Klngdom makes the human race ap-
pear incredibly inefficient.
civilization has for the last twenty
years and more been steadily over
turning the balance of nature. which
has kept the insect kingdom down. and
this scientists throughout the world
nave recognized. Within half that
time what amounts to worldwide
organization has been formed to find
and make known to all who care
the best ways to cope with the fast
growing swarms which menace hui
mainly. 1t is recognized that only by
a tireless, long and costly and dan
gerous struggle will man be able to re-
tain his dominance and freedom to de-
velop his world.
The latest warning of this neril to
humanity has been sounded in a most
remarkable fashion by Prof. C. A.
Ealand, one of the foremost entomolo-
gists of the world and the late prin-
cipal of the East Anglican college of
agriculture of England. Professor
Ealand begins his remarkable work,
which he calls Insects and Man, .
with the following statement:
1t is fortunate for man that the in
sect world is house divided against
itself. Except for this check the hu.
man race would be extinct in five or
six years"
The fecundity Of many insects is
enormous. Huxley estimated that
mishaps apart, single green fly would
in ten generations produce mass of
organic matter equivalent to 100000
600 human beings. or as many as the
whole population of the Chinese EN-.
pirel
From the earliest times man has suf-
fered from insect damage to his crops,
his live stock and himself. Locust
plaques rivaling those of Egypt have
come to man from time to time.
The United States suffers damage
annually to the extent of $4,000, 900
owing to the depredations of the Hes
sian fly; the cotton boil weeviI causes
an annual loss of $30,0OO,OOO; the cod
ling moth $15,000,000. and the chinch
bug $7.00O,0OO. Add to this the dam
age done by gypsy and brown-tail
moths and the San Jose scale, to say
nothing of the host of minor pests,
and the total assumes alarming pro-
portions.
The struggle for supremacy between
insects and man is a very real one
the world over.
But only by ceaseless struggle can
man keep his dominance. In his fight
against insects and bugs he has ar
rayed against him an incredible fecun-
dity and power of destruction.
The majority of people-unscientif
people, that Essays Professor Ealand,
think that the locust is the most de
structive insect. This is partly be-
cause of the Biblical plague having
been fixed in their minds. The To-
Gusts have done more damage in South
Africa and hindered agricultural prog.

The piano is a durable musical in
strument which is used to entertain Wis
itors who are not aware of what is com
ing. 1t is also used with great success
as a parlOr ornament, and when thus
employed, collects dust and discords in
large quantities. The dust is removed
at stated periods with an oil mop, but
the discOrds are not detected until
somebody tries to render the Blue Dan
ube waltz, only to have some fascinated
listener inquire which one of the
Chopin mazurkas that was.
Music is produced from the piano by
leaning heavily against the keys with
both hands and stepping on the loud

The Manchester Union also filings
forth the warning against the cock
suredness of the Republican leaders
who have already elected their presi-
dent and congress a year hence. The
Union says: LET no Republican, hold
ing the welfare of his party sincerely
at heart, permit himself to be deceived
into the supposition that party success
will be accomplished by any waning of
Wilson influence. Republican success at
the next national election will not be
based on negative quality in the De
mocracy or its candidate. 1t must
come, if at all, through very positive
qualities on the part of the Republican
party and its candidate. The strongest
candidate and the strongest and most
progressive platform obtainable will be
not a whit too strong or too progress
sive for the Republican party to invoke
in 1916. No Republican editor should
make the mistake of assuming that the
presidential election of next year is
going to be handed over to the Re
pubHcans by default. Least of al
should the Republican leaders and the
rank and ifiIe of the party be misleC
into any such assumption"

harmony is discovered and put back
by striking the same key a few hundred
times and listening intently with the

is called positive pitch and do not have

trust to one who leans caressingly over
the instrument at right angles with the
piano stool.
Pianos are played by people who are
equipped with enthusiasm and high

In these days of organization for
mutual cooperation every city and
large town has its chamber of com
meree or board of trade for the pur-
pose of promoting commercial inter
ests, to encourage the development OF
industries and to secure new enter
prises to begin operations III the local
field. All these organizations urge Il
policy expressed by the phrase, Pat

merchant, banker and mechanic

In years gone by the field workers
of the United States geological survey
were, as class, very likely to be
stricken with typhoid fever. Three
years ago the entire field force took
advantage of the offer of the war de-
partment to supply official anti-typhoid
serum, and practically the entire force
of men was inoculated. Since that time,
as far as reported, there has been no
serious case of typhoid fever among
