Prof. T.. +. Hitchings of Waterville
the State entomologist. is just now
busy with the work of nursery in
spection. but the work is progressing
well, and will soon be finished. The
work takes Prof. Hitchings into all
parts of the State and while conduct
ing the business I'm hand he also keeps
, an eye out for the browE-tail moths.
On a recent trip to Bar Harbor. while
inspecting a piece of nursery land con-
tanning about Is acres, a large number
of the moths were discovered, which
would seem to indicate that unless the
inhabitants of that section get after
the winter nests. this fall. there will
be- a healthy colony of the moths there
next summer.
And speaking of the moths. the time
is not far off when TIE work of ex-
termination. which was commenced
early. last spring. will he continued,
and Commissioner Gilman of the de
partment OF agriculture. is already
making plans for the winters crusade.
1t is. of course. early, yet, and nothing
can be done in the way &C destroying
the nests until the leaves fall from the
trees i'm the late aututnn. when the WIN
ter nests which the caterpillars will
soon be making. can easily be seen.
From that time until the following
April. the people will have an oppor-
tunity of removing the winter nests.
and destroying them. AS each nest
contains from $50 to 800 OF the little
,aterpIllars, it can be easily seen what
il means to allow d single nest to
escape destruction. Commissioner Gill
| man and Prof. Hitchings are receiving
great deal of praise for the manner in
which they have handled the brown
tail moth situation in the State. and the
energetic and successful way in which
the work has been carried On. But tn ,
| work has only been commenced. and It
is only by continued vigilance and
prompt action that the pest can be kept
from gaining a foOthold in the State.

Proceedings in Kansas City,

BUT THE JOINTS STILL OPEN.

Kansas City, Kansas, Sept. H.
The hundred and fifty-odd joints here
are open as usual today in spite Of
the Attorney Generals suit TO Dust
Mayor Rose for allowing them to run,
and to 'mpeach County Attorney
Gibson on the charge Of accepting a
hve dollar bride monthly from each
joint keeper for not prosecuting him,
and to forfeit the charler of the
largest city in Kansas.
Mayor Rose views the situation
with equanimity. Personally, be favors
law enforcement, but says be has not
stopped the joints because, among
other reasons, they contribute annually
to the city ninety thousand dollars,
without which ii cannot be admin.
iStered.
In anticipation of the eventual
shutting off Of this revenue, Mayor
Rose has recently startedtax methc ds
which are designed TO give the city
sufficient revenue without taking
money from law breakers.
Mayor Rose has issued a statement
denying the above charges cate.
gorically, and intlmating that his
