MAPLE SCALE.
REMEDY IS
SUGGESTED

The cottony maple scale, which in
tests every maple tree in Hammond
this year. and which, it is feared, might
do irreparable harm to the shade trees,
has its parasites and natural enemies
and because of this good news which
Mayor Smalley procured from the Unit
ed States department of agriculture.
there Is hope for the hundreds of maple
trees in Hammond.
Realizing the seriousness of the sit
uation in Hammond, Mayor Smalley
some time ago wrote to the depart
ment for information to obtain the best
means of fighting the pest. In answer
c. l. Marlatt, the assistant chief of the
bureau, sent Mayor Smalley circu-
lar dealing with the cottony maple
scale.
The paper first treats of the insect in
general way, giving his origin and
recalls what researches and expert
ments have already been made. 1t takes
up the problem under the heads of
food plants for the cottony maple scale,
its habits and history its parasites
and predaceous enemies. the remedies
and winter and summer treatment for
the trees.
The paper, written in 1905 by ]. G..
Sanders, assistant in the bureau 70 en-
tomology. says in part:
Recently many reports of it's eX-
treme abundance have come to us from
the city of Chicago and vicinity. and
from various sections of Illinois, Indi-
ana, Wisconsin and Iowa. 1t is inter
! esting to note that most of the reports
of serious injury by this insect comes
from those states, or portions of states,
- he Iat ~
seems to be attacked by fewer para
| sites than in the southern regions.
The various species of naples. par
ticularly the soft maple, including the
| box elder, are the favorite food plants
| of this species. The writer has, how
ever, found it on forty-seven different
! species of trees shrubs and vines.
Notwithstanding the extreme pro-
| Efficacy of this insect. it is usually held
in check by its many natural enemies
Doctor Howard has observed the Eng
lish sparrow apparently feeding upon

These larvae enter and devour the en-
tire contents of ovisacs after an

The paragraph dealing with the rem
| edies is important The author says:
| In dealing with an infestation b.
the cottony maple scale, the most i'm
portant matter to be considered in eacl
case is the advisability of artifcia

conditions. The natural enemies o
this pest have done and are still do

be in the ascendency for any grea
