CATERPILLARITIS IS LATEST
Chicago City Forester Says Men Who
Trim Trees Are Afflicted With
the Freak Disease.

Chicago.-Have you had caterpillar.
tits?
> If you haven't you have missed the
latest thing in freak diseases. The
fact Of it's existence was made known
the other day by ]. H. Prost, city for.
ester.
"The disease" said Mr.. Prost, sis
caused by the caterpillar Of the tus-
sock moth, which infests willow, lin.
den, horse chestnut and Carolina pop.
lar trees. 1t is rash disease; wher'
ever the caterpillar touches the skin
the rash breaks out.
"This fact can best be testified to
by the men who have been at work
trimming trees for the forestry depart
ment. Their arms, shoulders and bod
les are more or less covered with a
rash, which is very painful. The rash
is caused by the insect sending small
spines into the air and against bodies
with which they come in contact"
Mr.. Prost said the caterpillar of the
tussock moth was particularly trouble
some In the territory bounded by
South Central Park avenue, Harrison
street, Sacramento boulevard and
Twelfth street.
"At Troy and Fillmore Streets" he
declared, "caterpillars crawl all over
the porch, preventing everyone from
sitting out on the porch in the eve
ming. They crawl into the home and
form pupae beneath the window sills
and along the stairway"

il would appear to be equally permis-
