would have caught both insects. Or.
had we sprayed with the same poison
for the imported currant worm when
it appeared, we would have caught not
only 1t but the borers.
As 1t was we did not take the trou-
BILE to buy hellebore and spray. but
every few days went over the bushes
and picked of the most numerous
colonies OF currant worms. We saved
part Of the foliage and supposed tnat
the battle was won, but in this we
we're mistaken, for while we were
fighting the visible enemy on the
outer works. the sappers and miners
were busy tunneIing under the fortlf-
cations, so to speak.
The next spring every stalk on
every bush was dead, and an exami-
nation showed that each stalk had its
pith partly eaten out. That was the
end of the plantation, to our regret
The lesson was a costly one, but 1t
is one that we are not likely TO forget.
We have been impressed with the
fact that It is rather late TO spray for
insects after they begin to swarm on
the bushes by the thousands.--Mary
