afternoon of December 8, and, armed
with her favorite weapon Of attack, the
hatchet, made bee line for the bar
room which is also a part of the cafe.
Entering the room, she rushed behind the
bar, and in an instant was busy with the
array of bottles and decanters. all filled
with choice liquors to tickle the palates
of the bibulous.
The clatter Of broken glassware and
bottles brought a crowd quickly which
watched with surprise and CONSERVATION
her work of destruction. An officer ar
rived on run and seized the irate wom-
an. She struggled to be Free all the
while expressing her condemnation Of the
liquor traffic.
To the remark of the policeman who
placed her under arrest that she was de-
stroying private property. Mrs. Nation re-
piled with one of her characteristic
speeches. 1T is not private property. It's

CRAyF|SH CLIMB TREES
IN MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
Department of Agriculture De-
veIops Method to Extermi-
nate Enemy of Crops.

A method has been developed by the
Department of Agriculture that, it is be
lieved. will control the crayfish outbreak
in the south The idea of crayfish eating
the crops and climbing trees sounds
rather like an excerpt from Baron Mum
chausen. That is what has happened.
however along some of the richest bot
tom land bordering the rivers in Missis
sippi and Louisiana. There are about 5Oo
miles of river front affected, and. as the
land is very valuable. some means of
cleaning out the crayfish have to be de-
vised.
Thousands of crayfsh Holes.
The biological survey OF the Department
of Agriculture was not used to
dealing with shellfsh. having confined its
attentions heretofore to animals with fur
and feathers. but a. X. Fisher. one of
the field experts. was sent to the scene of
the trouble. He found that in some re-
gions there were many as 10000 cray
fish holes to the acre. In these there
usually was single cray1sh, though
there have been reports TO the survey OF
community burrows. where there were as
many as go crayfish in d hole.
With this amount of infestation 1T was
impossible TO raise any crops. Expert
ments with blsuiphide OF carbon, however,
showed that the craytish were very sus-
ceptible TO the fumes, and three drops in
a burroW with the earth tamped down
would clean il out. In fact, when some
of the fish were sent to the department
and placed in a jar of water it was
found that they could be killed by pour
ing some of the fumes from a can Of bi-
sulphide into the jar they were inha bit
ing.
Fumes Heavier Than Ari
The fumes of bisulphide are heavier
than air and it can be poured like water.
The farmers of the shelfish-ridden region
are now poisoning their fields.
1t is a fairly expensive work the first
season. but Ifter that it is not thought
the cost will be so heavy. The lands are
valuable enough to make the treatment
worth while.
