that more than 9,0O0,0 900 black

about doubled in numbers since
Mr.. Lincoln signed the emancipa-

the dark skinned inhabitants of
our insular possessions, $500, 900
colored people are living under our
flag. The World writer says
"Our negro population owns more
property than is generally suppos-
ed. Nearly 4 per cent of the total
assessable property of Virgins
belongs 10 them. In Georgia alone

BUGS TO SAVE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
A YEAR.
A YEAR.

ing on just now at the department
of agriculture in Washington
Hon. James Wilson, Secretary
was never seen before in the history
of the world. The insects chosen
for propagation-a dozen of them,
which were imported alive from
China more than a year ago-were
so precious that a single specimen
could not have been bought for
800. This will be better under
stood when it is explained that
this batch of bugs, with their pro-
geny, bid fair to rid the United
States of a pest which at the
present time is causing a loss of
Sic, 1000, 900 a year.
The pest is the San Jose scale
originally brought from China or
Hawaii to Calfornia-which has
spread over large part of the
fruit-growing regions of the United
States and threatens to wipe out
horticultural industry. Once it
gets a foothold in an orchard, it
sweeps through the latter as de-
structively as fire, leaving only
dead trees in it's path. Its rate of
propagation is something fabulous,
under favorable conditions, and the
twigs and branches it attacks are
quickly covered with a sort of gray
scurf consisting of the waxy excre-
tons of an incalculable multitude
of microscopic insects.
By good luck, Mr.. M~arlatt, one
of our Uncle Sans most skilled
entomologists, happened to be
travelling in northern China about
eighteen months back and found
there this very plague. But the
mischief, though obvious enough,
was not specially destructive be-
cause of a peculiar insect much re.
sembling a miniature hedgehog
when viewed under a magnifying
glass, which preyed upon the pest,
gobbling the scaly things whole
sale. 1t seemed evident that this
was the enemy provided by nature
for keeping down the scale insect,
and Mr.. Marlatt promptly proceed
ed to capture a few hundred
specimens, which he brought to
this country in tin boxes.
Nearly all of them died on the
way, but on reaching Washington
the dozen hardy ones that survived
were put into a wire net cage out
doors, being placed upon a pear
tree that was thoroughly infested
with the scale insects. Without q
minutes delay, the Chinese bugs
went to work preying upon the
scale insects, and, what was more
important, they proceeded to
multiply their own kind rapidly.
Pretty soon a second cage contain
ing another fruit tree had to be
built to receive the overflow and
to-day there are more than a dozen
similar cages.
Many thousands of the hedgehog
bugs thus artificially bred are now
available, and during the coming
summer and in subsequent years
the department of agriculture will
distribute them among fruit grow.
ers, who will place them on the
trees in their orchards. They are
expected to multiply at a great rate
and to wipe out the scale insects by
wholesale, eventually reducing the
number of the latter to a poln'
where they will be practically harm
less and thus doing away with the
greatest danger that has evel
