liar habit that we are able to prevent
their devastations. By putting some
mechanical contrivance around the
body of the tree early in April, the
females are prevented from deposit
ing their eggs in place where the
young can do any injury. A strip of
tarred paper put around the tree and
fastened tightly with wire or cord
near the upper edge, allowing the
lower edge to flare out from the trees,
makes very good protection. 1t is
made still better by smearing the in
side Of it with cheap molasses or a
mixture Of tar and grease melted to-
gether. Tin collars are sometimes
made with lower haring edge, that
answers the purpose admirably, They
can be attached to the tree by taking
one end and passing the other end
around so as to join it, when another
tack can be inserted. If the bark is
rough it will be necessary to put felt
or some such material between the
collar and the tree to prevent the
moths climbing up in the crevices of
the bark, 1t is also sufficient simply
to smear the trunks with a narrow
band Of tar and grease or with cheap
molasses.
If this material hardens new ap-
plication must be made. Cotton or
wool is sometimes tied about the tree.
This answers the purpose if it does
not become matted together. OF
course it is useless 60 put on any of
these contrivances after the moths
have passed up the tree, which in
this latitude in ordinary years would
be about the first OF May. If for any
reason of neglect or accident, the
eggs have been deposited, the only
remaining remedy is to spray the
trees with poisonous mixture. The
common remedy for this is Paris
Green applied at the rate of one
pound to $50 gallons of water. If
this application is made aztec the ca
terpillars are nearly grown, but little
good results from it, but if the trees
are sprayed early in the season short
ly after they hatch, and again in
week, the remedy is entirely su fl
cieut. The spraying must be done
with an apparatus made for this pur-
pose in order chat all parts of the
foliage may be we'll covered with the
mixture.

Save the Trees.

Prof. Waldron of the state agricul-
tural college sounds a timely warning
to those who are raising trees, urging
them to take precautions against the
ravages of the measuring worm.
The canker worm in its laryal state
is readily distinguished 10y it's pecu-
liar habit of locomotion. 1t is some
times called the measuring worm OF
the loop worm, both Of which names
give an idea of it's method of travel
that is by placing down the legs OF
the forward end of the body and
looping the body up in such a posi-
ton that the hind legs are brought
Immediately back of the fore legs
with the hind legs held fast. The
front Of the body is then lifted and
stretched to the full length Of the
worm where it is again placed down
in readiness for another step. The
larva also has a peculiar habit Of
swinging down from the limbs when
ever they are disturbed, remaining
suspended on fine, silken thread
which they spin out as they fall. At
terwards they climb back up the
thread at their leisure, This peculiar
habit affords them protection from
birds. 1t also enables them to pass
through from one tree to another in
search of new food. for when sus-
pended in mid air, the wind readily
blows them to another adjoining tree.
The full grown caterpillars are an
inch and fourth to an inch and a
half i'll length and vary from a green
to an indefinite brown with rather
vague longitudinal stripes. The
eggs from which these caterpillars
hatch are usually deposited upon the
twigs of the tree in the months of
April or May, though it sometimes
happens that few Of the insects de-
velop from the spring larvae later in
the summer and lay their eggs in the
fall.
The moth of which the canker
worm is the larva is rather peculiar
in that the female is wingless On
account of this they are obliged to
climb the tree in order to deposit
their eggs. 1t is owing to this pecu-
