One of tlH. ,st powerful and for midable insects In the Southwest is the agricultural ant of Texas, observes a naturalist. These busv creat ores .u-e regular fanners, ami t'vir hemes are marvels of arcliiiecturai skill and strength. Think of a house from rj to la feet high, built by a lit lie aid, and which is so strong and. well suppnrted that cattle and buffaloes can walk over it and yet not crush in Ibis wonderful dome. ' It is said that - If a horse, in pro portion: to his size, could leap as far as a Hen, that In one jump he would go clear around liie world. Xov, II' a man constructed a house according to the same proportions of an ant's domicile, it would be more than a mile high. These agricultural aids, next to a bee, are the most industrious crea tures on earth. .They sow. roan and garner just like farmers; and during (he warm season lay by sullicieul slore fur winter's use.
