GRUBS IN LAWN. 



Editor Horticulture, 



Dear Sir:— Will you answer the follow- 

 ing In your valuable paper? My lawn is 

 full of a small grub lil;e a caterpillar, with 

 a golden-colored head. It kills the grass 

 very fast by eating the roots. What is 

 the cause, and cure for same? 



Brooklyn. 



The grub complained of is the 

 larva of a beetle, very probably the 

 May beetle or June bug as sometimes 

 called. The eggs are laid in the 

 ground and the grubs live in the soil 

 for a period of three years before 

 emerging. The best remedy is to plow 

 or dig in the fall and give chickens or 

 ducks a chance to feed on tlie grubs. 

 .\ good dose of lime mixed into the 

 soil will finish what the chickens do 

 not find. Kerosene emulsion applied 

 to the lawn will usually be found a 

 good remedy. If the soil is light 

 sometimes the use of a heavy roller 

 on the lawn will crush the grubs.
