entirely free fromi edlig I moths, due to a colony of hats that were located in the barn. The codlitng moth is a night tlyer and only night lying enemies can destroy them. Ile coloinzed a fen bats in his parlor ( we do not ask our ladies to submit to that) y and introduced into the pallor iet fil after netful of night flying itisects :nd h1 found that not a siingle one wvoub be 0 left in the muorning.
