They Have Become An Intoierabie
Nuisance-Dcstroy Crops.
Experts connected with the entomo-
logical department of the Nebraska
university are giving much thought to
the discovery OF means of exterminat-
Ing the jack rabbit. which has become
an intolerable nuisance. He is an in
teresting specimen OF the useless
among animals, and can be explained
only on the ground advanced by the
German father in reply to the in
quiry of his son as to what the kan
CARGO was good for: "Well my boy,
the Australians must have something
10 laugh at"
Nebraska has two varieties, the black
.ail and the silver tail, but while dis
tinct varieties there is no appreciablc
difference In their size, habits or food
preferences. The females OF the spe-
cies are surprisingly prolific.
Nature doubtless has some use for
jack rabbits, but did not want too
many of them. So their natural enemy
was provided in the coyote, who kept
them within bounds. But the coyote Is
a disagreeable neighbor and the Ne
braska authorities offered a bounty for
coyote scalps which resulted in their
practical determination.
This was the jack rabbits opportun-
ity, says the New York Times. He
put his house In order and proceeded
to devote his best energies to the rails
Ing OF children, In which he has been
remarkably successful. But the Ne
braska farmers are not much better
satisfied with them than with the coy
otes.
They argue that while farming may
be a healthful and agreeable ccupa
ton, 1t is not wholly satisfactory from
the economic point Of view II the farm
er's principal business in life is To raise
food for the jack rabbits, who appro-
PIRATE 1t without compensation. The
result of his dissatisfaction will I'M
doubtedly be that the Jack rabbit will

The war cloud which now hovers
over the two South American republics,
Chile and Argentina. has arisen out Of
the dispute over the boundary line be-
tween these countries. shown on the
accompanying map, In the range of
mountains running north and south.
Should war eventuate the two repub-
lies will find themselves very evenly
matched. Neither has the advantage
OF the other in the matter Of coast ex-
posure and coast defense. Argentina,
of course, is a much larger country in
area and has q population approxi-
mately of 1900, 900. while Chile has n
population OF about 5000 900. The area
of Chile Is 200, 500 square miles, while
that OF Argentina, including its terri
tories. Is 1,1i3,S49 square miles. The

Argentine navy consists OF four coast
defense armor-clads, five armored cruis-
ers. three second class cruisers Of high
speed and seven smaller cruisers of
modern construction, together with
four destroyers and twenty-five tor
pedo boats. The Chilean feet consists
OF five armor-clads, two sccond-class
and two third-class cruisers. eleven

ers of new make and thirty-knot speed.
and nineteen torpedo boats. OF the two
navles by far the best boat Is the
cruiser O'Higgins. built at Eiswick for
Chile in 1896, and a fine vessel In all
respects. She has a displacement OF
$500 tons and carries four eight-inch
guns. With these forces, based on

Adaptability of yyheats.

Probably no better work is being
done by any of the experiment stations
than by those that are ascertaining by
actual practice what wheats are adapt
ed to the states in which said stations
are situated. One of the most costly
mistakes Of our agriculturists is the at
tempt to grown varieties of fruits and
plants over wide areas of country very
diverse in soil and characteristics. Be-
cause certain variety Of wheat has
been found to be best in the state of
Ohio it has been assumed that the
same variety would do we'll in all other
states in the area in which wheat is
grown extensively. But tests at other
stations show that this does not fol-
low. The problem cannot be worked
out in one state and serve as the an
swer of the same problem in all the
states. AS an illustration OF this we
refer to Minnesota, which has been for
many years experimenting along this
line. So far hard Fyfe and Blue Stem
have been found to be best adapted to
Minnesota conditions. These TWO
wheats have not been found to be the
best in some of the other states. What
Is true Of the states is probably true
to some extent of the counties within
the states. The work of any station is
therefore as yet incomplete. The in
telligent farmer must to consider
able extent depend on his own expert
ments to determine what wheats will
give the best yield in his county and
on his own farm.

LARGER SCHOOL BUILDINGS RE-
OUIREO.

Owing to the recent large influx of
population into Western Canada 1t has
become absolutely necessary IN many
parts Of Manitoba, Assiniboia, Sas-
katehewan and Alberta TO increase the
school accommodation. In may places
buildings have been erected that are
only half-occupied. This is perhaps as
good evidence as will be found not
only of their satisfaction with their
present school system and their con-
fidence that 1t will remain as 1t Is, but
also of their firm belief in the future
expansion of the country, In increased
immigration, and 1t further indicates
that they have little fear that the well
established rate of births in civilized
communities will not be maintained
there.
The free homestead laws and the
cheap railway lands offer great induce
ments, which are opening up the new
settlements. Agents of the Govern
ment of Canada are actively at work
in different portions of the States for
the purpose of giving information to
possible settlers, and advertisements
are now appearing in a large number
OF papers, giving the names and loca-
lions of these agents

LACE LORE.

The revival of Irish lace dates from
the terrible Irish famine and fever
that caused desire to introduce some
industry that would help the women
to earn money; Irish crochet was en-
trely begun at that time.
Needle point represents the transit
ton phase between embroidery on fine
linen and the making of lace as a
separate and valuable fabric, in which
both the ornament and the ground
work are produced by the worker.
Lace proper only dates back to the
sixteenth century, and may be divided
into two classes, needlepoint, and
that which is produced by interweav-
ing threads with bobbins on pillow.
The great impetus to lace-making
in France, and the Low Countries was
given by Colbert, the famous minister
OF Louis Quartorze, who realized that
the prosperity of the country depend
ed very much on the small paying In
