CABBAGE WORMS.
A Canadian correspondent of “ Vick’s Magazine ” says that wheat bran sprinkled on the heads of cabbage where the worms are at work, in the morning when the dew is on, or after a shower of rein, will clean out the marauders. He explains its efficiency as follows : —“ The worms eat the bran so voraciously that they burst. One dose is generally cuificiont for ft complete riddance of the little pest. I learned this from an old and experienced gardener. It has proved a success in every case where it has been tried, and I want ao better remedy,”
