In the April number of the Monthly, I notice a gentleman from Connecticut recommends hellebore as a certain remedy for the destruction of the caterpillar or slug on any plant; and seems to imply also that it is a good way to get rid of the cabbage worm or caterpillar. I have no doubt that his statement is true, but he does not tell us that the hellebore is poisonous. It may do very well to apply such remedies to rose bushes, or other plants not eatable, but I don't believe in applying deadly poisons to cabbage. It seems good enough to put Paris green on potatoes, but then it is the tuber that is eaten, and not the vine. If the vine was the part made use of it would be very different. I wish to say that I have been a long time in possession of a remedy for getting rid of these pests on cabbages without endangering human life; but as I think the matter is now of some importance, I will hold it until I see what I can make out of it before I give it away. I would have no objection to go in with some man of means and enterprise, who would be able to plant extensively, when I have no doubt the thing would be very profitable to both parties.
