" ' More people speak English thm
' any other language now in use in
the civilized world, and the in
crease in the use of English is so
rapid that it may ultimately out
strip all the European languages
collectively. At the beginning of
the present century French stood
4 at the head of languages in general
use. Then 20 per cent of the peo
ple of Eprope and America spoke
French. Then followed in the
( the order named: Russian, 19 per
! cent? German, 18 percent; Spanish,
16 per cent; English, 12 per cent;
and Italian, 9 per cent. French

Increase of Insect l'ests.
Charles M. Weed discusses this
subject in the Massachusetts
Pioughniaii, and points out various
reasons for their more rapid spread
and iiicreaso than formerly. He
sayn:
"None of the evil effects of the
changes which modern civilization
has made upon the earth is morn
evident to the American fanner
than the increased difficulty of
saving his crops from the ravagi-s
of noxious insects ami parasitic
fungi. Many of us have heard
from eur fathers and grandfathers
of the apples which once grew iu
.abur.dance in yards ami along
highways, strangers alike to the
. ! 1 .1 .... 1 . I
couiing mom, l.iaggoi or scao, vne
luscious peaches free from worms
or rot; the plums unmarked bv
th curculio, ami the pears that
have yet to learn the secret of be
coming dwarfed, gnarly and crack
ed; cf the grapes that know not
how to rot, and the potatoes which
had neither been blighted nor
bitten by the Colorado beetle.
Now ail is changed; every crop has
fe8 that often gather the lion's
share of the harvest. The enemies
have come from the north and the
south, the east and the west, from j
Iurope and the islands of the sea, I
and in our own midst they have
flocked from the forest to the field,
deserting a wild plant for its culti
vated congener, or changing their
habits to conform to a new en
t vironment.
"This increase of noxious insects,
however, is the natural result of
the changed condition . of things.
Among the principal factors tend
ing toward it may be mentioned:
First, the massing of crops in
limited aras; second, the facilities
fjr transporting insects long dis
tances by vessels and railways
