SAN FRANCISCO, July 9.-While
parts of the country were suffering
from floods sandstone did $1,000
900 damage in the Indio valley, on
the Southern Pacific railroad, in the
Colorado desert. An artificial oasis
of 900 acres had been made by digging
artesian wells and planted in melons.
Judging by last year, when only sixty
acres were in cultivation, profit of
more than $1,000 an acre would have
been made. Three hundred carloads
of melons, for which $1,000 car had
been offered, were almost ready for
shipment when the storm broke. For
three days it ragged, with the thermom-
eter 126 degrees in the shade, and
when it was over every bit of vegeta-
ton had been destroyed.

An Indian Territory volcano.

GUTHRIE, Okla, July 9.-Great ex-
element has been caused at Tulsa, L.
T., owing to the discovery by survey
ors working north of that place of
cracks i'll the sides of mountains, as
though from great pressure under
meath. Gas is escaping from the fis-
sures, and continual kissing and
roaring can be heard. On the extreme
top of the highest hill there has been
small volcano at work, raising up
large powders and tossing them aside.
Experts say it is great oil and gas
field and that pressure from a great
depth has caused the commotion.

DESTROY CATERPILLERS.
rcoNr1NuED FROM FIRST PAGE


shrubs. 1t is a solitary caterpillar,
i. g., it makes no nests and forms nc
colonies. 1t has a bright red head,
row of four yellow tufts looking
like round paint brushes on it's back,
and long pencils of black hair at
either end.
These caterpillals came from the
brittle white masses of eggs which
remained on trees and elsewhere
| through the winter, and each shifts
| for itself as soon as it finds place
to feed Early in July the larvae be-
come full grown and spin a thin sort
of cocoon on the trunks or branches
of the trees or on fences or any
where else where the least projection
affords foothold In a week or ten
DAYS the moths appear, and of these
the males and females are very
different in appearance. The males
have broad dusty gray wings expand
ing about an inch when spread. The
females have no wings at all and are
gray, grub like creatures that cling
to the cocoon from which they
emerged In due time eggs are laid
on this same cocoon and these are
covered by white frothy mass that
becomes hard and brittle after few
hours exposure to the air. By the
middle of July, or earlier the second
brood of caterpillars appear, and
they come to full growth in Septem-
ber Moths hatch as before and the
eggs that remain over are laid in
October.
AS to this species the probability
of an attack may be determined by
any one who cares to look for the egg
masses. They are very conspicuous
now. from their white color; but be-
come less so as they are coated with
dust and dirt and stained by rains,
etc. Taking the State at large,
anticipate almost as many as were
present this year, but this is not
true of all localities.
Measures against this species are
somewhat different from those used
against the previous species. During
the winter gather and burn all the
egg masses wherever they are seen
and, if possible, clean the trees COM
pletely. If this is properly done they
will soon remain free from these
pests, because as the female has no
wings and cannot fly some caterpil-
lars must first crawl on again from
some other point. To avoid this, band
the trees with some contrivance that
will prevent the insects from reach
ing the foliage. All sorts of fitting are
in use-metal troughs, tin cones. fly
paper, tar and numerous others. The
simplest effective band is one of cot
ton batting. First smooth the trunk
so that the material will fit close,
then tie band six inches wide with
thick soft cord or tape so that the
smooth or glazed side is against the
trunk and the fluffy side is out. Tie
about two inches from the lower edge
of the band and then turn down the
upper four inches so that it forms a
sort of sloping roof or inverted funnel
arrangement. This brings the glazed
surface out and that sheds water
to some extent, making it less easy
to soak by rain. Any caterpillar
reaching this band will get entangled
in the fluffy cotton which gives nc
| foothold and will drop or return.
If tree does become infested, the
recommendation as to spraying fo1
the fall web worm apply equally
| we'll here.

Hattie Over n Tin cun.

LACROSSE, Wis, July Throwing
out of quarrel over the possession OF
a tin cup at a street drinking fountain,
a riot was precipitated here which in
point of numbers and intensity of ex-
element surpassed anything of the
kind ever seen in this city. The battle
was between the Assyrian colony of
the north side and several hundred
railroad men. About 300 of the 800
Assyrians of the colony were engaged.
The fight lasted for an hour. Several
shots were fired, but most of the battle
was fought with clubs. Knives also
came into play. None of the bullets
took effect but one man was stabbed
several times, and several were badly
beaten
