PLAGUE OF FIELD MICE
Peat Thrivins In IrFIEated RsgiOns Of
the West and Menace
Reclamation Dams.

During the last year in the Humboldt
valley, in the state Of Nevada, there has
been a destructive plague OF field mice,
causing enormous damage TO the alfalfa
crop and ali other OF the farm products
OF that fertile valley. Notwithstanding
the destruction wrought among them by
their natural enemies. owls and hawks,
these field mice are increasing in such
numbers that not only the region In which
they now are Is almost completely de-
wasted out. what is OF far greater import
ance. they are a menace TO the Truokee-
Carson irrigation system. southwest OF the
HUMBOLDT country,
For the first time In American history
there IL an invasion of field mice like
those thai have occurred in many OF tbs
Europeans countries. where vast damage
resulted. Nevada IL face to face with a
problem the entire country will watch with
interest. and It's solution win probably be
owing TO the biological survey Of the De-
partment OF Agriculture. Already the prac
tical scientists OF the survey have studied
thssactual conditions on the spot and have
evolved a plan for the Wholesale destrue-
tlon Of the mice.
Meadow mice are among the most prolific

Some Of the mice were inoculated with
an infectious disease, which they COM
munieated to their fellows. This methods,
however was found inadequate to the de-
mands OF the situation.

Fortunately, there are in that country a
number OF natural foes TO the mice, such

coyotes They are aiding in the work OF

BAGDAD'S CALIPH HAS IMITAToR
MHryIand's Governor Visits state In

His Coming.

Governor Austin L. CTothers OF Maryland
has recently taken for his model in state
craft Haroun Al Raschid, that famous ca
hph Of Bagdad who wandered out into the
streets Of his capital in disguise TO discover
whether there were any malefactors, molly
eoddles or other undesirable citizens therein
and punish them according to their deserts.
or 70 reward those Of his subjects who were
worthy OF reward. Mr.. Crothers has not
gone so far in his imitation OF Caliph
Haroun as TO disguise himself and 20 forth
In search of adventure. but he has insti-
tuted a series OF personally conducted gum
shoe expeditions which, In all other re-
spects, measure up TO the standard OF the
oriental potentate whose exploits are re.
lated in those veTaclous chronicles, the
Arabian Nights" tales.
From time tmmemoriai II has been the
practice Of state legislatures in Maryland
TO vote large sums OF money toward the
support OF various schools, hospitals and
charitable institutions In the state, and one
OF the duties OF the chief executive has
been TO see that the institutions which re-
eeived the appropriations are worthy of re-
ceiving them and make good use Of the
money. This duty has never been classed
among the hardships OF public office. II
Is a much more pleasant duty than that OF
satisfying a hungry horde OF office-seskers
and many other duties appertainins TO the
office.
