We find by examining the wheat
and oats that the heads and top blades
of each are almost covered with small
blue lice, which seem to be feasting
heavily on both wheat and oats. We
cannot tell with any degree of certainty
what will be the result OF these little
pests, but we fear they will prove to he
quito disastrous to late wheat. We
cannot tell whether or not this insect is
general but in this locality they are
quite numerous. The wheat prospect
mas hitherto been qiiie fine and IS still
looking well ANA We hope will not be
seriously damaged by the lice.
