CORN WORMS AND OTHER
SIMILAR PESTS.

The agricultural and horticultural
papers are agitsting the subject Of
the Corn Worm, Cut Worm, etc.
Professor J. K. Street, an eminent
snthority on Entomology. bias made
q study of these pests for number
of years.. He sage:

Boil Worm, the Hsliothis; bat they

The Cotton Worm attacks only the
cotton plaintiffs ravages ara con-
fued to it alone. He is a native of
the South and he is confined to the
cotton districts. He hibernatss in
the shape of a Moth, in trash piles
and in other warm places.
"The so-cslled Boil Worn is con-
fined to no particular ssetion be is
found in all parts of North America
He is knowa by different nsmss in
different localities. In the fruit
growing states be is known as the
Fruit Worm; in the horticultural
district as the Tomatoe Worm, the
Bean Worm aud by various other
names, according TO the vegetable
upon which he feeds; in the corr
districts be is called The Corn Worm,
and in the cotton districts the Boil

1t is evident that any means for
the destruction of these pests must be
based on their nature and habits.

RUSSIAN SHARP PRACTICE
American Oil at Disadvantage by the New Treaty-The United States Ex-
 pcctcd to Interfere.

St. Petersburg, June 13-The commer- cial treaty between Russia and Japan. which has just been signed by the con tracting parties. contains a paragraph providing that henceforth the duty upon petroleum imported into Japan shall be levied upon volume. and not upon weight. This arrangement will work to the detriment of the United States, American oil being lighter than the product of Russia though the latter is the cheaper
 The Russians are delighted over the brilliant stroke accomplished by M De- Wittc. minister of finance, in the conclu- sion of the treaty. Moreover it is be- levcd that in return for Russia's guar anteeing of the Chinese Paris loan she has obtained the territory between Nertschinsk, in Asiatic Russia, and Port Arthur which will be connected by rail and the latter place used as a coaling station.
 It is understood that Russia will shortly take possession of the Liao- Tung territory, when it is expected that Germany. England and the United States will unite in asserting their rights.

YES, THAT PLAN OF POOLING By the Big Companies of the
 Birmingham District IS THEFEATURE OF THE WEEK Il Means the Establishment of Selling Agency
 and Allotment of Output. QUESTION IS, WILL IT BE C0NSUMMATED2 The Advance in Southern Iron Is Said to Be Supported by the Well Sold
 Condition of the Lead
 ing Furnaces.
QUESTION IS, WILL IT BE coRsUMNATED2

Cleveland, O., June 13.--The Iron Trade Review says today:
 The week has brought the regular quo ta of advances in prices and wages in the iron and steel industry In the Ma honing valley the men have granted their employees a second increase of 10 per cent, following the pace set in the Shenango valley a few days ago, and eastern steel works have announced higher rates effective in July. In pig iron under continued buying Bessemer has risen to $11.S0 in the valley; SIP is expected by sellers in the next stage of advance, making the Pttsburg price $12.65. The most important development is the renewed effort to make effective the establishment of a selling agency for the pig iron producers in the south and the allotment of output with an agreed basis of prices for the different grades. It is reported that $7.75 for gray forge at Alabama furnaces is the figure talked of The Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railway company and the SlosS Iron an1 Steel company are the chief factors in the arrangement, and it is believed their directors have sanctioned such an ar rangement.
 The steady advance in southern iron, amounting now to $1 has been supported by the well sold condition of the leading furnaces. With the prorSsed advance in southern iron, there would be no diff culty in holding current prices on north ern foundry and forge irons and giving Q margin besides for still higher prices.
 The latest from the Connellsville coke producers Is that the old obstacle to a combination Is still unremoved, and that the talk of 1.50 rate and even higher after July has not yet materalized in contracts. It is known that supply has been taken in one instance for the last four months of the year at T.35. and lower figure has been secured on several other contracts running through the sec ond half of the year.

Age-Herald Bureau,

BeSsemer, June 13.
 Industrial ozone is rampant here, and every citizen is full. Each day the tid- ings of prosperity are being heralded, absorbed and assimilated by the Besse- merites.
 President DeI5ardeleben has returned from the east and while there closed three years contract with one of the best known steel mill superintendents in the east. The superintendent is now hard at work selecting and designing materials for the steel plant and he is expected to arrive here in a few days. Within three weeks, at the latest, ground will be broken near where the steel mill is to be erected for a boiler shop. where the plates necessary in the construction of the steel plant will be put together. It is also stated on good authority that the rolling mill will start up so much of it's machinery as will be required to roll the bars and plates necessary for the construction of the steel plant The ingots will be brought here and rolled into the required shapes by the rolling mill which is one of the largest mills in the south.
 The boiler works will be a permanent institution, and will be used for the manufacture of boilers and other steel plate works which will be turned out by the steel mills.
 Work on the steel plant will also be begun in less than three weeks

Walter L. Coleman, who was mayor of Montgomery during and after the civil war.

 Mir. c. H. Norton, an employe in the Louisville and Nashville freight offices. died at his residence in this city at 9 o'clock last night. Mir. Norton has been m poor health for some months and his death came as no surprise to his friends. The burial will not take place until Sat urday, in order that a son who lives in New York and other relatives who live in distant cities may arrive in time to attend.

Reaching for the Government Printing Office
 and Pension Agencies.
 Washington, June 13.-The civil ser vice commission had an interview at a late hour this afternoon with President Cleveland with reference to extending the operations of the civil service law to the employees of the government printing office.
 It is puTposed. it is understood. to in clude all the employees, who during the busy season aggregate several thousand, excepting only the laborers and char women.
 There is still another and very impor- tant proposed modification of the law, which is to include within it's provisions the several United States pension agen- cies The commissioners have given this proposition much consideration and arc now said to regard 1t with great favor and to be sustained in their views by the president.
