Insect Enemies.

other causes, The bugs live by suck
ing the sap from the tender tips of the
plants, causing the tips To die, This
produces "A dwarfed, punched. thick
encd appearance. as distinguished from
the symmetrical dwar.ing caused by
lack of moisture. In dry weather 1t is
most marked. the branches often be-
coming distorted and the leaves thick
and yellow. Occasionally the plants are
DESTROYED, only the stump and few
black leaves remaining. Other plants
are also affected by this insect, Dab
las in particular, also brachyCome,
calendula. centaurca and most of the
everlasting, as well as antirrhinum and
SALIVA.
The furnished bug is an inconsplcu-

are feeding they either hide or fly

seems to make the plant less attrac-
tive to the bugs. Whale oil soap spray
and kerosene emulsion In also excellent
The most damage IL done in dry
