TERMTTE OR WHITE Ant.
A Dangerous md Insidious Destroyer
Of Property Trees and Especially
Wooden buildings.

The termlte or white ant. ms IL is
known hero. IL n very dangerous and
insidious destroyer OF trees and espe-
cially buildings with wooden fonnda-
items and wooden supports. The In
jury which they do is done In such a
manner that the damage IL not noti-
ceGble until afterward.
Termites are usually tropical In
sects nut THIS particular species Is
found In the southern part OF the
United States and north even farther
than Nebraska. II IL not n true ant
but called one because OF It's social
nature. Inc workers are wingiess
and OF 4 dirty white color. New
colonies are formed by old ones divid-
irg.
In the spring they leave the nest
and go on a journey known rs the
marriage flight. II Ii not known
whether they return to the old nest.
The normal food OF these ants IL
dry and decaying wood and vegetable
matter. They do considerable dam
age to fruit trees by starting with
the roots and working up. honey
ccmbing the trunk. This is especial
ly true OF the plum, peach and cherry.
They are serious enemies of the nur-
serymen because they destroy the
seeding stock. These insects will
tunnel into the woodwork or frame
work OF n house or into some furni-
ture, causing Il to crumple. They are
very destructive In libraries. eating
and working their way through books
and papers. Some papers which
were kept In a steel vault, surround
ed by eighteen inches of esolid con-
crete, were found to be literally rid
died by these pests. II has not been
discovered just how they gained an
entrance. In a solid concrete floor a
little pile of earth has been investi-
gated and below It was found a round
hole through which the termite had
come up from beneath. II is thought
that 1t worked up through some
CT Gcks or weak places, probably bor-
Ing out some OF the concrete.
This ruinous insect Is like all evil
doors, Il does not want light. II
has strong tendency to avoid light
and when 1t cannot run Its galleries
In the darkness It will construct
covers owe the exposed places. In
the tropical countries II has been
known to build such tunnels for con-
siderable distances.
The remedies or exterminators for
these are not simple aud are difficult
to apply. for the greatest trouble is
getting to the tsrmites. They are
under floors and In the woodwork Of
houses so II often involves the tearing
away OF certain portions to reach

RS Advised Not TO Sell Eggs
From Incubators.

IL 100 SICK TO ne dangerous now
Farmers Advised Not TO Sell Eggs
From Incubators.
A number OF poultry raisers, Il
seems, are putting on the market In
fertile eggs that have been tested In
incubators from three days to n week.
As soon as the breeder finds that the
eggs will not hatch he takes them out
and sends them to market along with
his fresh spring eggs. After the eggs
have been in the incubator for this
period they are distinctly stale and
rot very quickly n kept any length OF
time. Even when Just taken from
the incubator these infertile eggs are
not fit for boiling or poarching. al
though they may be used for frying,
and are good for cake or certain
other baked foods. These eggs when
they reach the market. however, are
classified as low grade. No. 2.
The mixing OF incubator eggs with
the fresh spring Eggs leads the g
packers. who get their principal cold
storage supply In the spring. TO cut
the price they pay the farmer. depart
ment Investigators find. The spring
eggs designed for keeping for winter
consumption must be absolutely good.
Moreover, the egg packers In the spr-
Ing do not candle eggs, but hold them
three at q time In the hand and cllnk
them TO discover any crack. and then
Judge their freshness by their fresh,
powdery look on the shell. The mix
ture OF infertile incubator eggs with
fresh eggs interiors seriously with
this blinking and forces the packer to
candle the eggs. He then deducats
this added expense from the price he
offers to the producer. Eggs which
have once been subjected to the heat
u the incubator can not be stored,
v c though frozen.
Tho farmer who sells incubator
eggs to the dealer, therefore. is very
liable to injure his own market for
fresh eggs. When dealers find a per-
centase OF low-grade Incubator or
other eggs In their fresh spring egg
supply. they lower the price for all
eggs. 80 that they will be certain that
they have covered themselves against
losses from this cause. The depart
ment's specialists advise farmers TO
use any infertile eggs they may take
from their incubators for home con-
sumption and to send only fresh eggs
to market.
