When the "17-Year-Locusts" Come.
TRANSPORTATION OF PERIODICAL cIcADA
; NUMBERS INDICATE STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT

The year 1919 is likely to be one OF the
worst "locust years on record. But ento-
mologSts of the United States department OF
agriculture see nothing alarming in the pros
pect.
The periodical cicada. the real name OF the
insect commonly called locust" will appear
this year in the following states: Alabama,
District of Columbia Delaware, Georgia,
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New
York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina. Tennessee, Vermont, Vir-
ginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
The injury done by the periodical cicada
consists almost wholly in chiseling grooves
in the branches of trees for depositing eggs.
This injury always appears to be greater
than it actually is. Popular alarm is usually
out of proportion to general damage.
Young fruit trees are sometimes killed
by the cicada. The precautionary measures
are: Defer putting out young fruit trees till
next year; postpone budding operations; do
no pruning this winter or spring
When the insects begin coming out, hand
pick them from young fruit trees or spray
them with pyrethrum powder, kerosene
emulsions or a solution Of carbolic acid or
acetic acid
Later. when the insects are ready to be-
gin laying, spray young fruit trees with
whitewash.

The two broods due this year brood 10,
which belongs to the 17-year family, and brood Is
which belongs to the 13-year family.
Brood 10 has the widest distribution of any
brood Beginning at the eastern extremity OF
Long Island. it sweeps west and south to the Mis-
sssippi river at Cairo, Ill.,, and extends as far
north as central Wisconsin and as far south as
middle Georgia, with some isolated colonies as far
northeast as upper Vermont and one as far west
as the boundary line between Iowa and Nebraska.
The whole or portions of 20 states are included
within this range. There are three regions of
greater occurrence one covering New jersey
Maryland and eastern Pennsylvania another cov-
sering all Of Indiana. the greater part Of Ohio and
southern Michigan, and third covering western
North Carolina, eastern Tennessee, and northern
Georgia.

FIFTH VICTORY LOAN QUOTA

Fifty-one thousand dollars in bonds
were subscribed Saturday to o'clock
and indications were that by tonight
yesterdays record of 100000 would
be equaled. For the first three days
of the pre-campaign season Pendle-
ton has subscribed nearly s170,000, or
about one-fifth its quota.
Sales were increasing after noon to-
day and indications were for n rush
up to the closing of the banks. Many
women were among the Saturday
bond shoppers.
Subscriptions today, to the Victory
Loan have come in at a lively rate,
according to the local banks. and
there have been a few small buyers to-
day. Most of the early subscriptions.
however. have been for considerable
amounts and there are still some who
are known to be in the market for n
good-sized block who will sign up
Monday.
For some unknown reason some
persons have got the idea that they
are limited in their subscriptions to two
thirds of the amount they bought in
