to know It's particular cow. and passes
by dozens unnotced. until he nnds
the one he claims. Now, you may
think this part Is a. fairy story. but
those who have made study Of ants
and their ways. tell US that these
dairyman ants sometimes actually
build tiny fences around their COWS
70 keep them from straying of and
getting lost. They are not regular
fences like the ones around pastures
and fields, but are made from plant
matter which the ants push up into
little ridges around their particular
stock. And TO keep the little shut-up
creature contonted. tho ant brings
food and throws n over the fence,
just as we would throw clover over
the fence TO the cow The Aphis may
get tired Of being followed about and
MIXED so constantly, but then, the
rubbing feels good. and It IS mighty
nice to have some one 10 feed and
take care OF them. The ants have no
regular milking time. but tag along
behind their cattle. and milk them
whenever they got hungry.

some from their moro fortunate
neighbors. or course. the owners OF
the COWS refuse to give them up with

battle follows. in which a great many
on both sides are killed and wounded.

she had just been TO Niagara Falls.

"You wouldn't want anything dis

Ants That Keep CO1Us

zTu HEN a man buys a COW he
takes good care to see that
NH she gets plenty TO eat, has
" plenty Of fresh water when
ever she wants It and a shelter from
the rain and cold. And all this is
done for the sake OF the milk she
gives him morning and evening.
Now we wonder II you have ever
heard OF a certain kind Of ants that
keep and care for little nat. green
COWS, for the sake Of the honey-like
milk they give? OF course. they are
not really and truly COWS. but are
only teeny little insects that live on
the leaves Of plants.
The book name for these curious
little creatures is Aphis. but most
people call them plant-lice. as that IS
easier to remember. They are so
little, and so FIAT. and so near the
color OF the plants they live on, that
one has TO look very closely to see
them at all. and then Il Is hard TO be-
lieve they are alive. They have in
their bodies a kind OF a Juice with a
sweetish. honey-like taste. and they
have a habit OF dropping this about
on the leaves where they feed. Now
these ants are very fond Of this Juice.
and somehow they have found out
that II they rub the little plant lice
very gently with their feelers, they
will drop a little OF this sweet stun
on the leaves. And so the smart ant
goes from one Aphis to another. and
rubs them with It's feelers. just as the
farmer goes from one COW to an

other when milking time comes The
ant does not eat the honey drops
where they fall.,but gathers them up
and takes them home to the baby
ants, who have to be fed like little
human babies.
The ants that gather up the honey
are called servant ants. because they
wait on the others. and when they
have fed the babies, they get more

from the legislature last spring and re-
elected last week, viii be allowed to re-
tain their seats when the legislature
convenes tonight
1t was reported that national and
state Republican leaders have made
known their objection to having the
Socialists again refused seats
Some assemblymen, however, have
expressed themselves as opposed to al
lowing the five men to sit, and it is re
ported that resolutions have been pre-
pared calling for their expulsion.
Some Of the assemblymen who voted
FOR the expulsion of the Socialists last
spring have argued that as the Social
ist party since has removed features of
its constitution to which the greatest
objection was made, the five men now
should be allowed to retain their seats.
