LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

complaints of the pedestrians on j and K
streets that the merchants use the entire side
walk for making display of their goods and
wares. In fact on J street there are some
two or three stores that use the entire side
walk with the exception of about three feet
in the center. They place much Of their stock
in trade on tie sidewalk in the morning, and
take it back in the store room in the evening
Some music-dealers leave their empty piano
boxes on the walks for months at tine.
Some grocers almost cover them up with cod.
fish and potatoes. This is all wrong, and is
great inconvenience to the public. The at
tention of those merchants, also that of the
police force, is called to Section of Chapter
8 of the ordinances of this city, which reads
as follows: a" No person or business firm
shall use any portion of the sidewalk in any
part of the city for any purpose whatever,
excepting only for the display of goods, wares
and merchandise, and fer the purpose OF dis.
playing goods. only four feet in width. COM
mencing at the front fae of the lot provided,
however, that merchants and others receiving
and delivering goods shall be allowed six
hours from the time they are deposited until
they are removed; and, provided further,
that space Of six feet 10 width shall at all
times be kept clear fer the accom- notation
of persons passing. Any person violating
this ordinance, upon conviction thereof, shall
be punished by imprisonment in the city jail
not exceeding ten days, or by fine not exceed
ing $500, or by both ine end imprisonment"
WAR AGAINST INSECT PEsrs-In May,
1881, the apple orchard at the Navajo ranch,
Marin county, was infested by species of
tent caterpillar - CEtsiocGmpa coastricta.
Ia order to save par. of the crop. it cost Mr..
De Long ST. 500. The number of caterpillars
destroyed was immense, and the crop saved
brought nearly $50 .000 During the last
two months a gang Of men have been en-
ployed picking ths rings of eggs deposited by
the moths last fall eff the trees. Mr.. De
Long forwarded to Matthew Cooke package
containing one.fourth of the eggs collected to
the 18th inst they weigh thirty-fve ounces
avordupois, and cost to gather S5i. Probably
about three pounds more will be gathered.
MIR. Cooke has the specimens sent him in
six sealed bottles, preserved in alcohol. 1t
takes an average Of 600 rings Of eggs TO weigh
one ounce, each ring contains from 200 to 400
eggs, showing that the work done in this
manner by Mr.. De Long will be equal to the
destruction of about 60, 600, 600 of csterpillars
Mr.. Cooke says there is no doubt of MIR. De
Long being master of the situation, so far as
this pest is concerned. The specimens can be
seen ct the office Of Mr.. Cooke, and are
worthy OF the attention of fruit growers.
