They next descend to the ground and burrow to the depth of three inches or more, when they spin a fragile cocoon of dull yellowish silk, within which they transform to pupae, and remain in this state until the following spring, when the moths emerge, ascend the trees and lay their eggs for another generation. Some of the individuals, however, emerge in. the fall and lay their eggs, but these do not hatch till the following spring. The wingless female is of a pale ash color! and the male is of the same color, with a pals broken band across the fore, wings, near the outer margin, and three interrupted brownish lines between that and the base. The hind wings are of a very pale ash color or very light gray, with a darker dot near the middle. The fall canker worm emerges from the ground late in the fall; after the leaves have fallen from the trees an! the frosts have destroyed all the tender plants. The females climb the trees attended by the males who hover around on the wing. After the mating of the moths the females lay their eggs side by side, in regular masses, often as many as 100 together, in an exposed situation on the twigs or branches of the trees. Sometimes the females, through mistake, crawl up the side of a building and deposit their cluster of j eggs on the exposed surface. After, they have done feeding they descend from the trees and burrow into the ground, where they pass their transformations, and the moths emerge late in the fall. The female of this species is wingless, about three-tentof an inch long, and of a pale gray or ash color. The males have well developed wings, which expand nearly an inch and a half, and are of the same color as the female. The fore wings have two rather irregular whitish bands across them, and the hind wings have a blackish dot on the middle and a more or less distinct whitish band outside of it. As the females are wingless and pass their transformations underground, and are obliged to crawl up the trunks of the trees to deposit their eggs, one precaution is to prevent their ascent by putting bands of heavy paper around : . . i j 1 1 one-ha- lf . 11 1 4 A, Gardner, ' 1 Harness and Saddlery GEO.

He says: "Year before last they got into my garden and utterly destroyed my cabbages, radishes, mustard, seed turnips and every other cruciform plant. Last year I did not set any of that order of plants In my garden. But the present year, thinking they had probably left the premises, I planted my garden with radishes, mustard and a variety of cabbages. By the first of April the mustard and cabbages were large enough for use, and I discovered that the insect had begun on them. I began picking them off by hand and By that tramping them under foot. 434 s, means I have preserved my of one but I have visited every them daily now for four months, finding on them from 35 to 60 full-groInsects every day, some coupled and some in the act of depositing their Although many have been eggs. hatched in my garden the present season, I have suffered none to come to maturity, and the daily supplies of grown insects that I have been blessed with are immigrants from some other ' . garden. "The perfect insect lives through the winter and Is ready to deposit its eggs as early as the 15th of March, and sooner, If it finds any cruciform plant large enough. They set their eggs on end In two rows, cemented together, mostly on the under side of the leaf, and generally from eleven to twelve in number. In about six days In April (four in July) there hatches out from these eggs a brood of larvae (fig: a), resembling the perfect insect, but having no wings. This brood Immediately begins the work of destruction by piercing and sucking the life sap from the leaves. In twelve days the insects have matured. They are timid and will run off and hide behind the first leaf, stem or any part of the plant that will answer their purpose. The leaf that they puncture Immediately wilts.

The Massachusetts floral emblem society was organized to consider the claims of all flowers presented as candidates for a state flower to devise means of reaching the various towns of the state and for the purpose of educating public urging the selection of a state flower. Some of the states have already legalized their floral emblem, Maine having selected Uie plne 'cone, Vermont the. red clover Minnesota the ladles' slipper, Montana .the bitter sweet, California the yellow poppy, and Nebraska the golden rod, while many candidates have been suggested for Massachusetts, among them being the mayflower, the pond lily, the elm and the columbine.

It Is not known how cheaply apples may be grown in Maine, and until this feature of the problem Is considered it is largely guess work. The fruit growers of Maine are squarely facing the question, and some of us may live to know how much our fertile hillsides, under the skillful manipulation of the horticulturists, may be made to produce. We are just getting down to the question in good shape, and the next four years are promising many revelations. D. H. Knowlton, CicreUry Ualno Pomologies!
