POTATO AND WHEAT CROPS SUFFERING.
DAMAGE DONE BY THE COLORADO BEETLE AND
HEssIAN FLY.

Farmers in New-Jersey and Long Island are
becoming alarmed about the potato crop, on account OF
the ravages of the potato bug" Last year there was
great deal OF Paris green used and farmers thought
that the beetles were nearly extermnated Complaint
was made that the Paris green was absorbed by the
vine and gave bad taste to the potato.
MANY farmers therefore concluded to dispense with
Paris green this year At the beginning OF the year the
hugs we're very few but in the early part OF last month
the beetles suddenly appeared in great numbers and
paris green was again resored 10 TO kill them small
red bug which frat appeared last year is agan visible
tins season. II seems to master the Colorado
beetles and kills them, but does great damage TO the
vine Between the two insects considerable damage has
been done to the potato crop this Many OF the
hills OF potatoes entirely destroyed the vines hay,
mo rotfed away In the hIlls which appear in good
condition some OF the potatoes very poor and only
about two-thirds OF the regular size.
The wheat crop in Northern New-Jersey is said be
almost failure this year. account OF the ravages OF
the Hessan n.y. it being estimated that nineteen out OF
are very promising but the corn throughout this entire
section is very backward.
