COME surprising facts have been
~ gathered with respect to the
mound making ants of the Allie
ghenies. McCook has measured some
mounds moro than thirty feet In cir

than three feet in height. But
around these there are many new
mounds in course of construction,
only 4 few inches in height. They
are found in groups, of which one
contains 1,7o0 mounds within space
of fifty acres. Their total popula-
ton is enormous. and each group of
mounds appears to constitute a com
munity--an insect kingdom or en-
pira,
