arc and, skipper-li5e, spring out. Some Of
them remain in the heads and develop the
following year, after having wintered in
the barn. Those which leave the heads, as
is the case with most OF them, seek shelter
near the roots Of the wheat stalk and lie
dormant until the next spring, when they
assume the pupa, then the image, and lastly
develop into perfect nidGe about the mid
die of June.
When the midge increases greatly in any
locality the parasites which feed upon
them, of which there are several kiads, in
crease also and soon diminish the progeny,
so that little harm viii be done by the
nidge during the next few years in that
section, but some section where they have
not been before, or at least not for some
time, becomes I. -ested with them Here
they continue their work of destruction
until their enemies destroy so many that
they are unable to do much harm % wheat.
Thus they alternately make destructive at
tscks upon different regions at different
times. One OF the parasites which de-
stroys the m.dge Is about the same size, en-
tirely black, has four colored legs, and is
seen throughout the day. They thrust
their long, lance-shaped oviposi.or through
the glumes OF the wheat and deposit their
eggs within those Of the midge The larve
OF the p asite feeds upon those OF the
midge and causes its destruction. but IL
does not save the wheat crop Of the en-
SUNG year. A small spider sp.ns bis web
for the nudge at the fsgt Of tho wheat
stalk, and thus helps % eXterminate them
There are different ways of destroying
them, but the parasites before referred %
are the most elective. 1t is said that BY
deep p0wiDg most OF the larvae are de-
strcycd. Exposure 10 the hot sun by har-
rowing the ground repeatedly also kills
many Burning Of the stubble fed and
covering the ground with n neral fertilizers

Too Eopefi1L.

One or two democratic congressman have
recently expressed the opinion that the con-
tested el ction cases from the south will BE-
considere by the republicans upon their
merits, and that, therefore, the republican
majority will not be increased They do
not believe that the republicans are natu-
rally inclined 70 act fairly in such cases, but
they think that they are afraid that an ex-
t7eme policy would result disastrously TO
them in future elections. In other words,
the republican House win do what is right
III the matter, not for the sake Of principle,
but for the sake Of party.
This is very hopeful view 70 take, and
there will be cause for congratulation if it
is not found to be entirely too hopeful The
Republican party has not made a creditable
record in contested election cases. Its par
tisanship has impelled it 70 lose aght of the
merits Of cascs in number of instances,
and there Is no reasonable doubt that at
this juncture, WITH a House majority 30
slim that it cannot always be depended
upon, democrats viii be deprived of their
sea-s for no other reason than TO make
room for republicans, provided the demo-
Gratis are unable TO prevent il by parlia-
mentary tactics The party lash will do its
work in these cases.
II dem Jcrats from the south are uuseated,
the republicans will try to justify them
selves by charging that elections in the
south were not fair ones. In some cases
they will charge intimidation of colored
voters; IN Others, the suppression Of colored
votes, and in still others they viii charge
both. They viii assume that the fact that
IN some southern congressional districts the
colored people of voting age outnum-
Der the whites Of voting age is ample
evidence that republicans were
elected. They probably know better,
but it does not suit their purpose to admit
that they do. They will count upon deceiv-
log tie voters of tie north and west to an
extent sufficient to save them from rebuke
at the polls. Southern democratic con-
gressmen who have contests upon their
hands need not expect fair treatment from
the republicans Their only hope of re
tanning their seats lies in the possible failure
If the republicans to change the rule so as
TO give the majority more power.
