has been recognized in the United 

 States tor a number of years, and in 

 some places is occasionally proving 

 very destructive. 



The writer treated trees of five shade 

 tree owners last season, in June, while 

 the insects were still in the egg stage. 

 A little compressed air sprayer was 

 used on the trees and the application 

 was made to the trunk and larger 

 branches with a scrub brush, as this 

 is where the egg masses mostly harbor. 

 Sometimes the bark will crack in 

 large places on the trunk of trees and 

 the insects will gather under the bark 

 and a scrub brush is therefore a very 

 effective implement.

ADDENDA TO SWEET PEA RE- 

 VIEW, 1909. 

 Howard M. Earl, manager for W. At- 

 lee Burpee & Co., from whom much of 

 the information contained in the article 

 appearing in our issue of August H 

 was obtained, writes under date of 

 August IS as follows: 



lu looking over some notes the other 

 night I found I unintentionally failed to 

 correot some wrong information that was 

 given to me while in California, which 

 was to the effect that "President Spencer" 

 was the same as "America Spencer." I 

 tooli an expert's opinion for this but upon 

 investigating am advised by Mr. Burpee 

 that the "President" is quite similar to 

 our Senator Spencer to he introduced in 

 1910, but the color of the stripings and 

 flakings is not so bright. 



That Sweet Pea article of yours was 

 fine. Some of the liyper-critical may crit- 

 icise it but the meat was there. 



We take pleasure in making the cor- 

 rection referred to above by Mr. Earl.
