WHAT TO ARE WORTH. They Are the Greatest of Ali Ex- terminalors of IOSects. Science effete a new solution for the bug problem. It is to employ in its prefessional capacity, so to speak the. toad -the ordinary hop - toad o the field anci garden -as an insect destroyer. • In this beainess the humble toad is unequalled by any other living animal, He is the greatest bug ex- terminator ip the world. It is eta tirely practicable to -utilize his ser- vices on an extensive scale, em- ploying him systematically as an elly to keep in cheek the insects which levy an annual tax of more than $8,000,000 upon our agricul- tural resourees. There is no reason why the farm- ers of the country should not hatch and rear their own supply of toads for local service. With a pond or even as small pool insured against drying up during late spring, the creatures will breed of their own accord in any desired numbers up to the liniit of the food supply avail- able in the shape of insects, But one thing absolutely essential is that they shall be protected against their natural enemies, and by no means the least destructive of their enemies are small boys, who through mere thoughtlessness kill toads whenever they get a chance. It is estimated that an average toad is worth to the farmer $5 a year for the cutworms alone which it destroys. But this is only one item. The amount a toad will eat is astonishing. A large specimen has been known to devour a hun- dred rose beetles at a single meal. One toad needed seventy-seven myriapods-the common household centipede -to satisfy his appetite, another fifty-five army worms, and yet another sixty-five gypsy moth eaterpillars. Still another toad was seen to eat thirty-five large, full-grown celery worms in. three hours, while another accepted eighty-six flies fed to him in less thadten minutes. 'It is a common thing when the occupants of an ants' nest are swarming and the insects are emerging in large numb era, to see an enterprising toad sit at the en- trance of the burrow and snap up every ant that comes out. The slaughter he. accomplishes under such eircumstances is frightful. But of course Most ants are not recog- nized as ineects injurms to man; and the toad tinqueelfonably des- troys soine species which are benefi- cial to the farmer. Upon the whole he is immensely useful, devouring countless numbers/of the very worst bug foes -of the cropes-Technical World. LAST STAND FOR War in Tripoli Cementing Erst- while Warring Tribes. An Algiers correspondent sum- marizes as followe the situation which is slowly crystalizing in Northern Africa: "The Italian invasion of Tripoli- tania is cementing and unifying the erstwhile warring tribal factions as had no other influence in modern tines. Although the Turks are yielding, and must eventually cassis. tnlate, it Will be a military capitu- lation only. A roving Arab popu- lation more than a million strong is coming day by day to regard the ,Ottoman dynasty as the last stand of resistance against European per- ,iossiti c rre secution of their race and their re- ligd by the reverses suffered. in Tripoli the MahOmrctetan religi- ous ohiefs are intent upon arousing the Arab and.Berber peoples of the entire ooast of Africa to a 'holy war' upon the European residents of not only Tripdli, but Algeriaretn.d Tunis. '"A steady fillibustering traffic in rifles and,ammunition is being eon - ducted into the south of Tripoli- tania. All manner of guns --some new, but most of them old and quite in need of repair -are being dispatched to the scene of the cot - filet. "The significant phase of this traffic is that while money enters into it and affords the usual oppor- tunities for dishonesty among the tribal cliiefs and merchants, a, uni- fied religious zeal is impelling the poorer classes to facilitate the pas- sage of the arms and is succesefullY imposing their -siecrecy and often their •cormi-vance at falsehood and misrepresentation to the European officials.

THE 1VATER OF THE SEA. 1141e and Green Are Not the:Only 'Colori Observed in the Sea. Why the color of the different oceans varies, from the emerald green of arctic waters to the azure, yellow and dull red of other seas, is thus explained in an article in the Marine Journal: The blueness of sea -water is in constant ratio to its saltness,' In the tropics the tremendeus evapora,- tion-indueed by the blazing sun eauses the water to be much salter than it is in higherslatitudes. For aboilt thirty degrees north and south of the equator the waters are of an exquisite azure, Beyond these latitudes the blue changes to green, and in the Arctic and Ant- arctic oceans the greens are almoet as vivid as the tropical blues. The extraordinary blueness of the Mediterranean has two causes. -Few large rivers of fresh water run into this sea, and, moreover. the Mediterranean is virtually land- locked, and exposed to a. powerful sun, so:that evaporation is rapid. By. -actual test the waters of the Mediterranean are heavier and salter than those of the Atlantic. In January, 1909, a river of yel- low water three miles wide was ob- sowed running parallel with the Gulf Stream. It stretched from Cape Floride to Cape Hatteras, and its color was undoubtedly due to some tremendous sub -marine up- heaval, probably volcanic. Again„ nine years ago, the sea, turned almost black off a large part of the California coast. The whole of Santa Cruz Bay assumed this extraordinary inksf hue, and fishing came abruptly to an end. The dark- ness iseems to have been caused by millions of the tiny animalcules known as whale food, The dull reddish tint that has given the Red Sea its nanse has a similar cause. The water becomes full of micro- scepic algae -tiny weeds. The Yellow sea ofeChina is sup- posedao .owe its -color to the flood of muddywater that its great river ponrsinto it. But there again liv- ing organisms are responsible for the peeuliar tint. Occasionally, for some cause yet undisbovered, great areas of the ocean turn milk -white, In March, 1964, a Japanese merchant vessel, steaming at night between Hong- kong and 'Yokohama, ran into a snow-white sea. It was not an opaque phospherescent surfaxe, but an expanse of pure ,snow-white that dazzled the eyes, The phenome- not lasted kr six hours. — "What does your husband like Lor his breakfast?"

THE COW'S 110W She Acted When Site Could Not Reach the Corn. Mr. La,tiraer was laughing at the silly fear that a superstitious neigh- bor had of ghosts, when his son Ralph spoke up. "Cows are afraid of glosts,"the said. - ' "Nonsense, son, nonsense!" "Well, father, yon come down to the barn -lot with me and I will prove it to you right now." So Mr. Latimer went, unbelieving, but curious to see eiliat ths bey was go- ing to do. Stationing his father round the corner of the barn, where he could see without being seen. Ralph took an ear of corn in the shuck -such an ear. as a cow loves to munch - and tied a fine fish -line thirty feet long to the butt. Then gettin'g in- side' the crib, he threw the ear of corn out into the barn -lot, where Beauty Spot, the family cow, could see it. She walked up eagerly, opened her mouth and thrust out her tongue fax the treat; but jest as she thought she had it, Ralph jerked the corn five or six feet from her. Raising her head, 13eauty Spot studied that, ear of corn for a mom- ent thoughtfully. Its action was unexpected, but reflection seenied to convince her that it might have blown or rolled away .from her, and she advanced once mare. This time she approached it senaewhat ginger- ly. Again she lowered her head and reached for it, and again the ear swiftly slid five or six feet out of her resell. ''Whoof !" snorted the cow, Her eyes dilated with wonder: She held her head half -lowered, and gazed wildly at that corn. Still she held her ground. She studied the strange ear intently for a minute,. The thing was certainly lying still now.; surely it was.. an ear of corn. She resolved not to be a coward, With wide eyes, distended nostrils andlowered heed, she went forward the third time, very case tiously. ' The ear lay perfectly 'still. Her confidence g,rew ; her mouth open, ed; out went her tongue to lick in the corn -and away it jumped again. • The cow sprung high into the air with a piteous bellow, whirled, and, With flying tail and swinging head, belted for the open gate and the pasture, • Ralph came out, roaring_ with laughter his father, too, was laughing, , "Silly beast," said Mr. Latimer, "Oh, I don't know," said Ralph, "How would you feel if ,you went to shake hands with a man and suddenly found he was tee feet away from you?
