plague Of White Ants.

A new pest in the form Of white ants
has appeared at Smith Center and is
causing much concern among tree
growers and property owners. The
ants are white and about the size Of
the common black ones. They already
have killed hundreds Of fruit and for
est trees and done considerable dam
age to floors and window frames in
buildings. They work on trees just
beneath the surface of the ground, and
In many cases have completely girdled
tree in one day. In buildings their
work is not detected until they have
the floor honeycombed with holes and
1t is then too late to eradicate them.
A piano in the $4,000 Congregational
church in this city was moved the 9th
er day and the floor underneath found
nearly destroyed. The agricultural COL
lege has been asked to suggest a
poison that will put stop to the work
Of destruction. -

A Cynical Synonym.

Poor Myra Kelley" said maya

New York, was almost as distressed
as Mr.. Carnegie at the spirit Of graft
aud crookedness rampant among us.
'Ihe young writer, at dinner Of
magazine contributors, said that we
worshiped wealth-that was our trou-
BILE. Then she crystallized her mean
ing in an anecdote.
"She said that one man asked an
other:
What position does Blank hold in
the community?
"a very honorable position, was
the reply.

"'Wealth and honor said the other,

Early University Records.

Relics of the early days of the Uni.
versity of Kansas have been received
at the library Of that institution. They
consist of the class room and special
lecture notes of John Fraser, the sec.
ond chancellor Of the university and
were presented by General Fraser's
widow, who now lives in Madison
Wis. The class room notes, bound in
four volumes, show that Gen. Fraser
was professor of political science, in
ternational law, sociology, psychology
logic biology, literature, algebra and
poetry. When Gen. Fraser became
chancellor in 1868 the enrollmen wa;
122, with five members in the faculty
At his retirement in 1874 the enroll
ment had increased to 272 and the
faculty list contained ten names.

Good Work Proceeds Slowly.

At the present rate of increase near
ly forty-five years must elapse before
sufficient hospital accommodations to
provide for all the INDECENT consump-
tives in the United States will be pro-
vided, declares the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis. Although. over 1000
beds in hospitals, sanatoria, camps
and wards for tuberculous patients
were established last year, there are
fully 100000 INDECENT consumptives
who ought to be placed in such institu-
tions and total of only 22,72O beds in
the entire country. On May l, 1909,
there were 1924 beds for consump
tives and 294 institutions. The annual
report of the national association
shows an increase Of SO institutions
and $500 beds.

Hog Shortage Discovered.

The prevailing high price of hogs
easily is accounted for If the same
shortage exists elsewhere as in Smith
county. The returns of the deputy
assessors have just been compiled and
they show that there were but 42,523
hogs in the county on March l, a de-
crease of 1903 in IL months. Despite
a loss of 10000 by cholera during 1908,
the assessors found 1885 head in the
county in 1909. Many Of the farmers
claim there is no money in hogs when
they can haul their corn from the
fields direct to market and get so cents
a bushel for It.

Need of Beds for consumptlyes.

The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
says that in seven states, Alabama,
Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oklahoma,
Wyoming and Utah, with a combined
population of over 100000, not one
bed for consumptives has been pro-
vided. In nine states and territories,
Alaska, Delaware, Florida, Kansas,
Mississippi, South Carolina, South Da-
kota, Vermont and West Virginia, the
number of beds for consumptitves in
each case is less than fifty, while the
combined population Of these states is
over 100000. On the basis of 400
deaths to a million Of population,
which is approximately the present
rate in the United States, there would
be nearly 5000 deaths annually from
tuberculosis in these IA states, with at
least 10000 cases of this disease all
the time, and less than 500 beds to
care for them.

The Business Instinct.

An English farmer, taking his little
son with him, was going to the
polling station to give his vote. On
