WORSE MEAT THAN GOAT.

The big packeries are now slaughter

all right. A juicy Texas angora is

to an Indian. The angora is all right.

GETTING RID OF MOSQUITOES.

The Methods Which a Government En-
tomologist Favors.
Dr. l.. 0. Howard of the United
States Department of Agriculture, in
discussing the proper means to get rid
of mosquitoes indoors, says the burn
ing of pyrethrum powder and the
catching of the moquitoes on the walls
with kerosene in cups are probably
the best, next to thorough screening
and mosquito bars about the bed
altogether" continues Mr. How
ard, 1.-The most satisfactory ways of
fighting mosquitoes are those which
result in the destruction of the larvae,
or the abolition of their breeding
places. In not every locality are these
measures feasible, but in many places
there is absolutely no necessity for the
mosquito annoyance. The three main
preventive measures are the draining
of breeding places, the introduction of
small fish into fishlesS breeding places,
and the treatment of such pools with
kerosene. These are three alterna-
tives, any one of which will be effica-
cious, and any one of which may be
used where there are reasons against
the trial of the Others"
In 1892 Mr.. Howard published the
first account of extensive outdoor eX-
periments to determine the actual eff
feet upon the mosquitoes of thin
layer of kerosene upon the surface of
water in breeding pools, and the rela-
tive amount to be used. He showed
the quantity of kerosene necessary for
given water surface, and demon
strated further that not only are the
larvae and pupae thereby destroyed al
most Immediately, but that the female
mosquitoes are not deferred from at
tempting to OvipOsit upon the surface
of the water, and that they are thus
destroyed in large numbers before
their eggs are laid He also showed
approximately the length of time for
which one such treatment would re-
main operative. No originality was
claimed for the suggestion, but only
for the more or less exact experimental
ton.
The quantity of kerosene to be prac-
tically used is approximately one ounce
to fifteen square feet of water surface,
and ordinarily the application need
not be renewed for one month.
The introduction of fish into fishless
breeding places is another matter. 1t
breeding places with kerosene, as, for
instance, water which is intended for
drinking, although this has been done
without harm in tanks where, as is
customary, the drinking supply is
drawn from the bottom of the tank.
Where kerosene is considered objec-
tionable, and where fish cannot be
readily obtained, there is another
course left open. 1t is the constant
artificial agitation of the water, since
mosquitoes will oviposit only in still
water. At San Diego, Tex, in the
summer there are no streams for many
miles, but plenty of mosquitoes breed
in the water tanks. Some enterprising
individuals keep their tanks free by
putting in little wheel, which is
turned by the windmill and keeps the
water almost constantly agitated.-

Side Issues.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t would be well If The Stars views Of
side issues were accepted by the beef
commission. The general public under
stand the question, and it is that they want
settled. They do not care a straw to whom
General Miles made his statements. That
is a bagatelle. They want to know whether
the statements are true. They do not care
how much good beef was sent to Cuba;
they want to know whether bad beef was
sent. With more of our soldiers dying of
disease than of wounds, they want to know
whether this terrible sacrifice was to any
considerable extent needless; whether men
were poisoned by greed on the one hand
and incompetency on the other. If testi-
mony can prove anything it has proved
that the soldiers were served with foul
by investigating the several methods of
packing and canning in Chicago. 1t cannot
be set aside by any number of witnesses
who may not have seen bad beef served
out 1t is one of the primary laws Of evil
dence that no amount of negative testf-
mony can offset the positive testimony Of
few reliable witnesses, or even of one.
If the commission is satisfied that the
charges in regard to bad beef are true, and
are now trying to fix responsibility, very
we'll But we hope they will hold them
selves to the main point and not drift off
upon side issues. c.

c. H. Townsend, a member Of thu fish
commission, gave a very interesting lec-
ture at the McKendree Church last night.
He described number of trips he has
made on the Atlantic and Pacific oceans in
the fish commission steamer Albatross, and
showed many handsome lantern slides by
yay of illustration. He said it is known
that in prehistoric times many sea mon-
sters existed, and while these are supposed
ly extinct he considers IT by no means Inn
ing in great depths. Once in a while, per-
haps, one of them might come to the sur
face and In this manner the fabulous
stories about sea serpents, which most peo-
Pile laugh at, could be explained as correct.
