Field BUGS as Toys.

The field bugs, known in America as
Jane bugs, have resumed their place
as toys for German children. An eX-
traordinary flood of the beetles has
sent hundreds of HerlinerS into nearby
forests and fields to catch thousands
of them and sell them to dealers who.
in turn, retail them to fond parents
and children. The bugs sell at ten for
a mark now, whereas before the war
a dozen could be bought for a few
pfennigs. The dealer makes 300 per
cent profit, those engaged in catching
them declare, Farmers encourage the
catching of the bugs rs playthings for
city children, as they are destructive
to the foliage of orchards and vine
yards. The unusually large plague Of
field bugs has revived the custom of
catching them for sale for the first
time since the war. An expert catch
err usually brings in about 1000 bugs
a day. They live for about ten days as
p~laythings.
