In the caucus in Lancaster last Sat
urday the LaFollette men had so safe
majority and were so thoroughly or
gained that they could well have af-
forded to be just if not generous to
their opponents. The printed ticket
for chairman and for congressional
delegates. the arbitrary denial to the
minority OF the privilege Of debate
and the subsequent permitting, and
greeting with applause, remarks tend
ing to make LaFollette men more con-
fident and enthusiastic, the lack of
courtesy in appointing all four tellers
from one faction and the refusal to
permit division of the house on the
question of shutting off debate, all in
dictate disposition on the part OF the
men appointed to manage the caucus,
to domineer and ''feed fat an ancient
grudge'' rather than desire to nom
mate good men and promote the well
fare of the republican party. This fac
tional warning among the republicans
OF Lancaster is unwise and injurious
to all concerned. 1t weakens the in
fiuenee Of Lancaster men in the coun-
ellis Of the party, lessons their chances
for nomination and election to office,
and tends toward the decentralization
of republieanism in the county.

The Army Worn,

The army worm is the larva of a
night-tlying moth the scientific name
Of which is heliophila unipunetata.
The appearance Of theworm varies with
the progress of its growth. When full
size it is from one to two inches in
length and is of dark gray color with
three yellow stripes along the back
and broader yellow stripe along each
side. The meth is bronish in color and
has white dot in the center OF each
fore wing.
In this latitude the eggs are depos-
tied in May or June about the time
that vegetation is well started. by the
moths that have lived through the
winter. The usual place for the de-
post is between the stalk and sheath
Of grass or grain. The eggs hatch in
10 or 20 days and the young caterpil-
lars feed voraciously. They attain
full growth in about twenty-five days.
They then enter the ground to a mod
crate depth. throw off their outer skin
and change to the pupa state. In
about three weeks this stage is COM
P eted and the perfect moth is pro-
duced.
OF their rayages Dr. Fitch the bota-
mist, says: They keep together like
an army of soldiers and usually adj
vance in straight line. not varying
from their conrse to avoid hills, hol-
lows, buildings or any other obstacle.
A stream of water even does not
cause them to defect from their line
of march,
Another writer says: I'm extensive
invasions, the front OF the army has
IA breadth of two or three miles,
advancing at the rate of six
miles day = rhe cotton worm
OF the south, also called army worm,
is more active and more trouble
some. Three broods of this pest APP
pear each season; it is especially
destructive to the cotton plant.
The ravages of the army worm may
be checked in measure by blowing a
deep furrow around the field in which
it is found and then crushing or burn
ing those that fall in.
