HARLEQUIN CABBAGE BUG (Murgantia histriconica). LAD in a Jacob's coat of many colors, this enemy of the gar- deners has been kpown to many as the “calico bug.” the “fire bug” and the “harlequin. All over the Southern part of the United States, this brilliantly-clad damsel places her family and leaves destruc- tion behind her. The cabbage and related crops look just like they had been swept by a fire | after a vislt from them. The sap is sucked from the leaves and vines. Itis nothing to find 40 to 60 adult harle- Qquins holding a conference on one plant. The first members of the family ar- rived from Mexico end Central America in Washington County, Tex., about 1864 and two years later Louisiana reported 2 visitatton. From then on the family traveled fast and increased mightily. In the South where the weather is more equitable, the family rest not at all and there will be as many as five gen- erations a year. With each mother settling about 50 children on a leaf and in 10 weeks each of the damsel harle- quins will be grown and ready to place her family on a neerby plant, you can see why this family of bugs costs us millions of dollars a year to feed. ‘The eggs are placed on the new plant HARLEQUIN CABBAGE in April, if the weather is warm. They are arranged in two parallel rows and deposited on end, cemented together in groups of 12. They are miniature white barrels with black hoops and in just the right place there will be black spots for bungholes. In five days, if all goes well, there will step from each barrel a small edition of the parents, minus wings. They go at once for succulent leaf and soon are too small for their first baby clothes. ‘These and four other suits are out- grown and in 10 weeks this group of family of their own. They are dresscd in a gay vellow, red and black or dark metallic blue, with trimmings of Bright yellow.

HERE are two types of milk for- mulas, those that are figured to sypply baby with one and one- half ounces of milk for each pound of his weight every 24 hours, and those which supply him | with 2 ounces per pound. When start- | ing baby on an artificial feeding, it is advisable to offer the weaker formulas at first and work up gradually to the larger formulas. This is all explained at length in my leaflet, “Sweet Milk NOW STOP PAIN Formulas,” which any mother may | |have by sending a self-addressed, stamped envelope with her request to | this department. | | In the following letter the baby is receiving the first type of formula and | is showing his dissatisfaction by waking several times at night. The soiution | would be to strengthen the formula and | make baby's daytime rations so satis- | fying that he will not demand to bc | fed 80 many times at night. | Mrs. L. J. T. writes: “My baby, who | welghed 7 pounds 4 ounces at birth, now weighs 1412 pounds. His formula | consists of 22 ounces of milk, 13} of | | water and two and one-half tablespoon- | fuls of maltose. He gets 6 ounces of | this every 4 hours and gets one table- | spoonful of cereal at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., ‘ahmg with the bottle. At 8 am. he | gets 115 ounces of orange julce and 1| |ounce of water. He gets prune juice in the afternoon and one-half "tea-| spoonful of cod liver oil three times a day. He refuses to drink water and wakes up several times at night. Do vou think he is getting enough to eat and is_his formula strong enourh?” Here® are the changes I would sue- gest. Increase the formula gradually by 1 ounce more of milk each day 1 ounce less of water up to 28 ounce of milk, 9. ounces of water and four and one-half to five tabl | the maltose. Put this into five b and offer a bottle every 4 hours in d time and one at night. Your baby is quite capable of taking 7': ounces a feeding. and he’ll be much better satis- | fled with this amount. | Increase the cereal slightly if there seems need for it, but I feel sure that when the formula has this added milk and sugar. baby won't be waking fo often at night. You may dispense with | the cod liver oil in June. Your pres amounts, if of plain cod liver oil, have been tco small. Next Winter offer baby s! least two teaspoonfuls or more a ay. | Refusal to drink boiled water is, in this case, quite understancable.
