Using Ants In Horticulture.

DR.. O. T. Mcgowan has sent Pro-
fessor C. V. Riley, of the agricultural
bureau, Washington, from Han Chow.
ali oocount of a curious use made of
ants in that part ci China. 1t seems
that in many parss OF the province Of
Canton the orange trees are injured by
certain worms, and to rid themselves of
these pests the inhabitants import ants
from the neighboring hills. The him
people throughout the summer and
winter find the nests of two species of
ants, red aud yellow, suspended from
the branches Of various trees. The
"orange ant breeders" are provided
with pig .or goat bladders baited
inside with lard. The orifices Of these
they apply to the entrance of the bag
like nests. when the ants enter the
bladders. and, as DR.. Mcgowan ex-
presses 1t, "bscome q marketable COM
modify ct the orangeries." The trees
are colonized by placing the ants on
their upper branches aud bamboo rods
are stretched between the different
trees SO as to give the ants easy access
to the whole orchard. This remedy
has been in constant use at least since
1910. and probably dates from much
earlier period. It is certainly . new
way of utilizing ants, which as m .
are deservedly considered : nv;sanss

WHO ne Is.

The man Landreau, on whose account
chiefly Mr.. Secretary Blaine was willing
to muddIe our relations with several
foreign power, turns out to oe anything
but a respectable fellow. He kept a gin
mill in Ecuador some iyears ago and was
jailed for not paying the license OF his
traffic. He turned up afterwards in
Lima, Pers, as a trader in firearms dur
ing q revolution. He did a brisk bust
ness OF this sort until unfortunate peace
was restored. How he came to be so
plethoric Of guAno the San Francisco Ex-
aminer explains as follows:
Then came out . decree granting 80 per
cent Of any guano business to the discov-
erers Of guano deposits, and Landreau,
who is said no. TO have known guano from
gum-arabic, hired . schooner and went OF
for q two or three months voyage. Whether
he ever really found any guano or not has
never been certainly determined. What
he did do soon became apparent enough.
He took . chart and learned the location
Of Q number Of islands, and covered about
two-thirds Of them with guano claims. He
returned to Lima and declared he had
found guano in about so places, covering
about all the localities where it was posi-
BILE for guano to be found Thirty or 40
other persons made similar claims, and
the Peruvian Government finally got tired
OF listening to absurd and contradictory
representations. Just this, and nothing
more, Is the basis OF the enormous fabric
built Up by this man Landreau. He
claims no less than $3.50. 0J0, 900.

NEW ORLEANS.

Orders were received at New Orleans
on the 9TH inst. from San Francisco to
provide freight room, during March and
April, for $50, 900 bushels Of wheat for
Great Britain. The wheat will be shipped
from California TO New Orleans by the
Southern Pacific R. r. and thence by
steamer to Liverpool. It now looks as
though New Orleans would become the
shipping port, not only for the grain
produce Of the Upper Mississippi. but
also for that Of the entire Pacific Coast.
Heretofore the grain of the Pacific States
has been shipped to Europe around the
Horn, a long and expensive trip. The
cost Of transportation has been greatly
lessened by the railroad route to New
Orleans and the time consumed IN de-
livery materially shortened. New Or

The fall was three and q half feet. The

struggles of all were fearful, the woman's
being Of the most painful character. The

dragged Carter by q rope around his neck,
and stabbed him with a knife, when the
woman jumped on his body and stamped

jury, or the ground that he would abuse
the privilege and say things that should
not go before the jury, but his counsel
could read such parts Of bis speech as were

Guiteau rallied q. the Judge, saying that
his name would go down to future ages
with q black stain.
Reed began the opening argument for
the defense. He maintained that the
prisoners conduct in Court proved him
to be insane, and he Reed believed that
if Guiteau should be sent to an asylum he
would be an idiot within six months. At
this Guiteau broke into a laugh. He con-
stantly interrupted Reed with contradic-
tons and comments.

that armed to embellish and preserve them
