PLAY ON APES FEAR
HOW SHREWD KEEPERS MANAGE
 UNRULY ANIMAL.
cowardice and Curiosity, It's Two Weak Points, Are Utilized When Force and Persuasion Alike
 Have No Effect.

The superintendent of a western geological institution has taught his employees to manage animals by indi- rect methods, akin to those by which nervous children are controlled by wise parents. A rhinoceros had an ab- scess in its face. The question was: Did it come from a bad tooth, or did it only need lancing? The superin- tendent simply said to the keeper: Give him a new birch broom" The rhinoceros at once ate it, grinding up the bits with great gusto. "Ah! You see his teeth are all right" said the superintendent, and the next day the abscess was lanced with sharp bill hook.
 The diagnosis was as ingenious as his method of managing Billy, re fractory chimpanzee. The big ape needed exercise. This he obtained by being allowed the run of the large monkey house, instead of remaining in side room, before the visitors came. As he knew he would be caught ment at this hour, the ape used to climb to the top of the other monkeys cages and refuse to come down.
 As he could not be tempted with food, the superintendent appealed to his mind by working on what he had noted to be his weak points, curiosity and cowardice.
 The superintendent went to the keeper and, touching him gently on the shoulder, directed his attention in a mysterious manner to the dark pas sage underneath the gas pipe that traverses the house, pretending to point out some horrible unknown crea- ture, using an energetic manner, but saying nothing except words to this effect: Look outi There he Isl There he isl" At the same timo the two men would peer into the dark place under the gas pipe.
 The monkey. on such occasions. would come down to see what the sub- ject of fear and interest was, and just then the superintendent and the keeper in unison would shout: He's coming out! He's coming out.s' and would rush away in the direction of Billy's cage. The monkey would dash for the same place of safety, which happened to be the door of his own house, and sometimes enter it before them.
 The monkey has never learned the deception; but Is taken in by it whenever the time comes to finish his mornings airing.-The Sunday Maga- zine.

the result must have seemed mIracu- lous. Within two years from the time when the first ladybird began to break fast on scale eggs. the victory was completely won. It was more than a victory; 1t was a slaughter. Since then the white scale, while it Is not wholly eliminated and never will be. has ceased to be an element of peril to the citrus orchards of California.
 Occasionally at practically no cost. science wins victory. The experts by turning their glass upon the clover seed midge found that 1t produced two generations coincident with the clover crop. Generation number one was never very damaging. But gen. eration number two often destroyed the whole second crop. This being as certained, the farmers were instructed to cut the first crop ten days earlier. Thus the adult midges were laid away with the crop before any but the most forehanded had laid their eggs. By this procedure the second growth of clover escaped attack.
 From an economic viewpoint much of the most important work of para situation Is yet to be done. The dis covery of a parasitic destroyer of the OK warble, for example, would mean saving of $S,O00,000 yearly in the value of cattle which come to the Chicako stockyards alone. Somewhere perhaps, a form of insect Is missing its opportunities, which might be em- ployed in ridding American grain fields of the chinch bug, thereby say ing loss of as high as $60,000,000 in bad years. There Is a crying need of successful parasitic checks upon the Mediterranean four moth. the army worm, the striped cucumber beetles, the house-breaking moth, which cor rupts our stored clothing. and the peach tree borer, to name only few familiar species with expensive appe- tites. But the greatest potential dis covery Is that of the parasitic bene- factor which should perform upon the American house fly or the mosquito the miracle of exorcism which St. Pat rick wrought on the snakes of Erin. In round numbers $30O,000. .O00 would not be an overestimate of the conse- quent saving in human life and earn ing power, plus the increased value of real estate.

Sand For Ducks.

Some people have notion that ducks and geese do not need grit be- cause they are not seen picking up large particles of stone. They do not need as large a size of grit as hens do, for they get sand when pudding in the bottom of the creek and streams where they forage for weeds and fish. Ducklings should be pro vided with plenty of sand, which takes the place of grit. So thoroughly do some duck raisers believe in grit that they mix sand in the feed that they give their young ducts.

Representative J. Harry Covington of Maryland represents that section of the Terrapin state known as the Eastern Shore. The Eastern Shore is famed for producing not only the highest living in all America, but it numbers among its population many of the highest flyers.
 'The most notable instance of gour- mandizing which our section has pro- duced," said MT. Covington to a group of newspaper friends, "is old Joe Nicholson of Talbott county. One of Joe's friends asked him if he liked turkey.
 "'Sure like turkey responded Old Joe. But turkey is an inconvenient sort of a bird. It's leetle too much fer one and not enough fer two.'"
