alter her work. The American, who
had seen nothing wrong, ventured to
ask what was the matter, whereupon
he was informed that she had placed
twelve leaves in o certain combina-

seems, was the right number 200

God, and Llanbister, the manure yard

name Of which runs to ffty-eight let

c,ehineeI Insects.

Before many years cochineal scarlet
will have become 4 thing of history
only, like the Tyrian purple of antiQul-
ty. That is the conclusion Of NJ. Leon
Diguet, who has been studying the
state of the cochineal industry III Mex
leo. The first specimens Of cochineal
were taken to Europe by the Spanish
Adventures in the sixteenth century.
The Indians had cultivated the coccus
cacti, from which the color is derived
in pre-C Columbian times, and after the
Spanish conquest the industry devel-
oped rapidly. The city Of Oazaca was
the center Of the cochineal country In
the days Of Humboldt, but only few
plantations of the nopal cactus. on
which the insects are fed, now remain.
The female insects only are used to
form a dye, and they are gathered by
brushing the branches of the nopai as
soon as they begin to lay their eggs.
They are then desiccated in ovens or
killed with boiling water.
