until now. Can you find out for me 

 the cause and a remedy? 



Answer — The leaves received are in- 

 fested with yellow thrips, which is a 

 terrible pest when it gets into a cypri- 

 pedlum house. Some species are more 

 susceptible to it than others. The 

 Lawrenceanum types are particularly 

 subject. 



To eradicate the thrips sponge the 

 foliage well with whale oil soap and 

 then dip once a week in good strong 

 tobacco water.
