Injury from Mosquitoes.

New Jersey has many places ideal
In situation and accessibility, and n
such place developed rapidly to a GER
tain point and there it stood, halted
by the mosquitoes that bred in the
surrounding martth lands. Country
club, golf, tennia and other attrac-
tons ceased to attract when attention
was necessarily focused on the biting
or singing pests that intruded every
where. and the tendency was to sell
out. But the owners were not ready
to quit without a fight, and an i'm
provement society was formed which
consulted with my office and followed
my advice. In one year the III OF
the breeding area was drained, mos
quitoes have since been absent al
most entirely; one gentleman, not a
large owner, either, told me his prop
erty had increased $4,000 in value.
and new settlers began to come In.
This year one of the worst breeding
areas of the olden day was used as
a camping gorund, and 100 new resi-
dences are planned for next year

1t has been declared by a lecturer
to the Mothers club of New York city
that the official eagle of this country,
els shown in authorized designs, is
female. The proof offered is the white
tufts of feathers ON head and breast,
and the fact that the female eagle is
larger and stronger than the male.
Nevertheless, most persons think of
the metaphorical bird as a male. Or
nithologists say that the conventional
design does not indicate the sex, and
the law is plain. In the description of
the seal accepted by the continental
congress, June 20, 1882, the pronoun
his" is used three times with refer
ence to the bird.
