il it were substantially true why this

cation and the dividends show the
facts. A combination of manufactur-

per cent on its investment, assuming

The CivIIizIng Army of Ants.

Do not speak disrespectfully of Qua
temala. True it is one of those little
Spanish American republics with a
heavy debt, a small army and no navy:
but it has ants that are said to be more
terrible than an army with banners
when it comes TO fighting injurious in
sects that cause large loss TO farmers
An entOmologist in the service of the
government has returned to Washing
ton from that country with 10 colonies
of ants divided into two species. One
of these species of ants is the mortal
enemy of the potato bug. and works
destruction to this pestiferOus bug
whenever it is turned loose. The high
est object in life Of the other ant is to
exterminate the cotton boil weevil.
There can be no sectional jealousy
caused by the introduction of these
ants, as one species will prey upon the
enemy of the Michigan and Wisconsin
potato raiser while the other viii look
after the interests of the southern cot
ton planter. This country ought TO
give the ants from Guatemala cor
dial reception.
