The Hatch Experiment Station Of
the State College ut Amherst has just
issued bulletin No. 46, which is on
"The Habits, Food and Economic
Value of the American Toad" The
bulletin is the work of A. H. Kirkland,
assistant entomologist to the gypsy
moth committee. Mr.. Kirkland finds
that insects constitute seventy
per cent. Of the food Of toad. To
show the number of worms which a
toad destroys he states that in the
stomach of single toad were found
fifty-fve army worms, in another six
ty-fiye gypsy moth caterpillars, and in
a third thirty-seyen tent caterpillars.
He records an experiment where in
three hours time toad had consumed
between thirty and thirty-fve full
grown celery worms. He found by
examination of a large number of toads
that eighty-seven per cent of the in
sects they destroy are injurious to cul-
tivated crops, or in other ways obnox-
ious to man. A toad would devour, in
the months of May, June and July, the
following: 1912 ants, 2208 cut worms,
1910 myrapods, 22O8 sour bugs, 1858
weevils and 368 carabids. OF these
1896 are injurious insects, and 368
beneficial insects. Mr. Kirkland then
figures out the amount in dollars and
cents which toad may be worth.
Confning his attention to but one ele-
ment of the food, the cut worms, and
assuming that ten per cent, of these
insects would have been killed by the
carabid beetles, it still leaves 1888 cut
worms to the toad's credit; and if the
damage the cut worms would have
caused be estimated at one per cent.
per worm, a figure which gardeners
and tobacco growers will probably
consider ridiculously low, it will be
seen that a toad might destroy cut
worms which would otherwise have de-
stroyed crops to the extent of $19.88.

nous. slightly bitter plants. The ex-
oeption, however, is the blue weed.
The fact was observed during the
months Of February and March by DR..
Eommell and Professor A. Drescher,
a chemist of Newark The analysis
and experiments covered nearly six
weeks, and the scientists succeeded
in isolating a new alkaloid, destined
to play an important role in medi-
/ cine.
The substance found is identical
with "Curania, the alkaloid of Gu
rare or 'Woofara, the South Ameri-
can arrow poison, obtained from the
young branches of Strychnos castelnae
and Cocculus toxiferus. 1t may also
be obtained from different other plants

The poisoning principle in blut

The Use Of the Megaphone.

The reports of the rowing contests
have all contained reference to the
megaphone, through which the various
coaches communicated with the crews,
and accounts from the training head
quarters had similar references. The
simple instrument is found to be so
valuable as a means OF communication
that it is now looked upon as a part of
the necessary pharaphernalia in arrow
ing contest. The megaphone is sim
ply large cone from thirty to forty
eight inches long, made of waterproof
fibre or light metal. The voice of a
person speaking into the small end is
carried easily distance of a mile,
while a loud call, when neither wind
nor distractions interfere, may be
heard on the water, in open country
or along the shore q distance of two
miles.
The instrument is often used as a
receiver also. The small end is placed
at the ear, and sounds from distance
which would otherwise be inaudible
can be heard distinctly. The instru-
ment is usually held in the hands of
the person who uses it, like a speak
ing trumpet but it is constructed SO
that it can be fixed to a tripod or q
swivel, and the person using it may
remain seated and direct it to any
point. BY means of the megaphont
the audience at nearly all open-ail
athletic meetings are informed as to
the winners, and at these places, as
well as in the rowing world, it has be
come an invaluable instrument. -

weekly Market Review.

Early in the week the cotton market
ruled pretty steady, and prices moved
slightly upward, January reaching 6.SSc;
later, decided weakness set in and prices
fell sharply on Friday and Saturday, jan
uary selling as low as 6.54c on Saturday.
Some little reaction followed and the
close is about 20 points lower for most de-
liverles, November 6.53c, January, 6.61c.
Near months were even still weaker, and
September lost nearly 40 points, closing
657c The decline was caused by easier
markets abroad, and rapidly Increasing
receipts. Despite the fact that crop re-
ports are almost all to a greater or less
extent unfavorable and indicate a mate
rial falling off in condition in most sec
tons since Sept. !, the trade continues to
incline to the belief that the yield will,
prove very large There would seem to be
too much uncertainty over the matter yet
to warrant any such assurance, and con-
sequently 1t appears too early to depress
prices materially on the hasty expectation
of the largest crop on record. Hence al
though we can hardly look for any con-
siderable advance without a change in
crop sentiment or the appearance of some
new factor of strength, some recovery
from the recent break is not unlikely.
Wheat was qniet weak most OF the time,
and declined about &c, December reaching

aided by reports of favorable outlook for
the new crop in India and Argentina were
bearish influences. The European situ-

demand keeps right up. The speculation
has become htful and uncertain and sud
den changes both ways are probable But
the position does not appear TO warrant
any very heavy break.

ly unloading upon us some 200, 900 shares
OF railroad stock, has at last been caught
by the infection, and during this week has
been quite considerable buyer of our
issues. Having seen US take all they had
10 sell without vince, the British met
ropohtans have come to the conclusion
that there is more solidity than froth in
our boom, and are becoming eager to take
a hand in our game; and have to confess
that the time is past when in financial
operations, London can control New York.
The very large shipments Of currency to
the interior are beginning to direct atten-
tion to the course of the money market
1t is true, the reserves are still ample, but
there is no saying how much further the
shipments of money to the west and south
may run; and in any case the loans Of
the banks are expanded TO a degree never
before reached and continue each week to
increase. Under these circumstances, it is
gratifying to witness the drift in the for
e-gn exchanges towards the gold-import-
ing points The government report of
our foreign trade for the month Of Au-
gust shows that we cannot be far from
that stage. The exports of merchandise
for that month exceeded the imports
by A5'COOOO0, or allowing for net import
of S23OO,OO0 of gold by $4,000 600. For the
same period of 1896, the excess of exports
was only $22,00OOO0, and in 1895 the imports
exceeded the exports by $l3,0000OO. The
amount of stocks returned from London
during last month, are estimated to have
amounted to a value of about $1,000, 600;
which, deducted from the trade balance
above stated, would leave about $685. Co.,
900 to our credit from abroad at the end Of
August. 1t seems more than likely that
this, together with the subsequent large
excess of exports over imports, must pro-
duce an influx of gold at an early day, and
that to a liberal extent.
At the close of the week there is dis
position among the larger holders of
stocks to fortify themselves by partial
reaiizings In the present position of the
market, that course is prudent. Quite
an important line of stocks have had
unexpectedly large advances and pro-
cess of review and testing of conditions
might be a prudent means of preparing
for bear assaults which may be forth
coming. 1t is wise to guard against over
sanguine expectations. A steady advance
is far more certain way of reaching the
goal of higher prices than a sanguine pro-
cess of bulling which invites assault from
the pessimistic side.
