THE REASON.
There’s a mad dog loose in the world,
my lads.
And he goes by the name of Hun;
A foul and traitorous beast, my lads,
And he calls for a place in the Sun.
A mocking shame to the great white j
race,
No viler thing can be,
A desert jackal can look in his face. \
And claim to be better than be.
The raiding Reds of the days now gone
Were gentlemen everyone
When measured against this spawn of
Hell
That yelps for a place in the Sun!
A place in the Sun for that, my lads,
A place amdist men to be!
Why! the lowest depth of the darkest
Pit
Is too bright for such as he!
So our clean-soul’d men have risen,
my lads,
Have risen from hill and plain,
And will rid the earth of this raven
ing hound,
Caring nothing for loss or gain.
He has lapped the red drink that he
loves best
Whose dregs are disgrace and
shame,
’Till all the breed of his pack, my
lads,
Are dishonored that bear his name
So it’s up, my lads! Oh, he’s going
weak,
And he knows that his race is run
And we’ll get his pelt, though it’s
mangy, lads.
The pelt of the beast called Hun!

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 13.—Much
alarm has been caused by the appear
ance of the pink boll-worm and the
boll-weevil in the Laguna district
near Torreon, Coahuila, where, it is
stated, that the cotton production has
suffered seriously, or to the extent
of 35 per cent. The whole cotton re
gion was recently inspected by Au
gust Dusck, of the department of ag
riculture in Washington, who found
that only the Laguna district was af
fected, and advised the government
that the only effective method which
has given the desifed results was not
to plant cotton in the affected dis
trict for at least two years, and if
possible for three years. He stated
that he was sure that the worm bad
been Imported from Egypt when the
last shipment of seed came from that
country for use in Mexico.
Mr. Busck also advised that the re
maining seed either be fumigated or
; destroyed to avoid further infection
| in other districts, and that for three
' years, the soil In the affected dis
• trict could be used to planting corn,
wheat and other cereals. Pastor Rou
aix, minister of agriculture, has is
! sued a circular advising the farmers
around Torreon to diversify their
crops and avoid a more serious out
come of the present situation.
