TO INVESTIGATE THE HORSE FLY.
Prof. Hines to Have a Try at Pest
ut Cameron, La,

A special from Shreveport to the
New Orleans Picayune of Tuesday
says:
J. S. Hines, Professor ofEntouology
in the State University of Ohio, ar
rived in Shreveport to-day, en- route
to the Gulf Biologic station at Gamer
on La, in connection with which he
will make an investigation of the
horse Fly, which is causing trouble to
cattle and annoyance to the people of
the Gulf parishes of the State. lie
held conference with State En-
tomologist Newell, and will leave for
Cameron tomorrow. The horse flies
have become SO pugnacious this year
that it was deemed advisable by the
Biologic Station to secure the aid OF
an expert in making an investigation,
with view OF fading o remedy for
the evil, which is fast iniuring the
stock and cattle industry of the State.
Prof. Hines has made close study of
the horse fly for several years in
different parts of the country, and
knows more about this group of
insects than anyone in, the United
States. He expects to be at Cameron
and in the Gulf parishes for several
weeks.
