situation:

An irrigation expert says a dam

all the underiow and store enough
water to irrigate all the valley for 200

night, with a stif black tail standing
up defantly in the air, and a ghostly
look in it's sightless eyes. This bane-
full glare is produced by a four-volt
electric battery slowed away in that

The general principle of construc-

is based upon powerful clockwork. re-

animal is moved. The clock works a
pair of bellows, with two loud screech-
ing reeds, at the same time forming
contact to light the lamps in the eyes
and forcing outwards a dozen long
needle points, which come up through
the skin Of the back. The tail also
acts as a trigger and releases a ham
mer formed Of the lower jaw OF the
cat, which explOdes two percussion
caps in the mouth.
One night recently an experiment
was made. The clockwork was wound
up and the beast placed in the back
garden. In due curse of time a fero-

sat around to see the fun.
Without the slightest ~provocation he
flew at the automatic cat, removed a
lump of loose hair from his back. and

first round, but it was only the signal
for the tin tom cat to get into
action.
The tail exploded the percussion cans
in that cats mouth with a sound re-
sembling that of a small cannon. the
electric eyes blazed out like search
lights, while heart-rending shrieRg
rent the air from the bellows inside,
and the needle points got their busl-

Within a few seconds the garden
was clear and pale-faced pussies were

USEFUL CHINESE BUGS.
They Feed ON the San O8e Scale and
Are Expected to Save Millions
for Fruit Growers.

More bugs are being Matched daily
at the department Of agriculture at
Washington than we're yer before
stimulated by human enterprise.
The insects chosen for propagation
Ia dozen Of them, which were i'm
ported alive from China more than d
year ago-were so precious that a sin.
gle specimen could not be bought fol
$1OO.
This will be better understood when
it is explained that this batch Of bug
with their progeny bid fair to rio
the United States Of a pest which at
the present time is causing a loss of
$40, 100000 a year.
The pest is the San Jose scale
originally brought from China OF
Hawaii TO- California, which has
spread over a large portion of the
f~ruit-growing regions Of the United
States, and threatens to wipe out the
horticultural industry.
Once it gets a foothoId in an or
chard it sweeps through the latter as
destructively as fire. Its rate Of prop.
agation is something fabulous, under
favorable conditions, and the twigs
and branches it attacks are quickly
covered with a sortof gray scurf con-
sisting Of the waxy -execretions o. an
incaIculable multitude Of microscopic
insects.
BY good luck Mr.. Marlatt, n Of Un-
Gle Sans most skilled entomologists,
happened to be travelling in northern
China about is months back and found
there this very plague. But the mis-
chief, though obvious enough, was not
specially destructive because Of a pecu-
liar insect much resembling a minia-
ture hedgehog.
It seemed evident that this was the
enemy provided by nature for keeping
down the scale insect, and Mr.. Marlatt
promptly proceeded 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 n e that survived were put
into a wire net cage outdoors, being
placed upon the branches Of a pear
tree that was thoroughly infested with
the scale insects. Without a minutes
delay the Chinese bugs went to work
preyiug upon the scale insects, and
what was more important, they pro

Pretty o a second cage containing
another fruit had to be built to re.
