AMONG the enemies which the
~ farmer has to combat perhaps
none are more troublesome
than insects. Nothing is more
aggravating than to have a promising
crop Of fruit or grain attacked by
horde of bugs" and greatly injured
II not entirely ruined
Insects, like weeds, are very difficult
to deal with if you go at them one at
4 time, but If properly managed they
can be easily held in check. From
the standpoint of the damage they do,
insects may be divided into two
classes-those which attack field crops
and those which are Injurious to fruit
an qng gfaaFdeanf Are crops numper OF insects
seldom present in large enough num-
bers to destroy any considerable part
of the entire crop, the money value
OF the damage they infilct on the corn
grown on a quarter section each year
amounts to no small sum.
One of the most important of these
pests is the corn root worm. The
tkSS, w nlCu dlc ldlu III thC wi hhtio
during August or September, hatch
during the next June or July. The
worms when full grown are about
one-third of an inch long and as big
around as a pin. They bore up inside
the roots, injuring them so badly that
the growth of the plant is seriously
checked. Often, too, the roots are so
ho ho mn,
badly. Some time during August the
worm goes through a transformation
called pupation, which changes 1t into
a small light green beetle. This bee
tie feeds on the silks and tips of ears
and lays eggs for the next years crop
of worms.
Another insect which lives on the
roots Of corn is the root louise. These
lice are very small and helpless. They
are kept through the winter In the
egg stage in ant hills. In the spring
after they hatch they are placed on
the corn roots by the ants. The ants
are very fond of a sweet fluid which
Is secreted by the lice, and they take
care of them for this purpose.
Atoo
damage to the corn crop are the stalk
borer, wireworm, white grub, bill bug,
cutworm, etc. These insects live and
multiply In grass land and from there
find their way into the adjoining corn
fields They do the greatest damage,
however, when the grass land is
plowed up and put into corn.
The damage from nearly all insects
affecting corn. small grain or grass
can be readily prevented by a good
system Of rotation. This is especially
true If clover is used, since such In
seets as cutworms and grubs do not
work to any extent on clover. The
frequent blowing Of the ground and
change Of crops where rotation is fol
lowed are fatal to most insects. Dam
age from these pests will be still fur
Their reduced If the soil is kept so well
supplied with plant food that the
plants can get quick start in the
spring. Treated in this way, they are
more vigorous and better able to with
stand insect attacks.
These remedies. with the exception
of the last cannot be applied to or

 of the Town.-NO. }.
 In closing of "reminiscences No. 2 said that I would include the Roar. ing Brook district with the Village Hill district, as my home at the time of which I have written was at the Hollow and I was very young In 1886 our family moved from the Hol- lowato the Merrick homestead in the Glass Factory district, and of course my knowledge of the north part of the town was very limited, so I can tell but very little of the Village Hill and Roaring Brook districts
 The district extended from the Rider district on the east to the Will limantio river on the west, and from the Stafford line on the north to what was known as the center turnpike on the south
 The principal industry, side from farming. was what was then known as the Eldridge mills, consisting of a grist and saw mill and a shop, where they manufactured then, and for many years, their celberated hay rakes, branded with their name on each end of each rake. In long life of more than eighty years I have never seen as good wood -toothed hay brake as was made by the Eldridge brothers in their little shop on the Brook in Wilmington. At the time of which l write the three El- 1ridge brothers, consisting of Capt. Elijah. Hezekiah and Fri, were all active and influential members of the. Congregational church, and ever re- mained true to their convictions. ' There was a strong Baptist senti ment through the whole north part of the town, as there had been a Baptist ohurch there many years before under the teaching of Elder Benj jamin Lilli. bridge, who planted Baptist church there and was for many years it's ras- tor, After the forming of the Baptist shuroh at the Center many of the resi- lents of this part of the town became nem bers of the Baptist church.
 Of the residents of this part of the own, beside the Eldridge brothers, were the three Lillibridge brothers, l Benjamin. Amos and Burnham. Other families that I recall were the Oush- mans, Capt. Albry, Ira Johnson, Esq.

J. J. Moulton and the Harwoods As have said of other parts of Wilmington so may say of Village Hill, there was considerable wealth among the residents. who were hard working farmers. but they nearly all saved a little money, and their chill dren went out to become worthy citi- zens of other town and cities of other states.
 Here Twill mention that one of the very useful implements used in road making to. day had its origin in the mind of resident of Village Hill. Burnham Lillibridge. I refer to what was called side soraper.
 It was crude affair compared with those in use on the streets of Minne- apolis, but the principle of the scraper is the same that was first used on the roads in Wilmington. The machine now used is on wheels and is ad- unstable up and down by means of a crank and gear, and requires two men and four horses for operating it.
