to three-qujart6ts of an
inch in depth. The ova this deposited
remains uninjured by the frost of winter,
and with the return of genial weather in
the spring the young brood come to life.
Though for a time they are compara-
tively harmless and •confuted to the
hatching ground, they soon begin to
spread (chiefly in one direction) and be-
take themselves with great voracity, to
their work of destruction. In the latter
part of June, they overpass- their previ-
ous boundaries, and go forth full fledged,
giving fresh and startling manifestations
f their devastating habits, sparing
iaeitber field nor garden, making common
cause against vegetation in general.
Fan wheat, on accoimt of early maturi-
ty, usually in a measure escapes, but we
have seen it stripped of husks and leaves
and all young grass swept from the soil.
We have seen barley that . promised 50i
bushels per acre, reduced to 5. And;
the creature seems to take a malicious
delight in: nipping the delicate neck of`
the oat and casting it to the ground long
ere it is ripe. In his immediate' neigh-
borhood. the:turuip crop had become a
very precarious one, • requiring great
watchfulness and care, and that too , of-
ten ineffectual We hal e seen neatly
thinned turnips, fresh and vigorous in
the morning, so c1en gone in the even-

vesti:gatipn to tell that such plants had
been there at all. -Fruit trees ane'

done by these fell destroyers, during
the present summer, in . our locelity,wis
much less than in the two previous sea-
