WHITE ANTS USEFUL.

A white ants nest Is about the last
thing In the world one would expect
TO be OF practical service to mankind.
yet In western Australia white ants
and their nests are put TO a variety OF
economic uses
In the FIRST place, the aborigInes
sometimes eat the ants. and there are
even O few white residents who have
tasted them for the sake OF experience.
and say they are not bad But It Is
not a habit with the aborigines to eat
the Insects; they prefer TO devour the
mold out Of which the ants build thar
nests.
Capital ovens are frequently impro-
vlsed by the Australian prospector out

a solid floor almost like cement. for
the settlers huts and In the township
OF Derby IN western Australia, they
have been turned TO profitable use BY

empty car movement last week being the
largest in any week of months past. The
dullness in freight business is beginning TO

light traffic is but temporary, and it is
thought business will soon readjust itself,
but it is not expected that heavy ton
mage will be moved during the next few
months last year at the corresponding
period. A railway official who has travelled
a good deal of late said he had found de-
preston in business wherever he travelled.
and he attributed this to the fact that
people are continually waiting agricultural

year for electing a President and it is not
unusual for freight business to suffer more
