NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Fall and Winter Work Against 
Gypsy and Brown-tail Moths. 
Superintendent Kirkland, for the 
suppression of the gypsy and brown- 
tail moths, is getting ready for the 
falland winter campaign against the 
pest, and to that end he is sending to 
the mayors and selectmen, tree war- 
dens and superintendents of the moth- 
suppression work, throughout the 
infested district, which now includes 
Essex and Suffolk counties, most of 
Middlesex and Plymouth counties 
and the eastern part ofNorfolk. 
These posters are to be put up in 
conspicuous places, such as_ stores, 
post-offices and railroad stations in 
order that the public may become 
familiar, first, with the appearance of 
the moths in fall, winter and early 
spring ; and second, with the approved 
methods of fighting them. This is 
a part of the present plan of state 
work against the moths, which pro- 
vides above all else for local work and 
seeks to lay the responsibility of the 
initiative upon the individual citizen. 
We are glad to print here a copy of 
the poster so that all may see along 
what lines the commission intends to 
work. 
“FALL AND WINTER WORK AGAINST 
Gypsy AND Brown .TatL Motus — 
The destruction of these pests by 
property owners is now required by 
law. During the fall, winter and early 
spring these insects are dormant and 
can be easily found and destroyed. 
“Gypsy Morua— The gypsy moth 
winters in the egg stage. The egg 
clusters are yellow, generally oval in 
outline, and can be found on trees 
(chiefly ), houses, walls, fences, etc. 
«‘ REMEDY — Soak the egg clusters 
thoroughly with creosote mixture 
applied with a small brush. Never 
scrape off egg clusters. 
“ Brown Tart Motu — The brown 
tail moth winters in caterpillar colo- 
nies, spun up in dead leaves at the 
tips of the twigs of fruit and shade 
trees. 
“RemMEDY—Cut off and burn the webs 
or nests, taking care that none are 
left on the ground. A long-handled 
pruner is the best tool for this work. 
‘‘TMPORTANT — The work against 
the gypsy moth should begin at once , 
against the brown tail moth as soon as 
the leaves fall. By doing this work 
thoroughly you will save yourself the 
expense of having it done later by the 
local officials.” 
Bulletin No. 1, issued by the State 
Superintendent concerning these in- 
sects, gives full information, and may 
be had on request. For further in- 
formation apply to A. H. Kirkland, 
superintendent for suppressing the 
gypsy and brown tail moths, 6 Beacon 
street, Boston.
