I have made very careful and thorough test of the same, and am very greatly pleased with the results. In mechanical construction the engines leave nothing to be de- sired, and with the governing mechan- ism, 1 am more than well pleased. The engines are connected by friction clutches with two power pumps, which are used for fire purposes, and the ease and rapidity with which they can be started, assume full load or drop to no load, and, in general, the whole op- eration of the engines is highly satis- factory I believe for small water works the economy of operation and the immediate readiness for service renders the gasoline engine the best possible motor

How to Destroy Grasshop.
perS.

Grasshoppers undoubtedly cause
greater annual loss to Colorado
farmers and fruit growers than
any other single insect pest. Some
of this loss is unavoidable, but
much of it can be prevented at
small expense by adopting proper
measures in time.
Although a disease DESTROYED n
largo number of the grasslloppers
in parts of the state last year,
there are many places where their
eggs hatchod in enormous numbers
again the past spring and serious
losses will result unless prompt
measures are taken for the des-
truction of the young hoppers.
One OF the cheapest and best
hopper pans can be made in a short
time by any good timer. It con-
sists of a stout tin or sheetiron pan
eight to ten feet long, eighteen ill.,
ches wide, and two inches deep,
with three or four partitions across
it to prevent the sloping of the
liquids it is to contain. The pan
should have back about eighteen
inches in height, either of tin or of
cloth, to prevent the grasshoppers
from jumping over it as it is drag
ged across the field. In the pan
there must be enough coal oil to
wet any grasshopper that jumped
into it. The pan may be drawn
over the field either by hand or by
horse power. Ifhorses arc used,
it is better to hitch one In front Of
either end Of tho pan. Every
grasshopper that jumps into the
kerosene and out again will as
surely die as if he had remained
in tho pan, even though his legs
alone are wet. II will pay to keep
this work up 80 long as two or
three bushels of hoppers can be
taken in a day. Tho quantity
taken will probably be less than
a fourth of the quantity killed as
SO many jump from the pan.

Mr.. Bryan's speech in New York
was defense of the Chicago plat
form intended to influence men not
by word pictures, beautiful Ian
guage and appeals to their enthusi-
asm, but by appeals to their reason,
their thought, their judgement.
That he can sway multitudes by his
eloquence is admitted by all; that
he also possesses the power to move
men by addressing himself to their
minds is shown in his New York
speech. He was moderate
in language but plainly put before
the people of New York that the
Democratic party was not band of
robbers; that it stood for good
money, was as much interested in
good money as any other party, but
that it did not believe the present
policy of the Government in aiding
in degrading one form of currency to
assist in the appreciation of another
form was fair, just, right or con-
ducive to the best interests of all the
people. In short, the poor are be-
coming poorer and the rich richer,
under the overpowering influence of
the money power in legislative halls
under the existing financial policy,
and such results cannot be of bene-
fit to the people of this republic
