ANTS DESTROY FLIES.
Why the Filipinos Are Free Of One
Insect Pest.

Capt. Percy L. Jones Of the Army
Medical Corps, reports that flies are
comparatively rare in the Philippines
because of a species OF ant which
consumes the larvae of the fly with
avidity.
Upon watching these ants attack
fly larvae" he says, "it Is interesting
to note that they do so in way
which proves that they are no nov
ices at the procedure. One will at
tack an extremity and apparently
bite il, and as soon as the larvae be-
gins to coil and make efforts to es-
cape numbers of others will immedi-
ately jump upon it, and in the course
of a few moments the larvae will be
apparently dead.
81 believe that the ant introduces
some venom in the act of biting,
formic acid in character, which pre-
serves the larvae as food until such
time as the ant needs it-cans it, in
other words. AS soon as the strug-
giles of the larvae have ceased they
haul it off to their nests and return
for others. In llany instances l have
seen them carry away pupae. 1t will
be interesting for the reader to pro-
cure a few maggots and place them
over an ant bed"
So far as is known this species OF
ant is not found in the United States
and indeed is not yet classified Capt
Jones has considered the practically
ity of introducing it into countries
where the determination of the fly is
destined to become an important feat
ure of sanitation. This ant is said &c
be an energetic destroyer of bed bugs
as well as of fiies.-Militarv Spraeon

Long Way to Introduce Goods Into
New Territory-First Profits Smaller,
but Business Is Built.
John Smith of Cresco, Ia, is in the
shoe business. He is In competition
with two other shoe stores in town and
three general stores. He is also fight.
ing for trade in competition with mail
order houses in Chicago. Minneapolis
and Kansas City.
When he puts in stock of goods he
finds that he cannot buy any cheaper
than the stores already in the field. He
can have shoes made with his own
name on them which net him a profit
on an average of 33 1-3 per cent per
pair, but he is dealing with a value
then which the people of his communi-
ty know nothing about, and he realizes
that it will be hard pull to sell only
those shoes which bear his own name
and which have no identity as to value
with the average consumer. He finds
the other stores are established, doing
a comfortable business. They are just
as popular socially as he is, and he
looks about for some aid to enable him
to break into the shoe trade.
1t is logical, then. that he should de-
termine upon some advertised brand
of shoes that is known to every fam
ily in his neighborhood, which has
been advertised so effectively that the
standard of value is fixed in the pub
lies mind, so that when he hangs up
his sign and puts his advertisement
in the papers that he handles -

come to him because they recognize
that he is marketing well defined

can generally get an exclusive agency.
He can have shoe that is not sold
by any other store in his town-he
can have a shoe that is not sold by
mail order houses at all and that nets
him on the average as good a profit as
/ an unadvertised brand of shoes.
1t is true that his initial profit on
the advertised line Oh SuOeS may Ue
smaller than the profit that is marked
on the nonadvertised lines, but the ad-
vertised shoe seldom requires clean
up sale or cut price to move 1t.
whereas this is the regular procedure
with the nonadvertised shoe, so that
the profit percentage margin per year
is as good or better with the advertis-
ed line as it is with the nonadvertised.
| The dealer is able to sell shoe that
/ is known to every family in his neigh
borhood. which cant be sold by mail
order houses and which is produced by
/ a manufacturer constantly striving to
! give the dealer advertising helps and
! store cooperation so as to build , a
constantly growing business.

turer this friendly cooperation be-
cause the dealer is the sole represent

WOMEN VOTE SEEKERS
AND ANTS MAY CLASH
SufiraglStS at Albany Want Con-
StitutiOn Amended.

The woman suffrage campaign,
which is an irresistible feature of ev-
cry legislative session, opened with a
reception at the Hotel Ten Eyck in
Albany. Women who want to have
the constitution amended to give them
the right to vote were there in large
numbers. The event was the formal
Inauguration of suffrage week, which
will be marked by two or three public
meetings, many teas, church and social
gatherings generally.
For the first time in several years
the antisuffragists arrived in Albany
about the same time as the vote seek
ers. Usually the ants wait until the
day of the legislative hearing and
come to Albany merely to talk down
their ambitious sisters. This time,
however, the opposition got on the
ground early with a wagon load of
prepared speeches, and there may be
clashes for the balance of the week.
The opening reception was attended
by members of the legislature. state
officers and others who happened to
drop in. There was no formality about
it. The blue flag of the Equal Fran
chise society had place alongside of
the stars and stripes, and the green
aud white flags of the Women's Politi-
cal union also formed part Of the deco
ratiOns.
