insects ON tSs Trees.

Nearly all the shade trees in town
are covered with lcagcs, and they are
Also just AS thickly covered with some
sort of an insect. There does not
appear to be a wild bird of any kind
in town. and it is more than likely that
this is diie to the Fact that so many
WIRE killed last Sumner and Fall, and
instead of being protected as they
should have been, TIE bdys and Piutes
seemed 10 think 1t was great sport to
kill them. If this had not been done
many of them wonId have reared their
young here this Spring. and now is The
time when their presence would be
appreciated. ThF i','sais ace great
enemies 10 MI insects. lilrs and worms
that dn so much ,dnmass TO Young
plants and trees. 1t is almost certain
that the large green worms that caused
40 much damage to the trees last year
will be more plentiful than ever this
season, hut f,he birds had been al.
lowed to live here IN peace, they would
have DESTROYED the worms before the
time for deposi,ing their eggs had
arrived. At any rate, it Ia certain that
the insects that are now on the trees
in such great numbers would not last
long even if there were only few
birt left, and it is a shame that more
precautions were not taken lsst year to
prevent the birds from being killed.
The birds that may come here this
Summer should be protected. If this is
done they will rapidly increase and
in turn keep the trees from being dam.
aged by the insects. Unless some
insect destroyer is allowed to remain
here it will be almost impossible to
keep trees and plants from dying.

<4Wild H0rat.e.

AS warm weather is approaching
many ambitious vaquero parties will
be formed totry and catch some of tho
wild horses that roam at large on
various ranges in different parts Of
Nevada. These horses are not owned
by any body IN particular, and who
ever succeeds Threatening any'of them
has the privilege of claiming owner
ship, consequently they are looked
after by many, but ills not often that
3ohe is caught. AS long as can befre.
membered by the oldest settler, bands
of wild and unclaimed horses have
been on the ranges IN different sections
OF this State. They are the cause Of
considerable annoyance to those who
have horses pastufing in the hills, as
they will not feed with the tame ones,
but will, instead, run them off of the
ranges; sometimes at 80 great a dis.
lance that the owners are unable to
ever find them, they will also "steal"
tame horses from different bands and
keep them awav for long time, or
until the domest1cated animal has
a fascination for a wild fife and Joins
the band of thieves, as they are com
monty called. Repeated losses Of this
kind causes the horse raisers to offer
rewards FOR the capture of Nthese wild
horses, and they are not particular
whether they IRE c6rrafled Dr. killed.
They are large and strong, and afe 10
