Gardeners' Insect Friends An garden insects are not injuri- ous. In fact many of them are bene- ficial, continually doing good by des- troying those species which are harmful. Foremost among the in- sects that help the gardener are the different kinds ` of lady -bird beetles. Both in their larval and adult stag- es, they feed almost exclusively upon plant lice and scale insects, Another kind of beetle, the fiery ground beet- le, is a particularly useful insect, says: Mr. Arthur Gibson, the Dominions Entomologist. This beetle and its; voracious grub, which is called the: cutworm lion, destroy enormous numbers of cutworms. The beetle is brownish -black, with the wing -cases spotted with coppery red—hence its name. The large harpalus beetle, which is very common, destroys cut- worms. The different kinds of lace wing, and other two' and four winged parasitic flies are also friends of the gardener 1 Acorn Ba Ventilators Prevent spon- taneous combus- tion, Base, 20 M.; Drum, 16 in.; Height, 4 ft, 5 in.—only $5.00. o, ', V i1iifff1 Iiikr i 1.r� Preston Galvanized Tanks Special.
