ANT PECUllARITIES.
Each Species Has Distinct Odor
DiscernibIe by other Ants

Each ant species appears 10 have Its
distinctive odor, disCernible by other
ants. Within each species there are
also differences of odor dependent on
the age of the colony and the age OF
the queen from whose egg its inmates
are produced. The ants organs of
smell are its antcnnae. and the anten-
noses, each OF which has special task.
One nose totlS the ant whether Il is in
its own nest ot that of an enemy. An
other nose discriminatcS between odors
OF ants q the same species, but OF diff
fercnt colonies. The third serves the
purpose Of discerning the scent laid
down by the ants own feet, so that II
may rctracc its steps along It's own
path. Another rose smells the ant
larvae and pupuo, and the Gfth nose
detects the presence ef an enemy
Thus If an ant be lcrt with orhy the
-four NOSES II will live pencednly with
allen autS. but while ii has its nth
nose il VIA fight the aiicu 10 the death

subtumilieS. IHit I'm three days aftrr

Onor is established, and they refuse to
affiliate with ants whose OtloC is NOT

The South American ant which was
to eat up all the cotton ball weevils in
Texas is not altogether fulfilling ex-
pectations. 1t seems it will not dig
80 the weevil, but kills it only as an
M NJ dental diversion while on its way
=; or the nectar of the cotton blossom.
From all accounts there is a COM
mercial and industrial depression in
England. 1t is said that the anti
quated methods practised in that
country hurt more than anything else.
America forges ahead because she is
up-to-date.
Prof. Howard, of the University of
Chicago, has given institution a lib
rary of 1.700 volumes on Matrimonial
Institutions. These books relate to
the subject of marriage, divorce, and
the family, and the collection is the
largest of its kind in the world. And
there is no place in the world, probably,
where such library is needed, more
than in Chicago.
Prof. Wiley of the department OF
Agriculture has just issued very in
teresting bulletin on the "Useful Pro
perties of Clays." It seems the United
States imports nearly two hundred
thousand tons of clays each year, be.
tween one seventh and one eighth Oi
the amount produced in America
There is no reason why the rich clay
deposits of this country should not be
developed to point where there will
be ho further need of importing clays
Many American newspapers are pub
fishing table giving the expense o.
carrying on the governments of tn,
different nations of the world, ant
showing that the cost of the United
States government is less than that O
any other nation, being about one
third that of Great Britain. Thi
shows what figures can do. The tabl
does not at all take account of the fac
that three-quarters of the expense o
or government is borne by states
cities, counties and towns, instead o
being charged up to a central ex
chequer as in the case of England
France, Germany, &c.
