The Horn Fly.

Kansas farmers are complaining of %
new pest known as the horn fy-so
called from its habit of resting on the
horns of cattle-from whence it moves
to various parts of the body, piercing the
skin with its serrate proboscis and suck
ing the animals blood. Its habits are
not tonly annoying, but exceedingly harm
full. The pest was unknown here year
ago, but is now one of the most abun-
dant and hurtful of the fly species. Pro
fessor Kellogg of the state university
says it is native of Europe, and was
probably introduced into America with
shipment of cattle from France. 1t
was first observed in New Jersey in Sep
tember, 1887 In October, 1888, it was
in Maryland. In 1889 it had Travelled
south and west over Delaware, Mary
land and Virginia, and in 1890 it was
wonderfully active, appearing in Ken
lucky. By the end of 1891 it got as far
as New York and west to Ohio, south to
Florida and Mississippi. In 1892 it was
noticed in Illinois and is now found in
Kansas and other western states. An
effort will be made to prevent farther
spread of the pest by the same process
now used in exterrninating chinch bugs.

Econornizlng on Preachers.

In Clark county. where hard times pre-
vail and crops failed this year, the relig-
ious people of all denominations are get
ting together and discharging all but one
minister in the interest of economy. AT
Ashland, the county seat, seven denomi-
nations combined and took vote on the
most popular of the seven ministers who
should preach the gospel to the people,
eschewing all doctrinal topics. The Rev
Milleck of the Methodist church was Sc
lected and the other six discharged.
The unsuccessful were not soured, and
accepted their fate, knowing that there

[To BE CONTINUED.
A Singular state of Affairs.

Doubtless it is in the interest of the
welfare of all our people that banks, the
doors of which are open for business and
which are ready to receive deposits,
have fatty Il ..gcd to honor the checks
of their depositors notwithstanding they
have the money with which to pay them,
but it is most singular state of affairs,
and the docility with which the depos-
itors have accepted the situation is sur
prising.
The contract between the bank and
the depositor provides that the bank will
take charge Of the depositor's funds and
pay them out on the depositor's check.
The assumption that the bank may at
any time, in the exercise of its own dis
cretion, forcibly withhold the deposit
or's property from him is not contem-
plated by the terms of the contract usu-
ally made between the parties. The de-
positor has not authorized the bank to
do more OF anything else than care for
his money and pay it out on his check.
Under ordinary circumstances the re-
fusal of bank to honor the check Of its
depositor when it admits that the money
is in its possession and belongs to the de-
positor, would be accepted as an evil
dence that the bank is itself bankrupt.
This method of preventing run on the
bank is certainly quite effective.
The good spirit in which the depositor
accepts the Inconvenience to which he is
thus subjected is strong evidence Of
that public spirit which may save the
community from irreparable disaster
At the same time it is worthy of remark
that no pugnacious crank has as yet
asked the intervention Of the courts to
compel the bank to give him his money

The Des,4os ...g cr.oke.s An idaho.

The onward march Of the crickets in
Idaho is described by the correspondents
as something moro terrible to the farm
ers than an army with banners. The lit
tie pests made their appearance in north
ern Idaho in May and have been moving
toward the south and east ever since,
eating every blade Of grain and grass ON
the way and even destroying the foliage
and fruit. The farmers have been crush
ing them with rollers, burning them with
sage brush fires and roasting them as they
swim across the rivers and bitches with
burning oil, but they still move on by
millions, undaunted by the slaughter
and undismayed by anything except a
lack of verdure. Just how far they are
going is matter of much moment to
the farmers of the mountain REGION

The Silver Question.

Has been "the bond of contention"
for along time, but few there are
who understand it, or who know
anything about how or where the
silver itself obtained, or how it is
handled before it is made into
money! TO these, indeed to every
one, the excellent article on "Silver,
from Mine to Mint" handsomely
illustrated, which ir published in
Demorests Family magazine for
October, will de especially interest
ing as well as instructive. Another
article, "The Silver Secret" gives
in familiar and easily c0mprehen-
ded style all the important points
about the vexed Silver Question,
and the story "In the Silver
Thread" tells one Of those roman
tic incidents in the experience of
an owner of silver mine that
seem TO wonderful to be true, yet
napen more frequently than they
are recorded. The story of "The
Captains Daughter at the Interna-
tlOnal Cup Race" Is enDelilSheu
with illustrations of the cup-de-
tenders for the "America" cup, in
previous races as we'll as that of
1888, and one of the Vallkyrie, ac-
companied by a portrait IF Lord
Dunraven. All interested in yacht
ing should have these fine pictures
of yachts. The Dairy of an Ath-
lie ic Girl" increases in interest;
there are several excellent stories;
all those interested in Horticulture
in winter should read "Winter
