HOW TO KILL THE HOP LOUISE.
Tolt Grower on the Pests Growth-Lime

Tolt Grower on the Pests Growth-Lime
the Best Cure.
John Curry, who lives near Tolt. was in
the city Wednesday. Mr.. Curry has been
engaged for several years in raising and
curing hops. and has recently been study
ing the hop louise and experimenting
with view to discovering the best means
of getting rid of it. To PosT-INrELLIGES-
GER reporter he said:
Last year sprayed my hops ave times be-
gan early and sprayed late used an emulsion
consisting OF sixteen pounds whale oil soap, two
gallons kerosene and 100 gallons OF water.
noticed that after each spraying the lice were all
killed, butt was only few days before they be-
gan to work up again. saw the lice always be-
gan at the bottom Of vine and worked up, and
l think that one fact alone ought to prove that
the lice do not come from plum trees. for If
they did they would alight on the tops of the
vines and work down.
On the 18th OF last August observed the hrst
change in the hop louise, a. 1t began its trans
formation into grub.
Tho tail end grew lighter green. and soon
the four-legged louise had two more little short
grub legs Then 1t shed its two hind louise legs,
and, as the transformation proceeded, added
two more grub legs and shed its fore louise legs.
The grub added yet other legs until 1t had eight
legs. The body was about quarter of an inch
long, light green, in some cases straw color and
tinted light red. Finally the louise head was
gone and the transformation was complete.
The grub dropped of and then wiggled itself
into the ground. What goes on there
! have not fully determined, but / am
satisfied the grub is the source and
cause OF the new lice in the spring.
One of my neighbors who has five acres of
hop vines which are seven years old informed
me that they were nearly all dead. Upon ex-
animation we found the grubs in great num-
bers about the stalks and roots. They had been
feeding on the vines and killed them.
Wen, how do you propose to fight the louise
this Year, was asked.
have just bought 100 pounds of lime here in
Seattle, he replied, and propose to SOW my

for unless the lime is slaked it will
injure the young shoots. After it air.
