The Balance of Life
New York Times

In 1880 either an airplane or a French destroyer,
which had been assigned to assist airtransporta
ton company to develop flying route the
Southern Atlantic, carried alien mosquito Anophe-
les gambiae, from Dakar West Africa to Natal Bra
zl And now within a radius of 200 miles of Natal
80 percent of the population stricken with malaria
and unable to till the soil work the salt beds appeals
to the government for relief 1t is the story of the
chnch bug cotton cushion scale, Hessian fly, gypsy
moth, wooy root-louse, hop aphis sugar-beet leaf
hopper grapevine flea-beetle, coddling moth Japa-
nese beetle and corn borer told again. a story of a
pest unwittingly introduced into new land by man
himself in the regular course Of trade. Only this
time human life and not crops at stake.
In his report of gambaes ravages Mr. Raymond
Fosdick president of the Rockefeller Foundation,
paints the winged invasion of Brazil with proper
regard to its dramatic elements This is just as
truly if a fleet OF airplanes had scared Natal
and the surrounding country and dropped bombs.
There is nothing spectacular about the conflict. No
screaming shells, terrific explosions that toss up
fountains of dirt chatter Of machine guns. Only
the sudden fever that strikes a and pins him
a bed from which he does not always rise again.
Bacteriologists match their wits and their science
against the sure instinct of a branless insect
Another chapter is written in the saga that re-
counts the endless struggle OF against the wilder
and his effort change the environment to suit
himself VIII he succeed in Brazil again? Probably.
And yet biologists cannot help wondering what the
end may be- specifically in Brazil but the world
Plant is ptted against the creature that feeds
it, beast against insect parasite against host germ
against flesh Nature is in state of delicate equili
brium In the struggle for survival creatures seek
environment only to set the scales oscating until
at last they balance again The most predacous OF
all animals the that has done to upset the
balance, is himself 1t is beginning to dawn upon
him that natures plan may not be ruhessy destroyed

seeking ways do advertising within the cost
budget which their sales permit
Wilkes-Ba merchants efforts to develop sub
sttutes for newspaper advertising not attempt
to discredt newspapers force lower rates There
was nothing wrong with the newspapers nor with
their rates The plight of the wilkes Barre publishers
was not pleasing to local retailers.
Frank Burnside, an executive of the largest de-
partment store in Wilkes-Barre spoke frankly to the
members Of the National Retail Dry Goods Association
assembled in convention in York in late January.
1889
Here some extracts from Mr. Burnsdes talk
I'VE in Wilkes-Barre are still convinced that the
newspaper with paid circulation is head and shoulders
The best medium for department store advertising.
Il would not be fair if I left you with the idea
that we are altogether pleased with the situation (en-
forced use of shoppers The biggest loss as mer
chants have suffered the suspension of the papers
probably the loss in morale which has been felt by
the entire community Ugly rumors arise and spread
like wildfre without newspapers it is practically inn
possible to check outrageous gossip however pre-
posterous And then the social life of the community
slowed to a stop
Aside from these considerations there is one big
fault with our Shopping Bulletin as compared with
the regular newspaper and that is its lack of fex-
bilty We are forced TO work considerably farther in
advance 1t still takes us full day and half to
make distribution in fair weather and that natur-
ally takes some of the punch out of response It
does not lend itself highly promotional activities.
THE cost of the actual distribution is high
"On a 12-page basis the cost per page is little
less than twice as much we were paying per page
in our most expensive daily"
