How Insect. Hide From Enemies.

How Insects Hide From Enemies.
How many have aver noticed the
skillful way in which many insects dis.
guise themselves when in danger from
some larger animal or bird? Probably
you have all observed that the .caterpil.
lar "plays dead" when he is disturbed,
and that many insects choose for their
homes some tree or shrub whose bark or
foliage matches themselves in color.
There is certain variety of moth,
quite common around elms, which fixes
its wings so that they closely resemble
spots or lichens on the bark of the tree
and can only be detected by a trained
eye. Another moth, whose principal
colors are pink and yellow, arranges
itself on the blossom of a primrose so
as to wholly escape notice. In the East
Indian islands there is IL spider which
reposes OH the upper side of a large leaf
in such shape that it perfectly resem-
hles decayed matter.
a hunter in tropical regions tells Of
seeing il cricket pursued around the
trunk nf a tree by Il lizard. Suddenly
the insect settled itself i'll q small de-
preston in the bark. spread put its
wings slightly and flattened itself so
that the lizard actually crawled over it
and went away without ever knowing
what had become of it.-Lewiston Jour

Reports from Pierre state that the
firm of Brown & Saenger, Of Sioux
Falls, are opposing the bill introduced
in the legislature to regulate the pur-
chase of supplies by state and county
officers. They oppose it, they say, be-
cause sits too selfish and narrow"
This bill was introduced, as we under
stand it, because both party platforms
last fall pledged their nominees to
favor such a bill. The Sioux Falls firm
certainly takes a broad and most UNI
selfish view of it, but we'll venture the
assertion that if this bill did not re-
quire county officers to purchase what
supplies they could in their own coun-
ty the Sioux Falls printers and book
binders would be favoring it. The bill
merely goes further than some folks
planned, that's all.

Struck the B. & 0. Bridge.

The Smoky Crty, a towboat be-
longing to s. S. Krump &c Co., of Pitts

morning and badly damaged a barge

The towboat had an extra big tow of
barges and as it passed under the B. e.

north pier and were broken loose from
the tow One of the flats sunk with
the coal in it, while the other over
turned, emptied the coal into the river
and floated down the river.
The barge struck the pier and was
badly twisted and squeezed and it be-
gan to leak, as did the third fuel fiat,
which got caught in the jarl

put syphons to work and hoped to save

vicinity of about 600 trees each that
are old enough TO bear barrel or
two to the tree and they will not pro-
duce a peck apiece.
Corn planting is late and the ground
is hard and cloddy. Potatoes are look

Suppress AIumned Food.

The doctors inform us that alum is
poison, and that alum baking pow
ders should be avoided because they
make the food unwholesome. Promi-
net hyglenists, who have given the
matter most study, regard these pow
ders as an evil that should be SUI
pressed by state action. In Minnesota
and Wisconsin alum powders are not
permitted to be sold unless they are
branded to warn consumers of their
true character, wnile in the District CT
Columbia the authorities have under
the direction Of Congress adopted reg
ulations to prohibit tue use of alum in
bread altogether.
Are not the people of other states, as
well as those of Minnesota and Wis
consln, entitled to warning of danger
which is apparently menaclng them
at close hand, and Is not the whole
country entitled to absolute protection
as the people Of tne District of Column
bla are protected, by legislation wlch
is ent.rely prohlbitive?
Until we can have protection in the
form of Il statute, how can our state
boards of health, state analysts or food
commissions better serve the public
than by publishing in the newspapers
from time to time the names of the
baking powders whicn they find to be
made from alum!
Meantime, it will aid the housewife
m designating the alum powders to re.
member that all powders sold at TWEEN.
ty-five cents or less per pound are oil

tartar powders are usually sold al
