BRITISH GUIANA.
Nothing Is Known As TO the Recent
Statements.

Statements.
LONDON, Nov 25.-Nothing is
known at the colonial Office here of the
alleged statements of the administra-
tor of British Guiana that the imperial
government is prepared to assert the
rights of arms News reached here
some days ago that the legislature of
that colony had acquiesced to the pro-
posal of the secretary of state for the
colonies, Mr.. Chamberlain, to increase
the colonial force by two inspectors
and another Maxim gun, the legisla-
ture also notifying the government
that it is prepared to vote for anything
the colonial secretary considered neces-
sary for the defense of the colony. No
further proposal, however, has been
made by the imperial government.
There has been no change in the boun-
dairy dispute and the government, 1t IS
added, will not tolerate Venezuelan ag-
gression beyond the Schomberg line.
Otherwise it is stated that the warlike
statements printed in certain newspa-
pers are not founded on facts.

concentrations for an Amend
ment.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Secretary
Hoke Smith, in his annual report, will
recommend that the Carey law grant
ing 100000 acres of arid land to each
state in which such lands are situated,
be amended so that the grant be made
to the state outright and it be made
responsible for the irrigation of the
lands. Under the law as it now stands
it would be many years before the
state would receive the benefit of the
grant and Secretary Smith believes
the state can carry out better the in
tention of Congress if it gets control
of the entire grant at once instead of
waiting until water is secured for the

CATTLE INSPECTION.
j. Sterling Norton Is at Work in
Chicago.

CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-J. Sterling Nor
ton, secretary of agriculture, is in this
city, stopping at the home of his son,
Is Groveland park. His mission is
strictly one of business concerned
with his Office. He expects to devote
several days to careful examination
Of the sytem of cattle inspection at the
stock yards with a view to ascertain
ing whether thc work is done in a way
to protect the cattle interests of the
United States abroad.
He affirms positively his recent visit
to East st. Louis had no connection
with an effort on the part of private
concerns to break up the 'big four
beef and pork combine. While he de
clares he knows nothing about the al
legged project of certain millionaires to
establish several packing houses to
those already existing in East st.
Louis, he admits steps have been taken
to increase the force of inspectors at
that point. That, however, he says
is due to the insufficiency of the force
now at work there.

know that under the Mckinley law
they were getting more pay than they

The Chinch-Bug Infection.

EDITOR CoURIER:-For the benefit
OF other farmers, desire to give
you an account OF my success 10
introducing the white-iungus disease
among chinch-bugs.
On June 14th received q box con-
tanning some four or Eve bugs from
Prof. Snow, of Lawrence. Kas. The
next day gathered some from my
Geld and put them In q box with
about an inch OF garden soil. Ny
box is about II by 1s inches and
enough bugs should be put IN to
cover the bottom. Thrre days after
wards, June 18th, ] had . sufficient
number Of white-fungui bugs to
scatter thinly In my corn field. !
had, perhaps, not more than three
or four dosen bugs, but took some
Of the top soil from the box, which
Prof. Snow said would likely be filed
with the spores OF the disease. On
June 21n, or just three days after
putting out the fret bugs, | again
went tn the field TO scatter more OF
the dead fungue-covered bugs. and
WAS much surprised to sce that the
bugs had ALREADY taken the disease
in great numbers. Even eight or
ten rods from where any diseased
bugs had been put, dead bugs with
the characteristic white, cottony ap-
pearaDce could be found at nearly
every hill. When first dead they
look like little balls of cotton.
This morning. June Gath, the
ground to the depth OF half inch or
more contains many, very many, OF
these white, dead bugs. When the
disease attacks them they seek
shade and shelter. hence the reason
for finding them beneath the surface
