JANUARY, 1909 
Celastrus orbiculatus (also called C, articulatus and 
paniculutus) bears a profusion of orange yellow 
fruit all along its branches 
sometimes called erroneously C. paniculatus), 
as it bears a profusion of fruit all along 
its branches, while the native kind has them 
in clusters at the end of the branches. It 
rarely grows into trees like the latter but 
seems best adapted for rambling over rocks 
and_ shrubs.

The Nasturtium Pest of 1908 
MY experience, covering more than 
N 
J twenty years, I have never before 
known nasturtiums to be infested with insect 
pests of any kind, but must confess that this 
season many of my vines have been simply 
covered with black lice. This, I think, 
is all owing to the season, for the pea louse 
is always at its worst during extremely dry 
weather. The chances are ten to one that 
nasturtiums will not, for several years to 
come, be again infested by this terrible 
pest. 
All our vines were cut off and burned, 
and the ground in which they were growing 
thoroughly limed and covered with tobacco 
stems in order to kill any of the lice that may 
have fallen from the plants during the 
process of cutting. In this way we hope 
to put down any chance of a recurrence 
the coming season.
