BEETLES GROW MUSHROOMS

Scientists have known OF mush-

and 1t was generally believed that the
ant was the only insect possessing
sufficient intelligence to make a sue
cessful mushroom farmer. Prof. j.
Bouverie. the French entomologist,
has found that a certain wood boring
beetle known as the Bostrychide is as
familiar with mushroom cultivation
for home consumption as the ant.
Professor Bouverie discovered that the
beetles bore holes in wood and half
fill them with prepared fungus
which makes an ideal mushroom bed.

tended, and in course of time the
