Historic India. Ravages of White Ants. Beams Eaten Out.

An unusual "natural history" postcard from Tucks.

[Original caption] Ravages of White Ants: beams eaten out. The insect tribes of India may be said to be innumerable. The heat gives incredible activity to noxious and troublesome insects including Moths and Ants of the most destructive kind. It must have been a great army of the latter to have made such inroads on the solid beams in the picture. [end]
