WEST SIDE EVENTS.
Opposltloa Has Developed to the Pro-
posed Loession Of the Hospital In
the Freeman Homestead.

Opposition In its strongest form mas
arisen in the path of the West Side hos.
pital, which was to have been opeheu
in the Freeman mansion on South
Main avenue, corner Washburn street.
Residents of the locality are out with
petition which prays that the law in
tcrpose and compel the hospital asso-
citation to abandon the Freeman site
and look elsewhere for q place to es-
tablish the hospital. The reason given
IL that the intended location Is too CEN
trnl and IL the hospital were estaDiisn-
ed IL would be detrimental to the gen
eral interests Of the people and proper
~ owners who live or own property
near the Freeman house. Twelve
names were signed to the petition last
night.
Complaints are being made against
the owner OF the Freeman property.
Several months ago he sold portion
Of his lot In the rear Of the homestead

which was recently moved on the new
site. This. 1t Is claimed. is decidedly
obnoxious. The main point advanced
Is that the location is too much In the
heart Of the town. The opposition
think that It will be anything but a
pleasant sight to see the invalid and in
jured hospital candidates lounging
about in the open air when the near
by residents are enjoying themselves
on their house porches in the summer
evenings. The hurrylng of ambu-
lances. the groans of the injured, will,
according to the opposition, be. Very
disagreeable. ......

The Fed Scale of Florida In Ohio.

At the October meeting of the Co.
lumbus Horticultural society, Mr.. E.
4. Bogue. post graduate student of
the School of Agriculture of the Ohio
State University. reported having
found what appeared to be the Red
Scale of Florida (Aspidiotus fcus
Riley. on n fig plant (Ficus nitida) in
a conservatory of the botanical depart
ment of the State University Later
investigation proves the first suppose
ton to be correct.
The scale seems to have been intro
duced into this country from the island
of Jamaica, where it is probably na-
tive. 1t is common in Cuba and We're
Cruz. Mex. 1t has been reported from
japan. Australia and California. but
seems to be not we'll YER fed frcm the
last named locality, although there
are several published reports Of its &C.
currence there. 1t is particularly in-
furious to the orange trees in Florida.
Just how it came to Ohio can not now
be safely stated, as there is no
definite information At hand whence
tine plant came on which the scale is
to spread from this plant. We may
not be surprised, however, to find its
occurrence in Conservatives, but it is
very doubtful if it will ever become
acclimated to the natural climate OF
even the lowest latitude of Ohio.
The scales are all nearly circular,
the largest of the female scales being
about liz inch in diameter and the
males about Il as large. They occur
on both sides OF the leaves on this plrnt.
Although it is called red scale" it is
only the scales n few days old that
have any red color and then they are
pinkish. The mature scales are brown,
n litt1 lighter colored at the apex. IN
its native home it is said to produce as
many as five generations in a season,
but would probably not be SO prolific
under glass The Young scales have
been moving on to the young leaves of
the plant on which they are found |!
during the last half of October.
