Nevada, Nov. 20. - There are few
people in Iowa who woald look upon
the collection of butterflies and moths
in this state as any other than a fad,
hobby or pursuit or mere pastime, yet
Mr.. and Mrs. O. Floyd Hiser. of this
city. have been engaged in the BUSH
ness for the past four Years to con-
siderable profit TO themselves. In fact
with them it is commercial pursuit
as we'll as a pastime in which they
derive a seat deal of pleasure.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hiser have large coll
lection Of both the butterflies and
moths and have large line of eX
change and correspondence regarding
their collections. While he number
of varieties of the butterflies to be Sc
cured in this territory is not large

mems and this summer they had an
order from Germany for nearly hun
cred dollars worth Of the butterflies
and moths which they We're unable to

Moth Collecting Lucrative Business.
The collection of moths is a much
more lucrative business in this terri
tory than that of butterflies. The Mis-
siSsippi valley and Iowa IS the home of
the cato Gala moth. one Of the most
valuable varieties, and they are TO be
mad here in large number. II is not
unusual for Mr.. and Mrs. Hiser to go

market value of from 10 IS cents and
there is always ready market for
them. Whenever a female moth of u
valuable variety is found it IS placed
in a paper bag. provided with soaked
dried fruit for food and wi,!fla many
eggs during the season. POSSIBLY as
many as $50. These .E-il be Matched

particular variety of moth. They now
have about $4,000 eggs on hand for

Method Of Securing Specimens.
The collection is done in the early
evening hours. They drive out to
favorable timber site in the edge OF
town where the surroundings are ia
Norable. There they beat the trees by
spreading a solution of sugar and stale
beer upon them and mark them with
white pieces of rags TO draw the
moths. The bait and marks draw them
and after dusk they go out with lam
tern and collect those that have been
drawn, taking only the perfect speci-
mems and an hours pleasant pastime

They have sold many in Germany

threatens to be cold day in the Col
lar City" for woman suffrage. Inc
workingman, by an overwhelming ma
jority, seems opposed TO it. 1t IS the
workingman-in the foundries and
shirt and collar factories-who casts
the largest vote in this city. He pre-
fers 70 do his balloting without wora-
anly assistance or opposition.
Behind the workingman's decision TO
defeat the woman suffrage amendment
is his wife. il straw vote taken rere
among some 300 workers showed that
more than half the men believe
suffrage should be restricted TO the
male part Of the population. Thci-
wives, they frequently declared. were
so entirely occupied with household and
family duties that they had not even
found time to covet the vote.
Sentiment against votes for women
seems more widespread here -har ~

terday that a majority Of several irn-
dred votes intended 10 defeat the
measure.
The collar and shirt manufacturing
plants. which form the industrial back
bone of Troy, are anti-sufrage hives.

At another meeting. where 16o voters
opposed the amendment, ninety-fouf
were favorably disposed. A man was
found who advanced q novel reason foI
voting in the negative. He said: Il
talked the other day with a woman
making a suffrage speech near the
factory, and I said: First thing you
women will do is tax bachelors, and
I'll either have 10 get married or CON-
nit suicide
And do you know what she said 70
me- Commit suicide. by all means
Pretty as a picture she WAS. too,
he added
The vote taken at the political meet
ings represented the voice of the work
irgmen. That obtained from the thea
tire audience was indicative Of the SEN
timent of the business and professional
men. The results bore out the as
sertion of local newspaper man. who
said: "You will find the men OF means,
as a rule. favor women suffrage. but
the workingmen are in the majority
here, and pretty solid against the
amendment"

All votes, of which i9S were for woman
suffrage, l28 opposed and SIS "unde-

The large count in favor of the meas.
ure in this instance is accounted for IN
the fact that the ratio Of the voting
singers was about to 5 in favor. The
majority of them, according TO Fortune
Gallo, the company's manager, are reg.
istered voters of New York City. On
Election Day, less than a week away
they will be absent from home, still

The vote was taken in the entire
