WASP IS FRIEND OF MINERS

The miners of Colorado, who have

know what a pest the small brown
wood-spider proves to be- They throw
their webs over your best clothes,
cooking utensils and in every corner,
where you can get them In your eyes
and mouth. Not only that, but they
will drop into the frying pan, water
bucket, or upon the table where you
are eating But nature furnished a
remedy and friend when she gave
the spider hawk. The name is given
by miners to small, steel-blne wasp,
almost three-fourths Of an inch in
length. He can easily be recognized,
by the quick. nervous strokes of his
wings. They build a nest up among
the rafters Of your cabin, Of wood
pulp or furze, from the outer coating
Of old, dead trees. Then they are
ready for business. Every few min
utes you can see your hawk climb up
the rafters with spider. sometimes
carrying one to four or five times it's
own weight Sometimes they get a
spider so heavy that they will fall
many times before they succeed in
reaching their nest. They never give
up, but keep on trying until they sue
ceed. When the spider is safely
placed in the nest, the female hawk
deposits her egg in the dead body.
The hawks live only in pairs. as far
as observation goes. They become
rather tame. and seem to be obliged
TO you for building the spider-trap for
their benefit.
