FIRE CAUSED BY
L
After weeks of comparative Inac
tivity tho ftro department responded
to three alarms yestorday, two of tho
blaxes being caused by tlue tires, and
the third by the explosion ot a lamp
In an incubator. The latter fire
caused the only damage and roasted
to a turn a number ot rabbits and
chickens. Two ot the tires were on
Beatty street. '
' The first alarm ot tho day was
sounded at 1:15 p. m., being caused
by a flue fire at the Shutts residence
on Beatty stroet. No damage. The
next alarm came at 2:30 p. m. and
was caused by a flue ftro at 2 2 North
Front street, in the building occupied
by the Eads Transfer company office.
No damage was done but on account
of the location In tho business dis
trict thore was much excitement tor
a short time.
The last fire and the only serious
one ot the three came at 7:15 p. m,
and resulted in the destruction ot a
frame shed on Beatty street, rented
by L,. E. Bean as a rabbit and chicken
rearing shed. It was . undoubtedly
caused by the explosion of the lamp
In the incubator, and before the
flames were extinguished the shed
was practically destroyed and a num
ber ot rabbits and chickens had por
lshed in the flames.

1 7 YEAR LOCUST
N EASTERN STATES
WASHINGTON. Mar. 13. Great
swarms ot the 17-year locust will In
fest the United States in late May
and early June this year, which Is
expected by scientists to be one ot
the worst "locust years" on" record,
Exports ot the department ot agricul
ture, however, see nothing alarming
in the prospect.
Onco regarded superstltlously as a
harbinger ot disostor, tho periodical
cicada, popularly known as the 17
year locust because It comes at long
Intervals, Is seen now to be no more
than an ordinary non-poisonous In
sect pest, which can do little damage
It proper precautions are tukon. The
chief Injury Inflicted by the insect
consists almost wholly in chiseling
grooves in the branches of trees for
depositing eggs. Young fruit trees
sometimes are killed, but tho damage
genorally soenis greater than it actu
ally Is; according to entomologists,
and popular alarm Is out ot propor
tion to the rea danger.
Later, when the Insects are ready
to begin laying, spray young fruit
trees with whitewash.
The department of agriculture has
kept close check for many years of
all the broods ot locusts and can
forecast accurately when and where
the pests will appear. Large regions
will be affected this year where one
brood appeared 17 years ago and in
other regions which - suffered 13
years ago, the Btates including Ala

ware, Georgia, Illinois,- Indiana,
Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, -Massachusetts,
Michigan, New Jersey, New
York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsyl
vania, South Carolina, Tennessee,

Belief that the 1919 brood will be
exceptionally large is based on the
