I and proceeds to ray eggs and establish
a cosy little home in toto. An ingenious
young Yankee who decided to leave one
nesting in his toe till he got back tc
the U. S. A. where his doctor brother
could do some research work only lost
three of his toes as an outcome of his
scientific enthusiasm.
A natty little gnat swarms around
the lights down in the town until il
gets tired. Then it sheds it IS wings and
proceeds to eat up all the wooden fur
niture and household fixtures in sight
Native wood is just pie for it. A din
ing room suite is only light lunch.
That is why wood for finishing houses
and making furniture is mostly import
ed here. This little insect has great
literary bent also and has been known
to go through complete set of Shake
speare in single night.
Any thing in spiders from a teeny
weeny one to tarantula can be spied
around Rio and there is an insect like
our cricket only three times as large
that serenades you madly in great
chorus when the night begins to fall
1t is tobacco brown in color with a
blunt head and has been christened
"Cigaro" because by wild stretch
of the imagination it may be said to
resemble cigar butt. Three opal like
Jewels are set in its. forehead. Other
ieweled bugs are the many irridescent
beetles that abound here. OF the legion
of gorgeous butterflies one of black and
scarlet is especially odd with perfect
figure SO on each rear wing.
And yet with this great array of in
sect life of which have only cited a
paltry portion Rio doesn t need screens
in its windows. 1t lacks the two great
est insect pests of the U. $. A. the
house fly and the mosquito. Not but
what it was formerly, filthy with this
pernicious pair but the government got
busy. They established a department
of sanitary police who spend their time
tracking mosquitoes to their lair and
swatting flies. All water supplies are
regularly personally inspected and no
pools of still water allowed to collect
anywhere hereabouts.

lice in a patrol wagon the other day on
the Avenida Rio Bronco. They were all
heavily equipped with guns and cart
ridge belts. suppose they were going
out to hunt mosquitoes.

COUNCIL VOTES $1,000
FOR SOUTH MILL CREEK
Time for Filing Initiative
Measures Changed
Other Business

With Councilmen Cook, Ward and
Wilson against the measure allowing
$1,000 for improvement of South Mill
creek SO as to prevent flooding when
the rains come, the resolution authoriz-
Ing the expenditure was passed at the
special injecting of the council last
night by vote of to 3. Councilmen
who voted for the resolution are Millet
Wallace, Mcclellan, Unruh, Roberts,
Huddleson, Patterson and Hoover. :,
Considerable discussion over the res
olution took place before it finally
came to vote. The three councilmen
voting against the measure said they
did so because they were of the opinion
that when the state ditch east of the
city is built it will drain so much water
into South Mill creek that he improve
men will be useless. Roll call of the
council was taken.
An increase in the license fee of junk
dealers operating in the city was made
The measure provides that junk deal
er using only one wagon shall pay
$3.50 for one day, $40 for one month,
and $50 per year and for extra wagons
or carts So per day, $5 per month, and
$50 per year. This bill carried by a
vote of 10 to |. In voting against the
measure Councilman Ward stated that
in hrs opinion it would put the small
dealer out of business and place the
gathering of junk in the hands of a
few who could then regulate prices to
suit themselves.
Because Councilman Wilson blocked
the suspension of the rules at the last
council meeting the ordinance provid-
ing for the cutting down of time for
filing of initiative measures did not
come up for passage and was taken up
last night and passed. The ordinance
cuts down the time of filing initiative
petitions from go to 30 days and elimi-
mates the publishing of the measures
in the newspapers, which feature is
said will net a saving to the city of
several hundred dollars, Heretofore a
copy of the measures to come up by
initiative petition was sent to the vot-
er and also published in the newspapers.
1t was thought sufficient just to mail
the voter a pamphlet with the measures
in it,

Brazil Abounds In Bugs
Margaret Mason Discovers
BY Margaret Mason

BY Margaret Mason
All the bugs are full of tricks
Down in Rio Bay
Folks are also full of ticks
On their jungle way.
Then to nearly drive 'em frantic
AS they start to flea
Ant and tick cut up an antic
Ere they let 'em bee
Rio de Janeiro, Sept. 20.-(By mail)
Brazil abounds in bugs human and
otherwise. Joyous little f,leas leap light
~ from limb to limb. You may flet
your bed but you II not flee the files
Strange as it may seem you won't find
tick in your bed though. The festive
| tick nests rather in the Jungle. When
you go mountain climbing, or orchid
hunting or butterfly chasing you d bet
ter watch out for ticks for you re sure
to be covered with them. If you KEEP
a watch on your wrist you III find as
many as sixty ticks minute. | know
a man personally who made this tick
lish record.
Brazil is the happy hunting ground
of the ant, relatively speaking. There
are all sorts and conditions of ants
big, little, red, brown, and black. A
young American engineer told me ot
an ant experience he once had in the
interior of the country. He stopped his
horse to rest under huge tree and
when the horse stamped and pranced
,around he investigated. The whole
ground seemed to be moving with a
vast army of ants while up in the tree
was another mess of them cutting the
leaves in half and dropping them down
| to the ants below who carried them
away. The young engineer said when
he came back over this same road in
couple of hours the tree was stripped
absolutely bare.
As can readily be seen ants are rath-
or rough on vegetation and when they
get in an orange grove they strip it in
a single night.
Up in the interior the natives get
even with the big fat ants by eating
them. They roast them till they pop.
This is considered great delicacy
and although | never tried any in this
style | we had several small black ants
served in my soup.
