OF fish and whatever else he could find

where have not entirely overlooked the stink bug, as the following is found in the International encyclopedia:
 Stink Bug-Any one of the heterop- terous insects of the family Pentatorn- idae, very many of which are protect ed from their natural enemies by a nauseous, penetrating and persistent odor, which remains with berries (and Phoenix people, over which these bugs have walked. The family is a large one, and 4,OO0 species have been described. of which 300 are found in tLo United States. They are broad, flat insects with five jointed antennae, and are usu. ally green, gray or brown. although some have a brilliant combination of black and red or yellow and black They vary strangely in habit some spe- cies being exclusively carniverous and others exclusively plant feeders, while others seem to feed indi@erently on the juices of plants or of other insects. Reference is also made to the same family under the head of Soldier Bug, which is the name of a special group of stink bugs belonging to the same family, and who are predatory in their nature and the common enemies of caterpillars. The chairman of this sub b-committee is Podisus SpinosUs, his family name of course, being Penta- tomidae.
 There is a disposition on the part of some to question the mission of such an insect on earth, but everything is good for something, if it is only to kill caterpillars. However, the stink bug has many other uses. In the first place, it teaches an observing person to control his temper, for it does no good to get mad and swear. It also does much for people who were never taught good manners in their child hood, by intuitively making them close the screen door when they go calling or into another mans office. And, finally, instead of being referred to as a pest or a nuisance, the board of trade, in it's advertising literature, should call attention to the stink bug as an avi- dence of how few pests of this kind thera are in Ari- zona, for of tho 300 species found in the United States, Arizona has only one, which leaves 299 different kinds of stink bugs to be equally di vided among the other forty-nine states and territories.
