Reports from towns in Dorth western Pennsylvania Indicate that we, too, may expeot a visitation from the pestiferous "Army worm." From all parts of West ern Pennsylvania come stories of the presenoe of this pest in alarming num bers. On Sunday tbe army worm, thousands strong, invaded Tltusvllle. Tbe army worm ia a kind of Cut worm which ia present every year, but doea not commonly appear in such numbers, and no more destructive pest to garden pro duce and grain ia known in this section ot the country, Tbey bave been known to destroy a field of grain in a single night. Tbey bsve been kept back by plowing furrow with the vertical aide from them ao tbey can not climb It easily, and then dragging a log behind a horse ridden by a boy. Of course, such measures are en tirely Impractical on lawna. A good method Is to mix one part ol arsenate of lead or Paria green with about thirty pans of sny kind of powder, such aa slaked lime, ashes, road dust, or even flour, and dust it very lightly over tbe infested lawn. It requires only a very light dusting to get ahead of the pest. The Venango License Question. Tbe State Superior Court on Wednes day banded down tbree decisions on ap peals from lower courts, relative to tbe granting of liquor licenses. In each of the cases the decision of the lower court was upheld. Two of tbe cases, one Irom Venango and tbe other from Indiana oounty, related to the refusal by tbe judges to grant licenses. Tbe third case was from Clarion county, and sought to reverse thejudgna of tbat court on two hotel licenses which be bad granted. Tbe decisions would appetr to be contradic tory, but they uphold in each case the principle that tbe granting of licenses rests entirely with tbe discretion of the judge; ho alone shall decide to whom tbey may or may not be granted. Whether tbe Legislature In framing the law In tended to place Ibis power in tbe bands of the judges, or whether tbe principle has been read into tbe Act, does not appear in tbe report of the finding. Public opinion and tbe manner in which the law ia construed by tbe lower oourt will probably differ. To most peo ple it will appear as putting too much power in the bands of a single person. It ia an unpleasant position in which to place a judge, as, if we bave read tbe re port of tbe finding aright, bis aentiment In tbe matter may legally control bis aotiona. Oil City Derrick.
