almost immune. One sees as many Of
them in Denver. COL. as in Lakeland.
Kansas City, Mo-, probably has ten
times as many as Miami.

observer agrees that Florida is singu-
larry free from insect pests, considering
its location and latitude. 1t has the
best climate in the world, and every
body north Of here, who owns Aiv-

as he can. If those whoscan't come

A QUESTION OF MOSQUE
TOES,

The Miami Metropolis is justly
peeved because canard about mos
quitoes in Miami, started at Macon,
Ca. is being reprinted all over the
United States. Such things are an
noying. Of course, but they are also
amusing.
y NOBODY denies that there are mos
quitoes in Florida. 1t would be a
miracle if there were not. But what
Of it, What state has a right to
throw stones at us on that account?
The mosquito is a troublesome, ubi-
quitous little brute, not welcome
anywhere, but utterly lacking in those
finer qualities which often prompt even
animals and insects to move on when
they are not wanted. You find them
in Georgia. by the million. They
congegate and thrive in louisiana and
Texas and Mississippi and Arkansas.
You find them on the upper waters
Of the Mississippi River. Any one
who ever waded trout stream in
Michigan, Wisconsin or Minnesota
can testify to their presence there.
not in battalions but in whole armies,
with far heavier artillery than they ever
employ in Florida. Out in New
Mexico. Arizona. Colorado and Utah.
even the thick-skinned Mexican when
he labors in the irrigated bottom lands
has to protect his hands and face with
gloves and wells. Travellers assert that
at certain seasons Alaska is fairly
alive with mosquitoes.
Florida has fewer of these pests
