New Caterpillar Appears.

A peculiar caterpillar is destroy
ing the foliage of small elm trees
and other vegetation in different
parts of Brattleboro. The caterpil-
lar varies in size from an inch to
two inches in length. The body is
of black, with a fine white mixture,
and the back has a row of seven red
spots. The "running gear" is also
of red, and sharp, spike-Iike bristles
protrude from various parts OF the
body.
The caterpillar eats the leaves in a
peculiar manner, apparently tearing
them in strips, and in attacking
shrubbery chooses the largest and
toughest leaves instead of the deli
cate foliage.
