Less Lonely Club

Confident that New York is the oneliest city in
all this wide world, the New York World says,
several men and women have organized the Less
Lonely league, with headquarters at 81 East One

to provide suitable meeting place for persons of

These pests have been increasingly
abundant in some parts OF the coun-
try during the past few years and ev.
cry effort possible should be made to
control and destroy them
These beetles hibernate In rubbish
under leaves and any shelter they can
find, and become active early in
March and April. The eggs are laid
as soon as the beetles can find buds
In suitable condition and the earliest
or these are on the cultivated straw
berry. The females continue feeding
and laying eggs until after the middle
OF June. attacking in succession after
the strawberry, dewberry wild straw
berry and blackberry.
Development from egg to adult re-
quires about one month. These feed
but little and disappear into hiber-
mating quarters shortly afterward.
The actual damage done by these
insects is not really measured by the
percentage OF buds destroyed, because
these are the earliest, that would or
dinarily have been the finest berries
and brought the highest price
The injury cause Is due to the feed
ing habit of the larva which requires
pollen for its development. The
female beetle, therefore, lays it's
rather large, white, glistening egg into

variety and, in order to prevent fur
Their development, punctures the flow
er stalk just below 1t. In a day or
two the bud willis, the stalk breaks at
the point Of punCture, and usually the
bud drops to the ground, although it
may hang on for some days by few
threads of tissue This dropping to
the ground favors the development Of
the larva which, exposed to the hot
sun, might otherwise dry up, or the
bud itself might become too hard and
unfit for food.
There is no period in the life of this
insect when 1t can be satisfactorily
reached by insecticides. The adult
feeds, little, usually on pollen or by
eating holes into the well developed
blossom buds. Whether the insect
devours the tissue when II cuts
through the flower stalks is not
known. The larva feeds in shelter
continuously and is entirely beyond
our reach.
AS the larva feeds only on pollen,
pistillate plants which bear none are
free from attack and the obvious rec

fruit garden for the home must be
just as near the house as is possible,

Plant not less than one apple tree Of
at least half dozen of the summer,

increase or double the number OF
trees upon the same size plot Of
ground that the apples will occupy
by starting both on the same tract
at the same time, and the peaches

That there is no fruit so erratic In its

The method OF a few growers is to

much better plan would be to plant

has disappeared from beside fountains and
