The government crop report shows that
the condition Of cotton has fallen be

that the total yield will amount TO less

through this condition. The Southern
planter can make good partially the loss
in the size Of the crop through an in

The game was holly contested through

A Tragedy Of Instinct.

The prOcessiOnaries are rather strange
caterpillars. A single string Of them
five or six yards long has just climbed
down from my parasol pines and is at
this moment Unfolding itself in the
walls Of my garden, carpeting the
ground traversed with transparent silk,
according to the custom of the race.
To say nothing of the meteorological
apparatus of unparalleled delicacy
which they carry on their spine, these
caterpillars, as everybody knows, have
this remarkable quality-that they
travel only in troop, one after the
other, like the blind of Breughel or
those in the parable, each Of them OBJ
stinately, indissolubly following her
leader; so much so that our author
having one morning disposed the file
on the edge Of large stone vase, thus
closing the circuit, for seven whole

WEAKNESS. the unhappy troop on its
tragic round without rest, respite or
mercy, pursued the pitiless circle I'm.

Forest Fires Cost Big Money

Forester Greeley, of Misscula, in
charge of the National Forests of this
part of the west, has made estimates of
the loss through timber fires in the ter
ritory under his jurisdiction. The esti-
mates are yet in the rough, as they have
been compiled from data sent in by the
rangers of each district, and not from a
detailed examination of the crews which
are now in the field and h.ye yet much
territory to cover. In the Kaniksu Ma
tional Forest the mum Der of acres burned
over was $4,000; the timber destroyed
or killed $4,000, 900 feet, the cost of tenn
porary labor and supplies $4,000 and
the cost of the regular employees $4,000.
