In Quick Quaker the pats are cut

THE INSECT MENACE
Savant Thinks Mans Domination OF
Earth Threatened by Aggressive
Insect Life


The great war OF the world was
described and pictured and its in
creasug Wrulence foretold by MIR.
Iefroy at the Royal Institute, Lon
don, in a lecture as grim as II was
economically important. says the
Daily Mail. The point was that man
s. not as dominant as he thinks he is.
The real dominance belongs TO the
insect.
The lecturer gave Il examples,
all more or less blood curdling. His
first instance is the boil weeyil,
which attacks the cotton plant. No
Kind or sort Of preventive has been
found after 20 years work, and It's
r1yaEcs are now OF such dimensions
that cotton growing is being given
up wholesale I'm the United states.
Nor IS the cotton wceVl the worst
insect. Mans most threatening enc
my in the world appears to bc the
Argcutiue ant. II reached England
ig 1915, and has spread half over the
world. especially Spain, since 1897.
This minute insect has eaten babies
iu their cradles in the Argentine.
has completely wiped out the birds
OF Madeira by eating their nestlings,
and Is running both the orange and
coffee haryests In many places.
u often kills the plants. not di-
roD'ly, but by encouraging other in
scots. especially green fly, which II
keeps as man keeps COWS. II even
builds houses FOR them, acts as doc.
tor 10 them, and defends them from
enemies At the same time the ant,
which is omnivorous, carries and
sprgals many Of the worst human
diseases II may, perhaps, find a
corgou.al home IN London.
Mr., Lefroy said many startling
things
The flea has caused 1000. 900
deaths IN India by carrying plague.
The h0uscflv kills 1000 children
q year ina England by imparting in
fant diarrhea; and flies are as
numerous as they were 800 years
aso. They carry typhoid, enteric,
cholera and dyscntcry.
The system Of sanitation in Meso-
potamia was ideally designed for
breeding flies.
number OF women are on the

Of the prevalence of that almost in
visible house mite which recently

The beetle that destroyed the oak
roof OF Westminster han is at work

and old buildings.
The louise is the cause Of typhus
