Tussles with the Black
Bass of the Sen.

Speaking of game sea fish" said the
angling doctor, according to the New
York Sun. reminds me that you seldom
hear much about the kingfsh. He is
more nearly the prototype of the fresh
water black bass than any native of the
sea, so far as my experience goes.
He has the same symmetrical body.
the same untiring spirit and affords the
angler an equal amount of sport. He
seldom attains to the weight of his fresh
water congener. In near by waters ii Is
| unusual to hook kingfish of more than
two pounds. but every ounce in those
two pounds is firm, hard flesh and mus
Gle.
No sooner does the hook penetrate
his tough mouth than there is action at
his end of the line. The difference in
strenuousness of fish is never more ac-
curately demonstrated than when a
kingfish is hooked on weakfish grounds.
One or two lunges and the weakfish is
towed to the landing net; but after five
minutes play the kingfish still retains
the vigor and muscle which he exhib-
tied when he first took the hook.
The kingfish is always found on a
sandy bottom. Sometimes he resent les
the fluke in his secretive habits. He
will lie in the loose sand at the point of
a bar in tide way, completely sub
merged in the sand except his eyes.
which are continually on the alert for
the food brought along by the tide.
Sometimes the kingfish chooses the
breakers for a feeding ground. and they
are frequently caught from the Coney
| Island and Rockaway piers.
BLACK bass tackle is eminently suit
ed TO them, but the hook should be a
small Sproat bend and the line should
be linen, as silk rots very quickly in salt
water. The favorite bait for kingfsh
Is shedder crab or shrimp. Indeed,
shrimp is a universal salt water bait.
Some fishermen make the mistake of
putting dozen shrimp on hook, max
Ing the hook look like pin wheel. The
most successful saltwater fisherman of
my acquaintance uses only two shrimp.
He hooks these through the tail
of course, SO small bait as a shrimp
does not conceal the hook The old no.
ton of absolutely concealing the hook
has been long done away with by expert
anglers. The main point is to present
your bait In the most natural form to
your prospective victims. Hooking a
shrimp through the tail gives the little
fellow chance to assume natural ap-
pearance in the water, while hooking
| him through the body destroys all his
chances for movement
The kingfish seems to be a fellow who
Goes not require companionship. He
does not herd with his fellows. as do the
blue and weakfsh. and it Is seldom that
the angler fills his basket with kingfish
alone. Still, they all have liking for
sandy bottoms and the surf. and where
one is caught there are sure to be sew
eral in the vicinity.
AS a food fish the king is universally
conceded to be delicacy."

L. h. Reeves, a Justice OF the Peace at tLat
place, has written letter recommending
Dodd' Kidney Pills in which he says:

mics of Earners.

Reports from the wheat harvested In
Ohio this year indicate that the ravages
OF the chinch bug have besS quite severe
and that the value of the yield will be
materially cut down. Scientists in
agricultural schools are urging the farm
ers to fight this destructive insect by the
distribution of species of fungus which
attacks and is fatal to the bug, saws the
Toledo Times
The activity of the state agricultural
departments is enlisted in developing
means OF fighting these insect pests OF
the farmer, gardener and fruit grower
When the country is less thickly settled
and wild birds and animals more numer-
Gus, the question of insect pests is not
so serious as it now is It is a common
thing at the present time to see whole
orchards blighted and sometimes de-
stroyed by some new foe which COM
neree and travel have imported. or by
an old enemy which civilizations tam
pering with the balance of nature has
set at liberty.
Few OF these plaques which devour
and destroy the work of the husbandmen
are invulnerabe. Our agricultural
schools and colleges and experiment ST.
tons are studying and investigating
these pests. and there are few whose
rayages they cannot arrest. The farmer
is taught by the practical work of these
schools how best to plant, and where and
when. Some ground, it is learned. is
liable to one plague. and a change of
crop is advisable; other soils require diff
ferent special treatment to prevent
these attacks. Various washes, sprays,
powders or fumigations are needed to
SAFE the plants from their insect foes.

NOTES ON THE
STOCK MARKET
Status of the Trade Given By
the DrOver-.-StOck-
man

Fat cattle were slow, but about
steady in most cases. Cows. fairly ac-
tive and steady early, but less active
later in the day. Stockers and feeders
unchanged. Hogs open sc higher, but
close with some of the advance lost.
Sheep active and steady to strong.
Beef steers-There was a liberal
s%prinkling of corn fed steers in to-
days receipts, but the offerings con-
sisted very largely of common to med
ium kinds, there being a scarcity of
really good cattle. The market was a
little slow to open and buyers did a
good deal of looking around before
they got down to business. When the
market did open it was at prices hat
were not materially different from
those which prevailed on yesterdays
market.
Stockers and feeders.-There was
a fair run of stockers and feeders this
morning and at the same time a very
fair demand. Spectators all seemed to
want a few and the result was a fairly
active market at steady prices. The
early arrivals for the most part chang
ed hands in good season. Choice to
extra feeders are quoted at $4.OO@4.2O;
good to choice, $3.7O@4.0O; fair to
good stock steers, $3.40@3.S0; fair
stockers, s3.2O@3.50, and poor to fair
grades, $2.5O@3.25; stock heifers, $500
OATS; stock steers calves $3.50Q4.75.
Hogs-The supply here was of fair
proportion as compared with the re-
ceipts lately, but were hardly up to
the number expected. Chicago receipts
we're also considerably below esti-
mates, while the provision trade was
also in fair shape. With foregoing
conditions in sellers favor the market
was in fair shape from the opening.
~Sheep-The market this morning
ruled active and firm on all desirable
mutton grades. In the case of some
ordinary grades sellers could hardly
figure yesterdays prices, but, as a
rule, both buyers and sellers were
quoting prices firm on suitable offer
ings.
nothing extra, as a whole, and there
were no really choice fat sheep receiv-
ed. A few fairish western lambs, fed.
fetched $5.75, a good, strong price,
considering the quality, and other
grades sold equally well. The market
was active from the start and a clear
ance was effected early in the day.

tons: Good to choice yearlings, $3.50
