Schedules for the appearance of all

pared for generations to come by
Charles Lester Marlatt, assistant chief
o. the United States bureau OF en-
tomology, to whom am indebted for
the preceding information concerning
these remarkable insects
When the cicada appears in great
numbers it naturally causes consider
able alarm and arouses fears for the
safety OF shade trees and orchards"
said Mr.. Marlatt. The actual dam
age, however. is usually slight. Ex-
cept in the case OF newly planted or
chards. and even here, by vigorous
pruning back after the cicada has dis
appeared. much Of the injury caused
by the egg punctures can be obviated
Recent experience indicates that trees
thoroughly sprayed with Bordeaux

avoided by the cicada."
