BrOWntaiI Moth
IS Found Again
In This State

New Haven, March 4The broWntail
moth, a pest which has kept the
entomologiSts in Massachusetts busy
for years, has been found in New
London, Holland and Hartford counties
according to a statement from the Of
Between, five and six hundred nests
were destroyed in Suheld, last week,
by scouts employed by the state. Sew
eral nests have also been found in
Enfield and West Hartford where men
in charge Of Donald J. Coffrey are now
a.tgwork
Nearly three years ago the. first
! Each winter since the scouts have ex-
aninea the trees in that corner of the
state and except for a few nests
scattered outside the pest has been
confined to Windham County. This
winter, nests have been found in the
three adjacent counties. The nests
are on the extreme ends of twigs and
are formed, of gray webs often includ-
ing dead leaves. In these nests the
young caterpfllars live through the
winter and resume their feeding upon
leaves the next summer. The remedy
is cutting off and burning the nests
in winter and each. property owner
should see that this is done. In Mas
sachusetts a state law requires this.
Spraying of the foliage with arsenate
of lead. in summer is another remedy
The -bfowntaiL moth is chiefly a. pest
Of fruit and oak tree and causes much
annoyance to persons on account of a
rash produced when the hairs from
the caterpillar come in contact with
the human skin. The brown tail
should not be confused with the gypsy
moth-a different pest-which has been
found only in Stonington and Walling-
ford and exterminated.

Presidential Names.

Thomas Woodrow Wilson," The an
made in connection with GER
tain inaugural plans that the full bap-
tismal cognomen would be adopted seems
to have caused some surprise at Trenton.
and as far as plans Of the President-to-be
are known he will sign his official papers
by the simpler style Of his most familiar
appellation. This will probably be the
wisest course for him to pursue. The
shorter the presidential name the better

The Railroad Firemen.

BY a vote of 40 per cent the railway
firemen. who have for some time been
trying to obtain a readjustment of work
ing conditions. have decided to carry their
contentious to the point of n strike II the
railroad companies do not grant arbitra-
ton along particular lines. The f1remen
insist that the issues as to working con-
ditions should be submitted to arbitrators
named under the terms of the Erdman
act, consisting Of three members. the
award to be made within thirty days
after the appointment of the board. The
railroad companies. on the other hand. are
willing to arbitrate only on the plan by
which the demands Of the engineers were
settled, the board consisting Of one arbi-
TRAITOR from each side and five others
named by these two. without a time limit
on the rendering of the decision. The
firemen contend that the larger board
and longer time of the companies plan
tended against a satisfactory settlement.
while the companies maintain that the
issues in this case are too complex for
three men to settle under a time limit.
Inasmuch as the only issue at stake at
present is as to the manner Of the arbi-
tration. 1t is hardly to be believed that
the differences between the firemen and
the railroads will be carried to the point
of a strike. Certainly q strike in these
would be in the last degree
unjustifable.

comparable with that of the residents OF
other cities Of approximately the same
size as Washington. The assertion, how
ever, was made bv Representative john
