discovered that the despised weed
known rs Australian salt bush may be

This plant is found along all the
highways from Arizona to Washington,
and in eastern Oregon. where it Is
known as the Pendleton flood weed. 1T

that Il state law has been passed max

that it is really of more value to that

Honey Ants.

Certain Mexican ants are selected by
their kindred rs stOrehouses of honey.
They are fed with honey until the alb
domen speedily becomes smooth and
round and so filled with honey that the
skin is transparent. These ants are
doomed to pass the remainder Of their
lives as mere honey cells. from which
their kindred extract the honey when
it is required. There are several speci-
mems of these ants in the British mu-
scum with the honey still within their
transparent bodies. The Mexicans raid
the nests of these ants for the sake Of
the honey that their bodies contain.
and the ants are eaten raw as sweet
meats.

Here lies the secret Of the eXtraor-
binary success of the 'safe and sane
Fourth" campaign in the last few
years. The movement is by no means
OF recent date. In fact for forty years
or more there had been spasmOdic eff
forts to do away with the sinister red
explosives that annually wrought in
creasing loss of life and limb. The
trouble was that these efforts We're di-
rected merely toward prohibition, not
toward substitution.

tive measures. They threatened to de-
