The locusts are here in force and the
air is completely saturated all day
long with the song of their presence.
Fruit and forest trees are covered with
them, and hogs on the range are grow
ing fat on them. We see somebody in
the Republic speaks of our visitors as
the ..seyenteen-year locusts," but he
mistakes. These are the thirteen
yearers, so to say. Mr.. DelanO, who
has for many years, been weather re-
porter for the Government, looking
over his records few days ago, found
that this family had been here in 1868
and again in 1881, coming the latter
year on the 18th of May, and this year
just two days earlier in the month.
Thirteen years is a long interval be-
tween dates, but Mr.. Locust keeps his
engagements almost to the day.
