excreinent of the insect. The eggs are about I' nch long. Bats llpward ln Stemi The next ýstage of the insect le the larva or borer or worm stage wlileh la, of ibourqe, at first exceedingly smali so that the begInning of the lnjury ls aai- mosqt certain to be entire.ly. overlooked by the grower. The borer or larva, finit eats its'way upward Inthe stem of the. plant,.for a short distance and> turns downward, uSually excavating before it is full-grown, 'a tunnel about a foot long. Nfany of the larvae have coin- pleted their growth-by the first week in August and this Is followed bY a third stage of existence known ais the pupa. The pupa stage la the. non-feeding, quieseent period during which the body of the 1orer is transi'ormied, into that of the aduit or, parent formi. This ýperiod is spetLli the larval burrow, usually soniewhere, about mid-length. The larva forins a pupal chamfber, an Inch. or ant litehi nd si hait long, packlng borings about, its body at either end. ILt, hen elheds lits skin and spends a period of probably a couple of weeks ln this PU- pal stage. The aduits. emerge f rom the i)upae, usually beginning about the nid- dii' of August and continuing Until the nmlddle of Septenfiber. They then find thteir.way into hibernating quai-ters and rest there until the following bate May or June Mien they become active again and are ready to start the next year's cycle over. Bnrtilisg Best Preventative There'is flot miuch by way of experi- mnentl work on -the contrôl 0f these pest$., 1' seemns obvious that any dah- lias .Vhlch are so affeeted that they are not likely to produce a satisfaetory b)li)iï, ,;hould be pulled up and burned as nronmptly as possible now before any of the adult stage have emerged from themi. There is a perlod right now of the,,* larvae and the pupa stage lit the stenîs of the plant when they are, at the nierey 0f the grower. Once they are transformeëd to the flying beetle stage, thvy are beyond control. Each pair inay produve a hundred or more eggs so that i-ou will readlY understand tliat the destruc-tion of the insects at this time. may go far towards preventing a dm1- * lar- outbreak next year. Anything that cou'id bedonc in the way of community actioninli destroying Infested stalks at this timne, would be niuéh more effective than the. work of an individual grower. Aniother thing that we may bie sure is of iniportance lin the prevention of this In juryr another year, ls keeping downÏ of !edsil and about the flower'gaiden- and lit the community in general.
