George @. Raymond, who has had expert
ence with trees, says that what is sometimes
taken as tine attack of insects or fungus on
sycamore trees is really the result of sudden
cold weather. A frost causes the young leaves
to curl as If stung, but they are not seriously
hurt, and in time come out almost as well

cases of trees affected by caterpillars, Mr..
Raymond recommends spraying. When
bands of cotton are tied around tree
trunk, care must be taken to leave space for
the air to pass between the cotton and the
bark, or damage is likely to result to the
