Bad for the Farmers.

Potato bugs are ravaging Long Island farmers hot beds. Beetles, the parents of the potato bugs, that had slept in the beds all winter, awoke on the appear ance of spring, and settled on the ten der growth about them. They laid their eggs on the softest leaves. From the eggs were matched potato bugs, and they begun to devour the leaves on which they were matched. Taking the reporter to his hot beds, wherein were egg plants, Flatbush farmer uprooted a plant, whose leaves were pierced and withered, and peppered with bugs, and said "See how lively they are The potato bug eats farmer out of house and home, until it gets to be a perfect beetle. Then it dives into the earth, and stays nine days, probably getting ready to lay. When ready, the beetle comes out of his hole, and lights upon the youngest plants. On them it lays eggs, and then bobs away. Last June the beetles came upon us, and caused thousands of dollars loss by breeding upon the plants in the hothouses. I had egg plants enough to yield two hun dred pounds of seed, that was to sell to Philadelphia seedsman for $500 but the potato bugs ate all but $40 worth. They couldn't hurt the potato shoots, because they were ahout foot high. The beetles hung around all summer, crawling and jumping in the sun, and ir the fall burrowed in the earth. Farm CTS are setting out only half as much potatoes as usual, and are terribly afraid. In blowing, we turn up lots ot beetles. The ground is full of them. and as soon as real warm weather comes they will begin to hatch. .''-Neao York Se&u.
