GRAPE ENEMIES.
THE GRAPEVINE FIDIA.

Oul INK bAV ilAlNAOUALll4Sl viz AS0" V W
Of grapes are frequently riddled
with irregular holes by the attacks
of little beetle which, when dis
turbed, falls to the ground with its
legs folded up against its body, feign-
ing death or "playing poSsum."
The beetle is abont quarter of an
inch long, rather robust, and Of a
brown color, somewhat whltened by
a dense covering of yeIlOwish-white
hairs. In the nature and the a
mount of the injury it does at this
stage it resembles the rose-chafer,
for which it is sometimes mistaken.
Following the injury to the foliage,
the vines may be expected, If the
beetles have been abundant, TO pre-
sent sickly appearance, with check
ing of growth and ultimate death,
due to the feeding on the roots OF
the larvae, for, as in the case Of the
philoxera, the root injury is much
more serious than the injury 10 the
foliage. Vines sometimes die after
having developed half their leaves,
or may survive until the fruit is
nearly mature.
This insect occurs very generally
in the Mississippi Valley States, from
Dakota to Texas, and more rarely
east of the Alleghanies and south
ward to Florida. The beetle has
caused serious damage to foliage,
notably in Missouri, Illinois, and
Ohio, having been recognized over
thirty years in the aforementioned
State as one of the worst enemies OF
the grape. The work of the larvae
has been recognized only recently
by Mr.. Webster and others in north
ern Ohio, but 1t may be looked for
wherever the beetle occurs.
The life history as worked out by
Mr.. Webster is briefly as follows
The yeIlowish eggs III large patches
are thrust in cracks OF the
bark of the old wood, usually wei
atove ground, as many as 700 hav.
ing been counted on a single vine
Very rarely are they placed IN cracks
in the soil about the base of the
vine, but so loosely are they attached
to the bark that they not infrequent
ly fall to the ground. The larvae
on Matching, fall clumslly to tn,
ground, and quickly disappear il
cracks in the soil, chiefly near O
Just at the 6ase of the vine. The,
feed at first on the fibrous roots nea
the point of entrance, but soon reacI
the - n roots, and completely roj
them Of bark, gradually extendin!
onward through the soil to dis
tance of at least 3 feet, and down
ward to a depth of at least l foot
Most of them reach full growth b
the middle of August, attaining
length of nearly half an inch, an,
construct little cavities or earther
cells in the soil, in which they hiber
nate until June Of the following
year, when they change to pup@.
The beetles emerge after abou
two weeks pupation, and begin t
feed from the upper surface of tn
leaves. With thin-leafed grape
they eat the entire substance of tn
leaf, but with thick leafed varietie
the downy lower surface is left, Civ
ing the foliage a ragged, skeletonil
ed look. They feed on any cultiva
ted grape, also on the wild grape
which have probably been their foo
from time immemorial. Most of tn
adults disappear by the first of AU
gust, few scattering individuals re
naming until the first of Septembe

RESULT IN NEBRASKA.

Attempt at Fusion of Democrats and
Populists Not a Complete Success.
HASTINGS, Neb., Aug. S.-The Popu-
list state convention has finished it's
labors and adjourned sine die after hav-
ing been in session all night. The CON
vention was almost entirely dominated
by the middle of the road delegates and
they very nearly overturned all the
carefully laid plans for fusion with the
silver Democracy. G. J. Smyth, chair
man of the Democratic state central
committee, was on the ground with a
proposition that two places on the Pop
ulist state ticket be left vacant. A
committee was appointed to confer
with the Democratic leaders. The con-
ference
Resulted in = Failure to Agree,
and the committee made a partial re-
port to the convention, stating that the
Democrats demanded the treasurer and
attorney general. The proposition
evoked a debate whichsdragged along
without result until Chairman Smyth
broke off all negotiations by withdraw.
ing the request for two places on the
state ticket. This action on the part OF
the Democrats seemed to have a pacific
effect OH the radical element in the con.
vention, for after nominating nearly the
entire ticket q motion to leave the at
torney ~generalship vacant was carried.
The friends of Bryan are considerably
discouraged at the inability to accom-.
plish fusion in the candidates own

SILVER STATESMEN.

National Politics to q Lake County
Audience.

grounds and within reach Of the speak.
er's voice. which is all the attendance
any party announcement can reasonably
expect to draw out at this seaton Of the
year. The outdoor gathering was much
preferable to the opera house in such
weather, and with the exception OF an
occasional break from some 'hobo"
who does not know the ordinary o
tesies Of a public gathering, the occas-
ion was pleasant and orderly.
II the occasion was intended for a rat
ification meeting, the local management
failed in the essential features; il it was
only an ordinary political gathering, it
was a decided success. The Wentworth
band enlivened the evening with some
fine selections. DIR. Lowe presided and
introduced Judge Palmer who had been
pressed into the service to relieve Sena-
tor Pettigrew. The latter's voice had
almost entirely failed him owing to
much recent outdoor speaking. This
was much regretted by the audience
but Judge Palmer as a substitute made
a strong address. His argument was
not so much in the line Of proving that
free coinage Of silver was necessary to
the country's prosperity as to show that
bi-metallism was the money ordained of
the constitution and had been the set
tied policy Of the government and Of the
republican party up to the time of the
declaration for the gold standard by the
st. Louis convention He quoted Nc
kinley, Thurston, Towne, Picker and
republican platforms up to this year to
show where the republican party and
republican leaders stood in deneuneing
the gold standard up to the time Of the
st. Louis convention, and maintained
that in order to be consistent republi.
chns ought to stand there yet and favor
the double standard. From this on the
Judge proceeded to fortify the argu-
ment for bi-metallism and prosperity by
showing the depreciation of prices in
products and the appreciation Of money
as a result Of the single gold standard.
Tramps were never found when pro.
ducers were prosperous. The argument
for the single gold standard he claimed
was based entirely upon self interest,
the selfshness of thoss who had control
Of the gold and were reaping the double
harvest Of the increased purchasing
power Of both interest and capital, and
the selfshness, for the same reason, Of
those enjoying fixed salaries.
Senator Pettigrew spoke but a min
ute or two. regretting his inability to
address the people at length, Said that
in the future, just as he has done in the
past, he would vote for free silver and
any reasonable tariff. He. as a bi-met.
