Killing it by a wire thrust into the holes it has made, is one of the oldest, safest, and most successful methods. Cutting out the grub, with a knife or gouge, is the most common practice ; but it is feared that these tools have sometimes been used without sufficient caution. A third method, which has more than once been sug- gested, consists in plugging the holes with soft wood. If a little camphor be previously inserted, this practice promises to be more effectual ; but experiments are wantin...g to confirm its expediency.
TURNIP FLY OR BEETLE. The wavy-striped flea-beetle, Haltica vtriolata, may be seen in great abundance on the horse-radish, va- rious kinds of cresses, and on the mustard, and turnip, early in May, and indeed at other times throughout the summer. It is very injurious to young plants, destroying their seed-leaves as soon as the latter expand. Should it multiply to any extent, it may, in time, become as great a pest as the European turnip flea-beetle, which it closely resembles in its appearance, and in all its habits.
