So far the voracious pest has not been reported seen in Canada, but the fact that it has already put in an appearance in the vicinity of Bangor. Me., has givenrlse to the fear that sooner or later it will have to be copedmwith on the Ca- nadian side of the boundary line.

In habits the Japanese beetle may be compared with the more common rose beetle of chafer, both in its methods of feeding and in its control. Its menace is increased, however, by the rapidity with which it breeds and by the long period of its activity. The grub or over winter stage of the insect causes much damage to the sod of
