MEAsrRISG-woRN REMEDr.-The magnificent elm
trees which line the public streets Of ana
have given the popular title to that citykseee lew
years since apparently doomed to destruction ~ the
attacks Of insects similar to tisvs which are such
nuisance in our parks and along the sidewalks. An
intelligent entomoogist of that city, however, alter
stuGyirg the habits Of the insects devised the simpie
remedy Of placir cupke girdes filled with whale OIL
around each trunk tap TO arrest the female moth
in her upward progress in Fall to deposit her eggs.
In attempting from the outer rim OF 70
the body Of the above, the moths naturally feinto

sroyed the first season, aud in the course Of two OF
three years the pest seems have been entirely aoated

lie remedy is so simple and in the case Of New
Haven has been so very eficacious that II Is to be
hoped it may be adopted not only in Brooklyn, but
also in New-York without delay.
We think il quite possible that not only these shade
tree pests but the curcuOs on our plum and cherry
trees and ether injurious insects, might be, to great
extent, abated by the common English House-S1ar-
row, q tardy domestic bird, which might be imported
in any desired quantity and at merely nominal cost
