4 New Foe to y Peat Of the Orchard,
Mr.. Albert Koebele. who is in Aus
ralia collecting beneficial insects, has
sent to the state board Of horticulture OF
California a new ladybird that preys on
the cottony cushion scale. 1t was through
the fundamentally Of Mr.. Koebele that
the Vedalia CARDINALS was introduced
into California and accomplished work
which was without precedent in the an
nails OF economic entomology.
This new ladybird is called Noyius
Knbelei. and is slightly smaller than
vedalla, the mature beetle averaging
about one-eighth Of an inch in length.
Only three specimens were received,
and these were placed in a small Jar in
Tested with the scale. One Of the in
sects died, but two Of them changed to
the chrysalis state and in few DAYS
perfect beetles emerged, which were
fortunately male and female. Three
days later the female deposited eggs
which Matched in five days. The young
Larvae were carefully reared, and, after
passing through three molts, changed
INTO the pupa state, and fifty-five per-
feet beetles were secured in Just thirty
one days from the eggs.
When liberated on trees they will no
doubt pass through their transforma-
uon In much less time. SO that there will
be thousands Of beetles for distribution
very soon. 1t is to be hoped that they
Will be as efficient as the ladybirds Of

The Market Opened TOlerably Firm
Late In the Afternoon Sugar was
Taken In Hand and Advanced.
NEW YORK, April 24-The stock market opened
tolerably hrm in sympathy with a slight advance
In prices at London, and on the execution Of
moderate buying orders from that center, but
the extension of the labor troubles, which are
being magnifed BY the bear as much q possible
for speculative effect, led to . rapid change In
the tone Of the market. A general decline in
prices occurred under fairly sharp pressure to
sell for both the long and short accounts.
The downward movement was accelerated by
a sudden drop Of three points In Distiners, to %
on the announcement that the decision In the
Gottschalk case on the question Of rebates had
been decided against the company and also by
reports from Chicago that Attorney General
Moloney would render his decision in the quo
warranto matter and that 1t would be adverse to
the trust. Chicago Gas stock declined from e71s
to 65s4.
After the close of the exchange It was learned
that Attorney General Moloney's decision was
not only against the trust but that it was also Of
very sweeping character, and there was much
conjecture as the effect upon the stock to-mor-
row. Some operators inclined to the belief that
the stock would break badly, while other ex-
pressed the opinion that the insiders would make
an effort to force the shorts to cover, and in this
