C. W. Hodson,. Who: Previously
Called County Board's; Attention
to Pest, Sends Communication.
A question thought definitely settled
by the board of county commissioners
that of the Innumerable nests of alleged
tent caterpillars ' infesting the trees
throughout the county reopened with a
bang at a recent board meeting upon
receipt of a communication from C. W.
Hodson. who had previously called at
tention to the pests. Mr. Hod son's first
communication was referred to the state
horticultural board, which declared the
tent caterpillars were not tent caterpil
lars at all, but something else fairly
harmless. Time and patience and four
other certain Insects, known enemies ef
the caterpillars; would presently
attack the caterpillars and rout them
completely. The state horticulturists
further averred that Mr. Hodson's cater
pillars only destroyed the leaves within
the tents and that the damage done.
therefore, was negligible. ; They ' object
ed, .toev to, declaring war 'at this, time;
on the ground! of. the high cost of belli-'
cose operations. . : t", ; ,
- "What would the horticulturists think,"
Mr, Hodson demands to the excess of
his scorn. if a caterpillar tent were to
cover an entire tree and the leaves within
were devoured by the state officials'
harmless pests?" "What would they
think." he repeats, "If a whole forest
were to be so covered?"
The state officials have not as yet
answered. Mr. Hodson's questions, but
It Is understood from an unofficial
though thoroughly reliable source that
they are waiting calmly, in their bomb
proof shelter on the ground floor of the
courthouse for reinforcements from their
allies, the four friendly enemy Insects.

Wonderful success attends the tour

the loan of a belt and gas mask taken
from a captured German officer by
Major Harry T. Lewis, with the Fifth
machine gun battalion of the Second
division. A. E. F. The. belt is adorned
with a heavy brass buckle- bearing the
