A COSTLY PEST,

A CU8HAx FNSAs
 What harm insects can do is strikingly illustrated by the condition of the wine making industry in France. Some facts just made public show that the average an- nual yield in the four years from 1875 to 1878, inclusive, was 1.250, 900, 900 gallons, while the annual average yield of the four years from 1885 to 1888, inclusive, was 604, ,- 900 ,000 gallons, showing falling off in this interval of more than 50 per cent. This change has been largely, if not wholly, due to the ravages of the phylloxera, the little insect said to have been originally imported from America, which, by devouring the roots of the vine, either kills it or prevent its pro. dustivity.
 A few years ago France produced more wine than all of the rest of Europe put to- gether, but now the annual average pro- duction is only little more than that of Italy or Spain. Last year there were nearly 25O, ,0OO, ,OOO gallons of wine imported into France. Of this 160. .OOO,Oe0 gallons came from Spain, and about 22,000,000 gallons each from Italy, Portugal and Algeria. In 1875 the importations of wine were only 6,o0O,OO gallons, while the expectations were more than s1,OO0,00 gallons. The actual loss to the country by the ravages of the phylloxera is one which has been vari- ously estimated. The vineyards cover 4.27 per cent. of the surface of France, and are one of it's chief sources of agricultural wealth. In the matter of exportation, in years past wines have ranked next to silk stufs and woollen stuffs, sometimes showing an expor- table value of $50, 100000 per annum. This includes some very high priced wines, but it is probable that, on the average, the loss to the agriculturist of France in the differ. ence between their vintages of twelve, thir- teen and fourteen years ago, as compared with those of recent years, would be equiva- lent to quite $200, ,000, 600 per annum. Anybody who can discover way to de- feat the pestiferious phylloxera can get { large reward from the French government Just now the indications are that he will con. tinue to triumph.
