How Bug Saved Orange Trees.

A few years ago the orange trees in San
Ga brel valley were attacked by an insect
known as scale. So rapidly did the pest
propagate that within few weeks the
bark of the trees was white with them.
Drastic remedies were applied, but with
ont avail So serious was the outlook that
many of the growers were on the point of
cutting down their immense groves. One
day young man suggested n novel plan
for the speedy determination of the pest
He said that there existed in Australia a
species of lady bug which existed on in
sects that cling to trees. He received n
consignment of 80 of these bugs by the
next steamer One grower. who had TO-
600 trees and probably 100, 900, 900 600
scale on all of them bought eight of the
precious bugs and placed them to the best
advantage in his orchard. lie tells this
story:
"Three days after made the experiment
went into the grove. The trees were as
white rs ever with the pest told my
friend that thought his lady bugs fail
urc. lie advised me to he pat lent for, he
said, it WIS likely that the bugs were
breeding before making their onslaught
on til" scale, Three days later n.,ain Wis
tied the orchard and found the trees as
clean rs whistle Not one of the insects
WIS visible. Neither were the lady bugs.
Having finished their work they flew away,
and have not seen them since More
bugs were released in other orchards and,
in the course Of II mouth there was not an
orange tree in the valley afflicted by the
pest. We now keep stock of the bugs in
fand 50 that in case the scale returns wen
be reany to fight il again. The bugs sell
for so apiece. Bnt they are worth that
money and more, too, for they have saved
every orange tree in the country "--S;;n
