Hill visit- the trunk with some variety sticky mixture Is Ineffective, he pointed out, as when the caterpll lars hatch out on the ground, they fly directly Into the air and la; their eggs on the branches. The caterpillars are the youn of what Is known as the hand made moth, a rather pretty, buff colored and mahogany brow moth. About ten days after th moth lays the eggs, they hatch In to little wooly caterpillars whlc cluster and eat out th green part of the leaf, leaving th harder leaf skeleton.

After feeding in this way for about a week, the caterpillars get big enough so that they eat the entire leaf. They stay together, however, stripping the leaves from some of the smaller branches. "As they grow they have to change their skins several times. When this change Is about to take place a group of 100 or 200 worms often will crawl down the trunk of the tree, bunching in a large cluster just below the lower branches. Here they wiggle out of their old skins and leave them in a mass on the tree trunk.

The worms then go back to feeding on the leaves with renewed appetite. "When full grown the worms crawl or drop to the ground where they pass the winter and emerge in June of the next year as the brown moths." i 'otir Held in St. Louis Kidnaping Attempt EAST ST.
