 W. E Britton of Now Haven, Con. necticut state entomologist, was in StoningtOn the other day and with As sistant George H. Hollister, took a look over the district, which in the past has been infested with pvpsy moth. During the tour of the men Saturday, one caterpillar, about one half an inch long, was found on a tree in Bradley street, Stonington bor- ough. A gang of twelve men are now on the work and this week will see n all twenty men giving their attention to the matter. pr Britton has issued a circular which will be out soon and he has this to say of the work: So far the gypsy moth has not been found anywhere in the state except at Ston- ingtoD, where less than one square mile af territory is infested. If this pest had not been discovered and SUD- pressed at once, it would surely have spread to adjacent territory, aided by passing vehicles, and when numerous would have devoured nearly all kinds of vegetation and ravaged hundreds of | acres of woodland, as has been the case in M Massachusetts. Thus, not only | was; the infested area threatened with destruction, but the whole state was | endangered. The suppression work | was prosecuted vigorously during | 1906, was the pest held in subjection PRESENT AND FUTURE WORK AT sToN- INGTON.
 There is good chance of entirely l <l; <l,:.
 ton, and this we shall strive to do. | Until it is apparent that this ha $ been accomplished, the work must be kept up. The pest is now in the cata- pillar stage, and though we believe that only few specimens are left, we shall try to capture every one of the Burlap bands will be placed on all trees | h the infested area, and visited each day for time during June and July to gather the caterpilars. The bands will then be removed
 Many neglected trees have been pruned, cavities in them filled and con- siderable brush has been cut and burn ed More such work will be done wher I ever necessary for the extermination oi he gypsy moth.
 Some property owners object to hay ing bands put upon the trees or hay ing the men on their premises to look at the bands. No doubt this is an incon venience to many residents and prop erty owners, but it is absolutely neces sary for the prosecution of the work and is q safeguard to the vegetation o not only this region but of the whole slate. M eu employed in this work ar, | warned against any unnecessary de lStruction or injury of property, anC are expected to be courteous to all. Ii i> earnestly requested that resident and property owners cooperate with u ny bearing these temporary inconven fences as patiently as possible, ano that they allow nothing to hinder tn, suppression work. We are always ready to give information about the gyps,
 moth or other insects, and to give ex pert advice regarding trees. George Fl Hollister is at present. the local super entendcnt, and on request will consult with anyone on these matters.

Minneapolis Club to Stop Men Annoy
ing Women on Streets.
One hundred young men in Mime
apolis, led by Rev. G. L. Morrill,, have
organized themselves into a club to
slug Washers, says a Minneapolis dis
patch to the Cincinnati Enquirer. The
minister and mis- cohorts propose to
drive Washers from the streets Of the
Mill City.
Mayhap some masher will turn the
tables and trim" the crusader who
seeks to administer the fistic rebuke.
but if the tables should be thus turned
two or more of the fistic band will lay
for the victorious masher, and If he is
caught a second time insulting girls
he'll get a first class whipping if it
takes half dozen crusaders to do it.
DR.. Morrill, organized the "sluggers"
at q service at the Auditorium where
he berated the practice Of young fell
lows annoying women on the streets
He declared he intended using his fists
on such offenders, and in response to
an appeal for others to aid him in the
crusade hundred sturdy members Of
the congregation held up their hands
to signify that they will punch the
stuffin'" out of any masher caught at
large.

Weigh Guests at Week Ends.

AT fashionable week end parties it is
the custom now to weigh the guests on
their arrival and on their departure.
says the Cincinnati Enquirer There
should be gain of several pounds
Some hosts judge their cooks skill by
the result of these weight tests. If
the guests lose Oh week end visit the
cook is plainly worthless. If they gain
a pound or SO, the man must have
pleased with his connections. If their
average gain is three or four pounds,
then the cook is a treasure and may
be promised an advance in 1908. The
weighing custom arose at Sandring-
ham, where the king of England su-
perintends personally the weighing Of
all guests. The king boasts that he
has put as much as nine pounds on a
man in a week end visit of two days.
