Some while back (writes a Cairo,
Egypt, correspondent of the Pail Mall
Gazette) it was announced that a little
worm had been discovered which was
a deadly enemy of the redoubtable cot
ton worm and invariably devoured it.
Apropos of this the following is rather
amusing:
The editors of the Mokattam, hear
ing that specimens of this little pest
had been found on their cotton es
tates, caused three of them to be sent
to them in Cairo, so that the authori-
ties might examine them. The speci-
mems were sent off from Benha in a
sealed box, which duly reached its
destination intact. Judge of their as
constituent when, on opening the box,
only one specimen remained; there
was absolutely no trace of the other
two, so there could be but one con-
clusion-i. e., that the solitary inmate
had eaten up his two companions.
This was confirmed by the post
mortem" examination, and now the
question presents itself as to whether
the alleged devourer of the cotton
worm will. when bred in quantities, as
the authorities intended to do, con-
tinue to show it's "cannibal' tenden-
cies and so defeat its own end, or
whether it will afford the assistance to
the cotton worm campaign which, be-
fore this little episode, the agricultur-
al authorities claimed for and expect
ed from it.

Trees in watersheds have benefi-
cial effect, according to the last an
nual report of the board of water COM
missioners of Middleton, Conn, in
which it is recommended that 46,725
trees be set out at Highly reservoir
The benefits to be derived from
growth of trees on the watershed of
the reservoir are said to be the fol-
lowing: The roots of the trees hold
the soil and to a great extent pre-
vents its wash into the reservoir; the
leaves and twigs that fall form a Gov
ering on the ground that protects the
soil from the wash of the rainfall;
they also absorb large quantity of
water and let 1t flow off gradually to
the reservoir, thus continuing to be a
benefit to water supply for a long
time and after a cleared land would
be dry; the foliage of the trees forms
a canopy which serves to lessen the
effect of evaporation upon the surface
of the ground.

The man that is always so anxious
to avoid his own people in public

in localities populated by his own
color: the business man that neglects
to patronize his colored brother who
is in business, are all made to feel
the snubs, insults and scorns Of the
white man be would ape, and made to
plainly feel that so far as he (the
white MANI is concerned he has moth
ing for the black man other than to
get his money at a great per cent OF
profit and a higher rate of interest
and sometimes even his money is not
wanted. 1t is time that colored people
stood together at all times on all is
sues and conditions. No one is fit to
be called a man who is ashamed of his
race. 1t is absolutely imperative that
we stop and reason on the adage. TN
union there is strength" and get to-
gether and stay together.-The De
