ROSS lads DIE N WELL.
AND LAWRENCE AR.
CHER sUCCUMB TO GAS FUMES
IN FIFTY FOOT WELL ON
FATHERS HOMESTEAD SOUTH
OF ROSS.

Andrew and Lawrence Archer, two
well known Ross young men, died
from the effects Of gas in fifty foot
well on their fathers homestead on
the reservation south of Ross Tuesday.
The boys were digging a we'll and had
gotten down so feet, succeeding in
getting some water. When they re-
turned to work that afternoon the
water had mysteriously disappeared
and Lawrence was let down in a
bucket to investigate. When near the
bottom, he fell. His brother Andrew
frantically climbed down the rope and
when but twelve feet down, he too was
overcome and fell to the bottom. A
third brother, Harry, secured a rope,
tied it about his waist and the father
let him into the we'll, but when IL
feet down he too was overcome. The
father pulled him out and after some
time he regained consciousness. The
neighbors were called and at II o.
clock that night the bodies were taken
from the we'll. This is one of the
worst tragedies that has occurred in
the Ross country.

(By G. E. MILLER Instructor in Biology
North Dakota Agricultural College)
It is quite generally known that in
sects are the cause of great destruc.
ton to crops every year. In recent
years, the protection of our birds of
field and meadow has materially de-
creased this destruction, because great
quantities of these insect pests are
consumed every year by the birds. 1t
is of the great aid, in getting rid Of
harmful insects, given us by our ST.
lent workers. the toads. and by frogs
that wish to speak.
Instead of being appreciated, these
animals, especially the toads, have
borne the burden Of much misrepre-
sentation. They, have been regarded
as venomohs. supposed to produce
warts IL touched, and given credit for
doing other things too absurd to men,
ton. The real facts are that not only
arc they perfectly harmless to man,
but they are great help on account
Of the immense variety and quantity
Of insects eaten each season.
BY actual examination of the stom-
ach contents of great number Of
toads, F. e. Beal determined that SO
per cent. Of the toad's food was OF
animal origin. It consisted OF ants,
crickets, grasshoppers. spiders, SOW
bugs, snails, weevils, carton beetles,
potato beetles, May beetles and other
beetles, cut worms, wire worms, thou
sand-legged worms, earth worms, tent
caterpillars and other caterpillars.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1914-03-19

The quantity consumed Is quite r.
markable. Records have been made
of finding II thousand-lesse worms
in one stomach, IS. gypsy-moth cater
pillars in another, and 81 tent cater
pillars in another. A toad has been
known to snap up sc house flies in
ten minutes. The amount of food CON
sumed by a toad in "a hours amounts
to about four times it's stomach capac
ity. So it is easily understood how
the toads destroy such large numbers
OF insects each season.
Frogs eat much the same variety
and quantity Of insects as toads, but
feed during the day while toads are
nocturnal. In their habits.
The enemies OF toads and frogs are
many. Among them are snakes.
skunks. hawks, owls, crows, hens,
ducks and geese, that destroy many
OF these useful creatures every year.
Many are killed by small boys, just
for fun. Farmers, who are the people
most benefited, destroy many iunin.
tentionally by burning over fields.
Having come more than half way to
man to escape natural enemies, assist
ance can be given them by allowing
some shallow places and some water
holes to remain in fields or meadows.
In this way places for hiding and
breeding places are provided. When
we fully realize how useful toads and
frogs are, we shall not only cease de-
stroying them, but protect and foster
them.
