A small lot of American moleskins secured by the Biological Survey, U. S., Department of Agricul- ture, was prepared and made up by an expert furrier who pronounced them in every respect equal or supe- rior to European skins. It seems likely, therefore, that a new industry amounting to many thousands of dollars annually might be developea in this country. Five Groups of Moles, In this country there are five rec- ognized groups of true moles, two of which are to the Pacific coast and three are dis- tributed over the section east the one hundredth meridian extending from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. In the latter districts and in the greater part of Pennslyvania, New York and New England the com- mon mole occurs with the star nosed mole and Brewer's mole. The mole 18 so seldom seen, even by those who are familiar with work, that it is often confused with other small creatures, pafticularly the shrew, the mole or meadow mouse, and the pocket gopher. However, it can be readily distinguished by its stout, short, front limbs ending in broad, rounded hands with palms turned outward. It has a rather elongated body, close plushlike fur, a pointed snout, and a short tail. Neither eves nor ears are in evidence. It is a creature of strictly subter- ranean habits. confined the other of Moles Distasteful, It is believed commonly that the mole works only at regular periods each day but direct observations tak- en in late summer and fall fail to substantiate the theory. The moles are distasteful and seldom eaten by domestic cats and dogs which have learned to catch them. Hawks ana owls take small toll from the mols | tribe, as an examination of the stom- ach contents of over 2,000 of these birds disclosed the remains of but thirteen moles, five of which haa been eaten by the red-tailed hawk, four by the red-shouldered hawk, ana the broad-winged hawk, the barred owl, the great gray owl, and the screech owl. From an examination of the stom- ach contents of 200 moles taken in all months of the year it was found that earthworms and white grubs constitute the bulk of the food. Beetles and their larvae, spiders, cen- tipedes, cocoons and puparia also form a part of the diet. Seed coats of corn, wheat, oats and peanuts have been seldom found in stomachs ot the moles. Complaints Frequent. Complaints of damage or depreda- tions by moles are frequent ana in- sistent. However, in very many cases | a thorough investigation would show that the smaller rodents which fol- low the mole’s runways are responsi- ble for the damage to corn and other cultivated seed products that grow under ground. When it is desirable to destroy the mole the trap will be found to be the most efficient means. So far ah experiments undertaken with the ob- ject of finding an acceptable poison bait have given negative results, as the very nature of the animal's food makes it difficult to secure a satisfac- tory substitute for live worms, grubs and insects. Moreover, the little ani- mal seems to be shrewd and quick to sense the danger in poisonous sub- stances. There are a number of excellent mole traps on the market, most ot which will give good results if prop- erly set. There are the harpoon, the scissor-jaw and the choker types. Harpooning traps are designed to by spring-driven spikes. The scissors-jaw traps are intended to be set astride the runway to grasp the mole firmly when he attempts to pass in either di- rection, and the choker trap has a get of wire 100ps that encircle the burrow when the trap is set, All three types are designed to be sprung by the same sort of mechanism, a trig- ger pan resting on a depressed por- tion of the mole ridge in such a way as to be lifted when . the animal its, | PwEST QuaLITY PROPOSE STANDING NATIONAL COMMITTEE Plan Pmscm—cd—mirfikinu Practical Step Toward Universal Peace. NV S 80.—A Dr. Bates political economy Mohonk Lake, May joint address by John Clark, at Columbia university, and Sir George Paish, editor of the London Statist, was read by Dr. Clark at the Lake Mohonk conference on international arbitration here yesterday.

There might be no guarantee against war, but the step now called for was the creation of a mechanism by which the general Interest of the whole of mankind shall be protected. “The chief question which we need to bring before the next Hague con- terence,” they said, “is how the gen- eral interest can best be conserved. A standing committee of the powers would be a potent instrumentality for conserving it. It should call its meet- ings from time to time, whenever the general interest is affected by a con- ference between the powers. The function of such a committee would not be confined to averting war. The elaborate network of business rela- tions that tie the countries together vill afford the interest to be immedi- ately and constantly guarded through periods of peace, as well as the su- preme reason for averting ik REAL Report of Property Transfer: During Present Week.
