Chron.,' 1845.) This plan acts by poisoning and burying the " Eed Spider" in the walls, and also by putting a band in the way of such as have been wintering under stones and rubbish, so that they will not care to cross to get at the tree; other mixtures, as preferred by the cultivator, might be similarly used. Clean and properly-pointed walls are a preventive of attack, as is also ground so cultivated and attended to that there shall be no neglected surface the mites can lurk in, or hiding-places under stones, clods of earth, or rubbish beneath which they can hybernate. An autumn dressing of gas-lime would be a desirable application to neglected borders where there are in- fested wall-fruit trees. If by means of experiment it should be found that there is any fluid capable of dissolving the Red Spider's webs without at the same time injuring the leafage, we could thus, by clearing off its breeding-grounds, probably get rid almost entirely of the pest. Hop and Lime-tree Red Spider. Tetmnychus tiliarum, Miill.; T. tclarim, Claparede. This attack is just mentioned, as an outburst of a special pest of this kind in special states of weather is of practical Red Spider of Lime-trees: web with eggs in dried state, and after being moistened, all greatly magnified. Opinions differ as to whether the "Red Spider" of the Lime-tree is the common " Red Spider," T. telarius, or a dis- tinct species, T. tiliarum (so named, from infesting the Lime), but which is also at times injurious to French Beans and some other
