OF THE CHRISTOPHER
Nothing to Be Gained by Encouraging
Blister BeetIes-Destroy All Grass
hopper Eggs In the Fall.

Among the natural enemies of tho
grasshoppers are the blister beetles
or old-fashioned potato bugs, the
larvae of which subsist almost wholly
on grasshopper eggs. The blister
beetles become very abundant in
grasshopper years when food is plen-
tiful. However, little or nothing 10
gained by substituting a plague Of
blister beetles for a plague Of grass
hoppers and the wiser course IL to
destroy as many grasshopper eggs AZ
possible in the fall. thereby cutting
on tho development Of both sorts Of
pests.
