THE TEREDO AND ITS RAvAGEs.
Greatest Enemy to Everything Wood
 Submerged In Salt Water

Greatest Enemy to Everything Wood Submerged In Salt Water
 On the various forms of animal life
 that cause damage by their habits of
 boring into various substances, the
 Teredo navalis, or Ship worrn," as it Is
 commonly called, easily heads the list
 for general destructiveness. It Is found
 in every sea, and every piece of un-
 protected timber immersed in salt
 water is subject to It's ravages It
 works secretly, silently and efrectually
 A timber may appear prefectly sound upon the surface, but upon cutting into it. it will be found fairly honey combed with the passages drilled by this indefatigable miner. Teredos be- long to an old and well-scattered family. They were we'll known to the ancients, who found the problem of protecting their ships bottoms from the ravages of the pest a most serious one Tn 1731 Holland came near suffering an inundation through the agency of these creatures. The Zeal and dikes were found ready to collapse by reason of long-continued attacks on the part of teredos and had not the situation been discovered most de- plorable consequences must have re- suited. The teredo is a cylindrical worm shaped creature. and as found in Pacific coast waters Is usually atout a foot in length and rarely exceeds half an inch in diameter. The head con- tains the boring apparatus, which con sists of two peculiarly shaped shells. These working together have an action closely resembling an auger bit. The long, whip-like body is nearly trans parent and so tender that 1t will hard ly bear its own weight. The creature bores into the timber when it Is very small and at once commences active labor. It invariably pores in the direc-

of horses, Each shepherd also takes
 with him a number of dogs. As soon ai
 the sheep are started out they will form
 a line perhaps a quarter of a mile
 wide and will go straight across the
 country, clearing off the grass and al
 vegetation as closely almost as prairie
 fire. Cattle, on the contrary, scatters
 and crop grass over wide extent of
 territory. It is a strange fact that when a bunch of cattle on the range
 comes to one of these trails they will refuse to cross it, and will turn away
 in some other direction.
 Some shrewd sheepmen have taken | advantage of this fact by feeding their sheep in a huge circle, thus inclosing
 great extent of good grazing territory into which the cattle refuse to enter.
 In this way sheep herder sometimes
 reserves enough country to pasture his
 flock for an entire season, to the great wrath of neighboring cattlemen. One of the localities where the fight between the sheep and cattlemen has reached climax of violence is the northwest corner of Colorado. There the oattlemen are in control and are apparently determined to maintain their supremacy at al hazards. Some time ago bold sheep herder defied the cattleman and drove his band of 2,5O0 sheep over the state line into the prom ised land. A few nights later the cat tlemen of the vicinity rode down on the band of sheep, started 1t down a mountain road in a panic, and never stopped until most of the sheep had been driven over high precipice to de- struction. The remnant of the band were taken out of the cattle country as quickly as possible.
 On another occasion band of sheep were driven into cattle district in the face of repeated warnings. One night when the shepherd was asleep some cattlemen rode, among the flock with pickaxes in their hands and did not stop until nearly fifteen hundred sheep had been slaughtered as they lay.
 The fight is likely to come up in some form at the Chicago convention though exactly what action can be taken look ing to it's settlement is difficult to see.
 As for the cattlemen they are not sat- isf1ed even with cutting down the time required for preparing their cattle for market from six or seven years to two years. Some of them are at present engaged in raising what is called baby beef" In the process of preparing this baby beef' for market calf is taken short after birth and put into what Is practically forcing room. It is kept eating almost all the time, and only the most nutritious foods are given it. In this way weight is put on with great rapidity, so that 1t attains almost it's full growth before it becomes a 2-year- old. Many people do not like baby l beef" and it is not likely that the plan l will be generally adopted. One Of the | most interesting features of the con- vention is expected to be the announce ment of the results of the recent census | of live stock in the United States. in | taking which the National Live Stock | co-operated with the census This is expected to be the | first complete live stock census ever taken In this country. the Chlca- go Tribune.

He is, however. one of the most prominent of such in Great Britain, and has be- longed to something like twenty clubs.

WAR OVER DOGS

The Town Council and Chief of Police
George H. Davis, of Smyrna, have a diff
ference of opinion over the dog ordinance,
which goes into effect June l. The
councilmen have instructed the officers to
kill all dogs found running at large upon
any street, alley or lane in the town
without a muzzle on and after Saturday
next, naming Joseph Cummins as an
assistant to Policemen Davis and Turner.
The chief says he will not kill one dog
and has so informed several members of
the Council. If he persists in holding
out against the order his discharge will
follow. He has been on the force but
two months, and his resignation will
likely leave the town without a chief for
sometime, as there will not be rush of
applicants for the position unless the
salary is raised.
