Fire at Mayors Home.

At 100 Saturday the alarm for
fire sounded from Box 46. The fire
proved to be about the chimney of the
house of C. S. Emery. Owing to the
very cold day a fire had been started
in the fire place and being of a fashy
nature, started a fire on the roof.
The fire company responded very
quickly and laid their hose lines
ready to fight but the prompt use of a
hand chemical extinguished the fire
readily.
This proves again that when New
ports mayor starts, something will
surely result.

PLAN ACTIVE WAR ON PESTS
West Indian Sugar Planters Seek Aid
of the Lizard and Species
of Fungus Growth.

Lizard farming and fungus cultiva-
ton are means adopted in the West
Indies to protect the sugar industry.
It has been discovered that the frog
hopper (Thomaspis sacharina), So
called on account of It's great leaping
powers, is the greatest pest of the
sugar cane, and that it multiplies by
thousands on single plants, sucking
the sap from roots and leaves. In the
last three or four years two remedies
have been developed. F. w. Urich,
West Indiap entOmolOgiSt. has dem
onstrated that lizards devious great
quantities of the immature hoppers,
and J. Il. Rorer. q United States my
cologiSt, has shown that spores of the
fungus known rs green muscardine"
are peculiarly fatal to the adults. AS
war has been begun in Trinidad, where
the investigation has been made,
against the rapacious mOngoos, which
has made lizards scarce. In addition,

aged to multiply under favoring condi-
tons of sand banks for burrows, with
an abundance of food and water. The
fungus is grown in test-tube cabinets,
which produce spores that are busted
over the cane fields by special distrib-
lting machines.

To Warm Room Evenly.

The temperature of heated room
is several degrees warmer at the cell
ing than at the floor. To equalize the
temperature, it is necessary for the
air to be in circulation. This may be
accomplished with an electric fan, but
to prevent any unnecessary draughts,
the blast from the fan should be con-
fined. AS the air must be driven from
the floor TO the ceiling, place the fan
in one corner of the room in such a
position that it will drive the air up
wards. To keep the air confined make
q cardboard tube about six inches in
diameter to carry the air up and across
the ceiling to the opposite corner of
the room. This will take the cold air
from the floor and force it out at the
ceiling level. Naturally the air cur
rents are forced from q lower to a
higher level, thus equalizing the tenn

SHELLS TO USE FOR BUTTONS
A Species That Is Abundant In New
Zealand Can Be Used to Ad-
vantage.

According to information which
has been furnished by the depart
ment of internal affairs at Yelling
ton, the Trochus niloticus, common
ly found in Queensland and the
South Sea islands, does not occur in
New Zealand; but other shells which
are found in these waters might be
used in the manufacture of buttons,
especially the paua, HaliotiS iris, and
the toitol, Ostraea sulcata. They are
not ut present used for the manufac-
ture of buttons or for similar uses,
but both occur in great numbers on
rocky coasts near the low-tide mark,
the paua being much the commoner.
Since these shells have never been
sought for commercial purposes, there
