The Tobacco Horn Worms.
Herewith we illustrate two species OF
the tobacco horn worm. A report OF
the Department Of Agriculture says of

them: There are two species Of large
sphinx moths whose larvae or cater
pillars, eat the leaves Of tobacco, to-
mato and allied plants, including ,oc-
casionally the Irish potato. These
caterpillars, from the fact that each
bears upon one of the posterior seq
ments OF it's body a rather stout
curved horn. have become popularity
known as horn worms. Tobacco grow
ers do not distinguish between the two
different kinds of horn worms, and for
practical purposes it is not in the least
necessary that they should distinguish
them. As matter Of general inter-
est, however, it may be stated that the
horn on the end of the body of Caro-
lima is red, while that Of Celeus is
black. Both are green in color with
oblique white stripes on the side Of
the body These ~naotlas OF -tl1e--ewo
species may be distinguished from tho

y 00 the iirst Of July The Division Of
Forestry and three other scientific d.
VISIONS Of the q. 8. Department of
Agriculture were advanced to bu-
rssus. This was provided for by the
last session ofssconsress. which appro-
prdated for the expenses Of the, Bu-
Eeau Of Forestry during Its nrst year
ylsb. 40. The appropriation for the
Dliviston Of Forestry during THO year
Just ended was 3ss,52o. For the year
189S-9o 1t was $2S,520.
These figures show how rapidly the
forest work Of the governmsnt has ex-.
banded Of late, and also how well 1t
has commended Itself to congress-
There was q time when. the practical
value OF the sclsntific Investigations
carried on by the government was not
fully understood. and farmers were in
'clined to think that the money spent
on experiment stations and chemical
laboratories was Of little benefit to
them. Now the case is very different.
Inc Improvements in agriculture due
10 the work Of the department have in
creased the value Of the farm products
OF the country by many millions Of
dollars annually AS this kind Of work
mas proved its practical utility, con-
gress has shown itself generous toward
II. The readiness with which congress
mas increased the appropriations for
the Division of Forestry Is the best
evidence that forestry has proved its
from "a business standpoint.
The change from Division to a
bureau, and the larger appropriation,
Will make possible both an improved
Office organization and more extended
Held work. The Bureau will be pro-
yided with q much larger Office force
ana Will be organized In three Divi-
'slons. But field work, not Office work,
is what the Bureau exists for. This
WORK has been going on during the last
year from Maine to California and
from Georgia to Washington. It in
Guides the study OF forest conditions
and forest problems all over the coun-
try, the giving OF advice to owners Of
forest lands. and the supervising of
conservative numbering operations
which illustrate forest management on
business principles. This work can
now be greatly extended. Private own
ers OF some three million acres have
applied for this advice, which in every
case requires personal examination,
and about $4,000 acres have been put
under management. This land Il in
many tracts, large and small. and is
owned by individuals, clubs, and cor
porations. Several state governments
nave also asked the aid of the Blu
reau. But the greatest demand is that
OF the Department of the Interior Of
National government, which has asked
for working plans for all the forest re-
serves. with the enormous total area
of about AZ million acres.

Wonders Of Dying Dolphin.

We We're on a sailing ship, seven
passengers Of us, bound from Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil, to New York. Our
ship was bark, the Adelaide Fender
CAST, owned in New York. She had
been long out from her home harbor,
first to Cadiz, Spain, with merchan-
disc; thence to Rio de Janeiro, for
coffee, with which she was now laden.
Her crew were Norwegians, her master
Capt. John Lawson, as jolly an Irish
man as ever sailed the salty waves,
says a writer in Forest and Stream.
"Hurrah!" cried the captain one day.
Here is something new for you! Come
and see a dolphin, the most beautiful
fish that lives in water" We made a
rush for the bulwarks, and to our de-
light saw swimming along with us sew
eral emerald-hued fish, from three to
hve feet long, graceful in shape and
motion. Their bodies were like satin,
of delicate green shading to a deeper
hue at the fins. Darling and whirling,
they changed places rapidly, moving
from one side of the ship to the other.
I'll give you a sight you never saw
BEFORE" exclaimed the captain. "You
shall see dying dolphin He brought
his gig, small harpoon, with it's cruel
hshhook darts, and fastening line to
Its long handle, made it secure around
his wrist. Cant hook these fellows
with hook and line," he said. We
had already been RECALLED with shark
and, -harra n,,A - s-----&a->--aa..o rUnoI Aung
at the stern; The captain leaned over
the rail. With 1.-THE motion the fish
darted under the weapon suspended
over them. A quick plunge, with sure
aim, green flash through the air, and
the struggling, leaping victim was
landed on the deck. And now we saw
the dying dolphin. Let scientists ex-
plain how it changes its colors; we can
but make record of it's appearance. The
glowing green died away to silver.
This became spotted with blue, which
gradually spread until the whole fish
was sapphire color. Waves Of gold
flashed over it. growing deeper until it
was golden fish, only to be trans
formed into roseate one by spots
which came and extended, Thus from
color to color changed the cleaning
sides of the quivering beauty of the
deep, until pity was almost forgotten
in admiration and we exclaimed:
"Never have we seen anything more
beautiful than dying dolphin" We
were practical enough to enjoy the
friend fish. of delicate golden brown,
which was welcome relief to our
salty bill Of fares but that is common
place recollection compared in the
minds eye with the memory Of the
fish, which. swanlike. yields its charms
in the dying hour.
