an inveatiuation, aay the rocent freeze

TonueBUii May It will take a cold snap
tliut will freeze tlie Krouiul at least three
inches deep to destroy tlie chrysalis of
thi tent. The worm penetrated the
ground to depth of two Indie before
going into the pupue state, and nn less
a bard freeze comes that will kill tlie
germ of life In theue pupae in their sub
terranean retreats, they will hatch out
as a larire moth next sprinu, which will
cover vegetables with eggs, that will, in
turn, baton out into the army worm
ready to imtko sad havoc of everything
green. C. V. Piper, entomologiet atMie
Pullman Agricultural College, in Wash
ington, ia making a special study of this
pent witli a view of aticertHining how
agriculturists can best meet it inroads
on crop. - The chance of tbe pupae
surviving through the winter are alto
gether too good for the anxious farmer,
ita free ws usually follow snow, and the
ground beneath this warm blanket ia
rarely frozen over an inch deep. On
this account Mr. Tonneson and others
who have eiven tlie matter thoueht are
of tlie opinion tliat the worms will be
well housed during tlie coming winter
and will make their appearance next
summer with ravenous appetite and
plenty of bustle.
New Plan for Assessing.
State Senator Geo rue 0. Brownell ha
prepared a bill to be introduced at the
next session of tlie- Legislature, provid
ing for the election of District Assessor
in the voriou Counties to take tbe place
of the present County Assessors. The
Din provide that these Assessor shall
be elected at the general election in
June, at the same time other County
otneer are elected; also that at toe
meeting of the County Court in Janu
ary, and whenever thereafter it shall be
deemed advisable, as many assessment
district within each County a the
County Court ibail deem convenient,
necessary and proper, shall be estab
lished. The appointment of officers
shall also be left to the discretion of the
Court. District Assessora ahail possess
the lame power, authority and preroga
tive, and perform the same duties, a
are now exorcised and performed by the
County Assessors. The bill will require
that the district Assessor be elected for
term of two vears and that his term of
office shall begin on the first Monday in
January. The reason that tbe bill pro
vides (or the election of district Instead
of precinct Assessor ia done so that the
let will conform with the requirements
of the Slate Constitution. But this bill
will verv likely encounter landslide.
and be unfortunate enough to be be
neath the whole thing. There i one
feature about this bill which will recom
mend it to the noliticiana. at least: It
create that many more offices, wbich,
to some people, will heartily recom
mend the measure. And there may be
other virtue in it, too. The measure
wtli very likely be freely discussed,
