Mosquitoes XIII Cattle.

Lake Charles, La.-Southwest Lou.
lsiana is in the grip of the mosquito
plague. Thousands of cattle have been
killed by the insects. They hover in
hordes over the fields and marsh
lands. At night they fly into towns,
making living conditions almost un-
bearable.
It is impossible in some of the towns
along the Southern Pacific railroad to
go out of doors at night. Persons eat
dinner with their ankles swathed in
protecting clothes; then they get be-
meath bars and netting, for 1t Is i'm.
possible to keep the mosquitoes out Of
residences.

made at the home and at present the
association needs the money that
would be thus received for other
branches Of work At our next meet
ing we will finally determine what
stand to take concerning holding or
releasing the property"
Mrs. Nation wishes the home re-
turned to her so that It may be sold
and the proceeds Of it's sale used in
the construction Of a home for boys
which she is building in Oklahoma.
In 1902 she bought the property,
which was the homestead Of c. N.

sas.
Mrs. Nation secured most of the
$4,000. which she originally paid for
the property, from the sale of the

sold for % cents.
After Mrs. Nation had given the
home, all the churches of the city
and many fraternal orders subscribed
money to pay for it's furnishing. The
grounds about the home, an acre in

ing itself is a spacious structure Of

the ordinance is the elimination OF the
clause requiring milEmen TO take out a
