THE ASTER BEETLE. 



One of the best known aster pests is 

 the slender, lively black beetle (Epicauta 

 Pennsylvanica) which attacks the blos- 

 soms. If left unchecked they soon de- 

 stroy every flower when at all prevalent. 

 Thorough hand picking has been our best 

 remedy and if done every day is not a 

 great task even in a large bed. — Geo. E. 

 Stone, in bulletin of Hatch Experiment 

 Station, 



Elmika, N. Y.— The United States Cut 

 Flower Co. had its M'^teors all planted, 

 last week and now the Beauties are in, 

 with good progress being made on the 

 teas. J. J. Curran, the superintendent, 

 is visiting Buffalo, Toronto and Bramp- 

 ton this week.
