Traverse City.-Millions of cherry
leaf beetles have suddenly put in an
appearance in Traverse City following
strong east wind that lasted nearly
"a hours. So noticeable was the num-
Der of insects that the teacher of agri-
culture of the local high school was
asked concerning it, and he stated that
it was the galerucella cavicallis, here
tofore perculiar to the upper PENN
sula. Orchardists say that few or
chards were slightly infected last year
1t is thought that they may breed on
the vast wild cherry plains several
miles east of the city. The beetle
is less than quarter of an inch in
length, oval, and of dark red color;
the antennae and parts of the legs are
black. The insects feed on the leaves
of the cherry in June, but come again
in September After the adult insects
come the larvae, which also do much
damage to the foliage of trees.
