Of the prickly pear. The males of the
Coccus cacti, as the species is called,
are minute insects furnished with we'll

on the other hand, the female is re-

very short posterior hairs, and nearly
double the size of her partner, These
insects adhere tightly to the smooth
surface of the fleshy leaves of the
prickly pear, and are not unlike small
purple wood ice in general appearance.
When the harvest time has arrived
the cultiyators stretch out on the
ground pieces of linen at the foot of
the plants. and detach the cochineals
from them. brushing the plants with
rather hard brush or scraping them
off with blunt knife. If the season
be favorable the operation may be re-

the year on the same plantation. The
insects thus collected are killed by dip

In commerce three sets of cOchineal
are recognized: first. the mastique, of
Il reddish color, with Il more or less
abundant glaucOuS powder: second, the
noir, which is large and blackish
brown in color, and, third, the sylves-
trc which is smaller and of II reddish
color. This last description, which is
gathered from wild cacti, is the most
highly esteemed of all. Each year there
are imported into France 200, 900 kilo-
grammes of cochineal insects, which
represent Il value of about 100000
francs.
The cOchneal trade is chiefly in the
hands of the Spanish and the French.
BY the latter government these insects
have been successfully introduced into
Algeria, where they yield II large rev.
enue About the middle of the last CEN
tury the government was accustomed
to purchase the entire harvest, at the
rate of 10 francs the kilogramme. At
the still earlier date they We're intro
duced into the Canaries, where they
have also become we'll established; but
the attempts to accimutize them in
Corsica and the south of France re-
suited in failure.

"a heavy iainstorm last week
caused about the worst food seen in
the anthracite region in the last twen-
ty years." says the Engineering and
Mining Journal of Saturday. "The
damage was widespread and resulted
in an almost total suspension of ship
ments during most of this week.
Mines situated in low ground were
flooded, those OH higher ground We're
bothered by the great increase of sur
face water while railroad tracks were
submerged and bridges washed away.
The damage was heaviest in the Lee
high and Susquehanna regions. the
mines in the Wyoming valley suffering
less and those in the Lackawanna re-
gion least. 1t Is as yet impossible to
estimate the full amount of the dam
age, but many mines will not be in
shape to run for several days yet, in
some cases considerably longer. Very
little coal has arrived in New York
this week. The Delaware and Hud-
son. which of all the great coal roads
suffered least, has been bothered by Il
congestion of general freight on the
Erie, but got some coal through early
in the week, sending it by way of AL
bany over the New York Central.
1.-The Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western mines suffered from surface
water and the main line was bothered
by washouts and floods, but it has not
suffered so much as some other COM
panies. The Lehigh river went on a
rampage and practically no Lehigh
valley coal came through from the
mines up to Thursday. Up to the
same day, the Lehsh and Wilkes
Barre company had not succeeded in
getting a single car through to New
York harbor. The Reading also Jared
badly. 1t has got practically no coal
through and is temporarily out of the
market, it's New York sales agent de-
Clning to take orders until many
mines We're pumped out and it's lines
in better shape for transportation.
With fair weather all roads should be
in shape for their usual tonnagcs by
the end of next week.
''ln the Northwest, retail buying has
improved with Il cold wave, and the
movement of coal from the docks is
steady. Colder weather in Chicago
territory has brought out q heavy de-
,nand from retailers and trade is ac-
tive. Receipts by Lake at Chicago
years figures. The winters temper
ature will determine whether or not
docks will be cleaned up by next
spring. Receipts of all-rail coal were
fairly liberal, but are expected to he
very scanty until the mines are again
in good working order. At lower lake
points and in Canadian territory de-
mand is good, but very little coal is
going forward Along the Atlantic
seaboard, retail trade is in good con-
ditiOn. AT New York harbor ports, as
noted above, the railroads are deliver
ing very little coal and most of them
are temporarily out of the market
