AUSTRALIA'S PLAGUE.

For a number of years Australia
has been suffering from an annoying
pest inflicted by the rabbits of that
country, and for the past few years
the island, or continent, ash is some
times called, has been literally over
run with them, so that nothing can
be, grown scarcely. The govern
ment took the matter in hand, and
various means were, devised and sug-
gested for their determination, all of
which have so far proved Intellectual.
Not long ago areward was officially
offered and published in this coun
try, announcing that a sum of sever
al. thousands ofdollars would be paid
to the American scientist who could
devise or invent means of getting
rid of the pest. Immediately many
remedies were thought of and finally
the conclusion was reached that by
inocculating a number of rabbits,
according to the Pasteur method,
with chicken cholera and turning
them loose in the island, they would
by degrees communicate the disease
and spread it until the tribe was ex-
terminated. An experiment was
made on a rabbit and proved sue
cessful, it gradually dropping like
fowls inflicted with the cholera and
dying in few days. But just as
the remedy is about to be put into
execution another scientist comes
along and alarms the Austral-
ians by showing them that if they
succeed in killing off the rabbits
they will only be escaping from the
pot into the fire. He contends with
reason that the vultures and other
carnivorous birds that feed from the
carcasses of the dead rabbits would
become inocculated with the cholera
germs and would communicate them
to the whole feathered tribe; that
the notwithstanding birds would be
destroyed, and that in time the land
would be infested with all kinds of
vermin, to such degree that they
would infest private dwellings and
drive the inhabitants out. So. that,
it would seem, better remedy yet
will have to be devised.

TIE TEXAS PLNERLES.

In time to come, and the day is
not SO fardistant, either, as that the
prediction may not be made without
carrying along with it the conviction
of an absolute certainty entirely free
from the appearance of a venture,
that pine Will be pine in this coun-
try-whieh means that this character
of lumber. which is so extensively
used as building material, Will have
value attached to it far in excess OF
what there is at present. When the
vast pine regions Of Michigan were
first opened up to the commercial
world they We're thought to be al
most practically inexhaustible- and
for a long time have supplied vast
quantities of this material. Within
the past few years, however, the sup
ply has been fast falling, and already
the lumber princes who have made
fortunes out of the Michigan pine
regions, are looking around, in an
ticipation of what will soon be the
inevitable result, for a new supply
in the virgin forests. Last fall a
number of lumber operators and
capitalists paid a visit to the pine
lands Of Mississippi and Alabama
and bought up thousands of acres.
Strange to say that they We're not
attracted towards this state. Texas,
which has often been called an en-
Fire within itself, not only has the
most extensive grazing lands in the
union, as large coal and mineral de-
posts, as large . wheat area as the
state of Illinois, the great wheat-pro-
ducing state Of the union, helargest /
cotton area Of any atate-but in all
of the varied resources, including
pine forests, it eZcels every other
state. Comparatively speaking, the
pineries OF Texas are yet in virgin
state, and few people realize their ex-
tent. But, as stated, in time to
come the lumber trade will be one
Of the industries that will add to the
;ast growing wealth and Importance
Of the Lone Star state, and while the
immigration societyis offering homes
% poor people and inviting them
within its borders, it might be well
o also offer the capitalist a home
nd acquaint linn with some. of the
inducements the pine for
sts offer for the profitable invest
nent of his money. (

The Houston Post takes the same
view of Mr.. Mills conduct in the
House on Friday that tie BANNER
