"CUssIN' TIE CLIMATE"
Bu. He Didn't Try the Lower Rio
Grande Country.

An esteemed subscriber of The
Herald at Spirit Lake, iowa. sends
the poem "Cussin the Climate" pub
Iished below. with the comment He
didn't try the Lower Rio Grande
country" The poem is quite apropos
for the benefit of those who never
have found-and probably never will
fnd-the climate to suit them. We
have a few of them even in this fav-
ored cline. The poem follows:
"Cussin' the Climate"
O'd Sid Smith was the bIessedest one
For cussin' the climate;
Feared that his only idea of fun
Was cussin' the climate
No matter where old Sid would go.
Whether 'twould rain or whether
twould snow,
Shinin' or stormin', m or blow,
He was cussin' the climate.
Lived in Nizzoury for quite a spell,
A-cussin' the climate;
Said it was hotter than Won't
tell!
Then, cussin' the climate.
Sid moved down into Arkansaw,
Where he continued to work his jaw,
Seemed obeyin' a sort O. law
In eussin' the climate.
Then old Sid, be moseyed east,
Still cussin the climate;
Frother at the mouth like a ragin'
beast
A cussin the climate;
Each ore goin' ag'in his grain,
Old sid's mission was always plain
Just cussin' the climate.
After a while he went out West,
Still cussin' the climate,
Swearin' that somewheres else was
best
So. cussin' the climate,
Clean from Oregon down the coast.
Finally sid give up the ghost.
Now he's gone where the grumblers
roast
Still cussin' the climate!

A TERROR IN THE TALL GRASS.
Mosquito Worse Than Indians That
Prosecuted Our Puritan Ancestors.

Discontinued settlers at Plymouth
in the year 1923 wrote home divers
complaints of the country and of their
companions These were submitted
to the authorities of the colony for
reply, and Governor William Brad
ford in his History of Plymouth
Plantation. thus summarizes the
twelfth objection and the answer
thereto:
~ OBJ: The people are much anoy-
ed with muskeetos.
'Ans@They are too delicate and
unite to begine new plantations and
colonies, and canot enduer the biting
of a muskeeto; We would wish such
to keepe at home till at least they be
muskeeto proofe. Yet this place is as
free as any and experience teacheth
that We more We land is tild, and ye
woods cut downe, the fewer there
will be, and in the end scarse any at
ALL"
The mosquito was one of the great
est terrors of the adventures who
laid the foundation of the United
States. His Spanish name proves how
widely he was distributed, his first
victims being the Castilian invaders
of South America. William Bradford
and heroes of his type may have been /
able to treat this pest as a small mat
ter, but their successors less Injured
to hardship have walled long and bit
terly over the attack OF a wretched
little insect.
The Indians could be decimated (
by the diseases of civilization or ex-
terminated with muskets, or driven
westward and rounded up on reserva- /
tions, and finally reduced to such
state of helplessness that Commits
siOner Leupp now stationing bar
bers on the reservations to trim their
sable locks. But for nearly three cen
turtles the mosquito remained an I'M
tanned and ineradicable terror. At
last science has begun tot deal with
him, and there are faint hopes that
he may be relegated to the happy
hunting grounds, whittier, the other
scourge of the continentfi the red
men, have for the most part gone.
The State entomologist of New Jer-
sey believes that permanent results,
are beng attained, although .
the cities near New York grow weary
IN well-doing and relax their vigil
ance in the matter of drainage. He is n
working south along the coast, and I
expects to reach Toms River this
year and Atlantic City next year. Sta
ten Island claims to be comparatively
free from the terror that fieth by
night and is worse than the pestil-
ence that walketh at MONDAY Civ
ilization has some merits.-Phila-

These Annual Crop scares.

The Utica Observer of recent date
says: I'VE are accustomed to the
annual scare about the failure OF the
Jersey peach crop and the tales of
devastation in the apple orchards in
western New York. These stories are
all right, and we accept them with
a half-formed notion that they may
be true, Frosts have been known
to nip and worms to blight the or
ehards, and so We accept these tales
with only a few misgivings that they
are spread abroad for commercial
purposes. But there is a limit to
eredulity. and we think it has been
reached in a story that comes to US
from Mount Holly, n. J. The New
Jersey cranberry crop has been
burned. Think oft. All those acres
of bog and swamp one vast roaring
cranberry stew. And now what are
we going to do when Thanksgiving
Day comes around? Probably we
will find conditions in regard to the
cranberry supply just as we ordinar-
lily find them in relation to the peach
crop. That no matter how serious
the damage is thought to have been,
the supply is about as large as US
ual and the quality about the same
