March 2J.-Tht there is a great economy loss to the public of the United States through insects that carry disease is shown by Dr. L. 0. Howard of the bureau of entomology in a pamphlet just is' sued by the Department of Agricul ture. He declares for instance, that the development of the whole state of New Jersey has been seriously re tarded by mosquitos in sections which are admirably adapted to dairy farm' ing in other respects, but this busi ness had to be given up owing to the evils of mosquitos on the cattle, Many rich lands of the South, cannot be developed as they would be, he says, on account of the mosquito. Dr. Howard "declares that typhoid is not a national scourge as tt has been called, but rather a "national reproach," or a national "crime" for its main source, the fly evil, can be controlled. Dr. Howard says that many dis eases are transmitted by insects. Mellow fever is carried by one brand of mosquito and malaria by another. The common house fly is an active agent in the dissemination of typhoid fever. Bubonic plague is carried by fleas. The so-called spotted fever of the northern Rocky Mountains is trans mitted by a species of tick just as Texas fever is given to cattte by the southern cattle tick. NEWJTO-DAY The Man Who Eats.

For I.OS ANGELES, March 23.--Near-ly three days have passed since the baloon "America" went up from Tournament Park in Pasadena, with Captain A. E.

Searching parties that left Pasadena and this city yesterday are now in various places in the mountains and at daylight today began a search of the accessible parts of the ranges and canyons in the hope of finding the members of the party, or at least of learnincr something regarding their location. All night long exhaustive efforts were made to learn something about the probable location of the baloon and men and messages were received from every point beyond the mount ains where a landing could have been made, but no information of any kind was gathered. The storm had ceased the weather moderated during the night and there was still hope that the rescuers might be successful in reaching the men before they perish ed, even if they were wandering. in the mountains. At least 30 men are now following up the canyons and crossing flats between the mountain ranges in the search. Subscribe to The Morning Astorian. delivered by carrier.
