Book Worms Busy

worms have begun their work on the
records in the storage vaults Of the state

Of records. many OF them Of inestimable
value. may be ruined.
The bookworm. according to Chief Clerk
Harry Lindsay. plies his vocation i'm 10
cations where It is damp and its appear
ance in the state house can only be laid
to the fact that there has been so much
damp weather during the last year and
the vaults have become damp and musty.
giving the insect plenty of chance to
breed and work.
The section Of the vault where the
work OF the pest has appeared shows
nearly every volume in that section al
ready ruined by the work of the little
insect The backs Of the books have been
pierced with little round holes about the
size Of small pinhead. The effect Of
their work is to unloosen the covers and
the leather backing becomes rotten 50
that the whole cover comes off. Mr..
Lindsay says that he dare not move any
of the books in the vault to the library
for fear that the pests may be carried
to that place and the entire library
ruined.
The rapidly crumbling foundations OF
the state house are in part responsible
for the condition. for water is seeping In
from all sides through the cracks OF the
foundation and in one instance some
court records. which are supposed 20 be
kept in good condition for all time, have
become damp and musty and may ulu-
mately be ruined. 1t is situation which
is liable to become a very serious one
for the state and may result in the loss
of property which cannot be replaced
under any consideration.

nation as secretary of the commission

Mr. Allen has bought a half interest in
