CICADA lSI-KA-DA)

A large insect. sometimes known as the harvest fly. It is one of the noisicst of insects, and in late summer it is heard in the trees making its peculiar rattling notes on the three drum-like membranes which are attached to the sides cf iis body and are operated by the wings. The female lay their eggs in the twigs of trees or shrubs, from which the young droll t0 U19 ground soon after they are hatch-

eround is not well understood. but finally the pupa crawls out upon the trunk of a tree or a spear of grass. its skin splits open along the back. and the full-grown in- eeet emerges. At first the wings

are merely imatery sacs. but in I very short time they expand to their full size. able of the cicadas is the ao-called seventeen-year locust, whose larvae spend from thirteen to seventeen years undergr . Sometimes these numerous enough to do great damage to veBetation.

THE BRITISH ISLES

The influential position of the'l' British Isles in the world is due largely to the manner in which the inhabitants have utilized such favourable geographic controls as a strategic location; a long in- dented coast-line; an invigorating climate; and an abundance oi varied natural resources, both at home and in overseas possessions.

Human Activities in Relation to Controlling Factors:

1. Groups of manufacturing cit- ies have arisen because oi proxim- ity? to coalflelds, oceans, and mar- e s

2. Manufactures of iron and steel goods nt several seaports be- cause of coal and iron near at hand; onsc of importing iron ore from other countries near by; iron and stccl goods exported to for- eivn countries.

Manufactures of cotton goods because nf a moist. even. and tern- perutc climate; abundant supplies of cool for power; raw cotton im- ported; markets for cotton goods.

4. Growth of the woollen indus- try because of suitability of pas- tures for sheep with flnc wool; |;mall rivers, giving excellent water f‘

road;

other countries easily ilnported.

5. Manufacture of earthenware. china. and porcelain because of plentiful supplies oi coarse clay, china "lav. and coal.

c. Fishing is an important in- dustry because of need of people for a supply of good and cheap food; love of the people for the sea: excellent fishing grounds; ccnl waters.

7. Ship-building has been devel- oped more than in any other

country because of-'I'he great need of a large number of ships to import foods, and raw materials for manufacture; a great expert trade; the need for a large navy to guard her commerce; available silpplies of iron and coal; contact wi h surrounding seas.

a. The people of Ireland are largely engaged in -‘ gLcattle. sheep, swine, and chickens of the moist, temperate climate throughout the year and the re- sulting fine pasture lands.

l). Importing of great quantities of raw materials because of-In- sufficient supply of raw materials, abundant supplies of coal for manufacturing; sea. highways to many lands; climate condit ons.

1i). Exporting oi manufactured

articles because of-Need mar- kets to pay for goods bought from other countries; natural conditions that favour trade and manufac- turin . 11.x The people of the British Isles are energetic in wink. trade alilid “play, beoause-Ihvllorliifl! C ma .
