generations feed and from which II
flies to another sort Of vegetation 10
pass the summer months. Among
such discoveries the following few
may be mentioned by way Of illus
tration: the migration of the wooiiy
aphid Of the apple from leaf cluster
of elm tree to apple tree: the migra-
ton of a closely related species from
leaf roll Of elm to June berry (known
widely in Maine as the sugar
PLUMP: the migration Of the long
beaked aphid from plum to thistle;
the migration of the pond plant
aphid from plum to various water
plants; the migration of alder blight
aphid from maple to alder; migra-
ton of cone gall aphid from black
spruce to white pine; and the afore-
mentioned migration of the pink and
green aphid of potato from rose to
potato.
In each case mentioned. previous
to Investigation by the Station Ento-
mologist. the single aphid species
concerned with each migration had
been considered two distinct species
so different are their appearance,
habits. or type of work upon the two
food plants. In each case cited
knowledge of the full life cycle of the
aphid has revealed a hithertofore I'M
suspected method of control practi-
cal under certain conditions. The
indiscretion of attempting to grow
perfect plums in thistle patch, an
ornamental maple tree next an un-
treated alder swamp, ETC.. etc, be-
comes apparent.
1t is, therefore, upon a foundation
of past successful investigation with
other species of aphids. that the hope
of future potato aphid control is
based--a hope that is in no way a
promise; for no scientific inquiry can
be undertaken with a pledge as to
its outcome. The work of the Station
Entomologist on the potato mosaic
situation will. of course, be confined
strictly to the insect phases. of the
work; the Patholegists whose past
investigations as to potato diseases
have advanced our knowledge of mo-
sale and other troubles, will continue
in their work
With Plant Pathologists and Ento-
mologist united against potato mo-
sale, shall we not find fresh courage
for the outlook?

This Mans FOrethought Saved
Own and Three Other Lives

Greenville, Me-. Dec. 6-Three or four
days after the recent Chesuncook trag-
edy. Joshua Smith started up the lake
in his motorboat, having with him
three other men who live in that Sec
ton. AS they were leaving. one of the
party, as last thought, asked Mr..
Smith. to wait a moment while he
hitched his canoe on astern of the mo-
torboat, remarking: I'VE don't want
any accident like that few days
ago."
The canoe was therefore taken along
as a tender and to that happy thought
was due the saving of the lives of all
four men, in all probability, for near
the head Of the lake a foe of ice was
struck. The ice was of surprising
thickness and solidity. piercing a big
hole in the boat. The craft filled SO
quickly that the men had no time to
save their effects. They made a dash
for the canoe and succeeded in getting
into it before the boat sank.
The men lost their rifles, each hav-
ing one along, and saved only what
clothes they wore.

Robinson Crusoe." an edition with
illustrations by n. c. Wyeth Of
Chadd's Ford. Pa. and published by
the Cosmopolitan Book Corporation
of New York City. 1920. 1t Is differ
cnt from the book we read when
younger, the small, fine print and the
antiquated and limited pictures. We
were interested as never in another
book-Robinson Crusoe was the most
wonderful man in the world and most
of US wished that we could have a
like experience. Mr.. Wyeth has made
another chapter in the history of
Robinson Crusoe. He has told
much of the story with his superb
illustrations. 1t Is almost q revela-
ton to the older readers to study his
pictures and see how perfectly they
fit and tell the story. To the young
er and present day readers-they
have a treat. The book is otherwise
finely gotten up. The old story is
there, but presented In new and
more attractive form and style than
the old editions. . 1t will be a prize
for whoever obtains 1t.
