The pests appeared by the billion ang even the school children were-mobilized for the ““June bug war.” The children, on holiday leave from school, collected the bugs in racks, being paid $1 a hundred- weight.

The insects breed in stalle manure, which is now used almost exclusively instead of nitrate fertil- izers. The high cost of nitrate fer- tilizers make their general use fm- possible.
