NEW LANDS AND SOURCES OF

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-New lands
to be cultivated, new sources OF en-
ergy to be developed and new wealth
to be created in the south constitute
the best hopes for the future OF the
nation declared Dr. Frederick L.
Hoffman, statistician OF the Pruden-
tal Insurance Company, before the
Southern Governors Conference.
The industrial south is watched
with amazement by those of the
north and west, who see their indus
tries migrating to other and more
promising fields" he said. He fore
saw tremendous possibilities for water
power development and lauded health
officials of the southern states for
their efforts in reducing mortality and
improving sanitary conditions OF the
territory.
Health Much Improved.
The change in southern health
conditions is nothing less than a rev.
elation," said Hoffman He discussed
in detail the successful effort to reduce
the deaths from yellow fever, typhoid,
malaria and hookworm.

strokes the aphid "a bit more, but an
iother drop is produced.
But these aphids are most hurtful
to plant life. The sap which they drink
is kept from performing its normal
purposes OF nourishing the plant
When enough aphids are on the plant
there is no sap LETT for its ordinary
uses. In this way ants, by protecting
aphids, injure man in his crop grow

Yet so interviewer is nature that an

eats inordinate quantities OF aphids.
She has been summoned, upon occa-

that were destroying them. She is, in
fact, becoming so web established as

as if for a time exposure. What they
were really doing was lying in wait
for some other insect-a bee perhaps.
When the bee came near there was a
flash and, 10, the mighty pincers OF
the mantis had done their cruel work.
Later in the summer, probably only
last week, the female mantis grew
tired of her effeminate husband, closed
her nippers on him and devoured him
at a single sitting.
There is a new world here in six
legged land, an insect civilization no
less interesting than that OF the Lii
liputians., 1t invites every CULVER
among us to fare afeld in the summer
time. With an insect Baedeker under
his arm he may find journey into
any globe or shady lot as interesting
and instructive as wandering among
the ruins of Rome or Athens.
