The Mistake Of the Polar Bear.

Nordenskiold found that the white
bears generally went through long
performance of stalking his sailors.
clearly on the mistaken conclusion that
they We're seals. AS the men We're
clothed partly in sealsllin, it was very
natural mistake. But the interest of
the story lies in the generalization
made by the bear. The bear said:
"There are two or three seals, one
standing up on it's f1ippers in very
unusual way. l will therefore stalk
them unseen as long as l can and
when they see me pretend to be doing
something else"
So the men, with their guns and
lances, who wanted to shoot the bear
had the pleasure Of seeing him careful

paws covering his black muzzle. the
only thing not matching the snow
about him. Just as the bear thought
he had got his seal the latter free

During the pact week exp. rimenling
with the locust fungus has been con
dnued by the undersigned with the view
o. determining @hether or not the rem-
sdy is efiectual 10 tho obstruction OF
rather the checking Of the grasshoppers
Of the country Many specimens OF the
inocuiatsd hoppers have been distributed
promiscuouly among the rancemen Of
the country, and careful Instructions
have been given with each lot, regarding
the best luethols Of distributing the des-
cas-. These instructions have been
carefully followed by an ranchmen that
have ae yet reported, and in several in
stances partial success has been noticed.
Three or foar parties have reported
that they could notice an appreciable
decrease IL the number Of hoppere Oh
the places where the diseased ones had
been turned loose whether or not this
can be attributed to the fungus disease
or to other causes will probably never be
known, but every point stands to reason
that the fungus has had some effect.
Full instructions as how the desease
could best be spread among the hoppers
and thereby check there ravages we're
printed in the columns Of the last week 3
INDEX and the writer, even though he
has had no instructions from the Dep
artment Of Agriculture regarding the
use Of the fungus does not deviate in
the least from the opinion set forth last.
and he does candidly believe that il that
couroe is properly pursued beneficial re-
suits will finally be achieved.
During the past week several OF the
hoppers were again confined with in
oculated ones and kept for the required
period Of three days. A great many
have died, apparently from the effects Of
the desease, but the results are not quite
50 complimentary as they we're last week
however, this collection Of hoppers il
older and most Of them are a great dea
larger than the ones Of the last week and
it is quite probably that the larger
hoppers will necessitate longer perioc
in which to become diseased and to die
than the smaller ones.
This theory is fairly we'll corroborateC
by the fact that large number Of thl
dead ones on the floor Of the box at thil
writing are small ones, and the ones tina
have withstood the desease best are thu
largest ones Of the collection.
The weather during the past TIVE
weeka,with the exception Of the last tw'
oithree days has been exceedingly fay
oiahle to ihs mtuuessipl spread Of thl
mosphere THESE small showers sns
cool weather 10 the opinion Of lhe writer
can well be congidered Of great beneh
10 the ranchmen from the standpoint o.
chronological reasoning. from the fac
that during these cool days the hopper
do not do the usual amount Of damage
even though they be in a normal con
dition and the humidity Of the air greatl,
favors the spread OF the desease.
