The cochineal insect is a fat, dark.
spherical little creature looking like a
black currant, and with neither head, legs
nor tail to the casual observer, says Pear
sons Weekly. In fact he is so mani
mate that anyone may squash him be-
tween finger and thumb without any
quaims of conscience. He is nothing but
black currant sure enough, though the
bright carmine or lake exusion from his
for dye, is better color than the Juice OF
the currant 1t was the cultivation of
these pleasant little individuals which
more than a score of years ago. put no
less than 40 per cent. per annum upon
investments into the pockets of the Guilt
Vators. Such prosperity was too good to
last. The insect was not introduced into
Teneriffe until 1925, and fora time it
could not be encouraged to propagate sue
cessfully. A priest had the honor of be-
ing the discoverer of the right method
of nurture, and to him il is due that from
1915 TO 1865 an annual crop of from 1000 900
to 60OO,0OO pounds of cOchneal was pro-
duced. A cochincal plantation has a sing
ular aspect. The larvae, being very deli
cate and rather thick witted, have to be
tied upon the cactus plant which is to
be their nursery and their -nOurishment
a the same time. Thus one sees hundred
of the shoots Of the prickly bear-the cac-
tus in question-all bandaged with white
warm and dry during the winter and in
duced to adhere to the plant itself When
they are full grown they are ruthlessly
swept from their prickly quarters, shaken
or baked to death and dried in the sun.
The shriveled corpses are then packed
in bags and sold as ripe merchandise at
about SIS hundredwetght.
