A Calcium Carbide Lamp Traps Vine
yard Pests.
For several years past the vineyards
in the important wine growing dis
trict of Beaujolais have suffered great
ly from the attacks of numerous flying
insects, the most important of which
is known as the pyralid. Last year,
says the Electrical Review Of London,
a series Of experiments was carried
out in one Of the large vineyards to
see IL the insects could be caught by
bright lights burning at night. An
apparatus was constructed, consisting
of an acetylene generator holding
about six ounces of calcium carbide.
Over this was circular metal dish
about twenty inches in diameter, and
over this at a height of about eight
inches a single acetylene jet giving a
small, bright light at about ten candle
power. This light the carbide was suf-
fcient to keep burning for six or eight
hours, In a basin layer of water was
placed, and on top of this layer of
kerosene or some other cheap oil, of
which about two fluid ounces were re.
quired. These machines were set up
about $50 yards apart and were set
in motion at dusk, preferably on dark
nights. On the first night one lamp
caught $500 pyralids and Els moths
OF other kinds. During July the lamps
averaged 1920 insects per lamp per
night. The expense of the lamps is
reported to have been two cents per
night each, or about two and halt
cents per night per acre. IL is said
that this method Of catching noxious
insects is more efficacious than any
method which has been tried before
