while the whole of New Jersey and the
District of Columbia are marked for in
vason by the northerners. The latter
constitute one of the best recorded OF
the seventeen-year broods-one which has
been regularly reported in Connecticut
every seventeen Years since 1924, and
at equal intervals in New Jersey since
IT'S. And the southerners compose one
of the two largest thirteen-year broods
known OF entomologists.
Although others have appeared among
us at more or less frequent intervals.
these two exact broods have not appeared

numbers recalled to our ancestors the
hordes of migratory locusts or grasshop-

in clouds that obscured the sun and
caused darkness to reign over regions OF
earth.
The periodical cicada-found only in
America-lives to be older than any other
insect known to science. The two broodS
which are to appear among us this year
have respective spans of life which a dog
and cat could with but difficulty attain.
Why the northern species lives under
ground for exactly seventeen years, while
the southerners maintain their subter-
ranean existence for just thirteen years
