The insect known as the San Jose
scale, which for long time WAS the
pest of the frult-growers of the Pacific
Coast, threatens to become equally
destructive in the East. 1t appeared
in Virginia last year, being found on
peach trees, and short time ago was
discovered in Charles County, Mary
land, and at De Funiak Springs, Fla.
The supposition is that the scale was
introduced in young trees sent East
by the California nurseries. The
Black Tartarisn cherry is probably
the only aeciduous tree that escapes
the rsvages of this sect. l.. .. How
ard, ac ing entomologist of the De
partment of Agriculture, gives the
Baltimore Sun the following account
of the scale: 1.-The insect itself il II
small, fiat, round scMe. a little lighter
in color than the bark OF The tree, and
will be found most abundantly upon
the younger limbs and twigs. 1t is at
this season of the year one-eighth OF
an inch or less in diameter, and there
is in the middle of each scale a small,
elevated, shiny, blackish, rounded
point Sometimes the centre of the
scale appears yellowish. The wood
underneath the scale is apt to be dis
colored and somewhat purplish. When
the insect is abundant, the bark is
completely hidden by close layer OF
these scales, which are then hardly
distinguishable to the naked eye and
give the appearance of a slight dis
coloration or u slight roughening OF
the bark. No other scale upon apple,
pear, peach, cherry or plum trees
possess these characteristics, and the
insect ought, therefore, to be readily
distinguished. The full-grown insect
is motionless. The young animals are
active crawlers, but even the young
would not crawl more than 100 feet in
their lifetime. They are, however,
carried from orchard to orchard by
insects upon which they have crawled.
and by birds which fly from tree to
tree" The Department has prepared
several washes to bo used at various
stages of the blight caused by the
scale. If tree has become thor
oughly incrusted it is recommended
that the tree be cut down and burned.
Mr.. Howard says that il this enemy is
not energetically treated at the start
it threatens to cripple the entire fruit
growing interests ofthe United States.
The Eastern States have no laws regulat-
! ing the traffic in diseased nursery stock,
and unless laws are speedily enacted
to protect fruit-growers, serious con-
sequences maybe developed.

A remarkable loss of patronage is
reported by the Mercantile Library in
Philadelphia, which is one of the
largest and best in the United States.
1t is a pay library, and in 1871 it had
II, ,7S6 members and subscribers and
circulated 26S, 277 books. Since that
year which saw its 'high water mark, "
its business has gradually ebbed away
to membership Gncluding subscrib
crs) of 3ll5, and circulation of
Sc, j63, those being the figures for
1893. This astonishing condition OF
affairs is hard to explain, admits the
New York Mail and Express, as no
great free library has been started in
Philadelphia to warrant the decrease
in the Mercantile's business.

NO ONE KILLED.


AZ an aftermath OF the recent riots at
Cleveland. Ohio, an outbreak has occurred
at the Standard foundry, where u strike has
been in progress for the last four weeks.
The strikers and sympathi2ng spectators
have assembled daily about the works aud
hnrassed the moulders who had taken their
places. In order TO carry on business as
quietly ~ possible the company adopted the
expedient Of boarding the men at the works
They were likewise supplied with arms by the
company to defend themselves in case OF
trouble.
The sympathizing spectators have con-
stantly jeered at the workmen within the
barricades, and some one fired II shot at the
mouders. A fusillade was returned from
within immediately Several volleys were
fired on both sides, and about so shots in all
were exchanged. A squad OF police was at
once dispatched to the scene and q number
OF arrests was made There will he more
later. Fortunately no one was killed, and
only few men were slightly wounded.
