The Bumble FloweraBeetle~ "`•
On Fruit and Corte
At the prescttt time a considerable
mmnber of inquiries are being received
from farmers about a 'beetle—the
'Bum'ble134-ota'er-Beetle or Brown
Fruit Chafer, which is attacking corn
and ripening fruit, This insect is a
yellow-brown beetle, one-half inch or
more in length, tv'ith its wing covers
sprinkled all over with small irregela
spots. :In 'late summer it is found ev-
ery year. in greater of leas uiunbers,
on ripe 'fruit—peaches, pears, it is
rarely responsible for serious damage,
at has not 'been observed that the in-
sect has 'caused commercial injury in
Ontario, and consequently the ,Dom-
inion Entomological Laboratory at
Vineland 'Station, Ont.. '!tae never had
occasion to advise the adulation of any
control measures, other than hand-
picking of the beetles.
Winter Food Supply for Bees
tEvery colony of ,bees when ready
for the.winter shott13! have at least
forty pounds of food stored in order
tient they may have .sufficient to carry
them through until new nectar is
available the following spring. Only
the best clover or buckwheat honey is
suitable ,for this purpose. Failing this,
Ilse the required amount of pure cane
sugar tttade into syrup at ,tete rate of
two parts of sugar to one of -water.
Of Lite slaughter -house by-products
for the feeding of poultry, meat meal
,for meat snaps are by far the .most
commonly used and are the standard
animal protein supplements to 'poul-
try rations, They vary ,greatly in ana-
lysis according to 'the amount of bole
material they contain but are usually
purchased on a guaranteed analysis.
