THAT KEEP FAH1.SS PROFESSOR M'GEE VISITS THE AGRI•• CULTURAL ANTS OF MEXICO. They Plant Eleid. saran -Aad neap Their I/arvest Regularly When the Seas .vu Arrives --Wide healon► to Which no Green Thing 1. Seen Except on Their Farina. Pro'essor W. J. McGee, of the gov- erutnent scientific corps, recently paid a visit to Borne very remarkable far- mers in Sonora, Mexico. These are the so-called agricultural ants, which plane fields of grain and regularly harvest their crepe. Upon the latter they de- pend wholly for food. In fact, if the crops should fail, they would perish of famine. On the other hand, the cereals which they grow have help specialized by cultivation, like the wheat and ric • of tin human husbandman and would quickly disappear if the attention of the insects was withdrawn. Thu fields of the farmer ants cover scores or square miles 111 Sonora,a large part of which is quite densely populated by them. 'Phuhome of a colony is marked ordinarily by a circular clear- ing from five to thirty feet in diameter, on which nothing is permitted to grow. This serves as a sort of parade end ex- ercise ground. Around the clearing is a ring of luxuriant u nt gri1B9 from three to twenty feet wide. 011 the seeds of this grass theinsects subsist,planti ug it every spring and garnering the crop in the autumn. Across the rings which sur- round the fort -niceties rue turnpikes a few inches wide, connecting farm with farm for many furlongs. In the region described there is prac- tically no vegetation except the grasses cultivated by these ants. The latter appear to keep down and exterminate all other plants. such Its cacti, grease - wood and mesquite. The plants natur- ally prevailing in that part of the coun- try are entirely absent from the most thickly -settled farming districts, Iu short, these insects have developed an art of agriculture peculiar to them- selves, have made conquest of the land for their needs, and have artificialized certain cereals as thoroughly- as maize and barley have been artilicialized by man. "Thus," says Professor McGee, "the rigorous environment of the desert has developed one of the most remark- able intelligences; and, incidentally, an animal and a plant have come to be mutually dependent upon each other for existence." The agriculture of these ants beems to be tar more externive in Sonora than in Texas, where their farming opera- tions have been exhaustively described by Henry C..McCook. Oil the flat' tablelands of the Lone Star State their farms are plentifully scattered. These, like those of Mexico, are mostly flat and circular clearings, from which commu- modern,[ _.�IYCln Mrs. Nowgurl (to daughter) -Good- ness me, Kitt; ! Don't stand there with your hands in your pockets in that way it lou don't know how ungentlemanly ooks 1 so that their fields may bo ready for Woofing in the sprine;. Resp ethq the nielillodo of plantifno adopted by the in. snots, no reliable observation§ have been matte up to date. All of the labor of whatever description is performed by th workers, who aro undeveloped fe- Hiitles The males do nothing, the sole purpose of their existence b.,ing to per- petuate the species. The developed fe- males are destined to become the mothers of future colonies. The developed females and the males have wings, while the work'•re possess none. The workers constitute• the bulk of the population, being divided into two classes. -workers major and wont• urs minor. The form r aro chiefly dis- tinguished from the latter by the fact that they have bigger heads. The males are bigger than the workers and 'smaller than the females. The average female is five-eighths of an inch long. The color of the farmer ant is thu'k brown. The tnales and developed fe- males do not go out of doors at all ex- cept for exercise and suubaths. I These ants always establish their colonies in places where there is unob- structed B1111 light, doubtless because shade would intertere with their fann- ing operations. If a tree grows up near them, they will cut off every 011 + of its leaved in early spriug. Th. , work only in the cool part of the day and when it is cloudy. About the 1st of December they retire into their habi- tations and appear to undergo a':ort of hibernation. Doubtless their stores of grain serve to provide tlfetn with fond during this period. In early spring, when it is sunny and waren, they come out and bunch themselves in balls as big as a man's fist. When fairly arous- ed to activity by the advancing season, they start in busily to clean up the clearing, removing all refuse and mak- ing everything. ready for the planting,. Their favorite cultivated plant is the familiar buffalo grass, nication is bad by roads with the sur- rounding cultivated herbage. In the center of each such clearing is a hole which serves as a gateway, opening into the subterranean formicary. There are several species of these ants, how- ever, and at least one of them constructs a conical mound, which takes the place of the clearing. So widely distributed aro the' farms that they are found in the very streets and gardens of Austin. At the time of the harvest ono or more of the roads leading to the formicary may be seen on any fine day to be thronged vtgtil work ors, marching to add fro in a double column, one going and ono cooling. The pathway is trod-- den rotden hard hy their feet. Those coming aro heavily laden, each carrying a seed. They do not gather the seeds troln the grass tops, but pick up those which have ripened and fallen. For dies° they search on the ground in the forest of grass stalks, feeling for them with their antennae. Having secured one the worker ant lifts it, adjusts the burden so as to be carried most easily and finds her way back to the road, along which she trots ihomeivard, finally disappear- ing through the gateway. Within the gate is a vestibule, from which a passage way leads downward at a slant to the rooms beneath. Some of these rooms aro nurseries for the rearing of the young of the colony, while others are granaries in which the seeds are stored. Usually the rooms aro shaped somewhat like a horseshoe, the walls and floors being neatly and smoothly finished with plaster, for which suitable earth is brought from above and made adhesive with the saliva of the insects. There is apt to be one gland storeroom two inches or so in height and three or four inches long, the other apartments being somewhat smaller. All of them aro formed with domes. The seeds before being stored in tilt) granaries, are husked. All refuse, in- cluding husks and imperfect seeds, is carried out and thrown outside the limits of the formicary. Nothing is permitted to remain on the clearing. Anything that falls upon it is cut to pieces and taken away. If a luckless tummblebug rolls its ball into the for- bidders territory it is driven away, or if it refuses to retreat is promptly killed. Tho workers possess very formidable stings, which are used with effect upon too inquisitive human beings. The poison seems to be quiet powerful, caus- ing a good deal of inflammation and sometimes nausea. Ilowever,the insects aro quite peaceful unless outrageously disturbed. In Texas the farmer ants also gather the seeds of crotons and of several species of weeds. After they have har- vested their grain in the autumn they carefully cut away all the dry stubble► OLD AGE. Iles It Really a Germ Like the Mumps or the Meneles A few years ago an Italian bacteriolo- gist proclaimed that he had discovered the `germ of old ago." The idea ‘17 118 scouted by all scientific men, but there may be something in it, after all. At any rate there seems to be good ground for believing that germs, if not a speci- fic germ, are at least one of the most important influences which bring on old age. It has long been known that the ptomains or toxic substances produced by microbes are capable of setting up various degenerative processes. De- generative changes in the joints, liver, the kidneys, dud other organs, have been directly traced to this cause. The writer has for sorno time held the opinion that the degenerative changes incident to advancing. ago are due to the same cause : namely, the toxins ab- sorbed from the alimentary canal. These toxins are constantly present in greater • or less quantity, according to the extent to which fermentative and putrefactive processes prevail in the stomach and intestines. These pro- cesses depend. first, upon the integrity ot the digestive processes in the indi• vidual. and, secondly, upon the charac- ter of 'the substances introduced into the aliineutary canal as food. . . These considerations suggest at once the thought that while all human beings must necessarily be constantly subject to the influence of toxic substances gen- erated in their own alimentary canal, and consequently must grow old and succumb sooner or later to the de- generative processes of old age, these processes may be greatly accelerated by subsisting upon a diet which favors the production ot toxic substances in the alimentary canal. If this theory is correct, we should ex- peet to find the greatest longevity among those animals and those men who subsist upon the simplest and purest diet, other conditions being equal. It would be impossible to find a sharper contrast than that which exists in this respeci`between carnivorous and vege- tarian animals. Contrast, for example, the dog, which grows old, becomes rheumatic and infirm in eight or ten years, with the donkey, which lives a u•eful life to 40 or 50 years, and the ele- phant, which is still active and useful at 100 years._ The sante is true among men. The greatest number of persons now alive above 100 years are to be found among the Russian peasants who rarely taste meat. These people have been practi- cal vegetarians for so many centuries - perhaps from the earliest ages -that anatomists have noted a distinct differ- ence in the length their alimentary canals as compared with those of the flesh eating Germans, whose ancestors were cannibals. Rheumatism in its protean forms is one of the most constant and distressing disorder of old age. Tho relation be- tween English roast beef and the gout and rlleiunatism, which prevail so ex- tensively among Englishmen, was clear- ly pointed out by that distinguished physician and essayist, J. Milner Fo- thergill, The above considerations, if not con- sidered absolutely conclusive, are cer- tainly worthy of thought. - Modern Medicine. Dual Language' He is a German, and the keeper of a saloon. He had been in America but a few short months, and consequently his knowledge of the English language is not great. It is no wonder, then, that he should make a few mistakes as to the interpre4ation of certain sounds ex- pressive of meaning in the language he has adopted.
