Destroyers of Wheat.

A farmers bulletin treating
 of the principal insect enemies ot
 growing wheat has been prepared
 by c. L. Mar1att, first assistant
 entomOlogist of the Department
 of Agriculture. MT. Mar1att
 discusses the chinch bug, He's
 sian fly, wheat midge, wheat
 plant louse, straw worms, bulb
 worms, army worms and saw
 flies. "There are numerous
 insects" he says the number
 running into the hundreds,
 which feed on an injure
 growing wheat. Most of these insects are of rare or chance occurrence, and have no ec- onomic importance whatever, althO the fact that they are found on wheat often leads the farmers to be curious about them or unnecessarily arouses his fears. The great proportion of the losses to wheat fields which IS chargeable to insects is due to the attacks of less than a half dozen species. These, in the order to their importance, are the chinch bug, the Hessian fly, the wheat midge and the grain plant louse. Of second-rate importance are such insects as the wheat straw worm, the wheat bulb worm army worms, cut worm and various saw flies. Then there follows a great horde of insects of minor which need not be considered in this connection This is leaving out of consider at1On the lOCuStS, or graSShopperS 1 including the Rocky mountain, or migratory species, which oc- ;asionally injure wheat, but such Is unusual aud as a rule | limited to migratons of 1ocusts rom one section to another. which are of infrequent occur ence nowadays, at least in the winter wheat growing egionS, and have never been note worthy except in the western IiStricts." MT. Mar1att recom- nends clean culture and rotation If crops as the best and simplest means of preventing the increase If the pests.

COLFAX COLLEGE,.

Miss Mcdonald of EIberton entered on
her second college year Monday.
The new piano has arrived, much to
the satisfaction of those who are taking
music lessons. The college is to be con
graduated on securing the services OF
Miss Mae Baker Hs instructor OF music,
Miss Baker is SO well and favorably
known i'll Colfax as to need no intrOduc-
ton or words of recommendation.
With new officers, an abundance OF en-
thusiasm and a determination to con-
duet heir meetings in a way that the
students may derive some benefit from
them, the Clionian society will render it's
first program of this year next Friday
evening, October IS. Among the stu
dents of this year will be found many OF
signal ability in literary work, and we
expect some interesting programs from
them.
Financially, the college is already in
an independent condition. Under the
administration of Prof. Pace the $1,000
Indebtedness of year ago has been re-
duced to the minimum amount OF 5000,
which will soon be paid. When once
these old debts are out of the way, &c
that the surplus eau he used in building
and improving. there is every reason to
believe that Colfax college will rank
among the best OF it's kind.
