Under this head are discussed the general principles which must be observed in fighting insects and the more important insecticides. . Some insects of the year in New York state. This comprises brief notes relating to the comparative abundance, destructiveness and other interesting features regarding the following species: r14 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Eriocampoides limacina, cherry or pear tree sing; Sil- vanus surinamensis, saw-toothed grain beetle; Byturus unicolor, Elaphidion villosum, Galer ucella luteola, elm leaf beetle; Galerueella cavicollis, Notolophus leucostigma, ravages by tent caterpillars, Clisiocampa americana and C. disstria, Mamestra picta, Xylina antennata, anelm leaf miner; Chermes strobilobius, Pemphigus tessellatus, Pulvinaria innumera- bilis, Lecanium armeniacum, L. cerasifex, Aspi- diotus perniciosus, San José scale. List of publications of the state entomologist. Gives title, date, place and time of appearance and summaries of 73 publications. - Contributions to the collection. Includes the common and scientific names of the insects and the addresses of the contributors, with brief items of interest. A detailed index facilitates ready reference. In addition to this official report, the following bulletins are bound in the present volume: 20, Hlm leaf beetle in New York state, by Ephraim Porter Felt, giving a life history of this destructive insect and a discussion of the means of destroying it; also bulletin 24, entitled JZemorial of the life and entomologic work of Joseph Albert Lintner. This bulletin gives a notice of the life of the late Dr Lintner, a list of new species described by him, a list of his entomologic publications and an index to the state entomologist’s reports from 1 to 18. This constitutes the entomologic portions of the report of the state museum. Botany The report for the year 1898 of the state botanist, Prof. Charles H. Peck, which appears separately as museum bulletin 25, gives the names of the counties in the state in which specimens of plants for the herbarium were collected, either by the botanist himself or by his correspondents, and gives a list of the names of the species added to the herbarium during the year. Also a list of the names of the contributors of specimens and of their respective contributions. In the recently published Jllustrated flora of the northern states and Canada, many plant names have been changed, so that its nomenclature differs considerably from that of Gray’s Manual. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 1898 r15 This disagreement. affects about 600 names of New York species of flowering plants and ferns. A list of the names of these species is given, those found in the Manual standing in one column and the corresponding names in the /dlustrated flora standing opposite them in another. , _A record is made of species found in the state but not before officially reported as belonging to its flora. This record gives the name of the locality where the plant was found, the month in which it was found and any other matter of interest observed concerning it. -The number of species added to our flora is 57. In a similar way a record is made of species previously reported but concerning which something new has been learned or some observation of in- terest has been made. This part of the report includes remarks on 39 species. A brief account of some of the physical features of the open sum- mit of Mt Marcy, the highest mountain in the state, reference to its climatic and meteoric conditions and their influence on its vegetation and a list of the names of plants found growing there are given. These number 206 species. To this list, remarks are added concerning some of the more interesting and notable species. The final chapter contains descriptions of 12 edible species of mushrooms on the plan of those described in previous reports. A brief scientific diagnosis of the species is followed by a simple de- scription in plain language, as devoid of technical terms as possible. These species are illustrated by colored drawings of natural size on five quarto plates. An index to the report is added. Photography ~ Considerable photographic work has been accomplished during the year, and good negatives have been obtained of the following subjects. By Heinrich Ries Ph.D., views of the clay pits, brick factories, topography and general geology of Long Island, Staten Island and the highlands of the southeastern part of the state. By J. N. Nevius, views of the Quaternary geology and the topography about Albany, and Luzerne, Warren co.; the slate belt of Washing- ton co.; the Hudson river formation about Albany and along the shore of Lake Champlain; Trenton limestone at Glens Falls and near Albany; Precambrian rocks at Littlefalls, Herkimer co., and r16 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Hadley, Saratoga co. The latter has also photographed the exterior and interior of the Sacandaga mining and milling co.’s mill at Hadley; several of the museum’s specimens showing ripple marks, — mud cracks, Triassic footprints, concretions and impressions of rain- drops; and panoramic views of the Helderberg escarpment near Albany. These views are of much value in illustrating the museum col- lections and reports and the negatives are all carefully preserved for reference. | Physiography Three valuable additions to the collection of relief maps has been made. These were modeled by Edwin E. Howell, of Washington D. C., for the New York state museum, and an arrangement has been made with the manufacturer to supply duplicates of them at a reasonable price. A list of these new relief maps with prices will be found in the list of accessions. This collection is of great interest and value to teachers, and will be developed as rapidly as possible by the addition of new examples. Publications issued during 1898 20 Felt, E. P.

Report of the state botanist, 1898 29 Miller, Gerrit S., jr, entitled Preliminary list of New York mammals, belongs to the present report, but by an oversight of paging will be bound with the report of next year Office work In the administration of the state museum the routine office work has been particularly heavy during the last year. Many in- quiries, both verbal and by letter, have received careful attention, and work in connection with the publication of the museum Dbulle- tins has occupied considerable time, as well as the clerical labor of keeping records and making catalogues. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 1898 r17 A card catalogue of the scientific papers contained in the annual reports of the United States geological survey, has been made for reference in the office. | | During odd hours, the work of compiling a list of public museums of natural history in North America has been continued. It will soon be ready for the printer. Mr George Douglas Miller of Albany has removed, to the rooms of the Historical and art society, some of the ethnologic material which _ he deposited several years ago in the rear wing of Geological hall, and, in order to fill the space thus left vacant, the collection of military relics has been removed from the cases in the front of the third floor and placed in the vacated case in the rear wing.

It was found necessary to relabel the entire collection in order to bring it into accord with the latest nomenela- ture and classification. The old labels were in a number of instances incomplete, and sometimes the generic as well as the specific identifications were at fault. No attempt was made in relabeling the collections to change in any way the localities from which the fossils were stated to have come. This can never be done with safety, owing to the wide geo- graphic distribution of nearly all species. Very few forms of life in the fossil world are confined to one locality, though most are limited in vertical range. The same forms which flourished in the British Isles as early as the Carboniferous period grew also in the Alleghany mountain region of the United States, and the same might be said of the fauna as well as the flora. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 1898 r33 Corrections were made in the horizon of the fossils, and addi- tional information was given whenever possible. We can safely infer the horizon when the locality is known and the fossil in question has been determined. Mistakes in the horizon of the fossils had been made in a great many instances. For example, in the British Tertiary all the specimens from Barton were labeled Middle Eocene. As only beds of Upper Eocene age occur at Barton, the correction from Middle to Upper Eocene was made. Many forms marked Upper Eocene are Oligocene, and this change was made and the Oligocene specimens placed in a separate divi- sion. In the same way, a number of forms marked Upper Eocene were transferred to Lower Eocene. This task was made possible and was much simplified by the use of Prof. Richard B. Newton’s excellent memoir on the Oligocene and Eocene Mollusca. This re- port forms one of the special publications of the British museum, and was issued in 1891. The classification of British strata adopted is the one given by Sir Archibald Geikie in his Zextbook of geology (edition of 1898). The marked changes in the nomenclature of the Mollusca have resulted from a more thorough and exhaustive study of this group during the last few years. This study has necessitated alterations and in many cases rejections of generic and specific terms which were applied some twenty years ago. According to the so-called “law of priority,” the earliest name of any organism has preference over any later and perhaps more generally used term. ‘The pre- occupation, however, of some of the molluscan names by organisms belonging to other groups, Vermes, Insecta, etc. has necessitated a rejection of several well-known and largely used generic terms. Among the more important changes recently made in Lamelli- branchiata for the above reason are the following: The name Glycimeris must be used in place of Pano paea- for the former was applied in 1753 by Klein to a bivalve shell identical generically with one from the Pliocene of northern Italy, whereas the Italian fossil was not named Panopaea till 1807 by Menard de la Groye. The genus Pectunculus, applied by Lamarck in 1799, must be discontinued, and the term Axinaea used in its place, as the latter was given in 1795 by Poli for a similar shell. r34 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM The use of Cyprina by Linnaeus in 1766 for a fish antedates the application of the word in conchology, and it is therefore not available. Schumacher in 1817 describes the genus under the name Arctica, and the latter will therefore replace the more familiar term of Cyprina. Another example is seen in the substitution of Meretrix in lien of Cytherea. The former term, given in 1799 by Lamarck, is synonomous with his Cytherea of 1806, and according to the law of priority Meretrix must be accepted, and Cytherea, though better known and more generally used, allowed to disappear. A second reason why Cytherea can not be used now, lies in the fact that in 1805 Fabricius used the name for a Dipterous insect, a fact probably not known by Lamarck. Among the Gasteropoda the generic term H y drobia, founded in 1821 by Hartmann, was used in 1817 for an insect belonging to the Coleoptera, and consequently this name can not longer be ap- . plied. Prof. R. B. Newton has suggested that the term Paludes- trina of D’Orbigny be used in its place, and this seems to have met with approval. » The genus Pteronotus, given in 1840 by Swainson, had al- ready been employed in 1838 by J. E. Gray for a genus of bats. The use of the word for a bat two years previous makes the word unavailable, and Triplex, given by Humphrey in 1797 for a similar shell, must take the place of Pteronotus. 3 The well-known genus Cylichna of Loven, which that author used in 1846, was in 1844 applied by Burmeister to a genus of the Coleoptera, and Prof. Newton has changed the genus to Bul linella, a name of new construction. Other examples might be given, but the above will prove sufficient to show why so many generic terms have been aitered. Changes have likewise been made in the species name. The earliest specific name has acceptance, while all others are considered as synonyms or, where they show varietal dis- tinctions, would follow the specific name as varieties of it. Though many instances of a large synonomy under each species result from this method, it is the oniy way to avoid confusion in paleontologic and conchologic nomenclature. At a meeting of the British association held recently the follow- ing reasons were given why the jirst term used should be accepted and employed : REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 1898 r35 In zoology no one person can subsequently claim an authority equal to that possessed by the person who is the first to define a new genus or describe a new species, and hence it is the name originally given, even though it may be inferior in point of elegance or expressiveness to those subsequently proposed, which ought as a general principle to be permanently retained. To this consideration we ought to add the injustice of erasing the name originally selected by the person to whose labors we owe our first knowledge of the object and we should reflect how much the permission of such a practice opens a door to obscure pretenders for dragging themselves into notice at the expense of original observers. A more thorough knowledge of the anatomy and the phylogeny of a group of organisms of which the mollusca furnish a good ex- ample has introduced in conchology many subgeneric names and varieties. The use of subgeneric terms does not replace the early generic word used for a larger number of organisms, but is placed in parenthesis between the generic and specific names. We have followed this method in relabeling the collections. _ The earlier conception of species was that of a fixed unit, limited and immutable. Cuvier, the founder of paleontology, gave a good definition of this idea as follows. “A species is an assemblage of all organized creatures which have descended, one from another or from common ancestors and of all those which resemble them as closely as they resembie each other ”. Lamarck first showed that species were not immutable, but were derived from one another. Darwin’s later researches demonstrated that species are derived one from another, and that there conse- quently exist between all organisms living and extinct, true rela- tions of parentage more or less removed. _. In revising the collections in the museum and adopting in label- ing the latest authoritative works on the subject, the old names are often put in parenthesis below those now proposed. Where the author’s name is inclosed in parenthesis, it is intended to imply that the author gave the specific term but used a different generic word when he first described the species. The following is a brief outline of my work in thé museum. _ The first three weeks of November were spent on the Mesozoic, Cenozoic and Quatenary collections of the United States. Some of the fossils from the New Jersey greensands were assigned r36 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM by the old labels to localities from which they could not possibly have come. The most noticeable of these errors was found in a number of ‘ Lower marl” fossils (now called the Navesink marl bed of the Monmouth formation) which were labeled “ Shark river”. All the formations along Shark river are of much later age than the marl beds which carry the Navesink fossils. In fact, only the uppermost portion of the greensand series is repre- sented along this river. It is very probable that these Navesink fossils (Lower marl bed of Cook) came from Monmouth county, bnt, inasmuch as their distribution is along the entire Lower marl belt of New Jersey, it was impossible to assign any locality with certainty. Fortunately duplicates of these doubtful locality fossils were found, so that they were removed from the cases without impairing the number of species previously represented. In fact, new species were added by a re-sorting and separation of material. A number of Upper Cretaceous leaves from the Dakota sandstone, found stowed away in cases below, were labeled and put on exhibition. These beautiful leaf impressions, so won- derfully preserved in a rather coarse sandstone, are practically the only forms which we have illustrating the Dakota group of America. The revision of the Cretaceous collection was made in accordance with the late work of Prof. W. B. Clarke and myself on the greensand series of New Jersey. With the exception of the Matawan, we have now representative specimens and fossils from each horizon of the series. The Raritan formation is almost without fossils, and, since litho- logic specimens have little value in a paleontologic collection, we can not well represent this formation. The Matawan fossils are, however, very abundant and easily obtained. The Tertiary collection is much larger. Many of these fossils, especially the Miocene forms, came from the Smithsonian institution, and were in many instances labeled in the original handwriting of the celebrated American paleontologist, F. B. Meek. It was in- tended to save all of these original labels, but unfortunately most of them were destroyed. While the Tertiary collection, as a whole, is large and includes specimens from a number of localities in each horizon, the most needful addition is in the Miocene Gasteropoda, of which the REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 1898 r37 museum has only a few forms. The great abundance of Miocene Mollusca along the middle Atlantic slope, which are so remarkably preserved, should be a sufficient cause for enlarging this collection. Such material as desired could probably be secured by exchange of paieozoic fossils from New York with the large collections to be found in many of the southern institutions. Excellent material is in this way added annually to the Johns Hopkins university col- lections, and the expense of obtaining it reduced to a minimum. The work of revising and arranging the British Tertiary was completed in December. Al! of the specimens in the museum which were relabeled were remounted on blocks, they being covered over with pinkish paper, such as was used in the synoptic mineral and rock collections. The British collection is of interest because it was given in the year 1858 by the renowned English geologist, Sir Roderick Murchison, who at that time was at the head of the geological survey of Great Britain. The Eocene fossils from the Paris basin, France, were presented to the museum in 1858 by W. C. Johnson, of Utica. The first two weeks of January were spent in remounting and labeling this superb collection. Scarcely any locality in the world exceeds the “Paris basin” in the variety and wonderful preservation of fossi- shells, and the museum is fortunate in having so good a representa- tion of them. Where illustrations of the fossils could not be found, I was obliged to accept the earlier determinations as correct. The changes made in most cases contain the older syaonyms in paren- thesis. All of these specimens came .from Daimery, France. The collection of Tertiary fossils from Europe contains 337 different species, which is just twice as many as our American Tertiary. The Miocene is, however, wanting in Great Britain, and we have no specimens from that horizon, though it is well developed on the continent of Europe. The task of relabeling the British Eocene and Oligocene was simplified by the use of Prof. R. B. Newton’s report previously mentioned. The following specimens labeled as coming from the European Kocene do not agree either with the horizon or the locality assigned to them by Newton in his memoir. r38 10 (Li 12 13 14 15 16 17 NEW YORK STATH MUSEUM LOWER EOCENE Astarte rugata Sow.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 1898 r39 The latter part of January was spent in the revision of the Cretaceous fossils from Great Britain. After this was completed the Jurassic fossils were relabeled and arranged, and, as this division was so large and the number of species so great, nearly the entire month of February was spent in this task. A recently purchased. collection of Tertiary shells from a deep well boring at Galveston Tex., was put in gilass-covered boxes, which were filled with black. cotton for a background. This method of mounting was necessary on account of the small size of the shells, which were too mimute to be seen distinctly in any other way. The work of relabeling the European collection was continued during March and completed as far as the Upper Carboniferous or coal measures. A large number of. plants from the coal fields of Enzland were unlabeled, and many of these were determined and labeled. The authority for this work was the Catalogue of the paleozoic plants in the department of geology and paleontology, British museum, by Robert Kidston, a work which appeared in 1886. In the revision of the British collection of fossiis, the im- portant memoirs published by the Paleontographical society made the task comparatively simple. Many other reports were consulted, such as Agassiz’s Povssons fossiles, Phillips’s Geology. of York- shire, Brogniart’s Histoire de vegetables fossiles, Lesquereux’s Coal flora of the Carboniferous formation in Pennsylvania, Fontaine and White, Permian or Upper Carboniferous flora, and mono- graphs by English specialists on the brachiopods, echinoderms and mollusea. It is believed that the collections, as far as studied, relabeled anc remounted, are thoroughly up to date, and will not require at any future time any farther study. The different divisions of the formations have been kept separate, and the proper stage name placed at the head of each division in large black letters.. The labels are all lettered in waterproof india ink on pearl colored card labels, and are a great improvement over the former finely written labels, all becoming indistinct and fading with age. This alone is worth a good deal, and the names of the specimens can now be read at a glance at some distance away. I wish to thank the director, Dr F. J. H. Merrill, for his kind . assistance and his help in securing everything needful for my work, r40 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM and trust that the results will prove in every way satisfactory. A catalogue of the species and number of specimens and their localities was typewritten. In addition to this laborious task, a synopsis of all the genera and species of fossils contained in the whole musenm has been made out together with the number of specimens in each case. The results of this synopsis show that there are in the museum at the present time a total of 3490 American and European species, represented by 12,220 specimens. ‘This is a very large and valuable collection, worthy of careful study by all interested in paleontology. Trusting that it may be possible to finish this work at a later time, and thanking the director for his kindness in making this revision possible, I remain Respectfully yours Reurus M.

GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLACID REGION INTRODUCTION The following outline of the geology of the region about Lake Placid has been prepared from notes which were taken while the writer was in the field, first under the direction of Prof. James Hall, state geologist and later under that of Dr Charles D. Wal- eott, director of the United States geological survey. Acknowl- edgments are due both these gentlemen for permission to use the observations. It has been the writer’s aim to give an observer, and specially a teacher who might be sojourning in the region, a grasp of its larger geologicfeatures,and tosuggest the topicsinregard to which our present knowledge needs amplification. The writer’s attention has been thus far chiefly centered on the hard crystalline rocks as distinguished from the incoherent sands, gravels and moraines that rest on them. Much remains to be done in the study of these last named, for they give the clue to the recent geologic history of the valley and by a careful study of them and by dis- _tinguishing moraines, deltas, abandoned lake bottoms and their respective altitudes some interesting problems in geographic geology may be solved. GEOGRAPHIC OUTLINE If an observer stands on an elevated point near Lake Placid, _with the relief map which will be found opposite p. 62 in hand he will note that the region about him lies to the northwest of the ‘great central group of peaks, which constitutes the backbone of the Adirondacks. The Gothics, Marcy, McIntyre and their neigh- bors form the southeastern sky line and a broad, open valley lies between their foothills and the lake itself. Whiteface, one of the highest peaks bounds the lake on the north and with tts spurs incloses the valley in this direction. Beyond White- face, the mountains decrease rapidly in size, and. although for many miles the country is wild and rugged, the altitudes gradually decline to the plain that forms the south bank of the 52 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM St Lawrence river. The eastern side of the Lake Placid valley is chiefly formed by the fine massif of Sentinel mountain, whose northwestern spur is cleft from Mt Whiteface by the Wilmington Notch, and whose southern is similarly separated from Pitchoff mountain by the narrow pass through which runs the old but now abandoned road to the Keene valley. Pitchoff is in turn split off from Cascade and Porter mountains by the Cascadeville Notch, likewise a precipitous pass. It may be farther remarked that if one goes out to the south one must take the trail through - Avalanch pass, another narrow cleft in the mountains, or else the still more famous Indian pass, which lies on the west side of Mt McIntyre, and which is in many respects the most impressive of all the Adirondack passes. To the west the country is more open, and in driving to Saranac, a broader valley with much lower hills surrounding it is met. The present lack of topographic maps of this section has prevented its accurate study as yet, although its character can readily be seen by a drive or a walk. The drainage of the Lake Placid valley passes out through the west branch of the Ausable river and enters Lake Champlain through the famous Ausable chasm, just north of Port Kent. The valley lies therefore in the St Lawrence drainage basin, but is near its southern limit. The headwaters of the Hudson are in Avalanch pass a few miles to the south. In its smaller features the valley south of Lake Placid is to a great degree a plain of sand and gravel, now quite deeply dis- sected by the various streams which cut across it. Flat-topped hillocks, the stumps of the former general level remain and. enable one to fill out its former conditions. Occasional moraines of sand and boulders, such as the one on which the Lake Placid hotels are built, diversify the surface, but the general ae is that of a plain, whose relief is due to erosion. The altitude of the lake above tide is 1864 feet. The West Branch at the High Fall is 1300 feet and at Wilmington village 1000, so that the rapid fall of the river explains the great amount of erosion that has been accomplished. The altitudes of the GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLACID REGION 53 several peaks in the immediate vicinity are as follows: White- face, 4872; Sentinel, 3858; Pitchoff, 3450; Cascade, 4092; Por- ter, 4070. Mt McIntyre, at 5112, can be reached and ascended in a day, and is second only to Mt Marcy at 5344. Of all the Adi- rondack peaks, these two alone, McIntyre and, Marcy, exceed 59000 feet but several others approximate it closely. Of the minor elevations near the lake, Eagle Eyrie is 2656, Pulpit mountain 2658, the two being practically the same, and Cobble hill is 2330. . ROCKS The rocks proper, which include the ‘ hard’ formations: as con- trasted with the incoherent sands and gravel, may be classified into 1) crystalline limestone, 2) quartzite, 3) granite, 4) gneiss, 5) anorthosites or the rocks consisting chiefly of labradorite feld- spar, 6) trap dikes. If we add the incoherent sands and gravels, there are, 7) moraines of unsorted sands and boulders, large and small being commingled, and 8) water-sorted sands and gravels, forming abandoned lake bottoms and deltas now more or less . modified by erosion both by wind and water. Crystalline limestone. This rock is not in large amount bui it is extremely significant in its geologic relations. Reference to the geologic map (cover p. 2) will indicate its presence in only one place so far as known in the town of North Elba and that is near the trail that leaves the Wilmington road at the house of Mr Watson. A small area outcrops in the bottom of a brook. In - the valley of the east branch of the Ausable river, one outcrop ’ occurs in the town of Jay. There are at least six or seven in Keene. The limestone is always a coarsely crystalline variety, and is formed of rather large individuals of calcite, through which smaller crystals of pyroxene, of the variety coccolite, are richly distributed in practically all cases. Graphite is often present and dark bunches of varying size consisting of black hornblende, quartz, pyrrhotite, feldspar and some rarer minerals are frequent. Traces of bedding have been destroyed and al- though the limestone shows as a.rule a banded character, this is the result of pressure exerted during its metamorphism. The 54 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM invariable presence of the pyroxene and other silicates leads us to infer that the original limestone was an impure siliceous variety, and when metamorphism affected it, the silica, lime, magnesia and iron present, became combined in the included min- erais. The limestones furnish the only localities attractive to the collector of minerals and some advice regarding them is, given later under the head of mineralogy (p. 63). In fact loose . bunches of pyroxene crystals, garnets and other characteristic aggregates and masses of black hornblende often remind us when doing field work that limestones must be near before the actual outcrop is discovered. Quartzite. In two or more localities small outcrops have been met of a rock that seems to be excessively altered sandstone. One is on the old road from North Elba to Keene, and is in Keene town- ship; the other is at the Red Rocks on the east side of the Keene valley. Additional ones of small size are met in a minor degree as- sociated with the limestones of the Keene-Jay valley. The rock appears to the unaided eye to be an aggregate of little else than quartz grains through which flakes of graphite may occasionally be detected. When cut in thin section the rock from the old Keene road shows much emerald green pyroxene, and a little scapolite. All the minerals are strained and fractured and have clearly been subjected to great pressure. The outcrops in the two localities specially cited are in or near steep precipi- tous cliffs, that have been produced by faults. The quartzites were doubtless originally sandstones that had . Sometimes carbonaceous matter, and sometimes lime, magnesia, iron and alumnia, sufficient in amount to yield the acces- sory minerals. Along the old Keene road the quartzite passes almost imperceptibly into a gneiss, that may itself be an altered sediment. Granite. In four localities a rock has been met that corres- ponds to granite. One is on the steep sides of a spur of Mt White- face along the trail from the north end of Lake Placid to Franklin Falis. Another is at the High-Falls in Wilmington Notch in the GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLACID REGION 55 bed of the stream. A third is in a hill a mile east of Scotts Cob- ble, and the fourth is in the bed of the East Branch at the cas- cade between Keene Center and the iron bridge a mile and a half south. In each case the rock is chiefly quartz and feldspar, in a coarsely crystalline aggregate. In thin section the quartz is found to be much strained from geologic movements, and the feldspar is the variety microperthite, being an orthoclase thickly set with little spindles of albite. The three rocks above referred to, and the trap dikes to be later described are minor rock formations, nearly all the country being made up of the two that follow next. Gneiss. Under this comprehensive name is included a consid- erable variety of rocks, all of which have however the distin- guishing feature of ‘ gneiss’ in strong development. That is, the light and dark minerals are arranged in rudely parallel bands so as to give a foliated or laminated aspect to the rock. The banding varies from coarse to fine, and is produced by innumer- able flattened lenses of minerals, strung out with their long diameters parallel. The bands curve and eddy at times and strongly simulate the phenomena produced by the flow of a ropy or viscous fluid. The commonest gneiss is a dark, and more or less rusty rock, with abundance of black minerals, set in a brown or green mass of feldspar. When a fresh exposure is produced either by pounding to the core of a large fragment or in blasting boulders and ledges for the improvement of highways, it is seen that the rock is a pronounced green. Red garnets are frequently quite prominent in it. In thin sections this variety is found to be chiefly composed of microperthitic feldspar and emerald green pyroxene. With these in places here and there are varying amounts of hornblende, hypersthene, quartz, garnet, magnetite apatite and zircon. When the quartz is abundant, varieties high in silica result; when it and the feldspar are in less amount, dark pyroxenic and hornblendic varieties occur in consequence. In some gneisses large blue labradorites are quite prominent, but always in rudely lenticular form, giving the general impres- 56 NEW YORK sTATE MUSEUM sion of an eye, around which the dark minerals are ranged like eyelashes and eyebrows. For this reason it is customary to des- cribe the labradorites as ‘Augen’ using the German word for eyes. They indicate relationships with the anorthosites, the next group of rocks. The obscure geologic questions that arise in connection with the gneisses are those which deal with their original condi- tion and the changes through which they have passed to reach their present condition. The gneisses are essentially ‘ meta- morphic’ rocks, and the term means that by recrystallization or by compression, crushing and consequent internal move- ments, or by both combined, they have been produced from sediments or from igneous rocks. It was formerly believed that the foliation represented the bedding of sediments, but it seems now more reasonable to regard it as the result of pressure and of a movement analogous to a viscous flow, that has strung out the minerals in lines. It is quite probable that some of the gneisses and specially those associated with the limestones and quartzites are altered sediments, and it is also probable that those with the labradorite augen are squeezed igneous rocks, but our investigations do not yet admit of their separation in map- ping. The gneisses are colored brown on the map, by reference to which it will be seen that they bound Lake Placid on the east and appear to some extent in the islands on the east side. Excel- lent exposures with pronounced foliation will be found in the cliffs of Pulpit mountain, on Eagle Eyrie and in Sunrise Notch. Along the West Branch they are the country rock. Pitchoff mountain and the southwest portions of Sentinel are composed of them and the ledges on the East Branch in Jay and northern Keene are the same. The boundaries between them and the anor- thosites are not sharp and passage forms are met so that the areal distribution on the contacts is approximate. Repeated ex- perience has, however, indicated both to the writer in Essex county, and to H. P. Cushing in Franklin county that dark gneisses with labradorite augen, often surround areas of anor- GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLAOID REGION 57 thosite and that the transition from one to the other is a gradual one. Anorthosites. The anorthosites may be considered to be the characteristic rocksof the Adirondacks. In their typical cases they consist of little else than blue labradorite and are then a most _ beautiful rock. A little pyroxene, mostly augite, appears as a rule, and hypersthene is frequent. The presence of the latter led Prof. Emmons in the early work of the New York state survey to call them hypersthene rock, or hypersthene, but this mineral is a subordinate one. Labradorite is the great component and the rocks might be fittingly described as ‘ labradorite rocks’, follow- ing a custom prevalent in Norway, but in English the term is not a good rock name. They are sometimes described as norite meaning a rock composed of labradorite and hypersthene, but experience has indicated the scarcity of hypersthene, and here the word anorthosite is employed, which means a rock chiefly composed of plagioclase feldspar. The rocks resemble a coarse granite, the individual crystals being sometimes very large. The typical anorthosites grade into varieties with more and more dark silicates and some of the areas colored red on the map have large and prominent amounts of them. These darker pyroxenic and hornblendic rocks are not anorthosites, strictly speaking but are gabbros and diorites; nevertheless the anor- thosite is the prominent and characteristic variety and is here used with that understanding. The summit of Mt Whiteface and the southern portion of the mountain consists of a variety that contains large amounts of hornblende and pyroxene, together with milky white feldspar. It is so peculiar that we have been accus- tomed in the field to refer to it as the Whiteface type of rock. It is characteristic of this mountain ridge. Despite the peculiarities of the rock, it belongs beyond question in the anorthosite series, and is closely involved with typical anorthosites. The latter are found all around the base of the mountain toward Wilmington and on the trail from Wilmington village, to the summit, that passes over Marble mountain, typical anorthosites appear till - the peak is nearly reached. 58 NEW YORK sTATE MUSEUM The anorthosites have not escaped the general results of Squeezing and crushing that are so strongly shown by the gneisses. On the contrary the feldspar crystals in the area of the map are seldom if ever provided with sharp edges. A blue crystalline nucleus is surrounded by a crushed white pulp of comminuted feldspar, phenomena that will forcibly appeal to an observer as having been produced by pressure on a grand — scale. They are also drawn out into gneissoid foliation in many instances, but this structure is not specially marked because of the lack of dark minerals, which accentuate it by contrast with the feldspar. Often a narrow rim of pink garnets will be noticed surrounding such dark silicates as appear in the anorthosite. The anorthosites in typical development will be found on the west side of Lake Placid, and specially on the hilltop back of the Whiteface Inn. As the Whiteface type they constitute the peak of the same name. They bound the Wilmington valley so far as here mapped, and make up all the central part of the Sentine} range. To the south they become the prevailing rock and beyond the area of the map they form all the high peaks around Mt Marcy. Trap dikes. The trap dikes constitute minor but striking mem- bers in the geology of the region. They are not numerous so far as known within the area of the map. They have been met almost always throughout the mountains, where some great fault line has formed a line of weakness, up through which they have found an outlet from the reservoirs of molten rock in the in- terior. They are all black basalt and in thin section are shown by the microscope to contain plagioclase feldspar and augite, as the most abundant minerals. Magnetite, apatite and sometimes brown hornblende are also present, and more or less glass. A dike occurs about a mile north of Eagle Kyrie. A ramifying and very instructive network of them is well exposed at the High Fall in Wilmington Notch. Others were noted in the limestone area a mile or so south of the Notch proper. They occur north- west of Clifford Falls on the east slope of Sentinel. In the Cas- . cade Notch, immediately opposite the hotel and beneath the ‘cascade’ there is another network of them, and still another in md GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLACID REGION 59 the gorge of the East Branch a mile south of Keene Center. No doubt additional ones will be discovered by observation of the brook bottoms and the writer would be glad to be informed of any that may be met. Moraines. The moraines of unsorted sand and boulders are the most striking evidence of the glacial period. They meet the eye of the visitor immediately on reaching Lake Placid, because the town is built upon a ridge formed of them. Huge boulders . preject from the sides of cuttings wherever the highways have been graded. This commingling of large rocks and fine sands will appeal even to the unscientific observer as only to be ex- plained by the work of ice. This particular moraine is an im- portant one because Lake Placid is the result of it. Like a great dam the glacial drift confines the water to the valley between the hills, while Mirror lake is in a depression in the dam itself. Other moraines are not lacking in the region but as our obser- vations are as yet too incomplete to accurately map them no dis- tinction is made on the map. Some minor points of interest may however be mentioned. In the pass toward French’s at the north end of Lake Placid, and beyond Eagle Eyrie, there is a huge boulder that is 25x 201215 feet, as determined by pacing. It stands by itself in the forest. Others of notable size are abundant on the hillsides south of Keene Center. The boulder at John Brown’s grave is one of the sights familiar to the Lake Placid summer visitor. The.boulders in the moraines are chiefly the hard crystalline rocks already described. Occasionally one finds a fragment of Potsdam sandstone, that must have journeyed in from many miles to the north. Water-sorted sands and gravels. These consist of pebbles and sand in a more or less clearly stratified condition. They tend specially to form level plains and fan shaped terraces. The plains appear to be abandoned lake bottoms, while the terraces are the deltas which entering streams built up in the former lakes. The deltas occur opposite the tributary valleys and 60 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM specially in the Keene valley, two or three distinct sets can be recognized. Similar phenomena on a small scale can be recog- nized in the present lakes. The open valley south of Lake Placid gives much evidence of having once been a lake whose waters were held in, perhaps by an ice wall to the north. As earlier stated the stumps of the sandy plain, and the deltas need to be correlated as regards altitudes before we can be sure of the conditions surrounding the former lake. The valley in which the town of Wilmington lies is a strik- ing case of a lake basin, and not less significant are the lake bot- toms and deltas in the Keene valley and in the Elizabethtown valley. The latter is almost diagrammatic. Geologic age. The hard crystalline rocks are of pre-Cam- brian age, with the possible exception of the trap dikes. If the word archean is used in the original sense as proposed by the late Prof. Dana, for the formations that precede the fossiliferous strata, then the Lake Placid crystallines are archean. But if, as has been more recently proposed by the United States geologi- cal survey, the name archean is restricted to those ancient rocks that antedate all sediments, then the local formations must be called Algonkian, a name that applies to pre-Cambrian rocks that are sedimentary, or, if igneous, that are later than known sedi- ments. . + et Fa The name Laurentian has been widely employed for the ancient crystalline rocks in the text-books on geology, and as it was orig!- nally used in Canada for rocks geographically and geologically related to those under consideration here, it may be referred to. The Canadian geologists introduced the name Laurentian for the oldest crystalline rocks of the globe, and set off from them under the name Huronian, the metamorphosed sediments and igneous rocks that rest upon the Laurentian around Lakes Superior and Huron. With the exception of the trap dikes, the Lake Placid rocks are all Laurentian, but no Huronian rocks are known in the region. Fairly extended observation throughout the Adirondacks has led to the conclusion that the limestones, quartzites and probably GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLACID REGION 61 some of the- gneisses are the oldest rocks present. They repre- sent the remnants of a once extended series that formed all the country. They have been invaded and broken up into small de- tached areas by the igneous anorthosites. The intrusions took place at quite profound depths in the earth, because the anortho- sites have all the characteristics of rocks that have cooled and erystallized under pressure and slowly. The limestones were much affected by the neighboring masses of igneous rock and may owe to their influence the great numbers of included pyroxenes and other silicates. Many facts otherwise inexplicable are accounted for by this conception, as for instance the presence opposite Cascadeville of a sinall mass of limestone, a sedimentary rock, in a great mountain of anorthosite, an igneous one. The limestone on the north- western extremity of Pitchoff is a still more striking case, while fragments of quartzite have been found in the anorthosites of the high peaks, as for instance on the summit of the Gothics. The exact relations of the granites to the anorthosites in time, are uncertain, but the granites are probably later. After the intrusion of the anorthosites great metamorphism ensued, that crushed the component minerals and produced much gneissoid foliation. The rocks were apparently under such com- pression and strain, that they flowed like a viscous fluid, and the minerals became strung out in linear arrangement. It all occurred however before the deposition of the Potsdam sand- stone, because we find the latter to the north and east resting unchanged on the older metamorphic rocks. The trap dikes were certainly intruded after the metamor- phism, for they show no evidence of having been squeezed or sheared. In the region to the north, H. P. Cushing has found dikes that cut the old crystallines, but stop at the Pots- dam, and do not penetrate it. He therefore has concluded that they were intruded before the Potsdam was deposited. The writer has found others in the Lake Champlain region that pierce strata even as late as the Utica slate. Clearly therefore two series are present in the mountains, but to which of the two 62 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM the dikes around Lake Placid belong, we can not say from the local evidence. ‘As to what took place in this region in the long interval of time represented by the paleozoic and mesozoic eras and the tertiary period, we can but imagine and most imperfectly. Whether the mountains were leveled off, submerged and buried under strata that have since been removed, or whether they were a land area, that suffered great denudation and furnished material for later sediments, we have slight means of knowing. For the later paleozoic and for the mesozoic and tertiary the latter supposition is the more reasonable. Careful study of the physiography may throw some light on the tertiary or even on the later mesozoic times, if remnants of old drainage systems can be made out. Pre- sumably their outlines were not so very different from the pres- ent ones. At some time in this interval the great faults were developed that have served to block out the individual mountains and val- leys and that are the primary causes of the relief and of the present drainage. The crushing of the rocks from the faulting gave the rivers their easiest lines of erosion. This inference is corroborated by the cracked and jointed condition of the rocks in the channels, where exposed, and by the steep, precipitous cliffs in the passes, which are due to the scaling off of platy masses along the old lines of fracture. These movements may have occurred in quite recent geologic time, but in no case have we found faulted glacial deposits. With the opening of the quaternary period came the invasion of the continental glacier and the production of the moraines, boulders and beautiful glacial amphitheaters or cirques on the slopes of Whiteface and Sentinel. The boulders of Potsdam sandstone indicate a movement from the northeast, and the few glacial striae that have been met corroborate the inference. They are not common in the area of the map and should be looked for with care and their directions should be taken with a compass. The configuration of the mountain slopes is strikingly charac- teristic of ice action, and if the reader will observe on the relief wy 4 he a eae 7 > GEOLOGY OF THE LAKE PLACID REGION 63 map, opposite p. 62, the eastern front of Whiteface for example, he will be impressed with the amphitheaters, setting back against precipitous walls, that are everywhere present. The same is true of Sentinel mountain about the headwaters of Clif- ford brook. Ice appears to have stood in these recesses and to have worked the sides back to the comparatively steep walls which confront us to-day. The open space or ‘ bergschrund ’, that usually intervenes as a huge crack between the ice of ‘a glacier and its inclosing wall, is a place of specially active disintegration of rock. The thaw by day is succeeded by freezing during the night and the walls scale off to a fairly vertical condition with ex- ceptional rapidity. ‘An amphitheater with steep walls results, which is a favorite form for the Adirondacks, being well shown on Giant, on the Gothics and not a few other peaks. The melting of the ice sheet and its retreat, the temporary blocking of lines of drainage and perhaps general submergence of the region led to the production of lake basins, with their attend- ant deltas and sand plains, now a most suggestive feature of the landscape, but observations, as already stated, have not yet been made in sufficient detail to work out their number, succession and relative altitudes. MINERALOGY The larger formations present little that is attractive to the collector of minerals. The labradorite crystals of the anortho- sites occasionally reach such dimensions and perfection of de- velopment as to exhibit the characteristic twinning striations on cleavage faces. Rarely they show the characteristic play of colors of the labradorite from eastern Canada. The included masses of limestone are much more prolific. At Cascadeville beautiful light green coccolite is distributed through white calcite. Small dark brown or black garnets are associated, but neither the garnet nor the pyroxene possesses good crystal boundaries, as the individuals have the rounded or corroded aspect, so often seen on minerals contained in lime- stone. 64 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM In earlier notices of this locality zircon and vesuvianite are mentioned but the writer has been unable to find them. Mag- netite with included pyrites is available near the Cascade. At the Weston mine in Keene, magnetite, yellow and brown garnets and pyroxene are quite abundant but the forms are rude in outline. In limestone areas outside the limits of the map, good crystals of pyroxene, titanite, hornblende and quartz can sometimes be freed by acid from the inclosing calcite. They are found in the bunches of silicates that are included in the lime- stone even up to large size. Calcite and pyrite have also been seen. They may all be found in the future in the outlying areas of limestone shown on the map, and to these a collector may most profitably direct his search. vale Niel DUEL OX The superior figure points to the exact place on the page in ninths ; e. g. 604 means four ninths of the way down page 60.

Since their inception there have been bought and placed on exhibition in the corridors of the state capitol and in the state library several collections, including articles of much more than a commercial value gathered in their respective fields by enthusiasts in local work. They will be sought and studied by many interested in early New York history. Besides those which are the results oi field work, the state is fortu- nate in its collection of Indian silver brooches, and of the grotesque wooden masks, still used by the Iroquois yet living among us. It is yet more fortunate in having the University appointed keeper of the wampums for the Six Nations of New York. In this way only was it possible to obtain and to save from swift destruction the unique wampum belts now on exhibition, the widest on record. It was greatly desired that the Rev. W: M. Beauchamp who pre- pared the present and the preceding bulletins, should give his whole time to the preparation of others while there was opportunity, but. the moderate means provided allowed but moderate work, and there must be a waiting for results which might be secured now. Three important subjects, however, have been covered in this preliminary way. Should the series be carried on as hoped, there will come ene interruption not unwelcome to many, in preparing an archeo- logic map of New York, which it has been decided shall.constitute the next bulletin. The regular bulletin size will admit less detail than is desirable. Some of the 60 counties have scores of sites, earthworks, hamlets and camps; but not much can be said on each . of these for lack of room. Other counties, however, have little of interest, allowing more space. The many plans of forts which have been secured, will probably be made a separate subject. While Dr Beauchamp has a large amount of material ready for this work, he desires the fullest that may be procured, and will be grateful, in the interests of science and the state, for any information from any source. This should be sent as soon as may be convenient, ad- dressed Rev. W: M. Beauchamp, Baldwinsville, N. Y. What is not directly used now will be reserved for future needs. MELVIL DEWEY Secretary of the Umversity EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES _ The art of making vessels or ornaments of baked clay dates from a remote antiquity. The material is so easily molded that it was probably used without baking at an even earlier day. Sun-dried bricks and vessels are frequent in lands where they could advan- tageously be employed, and the great advantage of burning these may have been accidentally discovered in many places far apart. Without discussing this history, it may be observed that a strong resemblance has been noted between the rude pottery of this part of our land and,the early ware of Scandinavian, Celtic and Teutonic peoples. Not alone does this appear in general form, material and ornament, but in the remarkable feature of the dark hue within and the comparative brightness of the exterior. In aboriginal New York earthenware we can make but three great divisions, the third of which is of small importance. First are those useful vessels whose fragments abound in many fields, but which are now so rare in their complete form. Then we have that remarkable class which gives us our best ideas of aboriginal plastic art, and sometimes even more, the bold or graceful pipes which the natives smoked in days of peace. The third class includes articles of a miscellaneous character, ornamental or useful, as well as some employed in games. These are few in number, and yet have importance in a limited way. As a rule, vessels of stone or of bark preceded earthenware in New York, the latter being in general use only in recent times. Those of bark have left no trace, but we may sometimes infer their use on sites where nothing else is to be found. Potstone or steatite is not rare in many places, but is usually absent from those where earthenware occurs. The latter was universal among the Iroquois family, and was largely employed by many of the Algon- quins. Going yet farther north we find that the Eskimos still use potstone vessels, much like those whose fragments are found beside our 76 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM rivers. They have never acquired the art of making earthen pot- tery, nor have the wandering tribes in the north of Canada ever done so. In fact, the Canadian Indians do not appear to have used earthenware in early days, with the exception of the allied Hurons and Petuns, the Neutrals and the Iroquois of the St Lawrence, all ci these being of one family. At Hochelaga or Montreal, the prim- itive Mohawks made the same types of vessels and pipes before their flight, that they afterwards did in New York. Similar forms appear in the earthworks north of the St Lawrence, and not far from Pres- cott. The nomadic tribes, however, preferred vessels of bark, easily carried but not easily broken. In these they heated water with hot stones, as the Iroquois may sometimes have done. Mr Frank H. Cushing suggests that the angular forms of many Iroquois vessels may have come from the bark originals of their earlier days. Even now they make many large and convenient vessels of bark, which nay be seen in their New York homes. In his paper on Ancient pottery of the Mississippi nies Mr W. H. Hoimes easily distinguished three great groups in the region © lying around that river, with earthenware differing in form and ornaments. In speaking of these groups he said, ‘ The ware of the north is ees distinct, and need never be confounded with the other groups,’ In that valley he placed this group from lowa inclusive, northward. He said also, and our experience confirms this, that the pottery of Manitoba ‘has decided relationships with the ware of the eastern and northeastern states.’ The nations in this northern group made a dark paste, tempered with sand, often eranitic, and the forms were simple, the ornaments being unlike those of the south. This ornamentation ‘consists of cord impres- sions, incised lines, and implement indentations, arranged in figures peculiar to the district.’ This is so marked as to suggest a com- munity of origin. In the paper mentioned, a vessel from Wiscon- sin is like frequent forms in New York. Pottery found in Penn- sylvania and New Jersey has similar forms and ornaments of the simpler kinds, and this is true of a few examples farther south. Even the Pueblos afford fragments with the incised lines and pat- terns found here, but these are not the prevailing style. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES TM) The fineness of the work may depend much on the material, and this varies greatly. That of the southwest is usually finer than in New York, but in many cases here this was selected with care. Mr S. L. Frey, writing in 1885 of an early Mohawk fort in Fulton county, said, ‘The pits from which the clay was taken are at the foot-of the hill on which the village stood; they are abundant all along a little stream that trickles over the huge boulders and logs, and through a tangle of ferns and wild growths of all kinds. ‘The holes were sunk through the upper soil to a bed of stiff, tenacious clay, which overlies the Utica slate at that point.’ We recall no other place where such pits have been observed, but very fine clay was used for many vessels and pipes, some of which have a surface which seems almost polished. The material itself was carefully prepared. In both pipes and vessels may be found frequent means of iden- tifying or connecting one place or age with another, and we give a simple illustration. Figures of some New York pipes were sent to Mr Francis Parkman in 1884, on account of his mere descrip- tion of the Huron pipes of Canada. In reply he said, ‘Two or three of these have almost exact counterparts in the pipes of Hochelaga, preserved in the museum of McGill college at Montreal. Some I very carelessly mentioned as stemless, because they had a short stem of their own, and did not need a long wooden one.’ In this case the-pipes simply confirmed history, the Hurons, the Hochelagans and the New York Iroquois all belonging to the same family. Ifa village had been isolated or unknown to history, the evidence of the pipes would have been important. ‘That of pottery has proved even more valuable in New York, clearly establishing the connection and relative age of some sites. Much has been written on the making and ornamentation of aboriginal American pottery in all parts of the land, but we are now concerned only with our local ware. The ruder forms were prob- ably molded by the hands alone, aided by simple implements, and some of the finer examples were made in the same way. Others seem to have been formed on some kind of foundation, in part at least, and a prevalent idea has been that many were formed within 78 NEW YORK STATH MUSEUM baskets, which disappeared in the burning. This was mistaking the theory. Prof. Wyman, in speaking of the cord-marked pottery of Tennessee, said, ‘ It seems incredible that even an Indian would be so prodigal of time and labor as to make the necessary quantity of well-twisted thread, and weave it into shape for the mere purpose of serving as a mold, which must be destroyed in making a single copy. To this Mr Holmes replied that the nets were removed before burning or drying; adding that in the case of the great salt vessels of the Saline river, Ill., the fabrics were applied after the ves- sels were formed. ‘That these were salt kettles is assumed by many, but it remains true that the early historic nations of the northern United States and of Canada used no salt at all. Cords were em- ployed in decorating early earthenware in Great Britain, and the process has been clearly proved in the United States, though less general than has been claimed. Some stamps were certainly used in adorning much northern pottery, as the impression is very uniform. Corn on the cob has been suggested as one means, and probably other seeds were em- ployed in a few cases. Patterns may have been stitched on birch bark and applied to the surface. Sharp and round pointed tools had their use, either simply cutting or else excavating the soft clay. Besides the grooves or cuts there are usually slightly raised lines caused by pressure, but these do not always appear. Hollow bone was useful, and many a bold rim was pinched between the thumb and finger, or incised by the long and sharp nails of the Iroquois, which they kept in this condition with a double purpose, that of mangling their captives when tortured, and to show that they did not labor themselves. Rarely did they have an industrial use. One primitive process in forming earthen vessels was building up, often with a long coil of clay, afterwards smoothed, polished and decorated when desired. Large crucibles are still made in this way in some modern manufactories. The coiled and simply decor- ated ware of the Zunis is well known, and there are rare suggestions of this here. In decoration animal forms are mostly confined to pipes in New York, but the human face and form often appear on earthen Iroquois vessels, early in the 17th century and late in the EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 79 16th. It was in vogue for nearly 50 years, and might have led to something higher had it not been displaced by the white man’s wares. Early writers are not agreed on some points. Roger Williams, one of our earliest and best authorities on New England aboriginal life, said that ‘the women made all the earthen vessels.’ Daniel Gookin wrote, in 1674, of the fragile clay vessels there, saying that ‘the clay and the earth they were made of were very scarce and dear. The dishes, pots and spoons are the manufacture of the men.’ This showed careful selection of material, whether the men were really the artisans or not. Hutchinson said that the Narra- gansetts. ‘furnished the earthen vessels and pots for cookery and other domestic uses.’ Such wares were often articles of commerce, when they gained a reputation. The Iroquois did not make stone pipes when first known, unless rarely, the clay pipe being then in use throughout the various nations of that large family, but for official purposes stone calumets appear quite early. Megapolensis said, about 1650, that each of the Mohawks had ‘a long tobacco pipe, made by himself, in his mouth.’ Capt. George Weymouth, who visited Long Island in 1605, said “ The heads of their tobacco pipes were sometimes made of clay, and sometimes were only the claw of a lobster; but they were all sufficient to hold as much as Io or 12 of ours.’ Henry Hudson observed among the River Indians, however, ‘ copper tobacco pipes and pots of earth to cook their meat in.’ He men- ‘tioned also copper ornaments and pipes in New Jersey, perhaps mistaking the bronze red hue of the clay for the metal. There are occasional ornaments and other articles of burned clay, but these are rare. Quite rarely, too, inclosures of clay appear in sepulture. An example of this was found on the east side of Can- andaigua lake in July 1893, and in a sandy soil. Three skeletons were found near together, one of which was large and had the limbs drawn up in the usual way. Excepting the ribs the bones were sound. Mr E. J. Durant writes, ‘ They were lying in a stratum of hard burned clay; so hard that it came up in chunks when broken. Plenty of charcoal was in this stratum. Near the skele- 80 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM tons a fireplace was found. This was a hollow in the ground, lined with burned clay, and filled with charcoal.’ Another observer described the fireplace as circular and like a deep bowl, 3 feet across. The baked clay was 4 inches thick, and the charcoal about the same. This rare instance of one use of clay here hardly forms a part of our subject now, but is worthy of note. In the west it is more frequent. Refuse heaps, by village sites, usually contain a great deal of broken earthenware, out of which fine or curious fragments are often taken, and these occur also. in the ash beds of the old fire- places. This is so on some quite recent sites, for while the richer Iroquois obtained brass kettles quickly from the whites, their poorer friends continued the primitive art till the beginning of the 18th cen- tury at least. In some places rude pottery is found at a consider- able depth, from different causes. In fireplaces this may come from the practice of placing the fire in excavations in the ground. On village sites, also, the same difference will be observed in material, style and finish, as in other articles. Taste, skill and the ability to buy, did not belong to all. The fact that the distinctions of rich and poor are found in savage life is never to be overlooked in the study of aboriginal articles, if we would avoid serious mistakes. The difference in the forms of eastern pottery when compared with those of the south, has been mentioned. The long-necked ves- sels of the middle Mississippi valley are never seen in the northern states, nor are depressed vessels often found in eastern earthenware, — although frequent in soapstone. Usually the base is rounded, and the swelling sides are constricted below the top, thus giving an expanded rim of various forms. Sometimes the margin is horizon- tal, but is more commonly angular, with two or more elevations. In section the rim may be angular, circular or elliptic, and is often perfectly straight, or very nearly so, in portions of the cir- cumference. The rim may be simple and narrow, or deep and broadly projecting. It is usually much ornamented outside, often on the top as well, but more rarely within. Ina few cases, however, the interior ornamentation is elaborate and deep. As a rule there is little detail below the expanded top. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 81 The inside is commonly black, and the outside of the proper hue of baked clay, varying much according to the material. Means of suspension rarely appear, but a cross piece of wood within, attached to a cord, may have afforded these. Except in cooking an outside cord would have sufficed, but there are no signs of wear from this. How much and how they were used in cooking may be a question. | They could have been placed on a fire of coals rather than over it, but show few external signs of such use, the outer surface being usually clean and bright. The blackened interior suggests the placing of hot stones in the water, so common a device among our northern aborigines. Many. were probably used merely for hold- ing water, or sometimes grain. Some large vessels were quite thin, and few were adapted for hard usage. There are some which are very small, apparently made on the thumb, and there are occasional examples of toy vessels, about an inch in diameter and neatly finished. ‘These are the shallowest forms of all, and having at times a raised and perforated ear may have been an imitation of the brass kettle. Some of these, however, are from a Mohawk site which seems to have been occupied as early as the end of the 16th century. Very small vessels occur on another site of the same period. In the Toronto collection is a small vessel made on the thumb, and retaining an impression of the thumb nail. This is rude, and the best examples of these small forms are those of the Mohawks. True Iroquois vessels, with the usual constriction below the deep expanded and ornamented rim,appear in some Canadian earth- works a few miles northwest of Prescott. Figures of these were given in the Smithsonian report for 1856, and they are from 4 to 82 inches in inside diameter. Clay disks also occur there, about the size of a quarter of a dollar. These are also found on Iroquois sites in New York, but of a larger size. Perforated specimens come from Huron sites in Canada, and similar disks have often’ been found at Hochelaga or Montreal. They are usually of secondary use, chipped out of earthenware fragments. The earthen vessels found on the site of Hochelaga at Montreal, in 1861, held from 1 quart to 4 gallons. Sir J. W. Dawson 82 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM thought they were ornamented with ‘a pointed instrument, with rings made with a stamp, and with impressions of the finger point and nail around the edge.’ He points to the practice of pastry cooks for modern examples, and adds that ‘ Fragments of pottery from a long barrow near West Kennet, in Wiltshire, figured by Lubbock, are remarkably near to a common Hochelagan pattern, and finger prints as an ornament occur on vessels from the pile villages of the Lake of Zurich.’ A raised pattern is occasional in Canada and New York, and of this he says, “One evidently repre- sents the rows of grain in the ear of Indian corn, and may be called the corn ear pattern.’ A second class he called ‘ the basket and bead pattern,’ which he thought imitated woven baskets ornamented with beads. In this he distinguished the.“ chevron and saltier patterns.’ A rude basket pattern appears in some rude early British pottery. To these he added a third pattern of network, found on the round bottoms of some large vessels. This sometimes appears on the sides of New York pottery, and may come from matting. 1 In a letter to the writer regarding the human faces on the outside of some New York pottery, he said that nothing of the kind appeared on Hochelagan vessels, ‘ unless three rings, two above and cne below, may be taken to represent eyes and a mouth. Perfor- ated clay disks are common. The pipes and vessels which he figured in Fossil men are like those of New York, and detached heads occur here sparingly, as well as the three rings.’ | A few years since Dr D. S. Kellogg, of Plattsburg, had obtaine parts of rims of over 800 different vessels along the west shore of Lake Champlain. These rims were circular or elliptic, and often indented or scalloped along the edge. These vessels were often ornamented from the top nearly to the bottom, and some- times on the inner surface. The bottoms were plain and never flat, and they varied in capacity from 3 to 8 quarts. None had any representations of animals, or of the human face or figure. In his History of St Lawrence county, Mr Hough said that on some frag- ments of pottery a rude resemblance to a human face is seen. He may have referred to the three rings or indentations found else- where near the St Lawrence river. An example of this comes from Springfield, Ohio, closely resembling New York pottery. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 83 Soapstone is common in the New England states, and Mr John J. Alton said, in writing of its ancient inhabitants, ‘I have never seen a fragment of baked clay pottery made by these Indians.’ This is merely negative testimony, for it is found there in some places, and early writers mention its use and manufacture. In Gosnold’s _ voyages it is said of the Indians of Marthas Vineyard, that ‘the necks of their pipes are made of clay hard dried, (whereof in the island is great store, both red and white) the other part is a piece of hollow copper, very finely closed and cemented together.’ The references to pipes with copper bowls are certainly curious, and there can be no doubt of the occasional use of copper in other ways. The pottery in some parts of Ohio closely resembles that of New York, and this remark also applies to some earthworks as well. The natural conclusion, confirmed by early maps, is that the Iroquois family held all the country on the south shore of Lake Erie 300 years ago. It is every way probable that nearly all of Ohio was then in the possession of the Eries and their kindred. The inland homes of the former are mentioned in the Relation of 1648. ‘This lake, named Erie, was iormerly inhabited on its southern shores by certain peoples whom we call the nation of the Cat; who have been obliged to withdraw into the lands in order to get away from their enemies, who are more towards the west. These people of the Cat have a number of fixed villages, for they cultivate the ground, and are of the same language as our Hurons.’ Some of the usual types of clay vessels ornamented like those of the Iroquois, have been found in New York city, near the Harlem river, by Messrs Chenoweth, Calver and others. Some of these are quite large. The largest vessel found in 1890 was 2 feet high and 18 inches in diameter, while others were nearly as large. On the other hand, some fragments were very coarse in every way, and had local peculiarities. Mr W. W. Tooker, of Sag Harbor, said of the earthenware of Long Island, ‘Tt is found wherever we find traces of the Indian’s footsteps. Much of it is ornamented by cords, incised lines, by the impression of the thumb, by the finger nail, and in other ways.’ He restored one large vessel out of 184 pieces, and found two smaller 84 . NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM ones in a grave. These showed basket work. While clay pipes were rare on Long Island, the stems were often found. West of the Hudson river fragmentary pottery occurs on most important sites. In his Reminiscences of Saratoga, 1880, Mr W. L. Stone spoke of the remains of an old Indian pottery kiln, ‘ within the cavities of which are yet found sun dried and fire baked vases, covered with quaint ornamentation.’ This was on the south side — of Fish creek, but may have been one of the refuse heaps often mistaken for kilns. Pottery is frequent there. Dr C. C. Abbott found similar pottery plentiful in many parts of New Jersey, and it seems of general distribution through the north- ern states and much of Canada. A fragment of a jar with an open projecting ear or handle has come to our attention in Canada, and one from the country of the Neutrals has an upward projection on one side of the flat rim, prob- ably meant for a handle. Vessels with raised and corrugated bars occur there also, identical with New York specimens of the early part of the 17th century. This is Dawson’s corn ear pattern. The flaring angle at one end, suggestive of a pitcher, appears on a well ornamented Canadian vessel, 42 inches across, and has its counter- part in New York. So many Hurons were adopted by the Iroquois — that these national or local forms in vessels and pipes would be _ expected here at the period of the Huron downfall, even as we find them. Simply as members of one great family there would be strong resemblances. Thus there is in the Toronto collection a peculiar Huron pipe, with characteristic human head and arms, which is frequent in New York only on Seneca sites, where an entire town was formed of Huron captives. Those with entwining serpents and with a snake- head bowl, are common to both regions. The spiral stem found among the Senecas was occasional among the Hurons, and corded bowls and bird pipes belong to Huron and Iroquois alike. The bold and remarkable pipes of Jefferson county, with a large human face before and behind the bowl, are also found in Canada. Owl pipes were made by the Petuns and by the Oneidas, and the long stems, with lines and elliptic indentations were everywhere popular. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 85 In another material, a stone pipe from Lake Moira, Canada, closely resembles a slender and peculiar clay pipe from Brewerton, N. Y., the very slender stem projecting at but a slight angle from the bowl. A long bowled pipe, with a thin flaring edge, and horizontal groove in front, has been found in Vermont, and is a frequent New York form. Clay pipes are rare east of Lake Champlain, but some would be expected there, as it was an early Iroquois hunting ground, and their war parties frequently traversed the lake, but usually on the western side. In fact wherever they went the early Iroquois carried some articles of clay. They possibly gained some- thing from captives, but their distinctive achievement at about the end of the 16th century, and during a score or more of years after- _ wards, was the decoration of the angles of vessels with human faces or figures. About the same time the Onondagas added to these a few curious and unique pipes. For many years we have made a careful record and comparison of even the ornamented fragments of pottery, placing side by side those from different sites. While there may be a general agree- ment there will often be suggestive differences, sufficient to show a difference in the people or age. At the same time there may appear a close correspondence in certain unusual ornaments, revealing a close relationship in places far apart. We look for these resem- blances and differences in more striking articles or features, but the simple lines, dots and indentations of New, York pottery may help us much. While giving a sufficient number of typical forms of vessels, neces- sarily much reduced, much attention will be paid to mere ornament in this paper. Representative specimens have been selected from . thousands of examples, unique or common, which will give a fair idea of this feature of aboriginal art. Within the proposed limits it can only be representative, but it may lead many to a study which has been too much neglected, and bring about valuable results. In preliminary work of this kind it will happen that some features of interest will not appear, either because unknown or inaccessible. The reader who observes the omission will then understand just 86 NEW YORK STATH MUSEUM what he should report to make our knowledge more complete. Perfect examples of New York aboriginal pottery are specially desired for the state museum, but fragments showing unusual styles of ornament will also be of value and interest. It should always be stated where they were found. In fact articles without a record are shorn of half their value, and become mere curios in many cases. With a good record a simple relic may solve some riddle of history, or bring out truths unsuspected before. This should never be forgotten. In the general treatment of this subject a word may be said on the antiquity of earthenware in New York. The most careful com- parative work has been done between the Hudson river and Lake Erie, and little pottery ‘has been found there to which an age of much over 500 years can be safely ascribed, unless it may be on small hunting camps. The noted double walled fort in Shelby, to which a great antiquity has been given, probably falls far within that limit. With the exception of a pair of Ohio shells, not an article has been found upon it which can not be duplicated on historic Iroquois sites of early days, and this is notably true in earthenware. Many of the earthworks of Jefferson county may be allowed an age of five centuries, though probably more recent, and all are pre- historic in a sense, but some certainly show a knowledge of the white man’s arts. In Chautauqua and Cattaraugus counties the case may prove dif- ferent. These formed a border land, and while earthenware is abundant there, little has been definitely described. Towards Lake Erie the earthworks were quite recent, and those farther inland are of the ordinary Iroquois type. In these two counties are upwards of. 50 defensive works, and the region seems an early center of Iroquois life. A careful study of its pottery might show how closely related this was to other places and later days. It must be remembered that nations of the Iroquois family occu- pied northwestern Pennsylvania 300 years ago, as well as the banks of the Susquehanna and partially those of the Delaware. The Andastes of the French, who were the Minquas of the Dutch, were of this powerful family, and waged a fierce warfare against the EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 87 Five Nations of New York. The Massawomekes of Capt. John Smith, so dreaded on Chesapeake bay, were probably a southern offshoot of the Eries, so that along the principal rivers of Penn- sylvania, somewhat remote from the sea, we may expect to find pot- tery closely resembling that of this state. In river valleys, how- ever, subject to inundation, any flood may expose or bury still deeper objects.of this kind. Their age can not safely be predicated from their depth in the soil. The fairest chronological evidence will come from village sites, and these give no great age to earthen- ware in New York, while that age is an open question still. The question of age and probable population is affected by an- other circumstance. Early Iroquois villages were removed every IO or 15 years, and a liberal allowance of time would give six or more removals ina century. A dozen sites, and often many more, would thus be required in 200 years for a single village. The Mohawks had from three to four or more towns at a time, and the Senecas never less than four. The latter would thus occupy and abandon nearly or quite 50 places in two centuries. It is thus obvious that for any long period of continuous occupation we must reduce the population to a very small number. On the other hand, if we allow a moderate strength to any people we reduce the time of occupation. When this fact is understood, and the true relation- ship of the site known, we arrive at a safe basis for estimating the length of time in which much of New York was really occupied as a home by the aborigines. Without discussing the subject far- ther, attention is called to these facts, for they greatly affect a clear conception of prehistoric times,-and their relations to later days. Chronologically most of the articles here described belong to the 17th century, and the larger part of the rest apparently to the 16th. Most of the first class of illustrations here given are of fragments of vessels, selected out of a large number to show patterns used in ornamenting. All these are of actual size, and being fragmentary there is no need of giving dimensions. Fig. 1 is a rim from Jef- ferson county, where the style of ornament is often hoth bold and rich. The vessel must have been quite handsome, as the ornamen- tation was continued down the sides, below the projecting rim, 88 ‘ NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM which is decorated above and within. The curve of the rim and side is very bold, sweeping suddenly outward from the narrow top and almost as abruptly contracting again, to expand once more. A few others have curves almost as well rounded as this, but usually in thinner vessels. On the upper projection are horizontal lines and those sloping both ways. Below is a row of elliptic indentations, and a series of curved and sloping lines. It is remarkable for its wide and almost marginal projection, though a smaller expansion is not rare. Another rim from Jefferson county has elliptic indentations arranged in curved lines. Fig. 2 has a series of short curved grooves arranged in horizontal lines, and the outer edge of the rim has notches. This comes from an early stockade on the north bank of the Seneca river, where fragmentary pottery is abundant. Fig. 3 has horizontal grooves in which are regular indentations. The grooves are quite broad. Below these are somewhat similar grooves, shorter, sloping in opposite directions, and almost meet- ing at angles. This frequent pattern is from the Seneca river. A rim ornamented on top has similar broad sloping grooves, and below these are several interrupted grooves which are nearly hori- zontal. From the same site as the last. : Fig. 4 is a very handsome fragment, which has a curious double curve, suggesting a singular form of vessel. It is moderately thick. There are indented grooves, both horizontal and sloping, and a horizontal line of large circular indentations. The work is quite elaborate and very neatly done; this was found with the last two. Another with these has a straight rim, showing but a little curve to that part of the vessel. This is a frequent feature, so that it must have been somewhat angular. Outside there is a slight projection, less than an inch below the top, sloping back above, so that there is but a slight thickness at the actual rim. There are waved lines below the projection, which are quite shallow and irregular. This simple rim is not common. Fig. 5. A very plain rim without projection, from the same place. There are very irregular grooves, following no apparent pattern. Itiis somewhat remarkable in this way. Fig. 6 has deeply incised EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 89 horizontal grooves, expanding and contracting, and thus showing a double undulation. This is from the same place. Fig. 7 comes from the same site. There is a plain rim with graceful undulations on top. The horizontal grooves have indentations, and there are cross grooves between these and of the same kind. This fragment sug- gests an elaborately decorated vessel. Fig. 8 is quite like the last, and from the same place. The undulations above, however, have each three narrow grooves, parallel with the rim,and all the indented grooves slope and cross each other, forming a network of diamonds. It is much thicker than the last. Fig. 9 is a rare ornamental fragment from the same prolific site on the south bank of the Seneca river. ‘The horizontal groove is broad, deep and obscurely interrupted. Below this are broad slop- ing grooves, distinctly divided by very sharp and narrow walls. The indentations are deepest and walls sharpest on one side, the divisions rounding and sloping on the other. This may not have been invariable throughout. There are forms approaching this. It is interesting to observe how many styles may be found on one spot. Fig. 10 is from a fort north of the Seneca river. It is a rim placed at an angle in the plate, the long and straight side being the top. All the indented lines thus actually slope. Part of the divisions in the grooves are angular, and part are slightly rounded. Both these styles of indented grooves are frequent, but not in combina- tion. Fig. 11 is a simple zig-zag pattern of small and shallow circular indentations, from the mouth of Dead creek, on the south shore of Seneca river. These small dots often appear, but rarely thus arranged. Fig. 12 is a fine and rare rim from Baldwinsville. It has cross grooves above, sloping first in one direction and then in the other below. These are short. Other short diagonal grooves are below these. The fragment is ornamented within. Other fragments of the same vessel are quite different in design, having many elliptic indentations and waving lines. It is not safe to say how a vessel is ornamented throughout from seeing one fragment. { go NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Pig. 13 is from a circular stockade two miles south of the Seneca river. It is a notched and projecting rim, with two narrow parallel grooves above. The projection is rather thin, and below this, all is plain. Fig. 14 is a rim from a stockade on the north side of Seneca river. The rim is simple, and is angularly undulated on top. Below are grooves, both horizontal and sloping. In a plain space inclosed by these, are several long triangular indentations. A basal groove indicates a slight projection. Fig. 15 is a,fine rim from Jefferson county. There are deep slop- ing notches at the edge, above three broad horizontal grooves. Below these are curved and sloping grooves on one side. On the other are two large indentations above, and several triangular ones below. Then come two horizontal grooves, and a line of deep diamond indentations on the base of the projection. Below this it seems to have been perfectly plain. Fig. 16 is a handsome rim from Onondaga lake, curving grace- fully to the lower part. There are both diagonal and horizontal lines, angularly indented and quite closely arranged. The rim has lines on top, and the whole piece is thin and much curved. Fig. 17 is perfectly straight-sided within. Outside there is.a slight projec- tion of the upper part. On the upper part of the fragment, which does not include the rim, though it may nearly have reached it, are shallow and vertical grooves. The indentations at the edge of the projection were formed by pinching the clay between the thumb and finger. This style of ornamenting will frequently be found. The fragment is from a stockade two miles south of the Seneca river. The vessel must have been large or angular, although not thick. : Fig. 18 is a fragment from a stockade on the north bank of the Seneca river. The decoration remaining is a row of large and deep triangles which are not equilateral. All become deeper from the long side to the broad angle. They were made by the inclined pressure of some broad and straight edged implement. Fig. 19, from the Seneca river, is a very fine rim, the upper part of which has a broad and even slope. This has rows of diamond indentations, narrowly divided in the rows. Below the projection are two hori- EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES OI zontal rows of diamond indentations, narrowly divided as before. Simple horizontal grooves appear below these. Fig. 20 has horizontal and vertical lines of oblong angular inden- tations. The divisions in the lines are narrow, and it comes from the Seneca river. Fig. 21 is a fragment from an early hamlet on another part of Seneca river, and is unique in arrangement and character. Above the usual projection are four short and curved parallel grooves, repeated in a horizontal series. Each series of four is about an inch long, and there are less distinct curved lines below. Fig. 22 is another fine rim from Fabius, in Onondaga county. The surface is quite flat from the upper edge to the customary pro- jection below, where the deep notches are intersected by the slightly sloping grooves. Below the top are regular diagonal grooves, very neat in detail and about an inch long. Both horizontal and sloping lines appear below these, and in a long open space between them is a row of indented rings, probably made with a hollow bone tool. The general character of the fragment is that of much pottery in Jefferson county, whence many of the early Onondagas may have come. The rings are large and neatly made. Bone implements, suitable for such work, are found on neighboring sites. Fig. 23 is from Jefferson county. In the fragment there are three horizontal grooves above, with narrow rectangular divisions. There may have been more than these. Below are three similar grooves on each side, the groups sloping in opposite directions. The divisions in these grooves are more rounded than in those above, and resemble a form of what is sometimes called a corn pattern. In the angular spaces inclosed are lines of moderately large circular indentations. All these ornaments are quite wide- spread. Very little Jefferson county pottery is accurately located, although this is often a matter of importance. Fig. 24 is a fragment of fine material and neat workmanship, from Onondaga lake, where pottery is quite rare on nearly all sites, show- ing that it had little Iroquois occupation in early days. The pattern is of small indented circles or dots, arranged in lines, of which some are parallel and others meet at acute angles. Fig. 25 is a neat and thin rim, very slightly thickened at the top. Beneath this slight Q2 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM expansion is a row of small sloping and elliptic indentations, with nearly horizontal grooves beneath, irregularly arranged. These grooves are not continuous, ending abruptly or tapering to a top, and they have angular divisions. The rim is from the same place as the last. Fig. 26 has a curious and unusual pattern, formed by small triangular indentations:arranged in curved lines. The long side of each of these is convex, and the others concave. The inden- tations cause the intermediate lines to seem raised. This is from the Seneca river. Fig. 27 is a large and finely ornamented fragment from Oneida lake, evidently part of a very large vessel. The pattern is arranged i: broad converging bands, and is such as might be used in bead- work on the front of a moccasin. Each broad band is edged with lines of circular indentations, and similar diagonal lines appear across from side to side. The intermediate plain spaces are nearly as wide as these decorations. Fig. 28 is a rim of very common design. There is no great expansion above, but half circular notches appear in the edge, and lower down are both horizontal and diagonal grooves. Rims are often thus notched, but in very many ways, sometimes merely with a knife or the finger nail. This piece is from an Onondaga village occupied about 1670. It may be said that while the richer Indians soon afforded brass kettles, poorer families long continued to make the old earthenware. Fig. 29 introduces us to a class of ornament quite prevalent from about 1590, or possibly a little earlier, to about 1630, when it com- pletely disappeared. It was the highest achievement of the Iro- quois in decorated ware, nor was it found among all of them, the three Elder Brothers, the Mohawks, Onondagas and Senecas alone using it as far as yet known. None has been reported from the Oneida and Cayuga territory, and but little from the Seneca. Its comparative abundance among the Mohawks and Onondagas lends strength to the traditional early intimate relations between these two nations, through Hiawatha and Dekanawida, both reputedly Onondagas by birth, and Mohawks by adoption. In this ornamen- tation the face or form was molded separately, and then luted on before burning. In consequence the faces are often found de- EARTHENWARD OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 93 tached, or the impressions of the limbs remain when these are gone. The Onondagas reached a higher development in this art than the Mohawks, and many faces have such an individual character, as regards age and expression, that they seem portraits. Two of those grouped here have this individuality. They were often, but not always, placed at an elevated angle of the rim. This is the case in this figure, where a grotesque face appears just below the notched angle. There is a suggestion here of a curved neck, pos- sibly united to a body, but the face may have appeared aloe: ihe fragment is from a stockade in southern Onondaga, occupied per- haps about 1620. Fig. 30 is another fine face from the same site, a little south of Delphi. It is surrounded with diagonal grooves on the surface of the vessel, and has marked individuality. Fig. 31 is another face of characteristic Indian type, appearing on a plain surface. It is from a stockade west of Cazenovia, occupied by the Onondagas about 1600. These large faces are frequent there, and on neigh- boring sites. Fig. 32 is a fine rim of unusual character from the site south of Delphi. There are three neat horizontal grooves above the usual projection, which is formed by deep and graceful curves, edged on the concave part with large elliptic indentations. The design is bold and well carried out. Fig. 33 is from a stockade near Bald- winsville. The figure is simple, pretty and unusual. A row of small circular indentations has rows of elliptic and pointed vertical indentations above and below. Fig. 34 is a rim from a stockade on the south side of Seneca river. The expanded top is deeply notched on both sides, and is somewhat undulated above. Fig. 35 comes from a stockade opposite the last, and north of the river. It is a plain &m, coming to a point above, ornamented just below the top with a row of narrow and diagonal ellipses, beneath which “are narrow, irregular and interrupted grooves. Fig. 36 is part of a rim found east of Wagner’s hollow, Mont- gomery county. The narrow top is undulating, and the sharp grooves are crossed by a horizontal groove near the top. The -angular ends of the grooves are sharply defined. The fragment 04 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM is larger than here represented, and the deep notches at the basal projection are here omitted. This elevated site has some remark- able earthenware, mixed with European articles. Fig. 37 is a neat rim from a stockade west of Baldwinsville. A row of elliptic in- dentations is arranged diagonally above, where the rim curves over to the inner line of the vessel. Below this the deep grooves are separated by ridges crossed by spiral lines. Fig. 38 is a fine and rare piece from Brewerton, angular above, and with diagonal zig-zag grooves on the narrow projection above. Below these and under the projection are broad diagonal grooves, broken by cross indentations. Similar narrow grooves appear below, and a handsome decoration is suggested below all. The same style of ornament is seen within. Fig. 39 merely shows the rim of a large fragment, the top of which has convex vertical pro- jections above the side of the vessel. The side is adorned with the common grooves. This is from the recent site east of Wagner’s hollow, Montgomery county. Fig. 40 is a thin and very curious notched rim from the same place. The general surface is plain, but at the rim there are long curved or elliptic indentations, inter- spersed with shorter ones. It is both simple and rude, as well as quite modern. | Fig. 41 is from the same place, and is the most remarkable human figure yet found on an earthenware vessel. One feature is that most of it was molded with the vessel instead of separately, but this does not apply to all parts. There are the usual cross bars on the body, but none appear on the limbs, which is a departure from the type, as in a later Seneca example. It is also the only one yet found which is not symmetrical in arrangement, one hand being raised in this, and the other turned down. ‘The toes are very long. In this and some other fragments, the grooves baak of the body suggest plumes, and the maker may have taken a hint from the winged angels and cherubs of the white man. There are other out- side grooves variously arranged, with odd features at the basal pro- jection. The face is inferior to those made separately, and there is a great contrast in the two arms. In another from this site, the face and body were molded with the vessel, the body having the EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 95 usual cross bars. There are no arms, and the legs are gone, but seem to have been carried out from the base of the rim, leaving an opening between them and the vessel. There are notches at the end of the projection, and grooved lines above. The nose is raised, and the eyes are small rings. Altogether it is an interesting frag- ment. Fig. 42 shows part of a rim from the double walled fort south- east of Baldwinsville. Deep notches are cut in the edge of the rim, which is ornamented above and within. Fig. 43 is a rim from Rice’s woods, a few miles north of Palatine Bridge, which is remark- able for the very great projection of the upper and ornamented part. It is probable that the plain bowl gradually curved out beyond this, as in other examples. A deep undulating groove runs from top to bottom at the angle, which is raised. Notches appear along the basal edge of the projection, with grooves above, and there is a line of pyriform indentations below the rim. The inside is orna- mented. Pottery as bold in design as this does not appear farther west. | Fig. AA is from the same spot, and thus far is unique. It isa very prominent human head on the boldly projecting angle of an _earthen vessel, which seems to have been much ornamented. The cross bars on the retreating angle beneath are more ornamental than usual, and the broad face, with its wide and open mouth, is more suggestive of an ape than a man when seen full in front. Above the head it is broken, but may not have risen much higher. This was a recent village site where European articles are frequent. The lateral grooves again suggest plumes, and this feature is hardly rare in these relics of the Mohawks, who may have had it from the Dutch. Fig. 45 is from the double walled fort near Baldwinsville. The horizontal grooves had their edges neatly smoothed, while the hol- low part is divided by small cross indentations. With this was a fragment having a line of large elliptic indentations, above which are diagonal rows of fine lines placed side by side. Small vessels are sometimes found which were apparently toys. Fig. 46 is a rude example from Brewerton, which is nearly oval, yet somewhat angular. The depth is 13, and the diameter 1-3, 96 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM inches. It is unornamented, and resembles some found on Huron sites in Canada. The Mohawks made neater ornamented articles of this kind, but they are everywhere rare. Fig. 47 brings us again to the early Onondagas, being from the site of 1600, at the time when the Iroquois league was probably formed, and while Hiawatha lived there. The rim rises to an angle and near its edge are rows of elliptic indentations placed diagonally above the nearly horizontal grooves which come just below. The broad face is not as artistic as some, but is fairly good-natured, as was proper in the days of Hiawatha the Peacemaker. Some of these Onondaga faces are quite pleasant in expression. There are diagonal grooves on each side of this massive countenance, and the edge of the projection beneath has the notches which are so com- mon a feature. Fig. 48 is another remarkable Mohawk rim from the site east of Wagner's hollow, where the potters were persons of ideas and skill. It has no great beauty, but the notches at the base of the projection are unusually large and deep. The horizon- tal irregular grooves cross the broad points left, as well as the plain surface above. Another rim much resembles this, but is crossed by diagonal lines on top. The side ornaments are horizontal and sloping grooves with very deep and long notches. In this, how- ever, the projecting points have diagonal grooves, spreading a little as they descend. The fragment suggests the same maker, but hardly the same vessel. Fig. 49 is a simple but neat, curved and projecting rim from the Onondaga site of 1600. These early sites will be occasionally referred to by their probable dates, the archeologic connection being such as to render these almost a matter of certainty, while the age of any article may be of importance. This pretty rim has two parallel lines on the top, and the edges are notched on both sides. Below these it is perfectly plain. The top is thickened, but the sides are thin and curving. Fig. 50 is a grotesque, good-natured face adhering to a plain surface. It comes from the same site, and is of the largest size, fairly representing one modern form of Onon- daga countenance. Fig. 51 is a rim of thin black pottery from an Onondaga fort on the line of Fabius and Pompey, several miles EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 97 southwest of the last, and occupied but little later. A very few European articles are found there. At the elevated angle is a face, below which is a straight body, reaching to the basal projection. This is grooved across, as usual, and the remaining surface is fur- rowed with rude diagonal and horizontal grooves. The notched base of the ornamented portion projects beyond the general surface. ° _ Pottery from this site is blacker than is usual in Onondaga county, and often thin. Fig. 52 is from the site west of Cazenovia, and, as well as the next, is from a photograph. They are probably about half the actual length, but preserve their relative proportions to each other. The face is very broad and characteristic, being much like that of some Onondaga Indians now. It is immediately under the narrowly pro- jecting and notched rim. The surface has a few diagonal lines, and the basal projection is notched. Traces of ornamentation also appear far down on the expanding side. Fig. 53 is from the same site, and the face is an excellent representation of an old person, toothless and withered. Above the face and below the notched tim, are several.neat grooves. Many faces might be given from this interesting site, the home of the Onondagas at the formation of the Iroquois league. Fig. 54 is a very curious human figure on a highly elevated and projecting rim. It comes from the fort already mentioned, on the line of Fabius, and is very thin. There is a row of indentations just below the rim, and another at the base of the projection. Irregular sloping lines appear between. The face, which reaches the top, is grotesque. The slender body has angular arms, the hands being clasped below the abdomen. Two legs follow the retreating slope below the projection, and are irregularly barred. The cross bars on the body and arms are neater. Similar specimens of black clay often occur on this elevated site. It was a local fash- ion, as in the case of the large faces already described. Fig. 55 is a very small and rude vessel from Brewerton, very shallow and but an inch across. Fig. 56 is a much neater and smaller one from the Wagner’s hollow site, north of the Mohawk in Montgomery county. This pretty little cup, or miniature kettle, 98 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM has raised and perforated ears, as though for suspension, and is ornamented below. Such perforations are sometimes .found in larger vessels, but the raised ears are lacking. These suggest the white man’s kettle, and there are other Mohawk examples of these tiny and peculiar vessels. This is but £ of an inch across. Fig. 57 is a notable rim from an early hamlet on the Seneca river. It is nearly straight, suggesting a very large vessel in every way. There is a slight and rude projection at the top, with cleanly cut diagonal grooves below this. The edges of the usual projection, farther down, have deep and broad indentations, formed by pinch- ing the clay between the finger and thumb. These are quite irreg- ular, as would be expected, and this mode of ornamenting was early used. Fig. 58 is a remarkably beautifully ornamented fragment from Baldwinsville, very much and rather curiously curved. There are broad bands of diagonal lines of small perforations. These perforations are not all alike, but are carefully arranged. Narrower bands of plain surface divide the ornamental portions. The color is black and red. Fig. 59 is a curved rim, sharply notched on the edge. Below these notches are three horizontal grooves, which encompassed the vessel. Beneath these are diagonal grooves. The lower projection is formed of long and broad points, a little rounded at the ends and an inch apart. Such points are rarely seen, as they extend half ‘an inch below the lower curve of the vessel. This is from the same site as fig. 57. If the curve was regular, the inside diameter of the vessel would have been 14 inches. Fig. 60 is a frequent style of ornament, sometimes called the corn pattern, from the idea that the indentations were formed by rolling an ear of corn over the vessel, where desired. It is from the same place as the last. Fig. 61 is a neat rim from Jefferson county. It has horizontal lines of elliptic indentations, and slop- ing lines in a pretty waving pattern. Below these is a horizontal line with angular indentations, and large elliptic grooves are on the edge of the projection beneath. It is ornamented on top and within. A ruder specimen from the same county, is quite straight, with vertical lines of dots above an undulating groove. Below this, EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 99 on either side, are lines sloping toward the center, which is occu- pied by four vertical lines, three of which are connected by cross grooves, forming squares. Fig. 62 shows the edge of a projection, where the hexagonal indentations are both large and deep. There are diagonal lines in opposite directions. Found at Baldwinsville, but rather common in various sizes. Fig. 63 is a fragment of bright red pottery from Seneca county. It is ornamented with hollow squares in curved lines. ‘This is better than most there, it being usually quite coarse. Fig. 64 is a very bold and angular projection from Jefferson eaunty.,.. It has diagonal lines in opposite directions, with large elliptic indentations at the base of the projection. Underneath this the deep curve makes a sudden sweep outwards. Fig. 65 is a rim with undulated edge, from Plattsburg. It has elaborate decora- tions, mostly of lines of circular, elliptic and angular indentations. Much pottery has been collected along the western shore of Lake Champlain, on the sites of camps and small hamlets, by Dr Kellogg, who has also restored many vessels. Fig. 66 is also from Platts- burg, and has a series of diagonal grooves arranged in horizontal groups. These grooves have each three indentations slightly divided. | Fig. 67 is a rim from Jefferson county, with grooves in various directions. There are large elliptic indentations below the projec- tion. The striking peculiarity, however, is the central square, two angles of which are above and below. Within this are three elliptic indentations, arranged as though for eyes and mouth. These are more common in that county than elsewhere, and may be the pot- tery found along the St Lawrence with a rude resemblance to a human face, of which Mr Hough speaks. This came from Water- town. Fig. .68 is another similar rim from Jefferson.county. It has a row of elliptic indentations below the top, and another below the projection. The grooves are much like the last, but in one space are three large elliptic indentations, one above another. The face, if it may be so called, is inclosed by five lines, and the indenta- tion for the mouth is circular. Too NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Fig. 69 is a curiously ornamented rim from Oswego Falls. It is quite light in color, and has a double row of large indentations on top. On the edge are vertical and curved notches or grooves. Three lines of ellipses are below these, and then several rows of somewhat arrow-shaped indentations, lapping one on another. Fig. 70 is the larger part of a vessel from the Otstungo site, near Fort Plain. The lower part is neatly rounded, and the ornamented part now occupies about half the side. This is adorned with hori- zontal, vertical, and diagenal grooves. This part very slightly pro- jects outside of the rest. It probably was not much higher. Fig. 71 is from the same place. It is a much curved fragment, orna- mented by the impressions of finger nails. Such specimens occa- sionally appear elsewhere. Fig. 72 is from Oneida lake, and shows a frequent ornament, unusually arranged. At the edge of the rim are elliptic notches, and below are horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines, with the small and deeper indentations in them which are so common. ‘These are neatly arranged, but the fragment is some- what peculiar in having these continued in another series below the projection. | Fig. 73 is a curious rim from the Seneca river, of a type appar- ently more common in Canada than in New York. The peculiar feature is the raised vertical bars, protruding from the side and passing over the top. These have cross grooves, and come to a point above the rim, making deep notches in it. There are irregular vertical lines between these bars, which latter project 53; of an inch above the general surface. The rim is thickened and orna-- mented within. The fragment is the projecting upper part of the vessel, which was quite thin below this. The vertical lines pass over the rim and within, making a scalloped edge. Fig. 74 is from Brewerton, and has diagonal zig-zag grooves above, giving it a rich appearance. Below are horizontal mold- ings, with lines of diamond indentations. Fig. 75 is a neat, notched rim from Onondaga lake, ornamented on top. The undulating lines give it somewhat the appearance of Zuni ware. Fig. 76 is a fragment from the same place. It has an eccentric pattern of curved and irregular grooves, with some sharp angles, very difficult EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES IOI to describe. It is unique. Fig. 77 shows part of a large fragment from a fort on the north side of the Seneca river. The rim has long and sloping grooves, with horizontal lines below. One of the bars between these lower grooves has deep and regular indentations on the lower side, a very unusual feature. Fig. 78 shows part of a very fine rim from the Garoga creek fort in Fulton county. It is notched and ornamented within. The indentations on the outside, just below the top, are both ellipses and diamonds. | Six horizontal grooves are beneath these, and still lower are diagonal grooves extending into the deep notches which mark the edge of the bold projection. The curve is so slight that the vessel must have been large. A large and fine fragment from the same place shows the impression of the detached human body, and one of the very long arms remains. This site may not date far from 1600, as a tubular brass bead was found there, and it is one of the three oldest known Mohawk forts. Fig. 79 is part of a rim ‘from another of this early trio, the fort near Fort Plain. A small _ part of this is given to show the vertical double curves which make the upper part of the pattern, and which are sharply indented. Below are diagonal grooves. Fig. 80 is from a drawing furnished by Mr R. A. Grider, of Cana- joharie. It represents a vessel from West Bloomfield, Ontario county, now in the state museum. This, of course, is of Seneca make, and the fact that there are faces at the angles, gives it unusual interest, partly because such vessels are usually fragmentary, and partly as showing that the Senecas also made these peculiar Iro- quois vessels. It might be dated between 1600 and 1630. The rim has raised angles, and it is described as half size. Another, from the same district, has a human figure in full relief. Fig. 81 is a fragment from a stockade on the north side of Seneca river. The pattern is simply of circular indentations, closely ar- ranged in lines which are mostly diagonal. Fig. 82 is a smail fragment from Pierrepont manor, Jefferson county. There is a flat projection from the surface above and below. On the upper part of this, and below it, are lines of elliptic indentations. Part of the projecting surface has narrow horizontal grooves finely divided. 102 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Fig. 83 is a fragment from the double walled fort near Baldwins- ville. There is a horizontal line of moderate sized crescents, and another of ellipses. Others like this occur, and the grooves, with deeper, rounded indentations, are frequent. Fig. 84 is a vessel found a mile west of Fort Plain. It is a well- rounded vessel with a moderately projecting rim. There are two moldings at the top, and below these a row of elliptic indentations. The projection is neatly notched, and there are vertical grooves in the plainer surface just below. It is 4% inches deep, and 54 in diameter. Fig. 85 is a double cup from the hill east of Wagner’s hollow. The base is uniform, but there are two constrictions above, where the two cups open at an angle. This rare article is ornamented with diagonal and vertical lines, and is 13 inches across. Fig. 86 is also from the bluff near Wagner’s hollow. It has deep diagonal grooves, crossed by those which are horizontal, thus form- ing lines of angular projections. The usual basal projection is deeply notched. Fig. 87 is a rim from Oneida lake, decorated with horizontal and sloping lines, and with the basal projection notched. Several large rings, with smaller ones inside, are also arranged in a sloping line. This feature is that of the Jefferson county pottery, not much far- ther north, and it probably came thence. Fig. 88 is a fine rim from the Otstungo site, near Fort Plain. It has notches within and on top. From the top there is a broad slope outward to the prom- inent projection, which is deeply notched at the edge. This broad surface is divided into checker work by diagonal grooves, sloping both ways at right angles. The work is neat. Fig. 89 is from the fort west of Cazenovia, and is taken from a photograph. The length was probably double that of the figure. It is part of a very broad and short human body, laid on the orna- mented vessel in the usual way. The lower limbs show little more than the feet, and the whole figure may have been grotesque. Fig. go is arim from Henderson Harbor, in Jefferson county. The edge of the rim is finely and neatly notched, the remainder of the sur- face being adorned with horizontal and diagonal lines of varying width. The prominent feature is two lines of crescents, sloping in opposite directions between the diagonal grooves. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 103 Fig. 91 is made from Mr R. A. Grider’s drawing of a Seneca vessel, now in the state museum. It is of full size, and came from West Bloomfield, Ontario county. The same projecting and deeply notched rim appears sometimes farther east, as well as the triangular indentations surrounding the vessel in a single row below. Curved grooves, arranged diagonally, appear on the rim between the top and the graceful notches below. Fig. 92 is a perfect vessel from Cayuga county, of actual size. It has an undulating and expand- ing simple rim, with two opposite elevations. There are elliptic indentations below the edge, reaching all around, and the whole sur- face is slightly furrowed from top to bottom. It is from Scipioville, where many of the relics are at least as late as the latter part of the 17th century. Fig. 93 is a fragment found near the head of Onondaga lake, at a spot known as Kaneenda, and occasionally occupied about 1700, as well as much earlier. Small human faces occur. there on ves- sels, of the type found at the fort on lot 69, Pompey, a place of national residence about the year 1630. This stronghold brought the Onondagas nearer to this lake, and they partially made it a new fishing place. The fragment represented has a small and peculiar Ornament on an otherwise plain surface. ‘There is a line of very small rings, with a curved line above each one, coming to an angle behind, much like a representation of the human eye. No age can be assigned to this. Fig. 94 is a small but finely formed Mohawk vessel, found in a Montgomery county grave, along with iron axes, beads and other modern articles. It is oblong, and the lateral rim is deeply curved, rising into a high and obtuse point at the ends. The rim is notched above and on the sides. A broad groove sweeps along beneath this vertical grooving on the sides of the rim, and grooved lines curve outward to the bold projection beneath. At one end of this projection is another which is vertical and ornamented, anil strikingly suggestive of the prow of a ship. Below these pro- jections the vessel is neatly rounded out, but with rather sudden curves. The bottom is flatter than usual. 104 NEW, YORK STATE MUSEUM Fig. 95 is a handsome rim from the early Onondaga fort west of Cazenovia. Near the top a row of vertical points is crossed by a narrow longitudinal groove. There are two horizontal grooves below this, with diagonal grooves below them. Between these is a row of curved lines, apparently finger marks. Most ordinary pat- terns are found on this site. Fig. 96:is a very neat rim from a stockade on the south side of the Seneca river. The top is nicely rounded as well as notched. Two horizontal grooves are below this, and still lower are parallel diagonal lines arranged in groups with opposite slopes. The basal notches penetrate these. Fig. 97 is a perfectly plain Seneca vessel from West Bloomfield. There is not even an angular projection. Fig. 98 is a rim from the fort west of Cazenovia, which is of unusual design. The surface above the projection is divided by vertical grooves, and every alter- nate space between these is divided into squares by transverse grooves. Fig. 99 is a rim from the fort on the east bank of Garoga creek, in Fulton county. The edge of the rim has a spiral fluting, beneath which are horizontal and diagonal grooves. Fig. 100 is a characteristic fragment from Henderson Harbor, showing the three elliptic indentations so common in that region. The rim is slightly notched across and ornamented within. Most of the outside orna- mentation is of short dashes arranged in lines. | Fig. 101 is a Mohawk rim with a human figure, which is nearly full length, the usual projection terminating it at the knees. The body and limbs have cross bars, and there is an elaborate array of grooves in almost every direction. This is from the fort in Fulton county, which seems one of the earliest occupied by the Mohawks in New York. At the foot of the hill on which this stood, are the clay pits used in making these vessels. Large fragments are fre- quent there. Fig. 102 is a Seneca vessel with a deep rim projecting abruptly from the bowl. There are two elevated angles. The broad pro- jection is ornamented with three encircling grooves, and a row of elliptic indentations. This is from West Bloomfield, like several others figured for this paper. Fig. 103 is a rim from the fort in Fulton county, notched, and with narrow horizontal and diagonal EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 105 grooves. Below the uppermost of these is a row of fine dots. Fig. 104 is part of a rim found northeast of Canajoharie. The upper part has a row of inscribed chevrons, with horizontal grooves below. The full fragment has also diagonal lines. Fig. 105 is from another Mohawk fort of the same period, that near Fort Plain. It is a plain rim as far as elevation or expansion is concerned, and is orna- mented with two lines of circular indentations, separated by a hori- zontal groove. Fig. 106 is a mane rim of unusual character, found with 104. The undulating upper edge is deeply notched, and below this are three grooves. Then comes a wide and thin projection, with deep and graceful notches, forming a closely sinuous line. Fig. 107 is a rim from the fort near Cazenovia. It has two lines on the top and is notched within and without. Outside is a thin and rather broad projection, with an undulating edge. Fig. 108 is a rim found near Palatine Church, Montgomery county. Itis adorned with various grooves, and has a human figure which has lost its head. The customary projection cuts off the legs at the thighs. The hands and fingers are well defined, and there are the usual cross bars. Pig. 109 is a rim from Rice’s woods, north of Palatine Bridge. It is ornamented with a row of long and vertical ellipses, with broader ones at the projection. Fig. 110 is an angular rim from Jefferson county. The principal ornaments. are broad grooves, whose cross divisions suggest the impress of a row of corn, but they are uneven, and sometimes irregularly curved. The style is bold rather than elegant. Fig. 111 is from the same county, as might be inferred from the three rings in the usual position. On either side of these are nearly vertical but curving grooves, and there are notches on the edge of the projection. Fig. 112 is from Montgom- ery county, north of Palatine Bridge, and has the chevron pattern just below the rim, but this is indented in a different way from the other example given. There are broad horizontal and diagonal grooves, and the base is deeply notched. Fig. 113 and the next three are Seneca vessels, all from West Bloomfield, and much reduced. This one is broad, and the rather narrow projecting rim has notched edges, and two parallel lines on 106 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM top. Fig. 114 is plain, but might be called a pitcher form, as the rim has a wide projection in one place. Fig. 115 has a flaring rim, deeply notched on the lower edge. Fig. 116 is proportionately much narrower, but while a smaller vessel the projecting rim is much deeper, and is adorned with diagonal lines and deep notches. Fig. 117 is taken from a small photograph of one of the finest perfect inland New York vessels, as far as size goes, and belongs to Mr A. G. Richmond, of Canajoharie. The ornamentation is so simple that a small illustration suffices for the general character. It was found by an Adirondack guide, some years since, in a cave in Otter creek valley. The contraction is quite near the rim, and there is a simple ornament around this narrow. part. The greatest diameter is below the center, and is 13 inches, being three more than across the top. The hight is 14 inches, and Mr Richmond bought the vessel of the finder some years ago, taking pains to have a certified account of its discovery. Caves have sometimes afforded good examples of New York pottery, and should be carefully ex- amined wherever there are indications of man’s former presence, not alone with reference to remains of pottery, but of other things as well. | Fig. 118 is an Onondaga rim, quite broad, and with two parallel lines on top. The edge is indented within and without. Fig. 119 is from a Seneca river stockade, and has lines of large square inden- tations, a frequent pattern. Fig. 120 is a rim from the same site, deeply notched on the edge, and with diagonal grooves below. Fig. I2I is a rim from Rice’s woods, north of Palatine Bridge, and has a row of circular indentations below the moderately elevated angle. At the angle is a shattered face, with a sloping row of large elliptic indentations on either side. Pelow there are diagonal lines extend- ing to the angular base, which slopes upward on each side from the lower point of the slightly indicated body. This unusual arrange- ment suggests butterfly wings. Fig. 122 is a rim from‘ the small earthwork on Fort Hill, near Savannah, N. Y. There are two lines of small indentations on the flat top, and vertical inter- rupted grooves within, similar to the divided grooves without. The latter are diagonal, meeting at an angle. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 107 Fig. 123 is taken from the small figure in Morgan’s League of the Iroquois, which he considered typical of the pottery of the Genesee valley. It fairly represents some forms. Fig. 124 is taken from a small picture of one of the cave vessels of New York city, and was | described at the time as ‘of dark red clay, 18 inches in diameter at the mouth, and 2 feet high. It is contracted slightly 3 inches from the rim, and flares a little in the middle. The bottom has the same curious peak as that of the pot found in the knoll. Near the rim are nine roughly executed rows of indentations, evidently made with a sharp stick. Perpendicularly from the lowest row run roughened belts of clay about 24 inches wide.’ After the above was written Mr W. L. Calver wrote very de- cidedly in reply to a question about the pointed base. He had not been able to examine closely the vessels in question, the curators oi that department of the American museum of natural history being away, but said, ‘As far as I can see none have anything like a pointed base, and as I have known them from the first discovery, I can say quite positively that none found hereabouts ever had any other than rounded bottoms. My large pot, from near the Cheno- weth cave, has:a rounded bottom. Mr A. E. Douglass says that he knows of no New York pottery with pointed base.’ The feature claimed was so improbable that the figure here given was introduced with some hesitation, but the claim was made so confidently that.it was thought best to show by one example just what it was. The opinion of so careful an archeologist as Mr Calver, with special experience in local work, settles the question. The vessels from the metropolis are like those from other parts of New York. A number of vessels have been found in New York city, in the vicinity of Harlem, which are worthy of notice, and perhaps closer study than can be given them now. Illustrations and descriptions were given in the New York papers, at the time they were found in 1890. These prove unreliable, but one of the simplest forms is reproduced here to show one supposed feature of this pottery. The accessible figures of the others differ greatly in outline from com- mon forms. Some were reconstructed from fragments, and the 108 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM correctness of the restoration is another question. Some were found in caves, and several are of large size. The peculiar feature, if it proves such, is a protuberance at the base, so that the vessel could only have stood in mud or sand. As figured the greatest diameter is below the middle. One of these, from a cave, is des- cribed as having a mouth diameter of 5 inches, and a body diameter of 9, an unusual proportion in New York vessels. It was also said to have had a protuberance at the base, and three zig-zag lines encompassed the rim, interrupted by four vertical divisions at regular intervals. A large vessel was also figured, and was taken from a wooded knoll, near the Harlem river, and the ornaments are the same as in Iroquois pottery, but in other ways it differs from that form. It is 18 inches high and 5 inches across the top, and was thus described. ‘ Around the rim ran a pattern of lines grouped in triangles. The lines are perfectly parallel, and show that they were made with some instrument less primitive than the pointed stick. It terminates in a rough little apex that would prevent it from stand- ing upright on anything harder than mud.’ ‘Some particulars are added not quite consistent with the figure. Several others were described, one having ‘a mouth but 5 inches in diameter, with a flaring body almost a foot through, and an almost flat bottom. The rim has a double row of indentations.’ These are presumably early articles, but the restoration has been questioned. Fig. 125 is a small vessel, represented of actual size. It is 23 inches high, with a diameter of 1,4, inches. This is from what is known as the Cayadutta fort, a few miles north of Fonda, being one of the three forts belonging to the three Mohawk clans when they first settled in their New York territory. The site affords faces on pottery, but of a ruder type than usual. This feature connects it with other recent sites, but its age is quite as well shown by a long bead of rolled brass. The vessel figured has an unusual contrac- tion in the center, and the whole work is quite rude. To illustrate one form of early Iroquois pottery, fig. 126 is given, being a Canadian vessel found about nine miles northwest of Ogdensburg, N. Y. It has the angular rim, fragments of which are so frequent, and the usual expanded bow! with a rounded bot- EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 109 tom. With this may be compared Mr F. H. Cushing’s figure of an Iroquois vessel in fig. 127, from a report of the Bureau of ethnology. He supposed this form was founded on an earlier ves- sel of birch bark. If the figure is correct, the pointed base is abnor- mal rather than typical. All Iroquois vessels here represented have a broadly rounded base. Fig. 129 was found with 126, and is intro- duced for comparison. It shows the deep and projecting rim, as well as ornaments below this. ; Excepting this, fig. 128 to 137 inclusive, are from West Bloom- field, N. Y., with one exception, and belong to Mr Leo Walter Hildburgh, of New York city, who kindly presented photographs of all. Most vessels found there are of the historic period, and it has furnished many. Mr Hildburgh says that these are ‘from graves containing articles of Indian and European manufacture.’ Fig. 128 has a notched rim, and the greatest diameter is about 1 foot. Fig. 130 has a sloping rim, with widely separated points. The diameter is the same as the last. Fig. 131 is a small, plain and shallow vessel, but little over 6 inches across. Fig. 132 is from Lima, N. Y., and has a broad rim with deep basal notches. Its diaineter is 104 inches. Fig. 133 has a deep and notched rim. This and the next have a diameter of 84 inches. Fig. 135 is a typical example of the highly ornamented early form, with a broad and angular rim. It is a foot in diameter. Fig. 136 is rather rude in every way, but has a deeply notched rim. The diameter is 8 inches. Fig. 137 is one oi the rarest forms of earthen vessels, and it is of unusual size for the kind being on the same scale with all those furnished by Mr Hildburgh. It is a double pot, ornamented, but having one bowl broken. To this review of early New York pottery a few notes may be added. It will be observed that the vessels found at the Harlem river are of large size, but this is hardly a rare circumstance. They are partly restorations, and the true form is in question still. Many Iroquois vessels must have been quite as large. At the Forks of Fish creek, Annsville, Oneida county, vessels are said to have been found from 2 to 3 feet in diameter. Mr W. W. Tooker writes of one found by him in Sag Harbor, ‘ The large vessel, which holds IIo - NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM about half a bushel, I took from a grave in this village. There was another of nearly the same size, but so badly broken that it could not be restored. It was molded in a grass basket, without ornamentation except on its top edge, where there are cord marks, and it is pierced with two holes for suspension.’ This is not a com- mon feature. In Southold he found two smaller vessels in a grave, holding a quart and a pint respectively. The Rev. O. C. Auringer, of Troy, writes that he has fied no earthenware east of the Hudson, while it occurs plentifully west of that river. This must not be taken as a general rule, however, though it certainly is less frequent eastward. In New York it had its highest development among the Iroquois, although they used dishes and vessels of bark and wood, as they still do. Their near _kindred, the Hurons of Canada did the same. Each took his bark dish and wooden spoon when invited to a feast. These articles re- mained long after other changes came. A Huron Christian, named Chihwatenhwa, told his friends in 1639, that they should not reject Christianity because it was brought by the French, ‘ I ask you, when at the beginning you saw their axes and kettles, after having recog- nized that they were incomparably better than our axes of stone, and our vessels of wood and of earth, have you rejected their axes and kettles, because this was a new thing in your land, and it was the custom of France to use these, and not your own?’ Something might be said on the aboriginal names of vessels, of whatever material, and it would prove a suggestive theme. They varied even among the Iroquois, and that ina marked degree. The Oneidas and Mohawks, the most recent comers, differed in their usage from the three western nations, as might have been expected, and yet were so related as to sometimes use their names of kettles. Commonly they did not. In other ways the reciprocal influence of New York and Canada forms a curious study, commerce, migration, peace and war, all contributing their part. The remaining figures of vessels are from those in the state col- lection, which includes some of the most remarkable specimens now to be found. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES LET Fig. 241 shows a fine vessel adorned with a human figure in bold relief, and not as much conventionalized as in most examples. The head reaches the rim, and the feet are less than half way above the rounded base. The angular rim is adorned, much as usual, with grooves and indentations, and is altogether unique. It is another of the fine articles obtained for the state collection from West Bloomfield, and is 64 inches high, with a diameter of 5% inches. Another illustration of this is given in Fig. 245. Fig. 242 is a simpler vessel from the same place, and there are others less adorned, some of which have a slight ornamentation at the rim, while others are perfectly piain. This has diagonal grooves below the rim, and a row of large indentations beneath these. It is much reduced in the figure, having a depth of nearly 5 inches and a top diameter of 42 inches. Fig. 243 is also from West Bloomfield, and is 44 inches deep, with a diameter of 3f inches. The ornaments of indentations and diagonal grooves are carried farther down the sides than in the last. Pig. 244, from the same place, is a good example of an Iroquois vessel adorned with a conventionalized human figure. The body and legs have the customary cross marks, while the arms are formed ‘by elliptic indentations. Such vessels are now very rare. This is also reduced, the dimensions being a depth of 64 inches, and a diameter of 64 inches. Vessels of this kind were much in use among the Iroquois about the year 1600, and for a few years later. As far as reported they appear only among the Mohawks, Onon- dagas and Senecas, but there is no known reason why the Oneidas may not have used similar decorations, but none have yet been found in their territory. , Fig. 245 is a photographic view of a Seneca vessel already figured in a different position, it having a less diameter one way than the other. The human figure does not seem to have been molded sep- arately, nor does it have the cross bars so common among the Mohawks and Onondagas. A perfect vessel with that style of orna- ment is something much desired. | The number of entire or nearly whole vessels of clay has proved unexpectedly large, but it is to be regretted that so many have been Ii2 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM carelessly destroyed. It is hoped that a few early Mohawk and Onondaga sites may yield much of high value in this way, should the state provide means for painstaking research. It is matter of con- gratulation that so much has been already secured, but this initial work only shows how important is the field, and how much may be done. CLAY TOBACCO PIPES In an article on the ‘ Antiquity of the tobacco pipe in Europe,’ by Edwin A. Barber, printed in the American antiquarian in 1879, he says, ‘It has for some time been a matter of dispute among antiquaries whether the custom of tobacco smoking originated in the eastern or the western continent; but of late years America has been generally accepted as the birthplace of the art.’ The great quantities of small clay pipes recently found in Great Britain, known in England as fairy pipes, in Scotland as Celtic or elfin pipes, and in Ireland as Danes’ pipes, he said had revived the question. Some had been found close to Roman remains, and thus it had been claimed that they were Roman relics of the second century. Other recent articles found with them disproved this theory. Sir Daniel Wilson, of Toronto, fairly discussed this question in his Prehistoric man, and arrived at this conclusion. In Fairholt’s Tobacco; its his- tory and associations, the subject is also treated, and he sums up by saying, ‘ We may be certain no authenticated discovery of Celtic or Roman antiquities, where the ground has been entirely undisturbed, includes tobacco pipes.’ Mr Barber thought the fairy pipes of Ireland the oldest form known in Great Britain. There seems little doubt, however, that smoking was known in Europe before Raleigh’s time, though perhaps little more than this, for King James, in 1603, said ‘ It is not so long since the first entry of this abuse amongst us here, as this present age can very well remember both the first author and forms of its introduction.’ Capt. John Smith, who loved the weed, gives Ralph Lane credit for its introduction into England. ‘ More by token that Lane brought with him that blessed herb tobacco, and was the first man that brought it to England; and yet have I heard men say, some that it was Drake, others that it was Raleigh. Nor are they altogether wrong, for if Raleigh had not sent Lane out, and Drake had not EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES I1I3 brought Lane home, he could not at that time have showed us Eng- lishmen the virtues of that precious herb.’ English pipes of the 17th and 18th centuries, were used in trade or as presents to the Indians, and in speaking of New York examples there will be occa- sion to quote Mr Barber again. The oldest pipes found in New York are of stone, the Iroquois clay pipes succeeding these early examples, and being followed by those of red pipe stone and some of the fine grained slates. In 1643 Roger Williams said, ‘Sometimes they make such great pipes, both of wood and stone, that they are two feet long, with men and beasts carved, so big or massive, that a man may be hurt mortally by one of them, but these commonly came from the Mauguawogs, or the men-eaters, three or four hundred miles from us.’ His ac- count sounds like pipes of stone, but he probably: never saw a Mohawk Indian or his pipe. Capt. John Smith described the Susquehanna Indians, who were kindred to the Iroquois, and we get the same impression of stone pipes, though he does not call them such. He tells of “ his tobacco pipe, three quarters of a yard long, prettily carved with a bird or beare, a deare, or some such device at the great end, sufficient to beate out the brains of aman.’ In both these cases we would sup- pose a large stone bowl intended, with a wooden pipe stem inserted, as in the modern pipe of peace. Wood also said that the Nar- ragansetts made large stone pipes, which they sold to other nations. It will suffice to say that such pipes were not made in New York at the time of the Dutch colonization, nor were they then apparently used there, except very rarely. The usages connected with tobacco are of great interest. It was an acceptable offering to spirits of every kind, and a little bag of it is attached to a large wooden mask lying before the writer, to keep the spirit of the mask in a peaceful mood. It allayed storms, and was grateful to the thunders. It was always used at the burning of the white dog, and was indispensable at councils of peace or war. In digging ginseng a little of it was scattered over the first plant found, which was then left unharmed. How largely it entered into Indian life may be seen in old chronicles, or even on a reservation now. IIi4 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM This native northern tobacco, uicotiana rustica, is used in all sacred functions, and grows spontaneously when once introduced. It has a yellow flower, and is smaller than our commercial kinds. In the prosperous days of the Tionontatie, or Tobacco nation of Canada, it was a source of revenue to that ancient people. lLoskiel said, ‘The species in common use with the Delawares and Iroquois is so strong that they never smoke it alone, but smoke it with the dried leaves of the sumac or other plants.’ The Onondagas still cultivate this species sparingly, calling it oyenkwa honwe, real tobacco. On his pipe the Indian exercised his highest taste and skill, nor did he wish to lose his own enjoyment of its beauty. Early clay pipes had the finest features within the smoker’s sight, the face on the bowl being usually turned toward him. Later examples often reversed this feature, both in clay and stone. Quite commonly it will be found that the figure on the bowl was molded separately, and then attached. Detached heads occur, broken off, and often beautifully wrought. Symmetrical designs appear, as when two or more heads of any kind are grouped in various ways. Very often the form is both simple and elegant, as in the trumpet pipes with their graceful curves. After a time, however, the cheap and con- venient pipe of the white man, or the elegant red stone pipe of the west, displaced the work of the native forest artist. A very large proportion of the aboriginal clay pipes of New York were made by the Iroquois, and many are very neatly finished, the work on them being much better than that on earthen vessels. Some are so smooth as to suggest a dull glaze. This appearance, however, comes from the careful finish of the surface. They vary much in color, as the vessels do. Some Seneca pipes have almost the appearance of black marble. Those found farther east are much lighter in hue. The ornamental work varies still more, and is often quite artistic. Human heads, with those of quadrupeds and birds often embellish the bowls, and more rarely the stems. Lines and dots are sometimes tastefully arranged. The upturned and open jaws of some animal occasionally form the bowl, while some peculiarities hint at a knowledge of the whites in a few from prehistoric sites. The Algonquins also made pipes of clay. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES I15 As a rule stone pipes were earlier than those of clay, but not invariably. A primitive feature appears in most cases; that of hav- ing any face toward the smoker. One curious example has the face turned to one side. Apparently at a later day there was some- times a double symmetrical representation on the back of the bowl, but this is not a common feature. In a very few cases grotesque human faces are interwoven all over the bowl and stem. The so- called trumpet pipes are frequent, but many others have a similar curve between the bowl and stem. Straight pipes are rare, and those with flanges along the stem are local. _ Precisely when European pipes began to be used by the New York Indians, we may not be able to decide. Large white stems, carved as ornaments appear on the Onondaga site of 1654, but this was occupied for some years longer. No Dutch pipes have been found, known as such, and it is not likely that English pipes would have been introduced inland, till the English took and retained possession of the province of New York. On some sites of the last quarter of the 17th century, such pipes have been found, and some examples of these will be given. In 1684 duties were laid on tobacco pipes and boxes intended for the Indian trade, amid a host ci other things, so that they must then have had an extensive use here and elsewhere. As public gifts to the Indians they first appear in a council held in 1692, but some may have been given before. The older ones have the bowl rather small and barrel shaped, and the maker’s initials may appear on the projecting heel below the bowl. A large number of pipes have been found of these and some- what differing forms, and some are of much interest to the antiquary. More will be said, as we consider each in turn. In later councils wampum pipes appear as presents, but without any suggestion of their form or nature. They are mentioned in reports for 1702. Fig. 138 represents one of these English pipes, found on the site of the smaller Onondaga village mentioned by Greenhalgh in 1677. It has no lettering, and is less swollen than most pipes of that period. The heel at the base of the bowl may have been worn off, and with this the letters would disappear, as they were stamped 116 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM within an ellipse below. Another from the same site has the letters E. B., and this kind is somewhat frequent on Mohawk sites, but those with these initials vary much in form. Mr S. L. Frey found similar pipes with the letters R. T., on such sites, and others were found in an Indian grave in Pennsylvania. Prof. E. A. Barber thought these “were probably made by Richard Tyler, a celebrated pipe maker in the vicinity of Bath, during the early or middle part of the 17th century.’ The Dutch, however, were jealous of their monopoly of tobacco pipes, and there is no likelihood that English pipes found their way to New York Indians till toward the close of that century, after the colony changed owners. Fig. 139 is another white clay pipe from the Onondaga village of 1677, having the heel and cartouche inclosing a monogram formed by an I above an M. It is singular in having a ribbed elevation about an inch from the bowl and around the stem. To these pipes may be added another found on Mohawk sites, and also on Man- hattan island and in the Acadian cellars of Nova Scotia. This lacks the earlier heel, and has the name R. Tippet in raised letters and within a raised circle, on the side of the bowl. The maker is unknown, but the pipes probably belong to the early part of the 18th century, judging from their general character. Mr Richmond has a fine and perfect one from an Indian grave at Canajoharie. Fig. 140 is a very fine and perfect pipe from a grave in Scipio, Cayuga county. It seems a gull’s head, with the beak upturned, the bowl being at the base of this towards the mouth of the smoker. There are grooves and dots on the back of the bowl. It is 64 inches long, and probably of the early part of the 17th century. All the pipes on this plate are two thirds of the actual length and breadth. Fig. 141 is a plain pipe, but slightly curved, and much like those of Cayuga. It was found near Rome, and is 3 inches long. There are many of these plain pipes, having the bowl and stem at various angles. Fig. 142 has acylindric bowl and no stem. The greatest diameter is at the stem-hole. This form is unusual in clay, though better specimens have been found at Fort Hill, Auburn. This is the only pipe which has been found at Rice’s woods, north of Palatine Bridge. It is somewhat rude, and is 14 inches broad. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 1A 7 Fig. 143 is quite slender, and has a grotesque face and high head dress, the latter a frequent feature in Cayuga pipes. Behind the face are grooves and dots. It is 54 inches long, and is said to have been found at Scipioville, a recent site of considerable extent. _*F ig. 144 is a fine and perfect pipe of black clay, in the state collec- tion, and is a good example of this characteristic pipe. An open- mouthed bear’s head forms the bowl, and a spiral groove encircles the bowl and stem from end to end. Although this form of pipe is not rare, perfect examples are, and this is accordingly prized. This is a Seneca pipe from West Bloomfield, where many fine pipes and vessels have been found. In fact the populous Seneca country has proved one of the most productive fields for antiquaries, although a large proportion of the relics are recent. Fig. 145 is a frequent form of Iroquois pipe, most abundant in the t7th century, and two of this type were found with the fine pipe which follows. It seems to have been most in use about the middle -of that century, and a pot of French copper coins was among the many modern articles found in the same grave. There were 44 of these coins, dated from 1642 to 1656, and many French articles occur in this and adjoining graves in Cayuga county. It has cords around the top, and is 64 inches long. Pig. 146 was found in a grave at Brewerton, which also contained a gun and European articles. There were two of the long pipes with this, having corded bowls; and also a unique pipe having a panther’s head turned to one side. The pipe here figured has lost a part of the eagle’s beak, but is otherwise perfect. Both head and tail project, and both are adorned with dots and grooves. It is very smooth, and almost black, and is one of the largest and finest clay pipes yet found in Onondaga county, being 8? inches long. The figures on the succeeding plate are reduced in the same pro- portion as the last. Fig. 147 is a plain and angular pipe, from Far- ley’s Point, on the east side of Cayuga lake. It is 54 inches long, and has the flange on each side of the stem, so often seen in Cayuga pipes. _ Fig. 148 is a slender Cayuga pipe, with a very long stem and low bowl, the latter ornamented with dots and moldings. It is 7 inches 118 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM long, and comes from Scipioville. Although of what is called the trumpet form, it is almost unique in character. Fig. 149 is a fine turtle pipe from Schoharie county, and was found under a stump. The bowl is raised upon the back, and the feet and projecting head are well worked out. It is a fine example of this form of pipe, 74 inches long. Fig. 150 is a pipe bowl from Jefferson county, strongly resembling two from Madison county in its niche-like character, as well as one from the Minden site near Fort Plain. There is a face and a rude figure in a recess, surrounded by a double arch. These pipes ap- parently belong to the end of the 16th century, but suggest to some a knowledge of Europeans. They are rather rare. One comes from Onondaga. : Fig. 151 is a fine and curious pipe found in a grave at Boughton hill, where the Seneca capital of 1687 stood. There is an upturned human face above, and arms below the rim of the bowl. Below the latter are grooves, and along the stem are grooves and elliptic indentations in the fashion of that century. Another fine pipe was found in the same grave. One has been described from the Huron territory in Canada much like this, and the Senecas had a town almost entirely Huron, after the overthrow of that people. The Fiuron and Canadian pipes of this form may have come from the same hand. The length is 7% inches. Pig. 152 isa large and fine bowl in the form of a human head. It is very well made, and resembles some of the early pipes from Jefferson county. It is 2} inches wide, and was found in Lenox, Madison county, not far from the site of 1615, but is probably of earlier date. From the latter, at Nichols’ pond, Fenner, come some ~ of the high and corded bowls of that century, so frequent else- where. Fig. 153 is a large and heavy pipe, with the abrupt angles neatly rounded. It has a flaring bowl, and is perfectly plain excepting four shallow horizontal grooves midway on the front of the bowl, and two large indentations on the back. This massive pipe is per- fect, and is 74 inches in extent. It was found in Pompey, and thus seems of the 17th century. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES IIg The next plate is reduced in the same proportion. Fig. 154 has a wolf’s head projecting from the bowl, with grooves around the latter. It is a recent but fine Cayuga pipe, and was found in a grave with European articles. These projecting heads were often broken off, and sometimes had a secondary use as ornaments. Usually they were molded separately, and attached before baking. _ The form was common in the 17th century and a little earlier. This fine pipe is 62 inches long. Fig. 155 shows a fine trumpet pipe from the Seneca river, 33 inches long. It comes from a fishing hamlet, where there were also camps of uncertain age. A molding at the base of the bowl is an unusual feature in this form of pipe. Fig. 156 is a plain and angular pipe, with a molding around the rim. It is 4 inches long, and is a Cayuga pipe from Union Springs. The type is frequent there. Fig. 157 shows a pipe bowl of a pattern found in a number of places. It has an expanded base, divided by vertical ridges and erooves. These ridges are notched across. There are four human faces between these and on opposite parts of the bowl. In some examples a plain surface takes the place of the face. Above these ribs and faces the bowl contracts and then expands toward the rim. This part has horizontal grooves. This bowl comes from Rodman, Jefferson county, and is 1% inches across the rim. It seems to have been in use late in the 16th century, from the connection of sites. Fig. 158 is from a camp site a mile east of Skaneateles lake, and is 34 inches in extent. A human face turns toward the smoker, and much resembles one found in a stockade near Baldwinsville. There are three vertical grooves below the chin. The curved stem is nearly rectangular, but the angles are neatly rounded. The ma- terial is quite gritty, and the rim is a little damaged. Fig. 159 is a thick and coarse bowl, much like a flower pot in form, but it has a slight inward curve at the top. The rim is made with an outward slope all around, and below this are large elliptic indentations. It comes from Fenner, Madison county, and is 1} inches wide by 24 deep. But for the location of this at or near Nichols’ pond, it would not be thought an Iroquois pipe, and may not have been. 120 vn’ NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Fig. 160 is a neat and peculiar little pipe bowl from Seneca county, I inch wide. It is very angular at the base, and midway the upper half of the bowl projects, and is adorned with vertical and horizontal grooves. The base gradually expands below this abrupt projection, and is decorated with diagonal grooves and dots. Fig. 161 is a very well made pipe, representing the human knee and foot slightly conventionalized. The stem is a little broken, but it is yet 4 inches long. The sole of the foot forms the rim of the bowl, and the ankle and toes plainly appear. It is from the Otstungo or Minden site, where many fine pipes have been found. Fig. 162 is a serpent pipe from West Bloomfield. The reptile twines around the pipe from the mouthpiece to the top of the bowl, where the head appears. This gives the whole pipe a spiral appear- ance, found in some other Seneca pipes where the serpent is not so distinctly seen. This creature was a favorite decoration on many fragmentary pipes. This one is 4% inches long. Fig. 163 is a remarkable pipe from Boughton hill, suggesting a Huron maker, and is 6$ inches long. It was taken from a grave with another already described. The human head, with its little cap, is hollow, a remarkable feature, but a hog’s head, detached from a pipe and found near Canandaigua lake, resembles it in this respect., This hollow head rises above the bowl, and has seven per- forations. Arms and legs appear on the bowl, and there are grooves across the back of the figure. The fashionable lines and indenta- tions follow the stem. The face is less upturned than in a previous example. In succeeding plates the figures are of actual size. Fig. 164 is one of the curious many faced pipes found on one or two Onondaga sites only. This is reported from Indian Fort, in Pompey, but may be a mistake for the stockade a few miles south, where they have otherwise only been found. The bowl alone re- mains of this pipe, which is the largest known of this form, being 24 inches wide. Six grotesque faces form the rim, and below these are two rows of five faces each, which are divided by spiral lines. Although much larger the general appearance is much less artistic than that of one yet to be represented. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES I21 Fig. 165 is another of these, more angular than some in its curves. This is from a photograph, and there seem to be six faces around the top. A fragment of a stem shows that these faces follow the curved and diminishing stem nearly to the mouthpiece, which is neatly rounded and has a molding at the end. This is from the Onondaga site west of Cazenovia, where several have been found. The stockade was occupied about 1600, and this unique type died with the maker. Fig. 166 is part of a pipe bowl which is encircled by a serpent, the head appearing below. The form is found in many places, but this comes from a circular stockade near Baldwinsville. There are grooves between the scaly folds. Fig. 167 is an owl’s head pipe from Nichols’ pond, and is 21% inches wide. These are often found in a fragmentary condition, and are rarely as perfect as this. It was a favorite design among the Petun nation of Canada, and sometimes is combined with other things in New York. | Fig. 168 is a pipe bowl from Ontario ene which is of simple design. There are six moldings above, and the top is nearly rec- tangular. Near the base is a large molding around the bowl. The greatest diameter is 2 inches. Fig. 169 is a handsome fragment of the rim of a pipe Homa much like a high and pointed cap or miter. This is ornamented with horizontal and diagonal grooves, the latter converging, and most of them notched. The color is a bright red, and it must have been a beautiful article when perfect. It was found on a stockade site a little west of Baldwinsville. _ Fig. 170 is a coarsely made pipe, with a barrel shaped bowl, the horizontal lines above and below suggesting hoops, and the ver- tical lines between, staves. It is 4 inches long, and was obtained near Binghamton. : Fig. 171 is a rare form dating from the middle of the 17th cen- tury. It was found in a grave at Brewerton, with an eagle pipe and two others, along with European articles. It has the lines of dots frequent in that day, and its notable feature is that the single, spirited panther’s head, forming the bowl is at right angles with I22 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM _ the stem. In earlier pipes the face was toward the smoker; a later fashion was to place it on the front of the bowl. There are four grooves under the rear of the head, and the length is 54 inches. Fig. 172 represents a fine pipe from an early Iroquois site in Pom- pey. Two human faces appear side by side, at slightly different angles with the bowl. This arrangement is somewhat rare, and although the pipe is otherwise simple it may be called unique. Fig. 173 shows a fine bear’s head pipe from Pompey, of the early part of the 17th century. The head and most of the body and bowl project greatly toward the rear. There are undulating and nearly vertical grooves on the sides of the body, and the usual grooves and elliptic indentations along the stem. There is the usual con- -ventional projection of the tail, and the surface is polished. The length is 5% inches. There are many fine pipes of this type,. but none, perhaps, uniting so many fine features as this. Fig. 174 is one of a class where the open mouth of some animal forms the bowl. This is from Cayuga county, and is 44 inches long. The bear’s head is upturned, and the jaws are distended. Snake heads were often represented on similar bowls. Fig. 175 is another of the many faced pipes found on the Onon- daga site of 1600, and is the most graceful in its curves of any yet found, though smaller than some, the greatest diameter being less than 2 inches. One face has been broken off at the top, where there should have been five, but 13 remain on the fragment. The faces are grotesque and curiously intertwined, and the surface is as glossy as in some other pipes of that period. Fig. 176 shows a fine trumpet pipe, widely expanded at the dul The rim has vertical indentations, and there are bands and dots below this on the bowl. It comes from Venice, Cayuga county, and is 4 inches long. - From the location it would seem compar- atively recent. Fig. 177 has the general trumpet form, but is very thick as well as short. The low bowl is widely expanded, and there are moldings below the rim. The length is 31 inches, and it comes from Ken- daia, near the east shore of Seneca lake, where a Seneca village was destroyed in 1779. ~ EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 123 Fig. 178 is a miniature clay pipe from Jefferson county, of the trumpet form, 14 inches long. ‘These little pipes are sometimes met with, both in clay and stone. Many of the Indian pipes, however, held so little tobacco that it was needless to make toy pipes for the boys. . Fig. 179 is a long straight pipe with an expanding bowl, and is much like an inverted long-necked bottle in outline. The stem is almost triangular. The length is 44 inches, and the greatest diameter 134 inches. It is from Union Springs on Cayuga lake. Fig. 180 shows an angular pipe of unusual form, from Rutland, Jefferson county. The top is slightly flaring, and there is an expan- sion in the center of the bowl, which is ornamented with lines and circles of dots. The projecting base takes the form of the heel in early European pipes, though very much wider. There are also three holes in the stem. The length is 44 inches. This does not come from a fort, but from an open site. c _ Fig. 181 is a remarkably fine specimen of a rare type, involving a symmetrical arrangement. The fine pigeon’s head on one side of the back of the bowl is balanced by another on the opposite side, and a conventionalized human face appears on the rear between the bills of the birds. This face is an ellipse, with three vertical elliptic in- dentations. At the top and base of the bowl are broad bands, with elliptic indentations. Between these are 10 horizontal grooves, and there are three rows of long indentations on the flat top of the stem. The bowl is 22 inches wide, and the pipe 54 inches. This came from Indian Fort, Pompey. Fig. 182 shows another of the open-mouthed pipes, apparently of a fish. The head is upturned as usual, the mouth forming the Bowl. Below the bowl are circular grooves and lines of ellipses. It came from East Aurora, Erie county. Fig. 183 is a pretty pipe from Union Springs, 34 inches long. The top is hexagonal in outline, contracting in a straight slope to the | moldings beneath, and ornamented with diagonal lines. Several moldings form the center of the bowl, which again suddenly expands before contracting into the stem, which is quite slender. I24 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Fig. 184 is a curved pipe with a bowl terminating in a rim which is nearly rectangular, but with slightly convex edges. The top is 1g inches across, and the full length is 52 inches. There are grooves on the edge of the flaring rim. This was found in the town of Clay, not far from the Oneida river. 3 Fig. 185 shows a characteristic pipe from Jefferson county, with a human face on the rear of the bowl. It is much compressed, making the face somewhat thin. The eyes are raised ellipses, and there are small elliptic indentations around the rim. The long diameter of the bowl is 2 inches, and the short 14 inches. Clay pipes are common and variable in that county, and this is a moder- ately early form. Fig. 186 is a fine pipe from the Otstungo or Minden site, and more than half of the stem has been restored. In this form it is 6} inches long. There are notched lines on the stem, and grooved and beaded lines on the front of the bowl. In a double niche, on the back of the bowl, is a child’s bust with uplifted hands. An ex- perienced archeologist, on seeing this, at once exclaimed that it was the niche of a saint, which it certainly suggests. Fig. 187 is part of the bowl of a handsome red pipe, from a stock- ade near Baldwinsville. The upper part is rectangular, contracting toward the base, and ornamented with diagonal lines and dots. Below this it.is circular, with horizontal moldings. The arrange- ment is very tasteful. Fig. 188 is a handsome Mohawk pipe from the early fort on Garoga creek, in Ephratah, Fulton county. The curving stem is mostly lacking. The bowl is 13 inches wide. Above the bold and well-formed face is a head dress of netting. Fig. 189 shows a pipe of unusual form from Montgomery county. The rim is slightly notched, and the bowl gradually expands below this for half an inch, as gradually contracting again below the angle thus formed. On this angle is a perforation, and there are five horizontal grooves on the front of the bowl. This is from the Otstungo site, and is highly polished. Fig. 190 has the bowl square on top, and expanded below the angular contraction, The stem joins the bowl at an abrupt angle, EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 125 and the bowl is ornamented with grooves. This is 3} inches long, and comes from Cazenovia. | | Fig. 191 is a pretty pipe of the trumpet form, but with a very low bowl, ornamented with circular moldings and dots. It is 4 inches _ long, and was found a few miles west of Canajoharie. Fig. 192 shows part of a curious pipe bowl found at Brewerton. It is cylindrical and tapering toward each end, and is ornamented with lines and dots. There is a strong resemblance in this to a stone pipe found in Canada. Fig. 193 represents a curious pipe bowl found in East Syracuse. The upper part of the front reached above the proper rim of the bowl, and this is partially lost. The front of the bowl represented a human face surmounted by an owl’s head. Fig. 194 is a trumpet bowl, raised on either side of the rim, but this is hardly a rare feature. It is ornamented with lines and dots, both horizontal and nearly vertical, and is 12 inches wide the widest way. It was found on the Seneca river. | Fig. 195 is of similar form, having the two raised angles. It has circular moldings below the wide band which forms the rim, and is 1} inches wide. There are two indentations below the rim. This is from a stockade near Baldwinsville, probably of the 16th century. Fig. 196 is a heavy angular bowl, with diagonal lines and en- circling rows of dots. It is 12 inches wide, and was found on the Seneca river. Fig. 197 shows a small thick pipe, with expanded bowl, orna- mented with diagonal lines and dots. It is 23 inches long, and comes from Sherman’s hollow, Yates county. | Fig. 198 shows a small bowl with expanded base, having vertical ribs, but no faces. Above these an ornamented molding encircles the bowl, and the expanded rim is neatly decorated. The diameter is 14 inches, and it comes from Cayuga county. Fig. 199 is an angular pipe from Farley’s point, Cayuga lake, which is 34 inches long. The bowl is encompassed with irregular grooves and dots. _ Fig. 200 is another angular pipe, 44 inches long, and found in Scipioville. The stem expands but slightly till half way between 126 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM the angle and the top of the bowl, where there is a sudden enlarge- ment. This is adorned with vertical and diagonal lines. Fig. 201 has a swollen base to the bowl, ornamented with diagonal and vertical lines. It is 3$ inches long, and was found 2 feet under- ground in Owego, in 1897. Fig. 202 is a white clay pipe from Munnsville, where the Oneidas lived. It has no heel, but in the slight cartouche beneath the bowl are the letters E. B. The form is very different from the earlier pipes bearing these initials, which have barrellike bowls and prom- inent heels. At the same time it differs much from recent pipes. Barrels of pipes were given to the Indians by the English. — Fig. 203 shows a pipe from Hoffman’s Ferry, of quite unusual character. It is reduced in the drawing to three-fourths size, the actual extent being now 2} inches, but the stem has been broken. It was found on the flats of the Mohawk river, and Mr P. M. Van Epps, the owner, says, ‘ The dot and line ornamentation has been impressed before baking, but the work representing the mouth, nose and eyes, has been cut in the material after burning. Both sides have the face, which is cut much alike, except that the reverse has two nasal orifices.’ It is quite narrow for the length, and seems an early form. Fig. 204 has an upturned wolf’s head on the margin of the bowl. The mouth is not open, and there are other examples of the gen- eral form. There are grooves around the bowl, and grooves and elliptic indentations on the stem. This is an Oneida pipe fromm Munnsville. Fig. 205 is a frequent form of Cayuga pipe, easily imitated from its simplicity of design. Fig. 206 is a human faced pipe bowl from Indian Fort, Pompey, having a head dress of dots and lines. The curved stem has been broken. Indian Fort is considered a recent site, but this pipe is of an early Iroquois type, like most relics there now. Fig. 207 is perfectly plain, and slightly curved, suggesting that stone tubes may well have been used for pipes. It is 4.inches long, and comes from Farley’s point, Cayuga lake. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 127 Fig. 208 is a pipe bowl nearly an-inch wide, found on the site of a circular stockade near Baldwinsville. The face, with its open mouth, differs little from mariy others, but there is a neat head dress behind this, made up of dots and lines, suggesting one in actual use. Fig. 209 is taken from a drawing of a fine pipe found on Fort Hill, Le Roy. It is 4 inches long, and has two raised human heads on the back of the bowl, facing the smoker. The back below these has a plain surface with oblong indentations. This flattened sur- face is continued on the top of the stem, which is angular through- out. The front of the bowl, with its dots and grooves, is much like some other Seneca pipes. This pipe has now disappeared. From the drawing furnished by Mr Moseley it would seem that one of the heads is that of a white man, not an improbable thing at the time the pipe was made. Unfortunately this can not be determined now, and the drawing is given as made some years since. A pipe bowl from a Baldwinsville stockade has three narrow and horizontal ellipses within a double triangle, which has the point - above. The elliptic grooves represent the eyes and mouth. A Jefferson county pipe has a beaver on the front and beneath the bowl. ‘The top is contracted, and the marks of molding tools plainly appear. A large and thick angular bowl, with concentric interrupted grooves inclosing a 16 rayed star or flower, comes from _ Sacket Harbor, from whence comes also a-swimming goose on the upper part of a large bowl. The bird’s head is broken off. A thick and angular pipe, much like those from Cayuga, also comes from Rutland, in that county. Another from the same place has a slender stem, and an expanding straight-sided bowl with diagonal grooves and dots. It is 4g inches long, and the’ bowl is compar- atively low. A thick trumpet pipe, 52 inches long, comes from Dexter, and a similar smaller one from Le Ray. A pipe with a very broad and flat stem, but somewhat convex above and below, is 3 inches long, and was found at Alexandria Bay. A bird pipe from the Thousand Islands, is 3 inches wide, and has grooves on the wings and tail. Some others from this county will be mentioned later. 128 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM A pipe from Binghamton has a grotesque face, with a long pro- jecting nose. A perfect pipe has a woli’s head, with vertical grooves behind. A line of elliptic indentations runs from the head far down the stem. It is 62 inches long, and comes from Cazenovia. A finely polished and perfect pipe, 64 inches long, is from Phoenix, on the Oswego river. It has the corded ornament at the top of the bowl, interrupted by two broader grooves. The stem is more gradually curved than in most of this type. A large pipe of red clay, from Schoharie county, has double oie ings at the base of the bowl. The latter expands like open jaws. A trumpet pipe, from Stone Arabia, has grooves and dots, and a rim 24 inches wide. A large pipe from the Otstungo site is 6% inches long, and curved. A now headless goose shows its foot. The pipes there have usually jong stems. A fine trumpet pipe from this place is 6£ inches long, and has moldings. Another angular pipe from _ this fort, with an expanding bowl, has a raised wolf’s head, turned to the front, which is unusual in so early an example. A cylindric bowl, with vertical and horizontal dots and lines, is 14 inches wide, and comes from Canajoharie. Another broadly expanded trumpet pipe, with moldings and grooves, is 6 inches long, and comes from Stone Arabia. Quite an odd find in clay pipes is one from Frey’s Bush, which is a brown earthenware imitation of European pipes. Oneida pipes are not rare, and fine examples of them are found in many collections, where they have become widely dispersed. They occur mostly in the vicinity of Oneida creek, and some have been described from Nichols’ pond. A bowl, 14 inches wide, and having horizontal and diagonal lines and dots, is from Munnsville. A large bowl, having a large bear’s head, with grooves and dots behind the head, is from Madison county, and is 24 inches wide. Another bowl, with an animal head, and grooves and ellipses on the bowl and stem, is from Munnsville, and a niched pipe comes from near the same place. Among the odd serpent pipes is the fragment of a large bowl from Baldwinsville. The scaly folds are well worked, but are not parallel, and between them, in one place, is a large protuberance, - much like an egg. Another curious bowl from the same place has EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 129 deep spiral grooves and prominent decorated ridges, suggestive of a serpent but not directly an imitation. | A plain trumpet pipe from South Onondaga is 5 inches long. An upturned bear’s head, with open jaws forms the bowl of a pipe from Oneida river. There are grooves around the stem and lower part of the bowl, and vertical grooves below the jaws. Turtle pipes are usually flat, but one from the Seneca river has the head raised above the edge of the bowl, on the sides of which are horizontal and diagonal grooves. The corded bowls are many in number, and distributed through the entire Iroquois territory, most of them being of the 17th century, and varying in unimportant details. In this, as in other instances, will be seen one great advantage of studying the Iroquois district as such, that of placing so many articles in their proper chrono- logic position, affording a criterion for work elsewhere. Thus a coarse and heavy clay pipe found ina grave at East Syracuse, to the fertile imagination of the reporter was of vast antiquity, and the grave a substantial structure lined with stone. The stones van- ished, on investigation, and an Iroquois pipe appeared of another corded form, having a low instead of a high bowl. These corded pipes are often angular, but the bowl and stem sometimes form a fine curve, and sometimes they are true trumpet pipes. An example of a type of pipes made in the 16th century comes from the Thousand Islands. It is quite plain, the bowl curving abruptly from the stem, and expanding but little except at the rim. This form is often ornamented with some incised figure, and the bowl is quite high. : A very pretty pipe bowl was found two miles south of Onondaga Hill. The lower half of the bowl is much expanded, and has the usual vertical divisions of this form of pipe, but they are less prom- inent than usual, and there are no faces between. On the cylin- dric portion between this base and the four moldings around the rim are grooves and lines of dots. The simple and almost straight pipes, often with very broad stems are found in many places. A good example comes from Oswego Falls. It is but slightly curved, and is quite thick. The dimensions 130 Da NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM are 34 inches long by 14 wide, and it is broken on one side of the rim. Viewed from the front the sides are nearly parallel. It was little used by the eastern Iroquois. | A fragmentary bowl comes from a stockade site on the Seneca river, having several rare features. There has been a high crest of some kind, above the well-wrought human face, the features of the : latter being quite prominent. The eyes have elevated and elliptic rims, and the mouth a similar rim, but more angular. The face seems to have been made separately, standing’ well out from the bowl. The site is prehistoric Iroquois. _- The pipes with flanges on the sides of the stem, are not restricted to the Cayuga district, a fine and ornamented one having been found near the east shore of Cross lake. It is of a simple character, hay- ing only grooves and lines of dots below the rim. Among the niched pipes inclosing human busts or faces, may be mentioned one belonging to Mr A. E. Douglass, of New York, and found in Madison county. The double arches are plain, and the face, which is of a marked character, runs up into a high point, suggesting a fool’s cap. A fine and large turtle pipe is from an Onondaga village, occu- pied in 1677. The upper shell forms the front of the bowl, which opens about half way down the lower shell, the animal being placed vertically. The claws and tail are well elaborated, but are under the edge ‘of the shell. The whole surface is ornamented with groups of lines. A curious pipe is from Jefferson county, and represents a fresh- water crayfish, whose tail extends beneath the stem. One of the claws is broken, and the other entirely gone. There are rows of dots along the back. The length is 34 inches. Two recent Onondaga pipes are worthy of note, both from a village occupied in 1677. A long-bodied animal encircles, the top of the bowl of one, having the head and tail of a bear. Beneath the body are four broad grooves and a chain around the bowl. The head is parallel with the side of the bowl. The other has a well- executed figure of a sitting man, whose feet are on the stem, and whose hands are clasped across the knees. Grooves appear on the EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 131 man’s prominent back, giving it the appearance of a very plump skeleton, but these are but customary ornaments. [If it once had a head, as is probable, the fracture has been neatly smoothed and hardly appears. Many fine examples of pipes, perfect and fragmentary, may be seen in the state collection, which is now rich in articles of this kind, through the energetic efforts of Mr A. G..Richmond, to whose knowledge of aboriginal art we owe so much. In the fine local collection of Mr Twining, made in Jefferson county, in those of Messrs Peck, Crone and Moseley, of Ontario and Genesee counties, will be found specimens which will elicit admiration. A few of these will be shown from photographs, partly because they have features so remarkable, in some cases, that no suspicion of artistic fancy should rest on their reproduction. In all the illustrations in these bulletins accuracy has been aimed at, bit a photograph will remove any lingering doubt, should such exist in the minds of any. ‘These plates are reduced. Fig. 210 is of a pipe from Genesee county, where a combination is occasionally met with in a somewhat different way. A man’s head faces the smoker, and above this, on the other side of the bowl, is an uplifted animal’s head. There are the usual grooves, and an arm or leg appears below the animal’s head. The pipe is black, and quite angular, and is 5% inches long. | Fig. 211 is one of the most remarkable pipes in the collection, in some ways, and comes from Mr W. L. Stone’s collection, mostly made in Saratoga county, or in that vicinity. It is commonly known as the Washington pipe, and as the full resemblance depends on little things the aid of the camera has been called in that every minute detail might be supplied. The figure of a sitting man forms the bowl, the bust out of proportion to the lower parts, but art requires some conventionalism. The head is fine, the hair full, and gathered into a cue which hangs low down on the back. In some points of view the resemblance to Washington is very strik- ing, but it is a type of pipe anterior to his day by nearly 100 years. The head is characteristically European; the work that of an Iro- quois. We need not be surprised at this. If the native artist could 132 _ NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM imitate one thing, he might another, and that he did figure European animals, articles, and in some instances men, is very plain. The wonder, therefore, is not so much in the European head and hair, as in the suggestive likeness found in this case. Otherwise the style is that of the 17th century, and some French or English officer probably called forth the artist’s admiration. It is 74 inches long. Fig. 212 is a fine and curious pipe of brown clay from Jefferson county. The rim is broad, contracting beneath. The expanded base of the bowl is handsomely engraved, above the large and plain stem. ‘The general style is rare. | Fig. 213 is a fine and unique pipe from West Bloomfield, and is 74 inches long. It is of black clay, and has grooves around the top of the bowl. Two serpents raise their heads above the front of this, their bodies following the curve of the pipe below the stem, under the bottom of which there is a long groove. Fig. 214 is a dark colored pipe from Genesee county, of what is known as the Huron type of Canada, but which is also found on early Mohawk sites late in the 16th century, as well as elsewhere. The bowl is angular, with deep elliptic and curved indentations, and long grooves-and lines of indentations extend along the curving stem. It is one of the best examples of this well-known form, and is 4% inches long. Fig. 215 is another pipe from West Bloomfield, and is of a gray- ish mottled clay. The length is about 42 inches. A squirrel occu- pies the front of the bowl, raising its head above the edge. Fig. 216 is a spirited pipe from Honeoye Falls, near which were early historic Seneca sites. A man crouches on top of the bowl, with folded arms, facing the smoker. Grooves cross his body and limbs, he wears a small round cap, and might be taken for one of La Salle’s sailors rather than an Indian. There are four grooves around the stem near the center. The extreme length of this fine pipe is 64 inches. Fig. 217 is a remarkably long pipe from the same place, being a trifle over 9} inches in length. It is black, like many other pipes from that region, and has a fine eagle on the top of the bowl, the “ener EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 133 head being very large, as in all such cases. There are horizontal grooves on the throat, and two rows of flutings on the upper side of the long stem. It is the longest clay pipe yet reported. Fig. 218 is another unique pipe of reddish clay, from Jefferson county, 54 inches long. . There are grooves and indentations on the front of the bowl, and lying obliquely on the top toward the smoker, is what might be termed a quartered shield, divided by groups of lines running in various directions. Fig. 219 is another still more remarkable pipe, where the unan- swerable testimony of the camera will be found of value in point of detail. This peculiar pipe is from Jefferson county, and is sugges- tive of many things. What bird is represented? When was it made? Mr Twining, who obtained the pipe from Sandy Creek, thought it a parrot, and the thick, curved beak naturally suggests that bird, but is not sharp enough. It has full as much resemblance to the flamingo. The Iroquois, however, seem to have known nothing of the parrot till they extended their wars southward, after the downfall of the Eries in the middle of the 17th century. Yet they were kindred to the Eries, the Massawomekes, and the Tuscaroras of the south, and thus might have known something ‘of southern birds at an early day. On the other hand, nearer home, this head may have been but an exaggeration of the thick bill of the coot or some other member of the duck family. Accur- ate likeness of anything it certainly is not, and something is exag- _ gerated, though we can hardly say what or how much. One north- ern bird might put in a strong claim, the razor-billed auk, which _ at times frequents the Gulf of St Lawrence and the New England and New York coasts. It comes nearer to this peculiar outline than any bird now recalled, and the early Iroquois reached its haunts. As to when this pipe was made we have no certain dates. It was found in a region peopled by prehistoric men of the Iroquois family, though it might have have been lost in later days. The character of the pipe, however, suggests the 16th century, at which time the Iroquois lived at peace on the St Lawrence, certainly as low down as Quebec, They went much farther, Thus it is prob- 134 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM able they came in contact with a northern bird more exactly filling the requirements than any southern one that can be named. The likeness was not a success. Besides the deep bill this pipe has the raised eyes frequently found in pipes of the 16th century, while the grooves and dots on the front of the bowl attest its Iroquois char- acter, although made before the league was formed. The length | is nearly 44 inches. Fig. 220 is another curious and probably early Jefferson county pipe. The singular decoration on one side of the face has been called a military hat, and was probably suggested by a head dress of some kind. There are the usual grooves on the front of the bowl, and a face appears toward the rear, on one side of which is a broad half-circular appendage, ornamented with dots and inden- tations neatly arranged. Dots appear about the face. It is not a large pipe, being about 3 inches long. Fig. 221 is another odd pipe from Jefferson county, which has lost part of the plain and curved stem, and is now hardly 34 inches long. The bowl is oblong, having some resemblance to a black- smith’s anvil at the broad and unequally projecting rim. In the center of the bowl is an expansion, with vertical erooves and dots, and faces in relief before and behind. This part varies but little from some other forms, but the projecting rim is a striking feature. The Iroquoian character of the early inhabitants of Jefferson county, in the main, plainly appears from many of their pipes, and while some of these are of an earlier type, many of them can scarcely be distinguished from those of the 17th century. There are reasons for supposing the early Onondagas came thence about the time of the beginning of the long Huron war, as the Mohawks left the St Lawrence at the same time. About that time, also, several novelties were introduced into pipe-making in New York, as well as in the decoration of earthenware. The evidence for this is clear. One reason for this was in the change of location; another in the new and close contact of the several nations who met to form and perpetuate the Iroquois league; another still in their adoption of foreign captives, who brought new arts to the homes of the vic- tors. The change affected the Cayugas and Senecas less, because EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 135 they retained their old homes, while the Mohawks, Oneidas and Onondagas began a new life amid new scenes. The state collection has a very good representation of pipes of clay and stone from Jefferson county, and there are several -de- tached heads from the former, showing that one style, prevalent in other places in the 17th century, was also made there, and prob- ably not long before. The fine owl’s head bowl appears, and the trumpet pipe in a simple character. Two raised angles on the _rim of some bowls, connect this with Onondaga county. Some mas- sive trumpet pipes, with an abruptly projecting rim, differ from most of this type. The open-mouthed serpent forms a conspicuous and characteristic bowl, and the corded bowl has a less typical repre- sentation. One fine clay pipe has a human face turned from the smoker. In general, however, this early feature is preserved. by placing such faces on the back of the bowl; and where these ar human faces they are usually large and grotesque. There are sev- eral fine examples of these, and they are found in other collections. They might be called the typical pipe of that extensive field. Mr A. E. Douglass did not classify his pipes by material, but out of 375 he had 43 from New York. Ohio came next with 4o, and then Tennessee with 39. He gave no list of earthenware. MISCELLANEOUS Excepting tobacco pipes and vessels of clay, the articles of earth- enware made by the New York Indians were very few in number, and some of these were adaptations from those which had been broken. Most of the small disks or counters were chipped out of potsherds, and some detached heads may have come from broken pipes. This is not always the case, but the number of articles showing original design is so far surprisingly small. Fig. 222 shows the largest clay disk as yet reported from New York, and it is in the state collection as one of the articles in Mr Twining’s fine array of relics from Jefferson county, where most things are of prehistoric date. A large fragment of pottery has been cut into an irregularly circular form, and perforated near the center. From this perforation 11 incisions radiate to the outer edge. The secondary work is clearly seen, as it is in simpler ex- 136 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM amples. Such disks, perforated or not, but usually smaller, occur sparingly on many early Iroquois sites. They scarcely survived the coming of the white man. | Fig. 223 shows one of several of the more common form, found at Schenck’s Gulf, east of Palatine Bridge. ‘The perforated forms, which are more frequent in Canada than here, were called terra cotta beads by Sir J. W. Dawson. He was probably in error, judg- ing from his figure, in saying that ‘a cheaper kind of bead was made of clay, molded into ornamental discs and baked.’ Molded clay beads, however, do exist, though his example is of a different kind. The large perforated disk, before figured, was probably used like the shell and stone gorget, and secured by a knotted cord drawn through the hole. Fig. 224 is a neatly. cut disk, made from a potsherd, and comes from the Onondaga fort of 1600, west of Cazenovia. Similar speci- mens are not rare there. This one has the edges smoothly cut, but they are usually less neatly worked. _ Fig. 225 is from the same site, and is one of the best examples yet found, being smooth and symmetrical, and apparently the original design. The edges are neatly rounded, and it is thicker than the usual form. It might have been used in some game, but | we know of none at that day requiring an article of this kind, though some purpose it would seem to have had. Fig. 226 is a peculiar terra cotta mask, found at Cold Spring, Putnam county. It is of so marked a character as to have called _ forth shrewd surmises as to its origin, and presents such a finished appearance in full view as to lead some to think it complete in itself. The owner, however, Mr James Nelson, of Cold Spring, says * The back shows that it has been attached to something.’ It may there- fore be placed with those fragmentary figures from pipes so often found. A large number of fine articles of this nature might be figured, both early and recent. Fig, 227 is an odd relic from the mouth of Cia creek, near Rome. It seems intended for a rude representation of the human face, with circles for the eyes and mouth, and a long groove for the nose, EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 137 Fig. 228 is a small terra cotta head, much like the next, and comes | from an early historic site south of Delphi. It does not seem to have been part of a pipe, but is much like a curious article described by Sir J. W. Dawson in his Fossil men, from Montreal. Of these he said, ‘The Hochelagan women, however, had a very ingenious contrivance for hanging their pots over the fire, which deserves notice. They had no doubt found by experience that when an earthen pot was hung over the fire by strings or withes tied to the outside, the flames would sometimes reach the perishable means of suspension, and, burning it, allow the pot to fall, and its con- tents.to be lost. Hence they contrived a mode of fastening the cord within the throat of the vessel, where the fire could not reach it. This hook for suspension was made in the shape of a human head and neck, the hole for the cord being left behind the neck. Many of these heads were found detached, and their use was not known till the fragment illustrated was found.’ This Onondaga fragment may be of this kind, but the practice could not have been common. The simpler method of inserting a stick too long to be withdrawn when turned horizontally, as a point of attachment for the cord, would satisfy most Indian housewives. Certainly, in New York, detached heads suitable for such uses are rare. Fig. 229 much resembles the last, but is larger, and more sugges- . tive of use on a pipe. It is from Jefferson county. Fig. 230 is much more recent, but comes from the Onondaga town of 1654. During its later occupancy European pipes found their way there, and perhaps even at an earlier day. The material was rare as yet, and the thrifty Onondagas, “men of business,’ as a later French missionary called them, saw a possibility of an orna- ment in the broken pipe stem of the white man. If slender, it was needful only to smooth the ends; if thick and heavy, it might be carved and made more ornamental still. The white and carved pipe stem here shown is of unusual thickness, but early pipes varied greatly inthis. It has been'cut in several ways. Fig. 231 is of a generally rectangular form, though each edge is slightly convex. It is beveled from the central square on each side, and grooves appear on every face. It could hardly have been 138 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM used as a personal ornament, and there is no game known to which it can be assigned, unless it might be that of the moccasin, where an article is hid in one of three shoes by one party, to be found by the other. It seems most reasonable to infer that similar articles may have been used in some game. Fig. 232 is unmistakably a complete article, found on the Nellis farm, near Canajoharie. It is a neatly made bird of the hawk family, broad-shouldered and with folded wings. It shows a per- foration by which it might be suspended or worn. A conjectural use would be that of a token or amulet, such as we know were some- times kept by the Iroquois, much like the medicine of other nations. Fig. 233 suggests a similar use, though of a different kind. It was found on the Oneida river about the year 1840, and represents a recumbent lamb with a raised head, in terra cotta, although the ears suggest an animal of a very different nature. Ifthe first form be allowed, it might be considered the Agnus Dei of some devout Iroquois convert, but both the identification and use are uncertain. It is quite probable that the Iroquois then knew little of living lambs, while quite familiar with their representations. In any case, this figure had probably some sacred use. Fig. 234 is a fragment of what was apparently a large and pretty disk, ornamented both on the edges and sides in sweeping lines. It is of a light mud color, and was found at Brewerton. So little is left of it that its true form and use can not now be determined, but no secondary work appears on it. Fig. 235 is a head from a recent Cayuga site near Mapleton, and the projection over the eyes, as well as the general character of the head dress, gives the impression of a helmet of steel. Caps of similar kinds are more common among the Cayugas and Senecas than farther east, as they longer maintained their primitive arts. The cock’s and boar’s head are among other examples of their terra cotta work. Fig. 236, a, b, c, d, e, f, show Cayuga clay beads and pendants; a being a thick disk bead, d an oblong one, and e, f, two which are spherical. Two clay pendants appear in b, c. These are nowhere common, | EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES 139 Fig. 237 is a clay bead from Rice’s woods, a recent site east of Stone Arabia. None have been reported from the Onondagas and Oneidas. Shell beads were more to their liking when they could be had. Early antiquaries spoke of them in the Seneca territory, and Dawson says that on islands in the St Lawrence, ‘In addition to jars and pipes, the only frequent objects of earthenware are small discs, perforated in the center and crenated at the edge. They may have served as an inferior kind of wampum, or beads, or per- haps for the playing of some game of chance.’ It may be added that while there are many disks made from potsherds in the Toronto collection, Mr Boyle says nothing of true clay beads, and Dr Rau mentioned neither in his report on the Smithsonian collection. Fig. 238 is a clay disk from Tribeshill, perforated, and with the edges of the hole slightly raised. Its form is very near a true circle, and it will be readily seen that this is the original design. The age is uncertain. Fig. 239 is a very pretty disk of unusual character, found a quar- ter of a mile above the bridge at Canajoharie. It is not perforated, but there is a circular indentation near the center, whence six grooves radiate like a star. These are connected by concentric grooves, four in number. - The edge is crenated, and the whole effect pleasing. Its use is conjectural, but it is quite likely the Indian who made it had seen circles and six-pointed stars laid out with compasses, though he did not use them on this. Fig. 240 is a wolf’s head of clay, having almost a yellowish glaze. It was probably part of a pipe, but is remarkable for its high finish. It was found at the recent stockade south of Delphi. Many pipes of that period have well polished surfaces. It may be added that all these miscellaneous figures are of actual size. In one detached human head from near the mouth of Oneida creek, where a crest crosses the head longitudinally after the man- ner of the Cheveux-relevez, the small and protuberant eyes are darker and more polished than the face, and have the appearance of inlaid beads. The head, however, probably came from a pipe. The boar’s head sometimes occurs, as that animal soon attracted attention, not always favorable. When the Mohawk chief, Kiotsaeton, addressed a I40 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM the French governor, July 2, 1645, urging him to make a settle- ment in the Mohawk country, he said, “ Leave these stinking pigs, which run among your habitations, which eat nothing but what is filthy, and come and eat of good victuais with us.’ A small boar’s head from an Iroquois site in the Seneca country is very accurately worked out, and has also the remarkable feature of being hollow. The Senecas alone seem to have made heads in this way. It will thus be seen that New York aboriginal work in clay took a very narrow range outside of pipes and pots. Small amulets, disks and beads comprise nearly everything that was made, and examples of these are few in number. The reason is obvious. Pots and pipes of necessity being made of clay were often finely adorned; for mere ornament they chose more showy and less fragile materials. Fig. 147a is inserted out of its proper place, and is somewhat reduced, being 24 inches long. It is a curious article, broken at the broad end and sharpened at the other. It is a little wider the other way. In appearance it is precisely like the frequent punches made from sharpened prongs of antlers, but is of clay, the neat pointing having been made before burning. Its purpose, of course, was the same as that of the horn punch, but why clay was used when horn was abundant is a puzzle. The owner thought it the leg of a pot. It was found in the vicinity of Canandaigua lake, and its occurrence suggests how many odd forms may come to our knowl- edge through closer observation. ; A general view has thus been given of aboriginal se in clay in New York. It is necessarily somewhat summary in treatment, leaving out many fine pipes, specially, because these are so many that typical examples alone can be given. In the hard work of cataloguing, Mr Richmond has never lost sight of making notes of place and history, whenever possible, an indispensable feature in study of this kind. Future students will appreciate what has been so faithfully done, and the New York collection will have a value altogether above the beauty and variety of its articles. The aid of all is asked in making it more complete. EARTHENWARE OF THE NEW YORK ABORIGINES I4I ADDENDA It is expected that additions will be made to the types of articles published in these preliminary bulletins, and these may be occa- sionally noted. One of interest is an obsidian leaf-shaped knife, 24 inches long, recently found on the Seneca river, being the first one reported in the state. One had been found in Pennsylvania before this, but otherwise this material is not known in the east. It is thus a notable find. | Among articles of polished stone is a rare form of wide distribu- tion in Ohio, one of which has been found in Canada, and now one appears in the state collection at Albany, having been found in Genesee county. It is a spherical piece of striped slate, with a large perforation smallest at one:end. In this one the stripes run around the stone, which is a little over 2 inches in diameter. The peculiarity is a longitudinal groove in one side of the stone, the edges being neatly rounded. Another notable article is a tapering cylindric granite pestle from Canajoharie, belonging to Mr Richmond. It is 264 inches long, and 24 thick in the largest part. About 34 inches from the small end it is perforated. One of Mr Richmond’s recent acquisitions is a beautiful and unusually long stone pipe of greenish gray slate, from the town of Palatine. It is 9 inches long. Two large grooved boulders from Onondaga county have been placed near the cases at Albany. The straight uniform grooves in these are commonly supposed to have been used in arrow making. In one of the cases is a flat pebble similarly grooved, which comes from the Genesee valley. This article has not been reported so far west before, nor are small ones anywhere common. This is 6 inches long by 22 broad. Usually they are large stones, not in- tended to be moved. ; From the Cayadutta site Mr Robert M. Hartley, of Amsterdam, has a small ornament of slate, less than I inch in extent, of the general figure of the butterfly banner stones, but it probably belongs to a very different class, although strongly suggestive of this. In any case it is of much interest, as are some other small slate orna- ments found at the same place. 142 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM An examination of a collection in Jefferson county, near Water- town, shows curious forms. in pottery. The narrow projecting angles of some vessels extend outward 2} inches, and may have served for handles. Two examples of open handles occur, but of different forms. There is one small perforated disk. Several pipes of the Jefferson county types have recently-been found in Onon- daga, and the early relations of the two groups are now more distinct. . s , eee aN ie * 3 2 J ~ : Ry Lie % % PPTE artis ee LY BABA DM do.

General entomologic features. The year has been characterized by excessive damages to trees in both city and country. Reports have been received from many localities of widespread injuries by the tent caterpillars, Cliszocampa americana Fabr. and C, dsstria Hiibn. The white-marked tussock moth, Votolophus leucostigma Sm.-Abb., was reported as unusually destructive to shade trees in various parts of the state, while in Albany its injuries have been greater than for several years. A remarkable outbreak occurred at Schenectady, the light green larvae of Xylina antennata Walker appeared in such num- bers that a large portion of the many soft maples in that city was defoliated. Such destructive work by this species has never been recorded, and isa striking example of what a comparatively harmless insect can do, provided the conditions are favorable. Another interest- ing feature was the presence of zebra caterpillars, Wamestra picta Harris, in such abundance on recently gathered timothy hay as to literally cover it. Hitherto, this pest has been regarded as an enemy to cabbage and related garden crops, more rarely attacking other plants. The leaves of many elms have been seriously injured by an unknown leaf miner. The cottony maple-tree scale, Pulvinaria innumerabilis Rathvon, has been extremely abundant and destructive throughout the state, affecting the soft maples most seriously. The destructive brown dpricot scale of California, Lecanium armeniacum Craw, was discovered in Erie county on 154 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM grapevine. Its eradication was recommended, and it is believed that it has been effected. Elm-leaf beetle. The widespread injuries for the last few years by the elm-leaf beetle along the Hudson river valley, induced the prepara- tion of an illustrated museum bulletin (Museum bulletin 20) on this most. pernicious insect, which was issued in the middle of July, at a time when the extremely destructive work of the insect was apparent to all. The demand for this bulletin indicates a general interest in the methods of controlling this species. In addition, a number of articles treating of . this pest have been sent to local papers and addresses delivered in adja- cent places at several meetings called for the special purpose of consider- ing the best manner of subduing this insect. It is hopedthat the agitation of this year will lead to more effective control another season. San Jose scale. The recent law placing the inspection of all nursery stock in the state under the direction of the commissioner of agriculture, has emphasized the intimate relations that should continue to exist between this office and his department. While the law was designed primarily to prevent the spread of this scale insect, Aspidiotus perniciosus Comstock, it was so drawn as to include ‘ dangerously injurious insects,” and to the entomologist the commissioner gave the delicate task of deter- mining what species came within the scope of the law. In addition, my opinion has been asked in regard to cases in which appeal from the decision of the inspector had been made to the commissioner of agricul- ture, and many examples of scale insects were submitted to me for determination. When it is stated, that in order to be positive in regard to the identity of a scale insect, in many cases the creature must first be treated with potassium hydrate and a microscopic preparation made, some idea of the time occupied by this work will be gained. Office publications. In addition to the bulletin on the elm-leaf beetle, the early part of the year was largely occupied by the work inci- dent to the publication and distribution of the late Dr Lintner’s 12th report, for the year 1896, and preparation of his 13th report, for the year 1897, now in press. The prominent place among economic entomolo- gists occupied by Dr Lintner, and the most excellent character of all his work, rendered it very desirable that his numerous publications should be made accessible to all, so far as possible. Therefore, in addition toa short notice of his life, a bibliography of his writings, giving ,a_ brief abstract, title, place and date of publication, and a general index of his 13 reports, based on the extended one in that for 1894, have been pre- pared as a supplement to this report, and will appear in a subsequent bulletin. As much of this work had to be done in the early summer, at a REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 1595 time when field work could most profitably be undertaken, original investigation was necessarily somewhat limited. Office work. The routine office work of the division ‘during the past summer has been heavier than at any time since my connection with the office. Without attempting any radical innovations, it has been my aim to render services of the greatest practical value to the public. The numerous calls for information from all quarters indicate that my efforts hive been greatly appreciated. The demand for press notices, mainly agricultural, has been greater than that recorded any previous year. Abstracts of my principal publications, 72 in number, are given in a sub- sequent portion of this report. The presentation in agricultural and other journals of reliable information regarding insects should be encour- aged, as it brings the recommendations before farmers and others at a time when they are of the greatest value, which is not always true of bul- letins and reports. Considerable attention has been paid to this branch of the work with most gratifying results. A large portion of these notices have appeared in the Country gentleman, one of the best agricultural weeklies, -but in no case has preference been shown to any paper. Every request for information has received due attention. The correspondence has been unusually heavy. The number of letters received since January 1 is 748%, and the number written is 1199. Most of the queries resulted from a general desire for information, though some were due to exces- sive ravages by tent caterpillars and other insects. ‘The work of the division has been greatly facilitated by the assign- ment to it of a junior clerk, Miss M. I. Bull, whose services, though she had no previous entomologic training, have been a great aid, relieving me of considerable clerical work and thus allowing time for more import- ant duties. The purchase of a good field camera constitutes a valuable addition to the equipment of the office. Collection of insects. The state collection of insects remains prac- tically as it was at the beginning of the year, with additions as given later in this report. The pressing duties of the office during the past few years have prevented much desirable work being done on the collection. Since my connection with the University, a number of new boxes have been bought, most of the insects referred to their various families, and in a few instances, those of a family have received their generic and specific labels. A beginning has also been made on a biologic collection, some- thing the late Dr Lintner had been laboring to bring about for years. a The death of Dr Lintner at the time the rath report was issued, deterred many from acknowledging its receipt, thus reducing the number of letters received. The cards accompanying the reports were counted, as previously, hence the discrepancy between the letters received and written. 156 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM The accommodations provided for the collection are far from adequate. During the past 18 years a vast amount of material has been accumulat- ing, and when properly worked up, will be found a mine of information, The state collection needs more room. At present, part is in wooden trays with glass tops and part in pasteboard boxes. A first class box or tray should be decided on and then the whole collection overhauled,. classified and rendered accessible to the public. At present the speci- mens are threatened with injury on account of dampness, the result of a leaky roof, or they may be destroyed by museum pests, as none of the trays or boxes are as tight as they should be. The work on the biologic collection should be pushed, special attention being paid to the forms of economic importance. An exhibit of this character would prove a most important educational factor, and would be of the greatest practical value to all in the vicinity. If, in addition to this, some plan were devised whereby small biologic collections could be prepared and either tempo- rarily lent to granges or other organizations interested in the advance- ment of applied science or placed on exhibition at farmers’ institutes, fairs and other gatherings, specially if in charge of one competent to explain the salient points in the life history of the various forms, a moderate outlay would not only advance the agricultural interests of the state, but would also bring the office into closer touch with those whom it is. designed to serve. The private collection belonging to the late incumbent is still in the office and would be an invaluable addition to the state collection, con- taining, as it does, many rare and unique forms. Division library. To-obtain the best results, it is absolutely neces- sary to have a good library at hand. During his tenure of office, the late Dr Lintner depended for reference very largely on his private library, a collection of books and papers that has few, if any, equals, so: far as economic entomology is concerned. Many of the books are rare, and several of the sets of serial publications are supplementary to those belonging to the state. If possible, it should be bought for this division. J. A. Lintner. In the death of Joseph Albert Lintner, Ph. D.,. the state sustained a great loss and the science of economic entomology was called on to mourn a leader. It is hoped that the grand work begun by him 18 years ago will be carried on, and that the practical side of the science will ever be kept in mind. Acknowledgments. At this time I wish to acknowledge the many favors and courtesies received at the hands of Dr L. O. Howard, chief of the division of entomology at Washington, and his associates. Every REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 157 request, either for the name of an insect or for further information regarding it, has been promptly honored. The advantage of such a central bureau, where a number of specialists are constantly working on certain orders or families, can be appreciated only by those who have some conception of the immense number of insects and of the utter impossibility of identifi- cation of all the varied forms by one person. In conclusion, I wish to express my appreciation of the opportunities afforded me by the regents during the past few months, and for the support that has been given my every effort to render this office of greater practical value. : Respectfully submitted EPHRAIM PORTER FELT Acting state entomologist 158 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM INJURIOUS INSECTS BYTURUS UNICOLOR Say Pale brown Byturus Ord. Coleoptera: Fam. Dermestidae A number of examples of this small beetle were brought to me May 23, by Dr C. H. Peck, state botanist, with the information that from one to five or more were to be found in the opening buds of his rasp- berry plants. A little later he informed me that his bushes had been injured to a considerable extent by the work of this species. The attack is of considerable interest, as there is no record of its having proved injurious since 1870, when Dr Fitch noticed briefly the work of its larvae upon the fruit. Lack of record by no means indicates its absence; on the contrary it is more probable that considerable of the unknown injury to raspberry plants, indicated by failure to bear well, has been caused by the work of this insect. Injuries and distribution. The beetles not only eat into the fruit buds of the plant, thereby destroying the berry at its inception, but, according to Dr Packard, may also eat long strips in the leaves. Dr Fitch states that the white larvae of the insect are very common on the fruit throughout the country, their presence rendering the berries unfit for food. The earliest injuries known are those in Massachusetts and New York in 1870, the former by the beetles to the leaves and fruit buds and the latter by the larvae to the fruit itself. In 1873, William Saunders reported this species as very destructive to the blossoms, presumably in the vicinity of Ottawa, Canada. At Lansing, Mich., much damage was inflicted on raspberry blossoms by this or a closely allied species in 1885, according to Prof. C. P. Gillette. The beetles were again destructive in Canada in 1887, appearing in numbers and doing considerable damage to the buds and flowers (Fletcher). In her 15th report for the year 1893, Miss Ormerod records serious and wide- spread injuries to raspberries in England by the closely allied Ayfurus tomentosus. The damage done in England may be taken as an indica- tion of the injury that our American form may possibly inflict. Besides feeding on the raspberry, &. uzicolor was observed by Prof. Webster eat- ing out the blossom buds of a species of Geum, either rzvale or album. a eee ee REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 — 159 LeConte and Horn (see citation) state that but one species, obviously B. unicolor, occurs in the Atlantic district. The present record indicates that it is pretty well distributed over the eastern United States and extends north into Canada. Description. The beetles are about 4+ inch long, subcylindric, and . of a pale reddish brown color. With a lens, the dense, rather long | pale, tawny hairs covering the entire upper surface are easily distin- guished; the vestiture of the under surface is shorter. The larva has been described by Dr Fitch as follows: When examined with a magnifying glass, these worms are found to be plump and cylindric, slightly tapered at each end, and nearly ~ inch in length when fully grown. They are white, each segment having on the back a broad, pale, tawny yellow band occupying more than half its surface, and being also furnished with a few short, erect, whitish hairs. The mouth is darker, tawny yellow. On the breast are three pairs of legs, but none on the body back of these, except at the tip, which is prolonged into a single proleg of a short conic form, and blunt at its end; and on the apex of the last segment, above the base of the proleg, are two minute projecting points, appearing like two deep red dots. Life history. The beetles occur on the raspberries the latter part of May, and in Massachusetts till after the middle of June, as stated by Dr Packard. The eggs are probably laid on the developing fruit, as is recorded by Miss Ormerod of the related B. tomentosus. The following notes on its life history are based on records by Dr Fitch. ‘The larvae are usually found lying on the inner side of the cup or cavity in the berry. When full grown they drop to the ground or fall with the fruit and transform to pale, dull, yellowish pupae under leaves or other rub- bish, where they remain till the following May. Miss Ormerod states that B. comentosus pupates under the sheltering bark of the raspberry or in some similar place. It is possible that our species also pupates to some extent on the canes. Remedies. The beetles can probably be controlled by spraying with an arsenite. Hand picking or beating them from the bushes into pans containing water and a little kerosene, has also been recommended. The latter will be more effective if done in the cooler part of the day, as the beetles will be less likely to take flight. There are no effective means of dealing with the larvae. If the insect becomes numerous in a patch, it might be advisable to burn all the trimmings and rubbish, in order to destroy as many of the hibernating individuals as possible. 160 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Bibliography Say, Thomas.

Diptera: Fam. Trypetidae The small maggot of the gooseberry midge, Cecidomyia grossulariae Fitch, has long been known to breed in currants and gooseberries, thus destroying the fruit. This insect and its destructive work was described a Volume and page references are separated by a colon, e. g. 3: 197 means volume 3, page 197. ees ae REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 161 and commented upon by Dr Fitch in 1854. It is only in later years, however, that the maggot of another species of fly was detected injuring the fruit of these plants in a very similar manner, and it is possible that its work in earlier years was confounded with that of the gooseberry midge. Operations in New York state. The work of this insect was first brought to the notice of Dr Lintner by Mrs H. D. Graves, of Ausable Forks, N. Y., in May 1890, when the trouble was so serious in her locality that some neighbors destroyed their currant bushes on account of the numerous maggots infesting the fruit. Both the white and red varieties were attacked. Again,in 1894, Mr J. G. Collett, of Camden, N. Y., wrote that nearly all of his gooseberries fell off every year before they were fully matured, owing to the presence of ‘a small white worm or maggot just under the skin’ This attack could be referred to no other than the above-named species. With such a record in the two places where this insect has established itself in this state, it bids fair to be as serious an enemy to the currant and gooseberry as is the closely related apple maggot, Zrypeta pomonella, to the apple. Its injuries in other localities where it has been found are so great that it may well be classed as a dangerous insect pest. Distribution. This insect has been recorded from but a few widely separated localities, and is most probably a native form. It was origi- nally described from Maine or Canada. Prof. Gillette found it abundant in Colorado; it was sent to the U.S. Department of agriculture from West Ferndale, Wash.; it has been reported recently as abundant in that state and Dr Fletcher has long known of injuries to black cur- rants in British Columbia by what is most probably this insect. In New York state it has been very abundant in two localities distant from each other and may be more generally distributed throughout the state than is supposed. Life history. The following account of the life history and habits of this fly is a résumé of the detailed paper on it by Prof. Harvey (see cita- tion), which should be consulted for farther information. The flies were first observed by him in nature about June 1, though punctures on the fruit at that time indicated an earlier appearance. There is but one generation annually. The imagoes were most abundant June 9-15, all having disappeared by the 25th. ‘The eggs are deposited singly, the female requiring about five minutes for the insertion of each just beneath the skin of the fruit, where they may easily be seen a little to one side of 162 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM the nearly invisible puncture, which soon becomes surrounded by a brown areola. They are deposited most largely in the earliest berries to appear, i. e. those at the base of the bunch. After emerging from the egg, the young larva works its way along under the skin of the berry, usually leaving a trail, for perhaps a third or half of the circumference, and then in most cases enters one of the seeds. It soon becomes too large for its refuge and may then be found lying between the seeds and feeding upon them. Occasionally two or three larvae are found within a single berry. The injured seeds turn black and become cemented together. Later, the infested currants show a clouded appearance on the side, “occasioned by the presence of the larva; soon that cheek turns red, becomes darker and finally black. The infested berries mpen early and drop, often before the larvae have matured, but occasionally the currants on the bushes show the exit hole cut by the matured larva in its escape to the ground. Many, however, remain in the fallen fruit for several days before emerging therefrom for pupation, some for over three weeks, though most of them forsake the berries within a week. The larvae pupate either in the soil or under some convenient shelter on the surface during the latter part of June or early in July, the fly appear- ing the following spring. Remedies. About the only satisfactory methods of fighting this insect are the destruction of the infested fruit with the contained insect or killing it while still in the ground. The most practical method of controlling this species is, in most cases, to allow chickens to run among the bushes, as they will devour much of the infested fruit. If the ground is kept cultivated, and the fowls are allowed to scratch, many pupae will be destroyed in this manner. Another remedy that promises to be effective is spraying the ground under the bushes with kerosene emulsion after the insects have pupated. If this was done just before a rain, the emulsion would be washed into the soil and come in contact with the pupae. This treatment should be as fatal to this insect as it has proved in the case of white grubs in the soil. Bibliography Loew, Hermann.

Lymantriidae The destructiveness of this pest has been so marked and widespread in cities and towns, and inquiries for remedies so numerous, that in spite of the fact that it is, or should be, a well-known insect, it is deemed desirable to notice this species at some length. Though very injurious, it is controlled with comparative ease, and this should be kept before the public, even at the cost of some repetition. Ravages in 1898. This insect has proved a serious pest in a number of cities within the state. In Albany, most of the horsechest- nuts would have been completely defoliated had it not been for the spraying undertaken by the municipal authorities. As it was, a large number were seriously injured, owing to the late application of the poison or to inability to throw the spray to the tops of the larger trees. The leaves were nearly stripped from the lindens, and the numerous white egg clusters give promise of greater injury another year, unless protective measures are adopted. In parts of Troy this insect was even more destructive than in Albany. Reports of serious ravages have been received from other localities. Its cocoons were reported by Chester Young, nursery inspector for the state department of agriculture, as abundant on all kinds of trees at Woodside, L. I., which may well be regarded as an indication of extended injuries already sustained and a sign of worse to come. In Buffalo, this insect has become suclr a pest that the authorities have been stirred to action, A circular has been issued by the board of public works calling upon the citizens to collect and destroy the egg clusters, and giving directions for the same and also 164 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM for spraying in the spring. It is expected that this call will be supple- mented by the city fighting the pest where it is impossible for land hold- ers to accomplish the desired object. Injuries to fruit trees. In earlier years this was regarded as a very serious enemy of the apple-tree in Ontario, for Rev. C. J. S. Bethune, writing in 1871, stated that it was a bad pest, and that in the western states it had defoliated some orchards and even attacked the fruit. In his second report, Dr Lintner records several instances of severe injuries to fruit trees by this species. Serious depredations have also been reported by Mr Lowe, entomologist of the agricultural experiment station at Geneva. In 1895 he received many complaints, specially from Yates and Ontario counties, the larvae not only devouring the foliage, but attacking the fruit. In the report of the station for that year, he writes that one fruit grower estimated the loss on his apple crop at 25%. City pest. Though this insect occurs in the country and occa- sionally is quite destructive to fruit and other trees, it is in the cities and towns that it flourishes and proves most injurious. ‘The cause for this is found largely in the protection afforded by the English sparrow, which not only fails to feed upon it, but drives away native birds that would. A curious instance of the survival of the fittest and the danger of import- ing some natural enemy for the purpose of keeping in check an injurious insect,.is shown by Dr J. L. LeConte (see citation), who instances the extermination of Lunomos subsignarius Hiibn. in Philadelphia by this imported bird. After the destruction of Azzomos, the larvae of lVoto- lophus found abundant food and, being unmolested by the sparrows on account of their irritating hairs, they soon became an even worse pest than the former species. Description. A casual observer may have his attention arrested by an unusually pretty caterpillar with a coral red head, a pair of long black plumes just over it, a single one at the opposite extrem- ity of the body, four delicate yellowish or white brush-like tufts on its back and just behind them, separated only by a segment, two small, retractile, red elevations. Along the back, except for the tubercles and tufts, there is a broad black band bordered by yellowish subdorsal stripes. Each side is dark gray, except the yellowish tubercles. A black line indicates the position of the spiracles or breathing pores, and below this latter line it is yellow, the legs being paler (fig. 1, a2). This gives the general appearance of the caterpillar after it has become half or two- thirds grown, and at a time when its depredations begin to be apparent. , ae ee 4 a So aa a oP ae ee REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 165 ‘ The recently hatched larva is a pale yellowish or whitish creature with long, irregular hairs.

S. Dep’t agriculture, year book, 1895). When maturity is reached, the larvae spin their thin cocoons in the crevices of the bark (fig. 1, 2), interweaving their long hairs, and within this shelter transform to yellowish white pupae more or less shaded with dark brown or black (fig. 1, 4, ¢). . The difference between the sexes in the adult stage is strikingly shown by comparing in figure 1, @ and «¢, illustrations of the male, with f# that of the female. The former is a beautiful moth with large teathery anten- nae, the legs tufted, and the wings and body delicately marked with 166 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM several shades of gray and grayish white. On the other hand, the female is a nearly uniform gray, with simple antennae, and but rudi- mentary wings. The eggs are deposited on the empty cocoon under conspicuous white masses of froth (fig. 1, 4, 2), which soon hardens and forms a very effec- tive protection. The individual egg is nearly spherical, about -35 mm in diameter, white or yellowish white, and with a light brown spot sur- rounded by a ring of the same color. Life history. The winter is passed in the egg, the young emerging about the latter part of May in this latitude. In his studies of this insect, Dr Riley observed that the larvae molted seven days after hatch- ing, and thereafter every six days till mature, males being produced from those that passed through but four stages and females from those exhibiting five or six. The rearings by Dr Dyar, indicate that the males have six stages and the females six orseven. ‘The growth of the caterpillars occupies a month or a little more, pupation occurring the latter part of June and early in July. In Albany most of the larvae had pupated by July 7 of the present year, and some recently deposited\egg masses were to be seen. In New York city the eggs began to hatch May 25, 1883, and the larvae to pupate about June 21, according to Clarkson (see cita- tion). A few individuals spin up earlier than the mass and some do not till numerous egg clusters indicate that most have already completed the round of life. From ro to 15 days are passed in the pupa state. At the end of this period, the wingless female emerges and crawls upon her cocoon, pairing takes place, and immediately afterwards deposition of the eggs begins, as stated by Dr Howard. They are laid in a mass as described above, the eggs of a cluster ranging in number from 100 to 500, as given by several writers. In what appeared to be a good sized mass collected in Albany, there were 330 eggs. After her full complement has been dis- charged, the female dies and usually drops to the ground. In Albany there is normally one annual generation, but in New York city and vicinity and in Boston, Mass., there are two broods, while at Washington, D. C., there are two and probably three broods each year, according to Dr Howard. Habits of the species. The young larvae feed upon the under sur- face of the foliage, and as they increase in size more and more holes are eaten, till, when full grown, all but the main ribs of the leaves are devoured. A peculiar habit, recorded by Dr Lintner but not observed REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 ae by others outside of Albany, is the girdling-of elm twigs by the larvae of this insect. This is caused by their eating a portion of the bark around the twig near the beginning of the season’s growth. The affected tips soon die, break off, and fall in numbers to the ground. The larvae drop from the trees readily, specially when young, suspending themselves by silken threads, and then may be blown or carried consid- erable distances. When nearly full grown, the caterpillars travel to a great extent, this is said to be specially true of the larger ones, females, and more likely to occur if they are very abundant. At such times there may be quite a migration to other trees. The cocoons are found very generally on the trunks and particularly on the under side of the larger branches. The wingless females, at the time they emerge from their cocoons, attract large numbers of the opposite sex. Dr Lintner records an instance of one attracting 100 males within an hour. Collections at electric lights in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., by Dr Dyar, show that the males fly during July and into August. Food plants. Though this insect is commonly destructive to com- paratively few trees, it has been recorded as feeding on a number of plants, as the following list will show: Linden, @ geranium (¢/argonium), @grape, horsechestnut, buckeye, maples (specially the soft and Norway), box elder, honey locust, apricot, garden plum, wild plum (/runus chicasa), garden cherry, choke cherry, rose, pear, apple, quince, ash, castor-oil plant, elm (several species), hackberry (Ce/#s), sycamore or buttonwood, butternut, black walnut, hickory, oak, birch, alder, willow, poplar, spruce, fir, larch and cypress. Though Dr Howard excludes conifers from the food plants of this insect, the species mentioned above are given on the authority of records by earlier writers. It is probable that farther observation would lead to a much greater extension of this list, and certain ones might have to be thrown out on account of the larvae eating them only under most exceptional circumstances. Distribution. This native species ‘ranges from Jacksonville, Fla., to Nova Scotia on the eastern coast and extends west certainly as far as Keokuk, Ia., and probably farther.’ (Howard?) It has been recorded as common in Nebraska by McMillan, and Prof. F. L. Washburn (see citation) reports the same from Oregon. Other forms of Notolophus. There are several other species in the country belonging to this genus, one of which, VV. definita Packard, “Not previously recorded to my knowledge. o Year book.

REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 169 cuckoo, Coccyzus erythropthalmus Wils., and the yellow-billed cuckoo, Coccyzus americanus Linn. It will be found true as a rule, that in cities where these birds are absent or have been driven out by the English sparrows, this pest flourishes, while in the country, where the native birds are more abundant, this insect is rarely injurious. The insect parasites of this species are extremely valuable allies and should be encouraged in every practical manner. The recent extensive studies of these by Dr L. O. Howard (see citation), have made valuable and very material additions to our knowledge of these interestingforms. He has shown that in Washington, D. C., Pimpla inguisitor Say and Chalcs ovata Say (fig. 2, 3) are the two species most effective in controlling this pest, ana that large numbers of the former insect hibernate as larvae within the cocoons of the host, while in no instance was the latter para- site reared from cocoons of /Vofolophus taken the previous winter. He Fig. 3 : CHALCIS OVATA: a, pupa; 4, parasitized pupa of Notolophus ; c, adult; d, outline of same from side; ¢, pupal exuvium—enlarged (after. Howard: U. S. Dep’t agriculture, Division entomology, Tech. ser. no. 5, 1897). has also shown that when hymenopterous parasites are comparatively scarce, certain tachinids may destroy large numbers of this pest, the more important being Zachina mella Walk., Frontina frenchii Will. and Euphorocera clarifennis Macq. Besides those mentioned above, Dr Howard gives the following as primary parasites of this species: Limpla conguisitor Say, Pimpla annulipes Say, Amorphota orgyiae How,, Meteorus communis Cres., Meteorus hyphantriae Riley, Limneria sp,, Limneria valida Cres., Theronia fulvescens Brullé, Apanteles tdelicatus 170 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM How., Apanteles hyphantriae Riley, Apanteles parorgyiae Ashm., Ptero- malus cuproideus How., Cratotechus orgytae Fitch, Zelenomus orgyiae Fitch, Frontina aletiae Riley, Exorista griseomicans V.d. W. and Win- themia 4-pustulata Fabr. At Washington these parasites became so abundant that in the autumn of 1895 about 90% of the larvae were destroyed. In addition to the above named parasites, Dr Howard records. that /chneumon subcyaneus Cres., Ichneumon coeruleus Cres. and Allocota thyridopterigis Riley were all observed investigating recently formed iVotolophus cocoons and were apparently about to oviposit. The latter, he states, is parasitic upon Pimpla. In his study of these parasites, Dr Howard found that the conditions were not uniform in all parts of the city of Washington, the parasitism being more general in the vicinity of the grounds of the Department of agriculture, where most of the observations were made, than in other portions of the city. The difference due to locality is also shown by the @ parasites in the state collection reared by the Jate Dr Lintner from this. species, though his study of them was by no means so extensive as that at Washington. The one occurring most abundantly was Zachina mella Walk. Fimpla hirticauda Prov., a species not hitherto recorded from ~ this insect, was bred in greater numbers than any other of the larger hymenopterous parasites. Most of the individuals belonging to this species were reared in July, but two appearing in June and a few others in August. /impla ingutsitor Say, P. conquisitor Say and FP. annulipes Brullé occurred in about equal numbers. Of the smaller primary para- sites, Preromalus cuproideus How. and an unnamed species belonging to the same genus were about equally abundant. Though the list of primary parasites is long and includes some very important species, many of these are in turn the victims of enemies. The parasites breeding in those which prey upon injurious forms must be classed as enemies to man, since they protect a species indirectly by destroying large numbers of its parasites. One of the most abundant of the hyperparasites reared by Dr Howard at Washington was Dzdbrachys boucheanus Ratz. (fig. 4), it being present in such force as to almost kill off Fimpla inqguisitor the latter part of 1896. This species was also reared in large numbers by Dr Lintner in 1883. It is in turn, as demonstrated by Dr Howard, preyed upon by Asecodes albitarsis Ashm. ‘The follow- ing is a list of the hyperparasites of JVotolophus leucostigma, as given by Dr Howard: Hemiteles townsendi Ashm., Bathythrix meteori How., “Determined through the courtesy of Dr L. O. Howard.

A number of scavengers were reared by Dr Howard from the pupae or masses of cocoons. The list is as follows: Aelieobia helicis Towns. a Cc ; Z Fig. 4 DIBRACHYS BOUCHEANUS: @, larva; 4, pupa; c, adult female—greatly enlarged; d, head of larva; ¢, antenna of adult—still more enlarged (after Howard; Us S.

This and the preceding lists illustrate in a remarkable degree the large number of forms that may depend more or less upon one species, and afford interesting examples of the relations that may exist between various insects. In addition to these, a Eulophid was reared in some numbers from the cocoons of (Votolophus by Dr Lintner in 1883 and 1884. A der- mestid beetle, -erimegatoma variegatum Worn, has been recorded in Insect life as a very effective destroyer of the eggs of JVotolophus in California. The wheel bug, Prionodus cristatus Linn., is said to prey upon the larvae in the southern states. The present season a mite, a species of * Rhyncholophus, was observed eating the contents of many eggs. @ Determined through the courtesy of Dr L. O. Howard. 172 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Remedies. The simplest and most satisfactory remedy is found im gathering and destroying the egg masses. As the eggs are in a compact mass which is readily torn from the supporting cocoon, either by hand or some form of a scraper, the task is easily and quickly performed. Dr Howard has recommended the use of creosote oil for the destruction of the eggs, since each mass has only to be moistened with the substance. In winter it is necessary to add some turpentine in order to keep the creosote liquid. -On account of the female being wingless, a tree once thoroughly cleaned will not become reinfested very soon if larvae are not abundant nearby, and even then a band of loose cotton bound tightly around the trunk will prevent their ascending and a consequent reinfestation. It should be kept in mind that only the eggs must be collected or destroyed, on account of the beneficial parasites which may occur in cocoons not bearing egg masses. This is specially true in the autumn and applies to a certain extent in the spring, since it has been shown that some parasites hibernate as larvae within the cocoons of the host, and if these are collected and destroyed, it means the death of many beneficial forms. ‘The egg masses are more readily seen after the leaves have fallen and in localities like Albany, where one annual gen- eration is the rule, the gathering of the eggs may well be deferred till autumn. In the case of Boston, New York city and more southern localities, it may be necessary to collect in midsummer those laid by the first brood of moths. In case it is impracticable to coilect the eggs, dependence must be placed upon spraying with some arsenical compound. This is satisfac- tory if properly done early in the season under favorable conditions. In many instances there will be more or.less delay and in practice it is very difficult to have the spraying properly done, and then there may be hindrances incident to several days or a week of rain at the time the poison should be applied. . Not a few wait till the trees show signs of serious injury and then ask for some means of stopping the ravages. Resort may be had to spraying with a larger proportion of poison in order to kill the larvae quickly or they may be shaken from the limbs, provided the tree is not too large. The latter means will give a certain amount of relief where practicable and may be made more effective by the use of cotton bands. to prevent the ascent of those shaken from the tree.

A pple-tree tent caterpillar Ord. Lepidoptera: Fam. Lasiocampidae _The wide-spread and severe ravages of the tent caterpillar the last two or three years have led to a more general desire for knowledge about this species. Though its life history and habits are well known to ento- -mologists and have been repeatedly published, yet, aside from the occur- rence of the larvae in their nests from spring to spring, many seem to have little idea of the insect’s habits. An old and familiar pest. This species attracted the attention of the earliest entomologists. Its conspicuous white nests in the forks of cherry trees along the roadsides and in the neglected orchards of New England were well-known features of the landscape during the spring Fig. 5 Wild cherry-tree detoliated py tent caterpillars (after Weed, C. M.). months in the latter part of the 18th century as well as in the rgth. In the latter part of May it is by no means uncommon to see many of the wild cherry-trees beside the country roads practically leafless, and swarm- 178 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM ing with the caterpillars of this insect, which have issued from the one to 20 or more nests on each of the hapless trees in the search for food. Though this species is easily controlled, as will be shown later, the common practice is apparently to let the caterpillars alone, trusting that natural agents will keep them in control. Extensive ravages during the past two years. Asa result of allowing nature to have her course after the balance between the various forms of life has been disturbed by man, this insect causes more or less damage every year, and frequently commits extensive depredations. The latter has been the case the last two seasons. Complaints were received from many localities of the abundance and destructiveness of these caterpillars. Not only were the native cherry-trees defoliated, but apple orchards suffered severely from the attacks of this insect, specially in the western part of the state where many were stripped of their leaves. Mr S. D. Willard, of ‘Geneva, N. Y., imiormed) memisss spring that tent caterpillars had caused him an unusual amount of trouble, though he had kept close .watch of them. In some locali- ties the losses were increased by the ravages of the so-called forest tent caterpillar, CZszocampa disstria Hiibn., which was also abundant and in some counties excessively injurious. The Weather crop bulletins issued in May and early June of last year give some indication,of the wide- spread abundance of this insect. Such comments as: ‘ Apple-trees cov- ered with caterpillars,’ ‘Caterpillars more numerous than ever before,’ “Caterpillars have ruined some orchards,’ ‘ Many trees nearly stripped by worms,’ and similar expressions from widely separated localities may all be referred to this insect with comparative certainty, and indicate its destructiveness in neglected orchards. From Cambridge, N. Y., came the report last year that the place was simply overrun by the apple-tree tent caterpillar. In 1898 the Weather crop bulletins contained the follow- ing observations: ‘Tent worms hatching out thick,’ ‘Tent worms unusually numerous,’ ‘Tent worms very thick in places.’ The unusual abundance of this familiar pest was patent to anyone traveling in 1897 and 1808, the latter part of May or early in June, either in this or some | of the adjacent states. In many portions of Massachusetts. leafless trees testified to the work of this enemy, and in Vermont the same conditions prevailed to a greater or less extent. Description. Though the tent caterpillar is a very common insect and familiar to almost everyone when found in its conspicuous white nests in the spring, many are unable to positively recognize the larva, unless seen near its nest, few can identify its egg belts, while a still smaller number have any idea of the appearance of the parent moth. a REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 Wt 4 The glistening brown egg belts encircling the smaller twigs of the tree are from -2; to 74, of an inch long. Sometimes the mass of eggs does not completely embrace the twig, though usually there is a more or less narrow union on one side. The ends of the egg mass curve gradually down to the twig, the outer eggs inclining and the outermost lying almost flat, in order to permit this shape. The normal egg mass of this. insect is so thickly covered with the glutinous secretion that the indi- vidual eggs are invisible. The young caterpillars are rarely observed till they have attained some size and their webs on the smaller limbs have become visible. The full grown larvae and their characteristic tents are too well known to need description in connection with the accompanying figure. The yellowish, oblong, oval cocoons with a loose )) Fig. 6. Tent caterpillars and nest (after Riley). texture are not generally recognized as being the product of the familiar tent caterpillar. It will be noticed that when these cocoons are handled, a yellow, sulphur-like powder sifts out. This is the cried paste inter- mingled with the silk at the time the cocoon is spun. ‘The parent moth is buff-colored, with two parallel oblique white lines across the fore wings. The female is about one third larger than the male (see mgure 7, a,c). 180 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM A hermaphrodite. Bisexual or hermaphrodite individuals are among the rarities in the insect world and such examples are highly prized by collectors. This specimen was mentioned by Dr Lintner in the transmittal of his 7th Report as a very interesting rarity, and the present opportunity is taken of recording its features in a permanent Fig. 7. CLISIOCAMPA AMERICANA, a, male; 4, hermaphrodite; c, female (original). form (see fig. 7, 4). The left wings and antenna show so clearly the characters of the female represented above and the right wings and antenna those of the male below, that farther comment is hardly necessary. | Life history and habits. The young are frequently formed within the eggs in the autumn, and only await warm weather before coming REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 181 forth. It has even been stated by Mr H. C. Raymond, of Iowa, that the eggs often hatch in the autumn and that the vitality of the larvae enables them to winter successfully in that latitude. According to Riley, the eggs frequently hatch during an early warm spell and before there is anything for the larvae to feed upon, they subsisting for a time upon the glutinous matter surrounding the eggs. At first the nests are very small and afford little protection to their inmates, but as the caterpillars never move without spinning a thread and frequently crawl over their tents, the nests soon become much denser and afford considerable shelter from the weather. Many have probably noticed that the nests or tents are composed of a series of layers of silk with just about room enough between for the caterpillars and they may have wondered how the larvae began a new layer. The explanation given by Dr Fitch is simplicity itself. During fair weather the caterpillars frequently rest in numbers on the outside and stray individuals may be seen crawling over their resting com- panions, spinning as they go, and at the same time beginning a new layer of silk. Dr Fitch states that on damp or rainy days they remain in their nests, but during fair weather they usually feed for a time in the morning, again in the afternoon and once during the night. These habits are subject to considerable variation, being affected to a great extent by the weather. As the larvae approach maturity, they forsake the nests and wander singly in all directions, feeding on whatever they can. At this stage they will pupate upon the slightest provocation. More than once have I put a caterpillar of this species in a box, only to find a cocoon the next morning. The instinct that prompts them to wander at this time is undoubtedly a wise provision for their safety, for it insures their pupation in widely separated places and renders them less likely to be destroyed. Early in June the cocoons ofthis species are spun on the trunks of the trees, on the under side of fence rails, under the eaves of buildings and in many similar places promising shelter. An interesting deviation from the general habit the caterpillars have of each spinning a cocoon, is that recorded by Miss Allie C. Simonds, of Fayetteville, Ark., who reported that numbers of individuals spun large irregular cocoons in common, as many as seven or eight pupae being found crowded together _in one without any separating partitions (Jmsect life. 1895. 7:429). The caterpillars transform within the cocoons to brown pupae and Temain in this state for about three weeks, according to Fitch and Riley. Prof. Slingerland, as a result of certain trap lantern experiments, records taking the moths from June 17 to July 18, at Ithaca, N. Y., in 1889, the great majority being taken between June 22 and July 5. 182 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM In 1890, Dr Dyar has recorded taking the moths at electric lights in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., from June 14 to July 17, the larger number occur- ring between June 20 and July 2. During this period of flight the eggs are deposited in bands or belts around the smaller twigs, the number in a band ranging from 300 to 330 according to Dr Fitch. Food plants. The wild cherry, Prunus serotina, is undoubtedly the favorite food plant of the tent caterpillars, since the examples along the roadsides suffer more or less from year to year and are frequently defo- liated by this pest. The apple appears to rank next in the estimation of the caterpillars, judging from the severe attacks made upon it yearly. This insect feeds on a large number of plants, though severe injury is. usually confined to those named above, and closely related species. It has been reported by various authors upon the following: barberry, New Jersey tea (Ceanothus americanus), sugar maple, plum, peach, sev- eral species of cherry, rose, thorn (probably Crataegus), shad-bush, pear, apple, mountain ash, witch hazel, elm, oak (probably several species) several species of birch, willow and poplar. Some of these are undoubt- edly eaten only under exceptional circumstances, and others sustain serious injury occasionally. Dr C. M. Weed, of Durham, N. H., gives illustrations of a severe attack on a birch and an oak in a recent bulletin. Distribution. This insect appears to be generally distributed throughout the eastern United States, and extends north into Canada. Chsiocampa fragilis Stretch is given by Dr Dyar as the representative of C. americana from the Rocky mountains to the Sierras and from Canada to Mexico, and it in turn is represented in the Pacific northwest by C. pluvialis Dyar. Natural enemies. This species is attacked by a number of parasi- tic and predaceous insects and is also subject to a fungus disease, but in spite of these checks the caterpillars are frequently very abundant. Among the most important true parasites may be mentioned Ample pedalis Cres., a species which Dr Fernald has bred in great numbers from the cocoons. It was so abundant that he obtained only 25 moths from about two quarts of cocoons. Many examples of Aimpla conquisitor Say were reared from the pupae of this insect by Dr C. M. Weed. According to Dr Howard, the latter species is found from California to New Jersey and south to the Gulf of Mexico and has been recorded from Canada. He classes it as one of the most important parasites of the cotton-worm in the south, and as it preys on a number of injurious ; ‘J | ‘ q 4 ee TRS ~~ er , ee ee ee a ee ’ ; : ( REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 183 lepidopterous insects, it may well be regarded as a very beneficial form. Another insect belonging to the same genus, . annulipes Brullé, has been recorded as a parasite of this species, by Bruner. In addition to P. pedalis, Dr Fernald reared a few examples of TZheronia melano- cephala Brullé from cocoons. A variety of Apanteles congregatus, rufocoxalis Riley, was bred from the larvae by Dr Lintner. Dr Fitch reared from the cocoons a parasite to which he gave the name? of \. 4 ASSP we /] Li Pp | f , Y Y Fig. 8 pIMPLA CONQUISITOR: @, larva; 6, head of same; c, pupa; d, adult female — all enlarged. fter Howard: U. S. Dep’t agriculture, Division entomology. Tech. ser. no. 5). Cleonymus clisiocampae. Dr Howard states that Mr Ashmead has referred this species to the European Dzdbrachys boucheanus Ratz., which is not a primary parasite, as Dr Fitch supposed his species to be. Lelenomus clistocampae Riley, has also been reared from the eggs of this and another species of Ciisiocampa (Insect life. 1891. 4:123). But one parasitic fly, /rontina frenchit Williston, has been reared from the tent caterpillar, according to Coquillett. A number of predaceous insects attack the larvae. Several species of large ground beetles are said to prey on the caterpillars, among them being Calosoma scrutator Fabr. As others of the same genus attack Chsiocampa disstria Hiibn., it is probable that they would not discriminate between the larvae of these closely related forms. Owing to the extend- ed studies of Mr Kirkland, we know more fully the habits of the genus Podisus, several species of which attack the tent caterpillar. The fol- lowing have been observed preying on C. americana: Podisus placidus Uhler, P. modestus Dallas, P. serieventris Uhler, and Diplodus luridus 184 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Stal. As a rule, members of this genus are beneficial and should be protected, since they are mostly predaceous in habit. Professor Bruner states that Fodisus spinosus Dallas and Perilus claudus Say prey upon the tent caterpillar. Among the more efficient vertebrate enemies may be named the American toad, though its feeding on this species is practically limited to the relatively short period when the larvae are wandering in search of proper places for pupation. Mr Kirkland has found the remains of 37 full grown caterpillars in the stomach of one toad and from 15 to 20 in many others. The value of birds in keeping this and other pests under control is strikingly shown in an experiment conducted by Mr E. H. For- bush, ornithologist of the Massachusetts board ‘of agriculture. In a typical orchard in Medford, Mass., a little trouble was taken to attract the native birds, the nests of the English or house sparrow being destroyed. . The results were greatly in favor of protecting our indig- enous forms. In neighboring orchards it was evident that canker worms and tent caterpillars were very numerous, but in the orchard in question, the trees were injured seriously in only one or two instances, though no attempt was made to control the insects by spraying or other artificial means. ‘The following is a list of the birds observed feeding on. the tent caterpillar in that Medford orchard: Crow, Corvus americanus Aud.; chickadee, Farus atricapillus Linn.; oriole, Zeturus galbula Linn. ; red-eyed vireo, Vireo olvaceus Linn.; yellow-billed cuckoo, Coccyzus americanus Linn.; black-billed cuckoo, Coccyzus erythropthalmus Wils. ; chipping sparrow, Spzzella socialis Wils.; yellow warbler, Dendroica aestiva Gmel. This lst includes all the species observed feeding on the tent caterpillar by earlier writers. Preventive measures and remedies. It will not do to rely entirely on the good offices of native birds for keeping this or other in- sect pests under control, though they are undoubtedly of great value and richly repay any slight effort that may be made for the purpose of attracting them to orchards. Winter birds are induced to remain in the vicinity of orchards by hanging in the trees pieces of meat or partially picked bones, and will spend much time in searching out and devouring numerous insects or their eggs, relying on the meat only when conditions are unfavorable for obtaining insect food. Migratory birds may be induced to remain in larger numbers near orchards by providing them with suitable nesting places and materials, and by protecting them from cats and cruel boys. ‘Thickets in the vicinity will afford shelter for REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 185 certain species and if a few mulberry trees are set out their fruit wiil serve to protect the cherries as the birds are said to eat the mulberries by preference. Most of the preceding suggestions are taken from a very interesting and practical paper by Mr Forbush (see citation). His many years of experience and close observation of our birds entitle his writings to the highest respect. There is much that can be said in favor of protecting and encouraging our native birds and most farmers will find that a little effort along this line will be very profitable. In under- taking any such work, it will not do to judge entirely by the results obtained in one season. As this species breeds from year to year in large numbers on the wild cherry-trees along the roadsides, in fence corners and other uncultivated places, these trees should either be destroyed or else used as lures and heavily sprayed with poison early each spring in order to destroy the numerous caterpillars hatching from their abundant egg belts. It is prob- able that the destruction of the cherry-trees would be the wiser plan, for otherwise they would be too often neglected as is the case at present. If but a few wild cherry-trees were allowed to grow near an orchard and they were well sprayed with poison from year to year or the numerous egg belts removed, it is probable that the tent caterpillars would be found on the apple trees in comparatively small numbers. The exhaustive experiments, conducted by Dr Fernald, on the amount of paris green necessary to kill this species, show most conclusively that the caterpillars can be readily controlled by spraying with poison. The experiments prove that the larvae in any stage can be killed in two or three days with an application of one pound of paris green in from 300 to 400 gallons of water, and that even the extremely dilute mixture of one pound to rooo gallons is deadly in two or three weeks after applica- tion. While in practice it will be found best to use paris green at the rate of one pound to 200 or 300 gallons or less, the experiments show that this species is much more sensitive to arsenical poisons than is the case with the gypsy moth, /orthetria dispar Linn., the spring canker worm, faleacrita vernata Peck, and some other injurious species. In cases where it is desirable to spray the trees early in the spring for the pur- pose of controlling other insects, the same application should be entirely effective in preventing injury by tent caterpillars. If for some reason or other, it is not desirable to spray at the proper time to kill this species, recourse may be had either to gathering the egg belts in the winter or early spring and destroying them, or to the destruc- tion of the young when assembled in their recently formed nests. The 186 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM collecting of the eggs is best done when the trees are leafless and the sky clear or covered with whitish clouds. A little experience will enable one to detect the egg belts very readily. There are several methods of destroying the young caterpillars in their nests. The most effective way is by crushing them with the hands, mittens may be worn if preferred, as suggested by Dr Fitch. If the nests are attended to early in the season, the operation is quickly and thoroughly done, as most of them are within reach of a short ladder. ‘The nests may be torn out with a brush, a dry mullen stalk or other arrangement and their occupants crushed on_the ground. This is not so thorough as crushing the caterpillars while on the tree. Another method is burning the nests by the use of rags soaked in kerosene and tied to a pole or other form of a torch. When the flames are brought under the nests, the occupants escape so far as possible by . dropping. It 1s seldom that every caterpillar on the tree is destroyed by this means. Not only do a number escape, but in many cases the trees © ’ suffer severe injury, the entire branch beyond the nest being killed by the fire. It would be better to cut off the branches bearing nests, as is done by some, and then destroy the caterpillars either by fire or by crushing them. Bibliography Fabricius, J. C.

" a _a.s” = —— ae Wee es eS REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 191 CLISIOCAMPA DISSTRIA Hiibn. Forest tent caterpillar Ord. Lepidoptera: Fam. Lasiocampidae This species is closely allied to the preceding in structure and habits, as might be inferred from the similarity of their names, and like its con- gener is frequently very destructive. From the fact that this insect is confined largely to the forests, as indicated by its common name and the scientific one bestowed by Harris, its operations are more rarely brought to notice, and then only when it has committed extensive ravages. Injuries the past two years in New York state. The ravages of this insect in New York state this year and last have been unprece- dented in the annals of our state. In fact, there appears to be no record of injury earlier than 1857, when it was reported to Dr Riley as quite destructive in certain parts of western New York. 10 years later Peter Ferris (see citation) reported that this insect had been troublesome in western New York for 12 years or more. The next serious outbreak was brought to the attention of Dr Lintner in 1889 from Kingsbury, Wash- ington county, N. Y., where about 10 acres were defoliated. These dep- redations, however, sink into insignificance compared with those reported to Dr Lintner last year and the more wide spread injuries brought to my notice the present season. In 1897 this species was reported by Prof. John Mickleborough as very destructive to maples and other forest trees at Jewett, Greene county. At Andes, Delaware county, its ravages were complained of by Barton Jackson. ‘The most serious injuries reported that year were in the vicinity of Margaretville, in the same county. The following excerpts from a report made by Henry B. Ingram, of Kingston, N. Y., will give an idea of their abundance and the extensive depreda- tions committed: The cocoons of this insect in the infested district fairly whitened the places where they were attached. Under the eaves of buildings, under the lower edge of every clapboard on buildings, in piles of brush, under every loose stone, piece of bark or board, in the crevices of the bark on trees and every place where a worm could hide and undergo its transfor- mations—all these were found crowded with cocoons. The part of Delaware county visited by me on Thursday, July 8, 1897, was Arkville and Margaretville along the Ulster and Delaware railroad. The first place I visited was what is known as Ely Swart’s sugar bush, one mile and a half east of Margaretville village. This sugar orchard, or rather, sugar maple forest, comprises about 60 acres. Then the maple trees continue in a dense forest through other farms up and over the mountains for several miles. It is about halfa mile wide, and begins in the valley near a long siding half a mile from Arkville, ' 192 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM where the Ulster and Delaware railroad sometimes side-track freight trains. The caterpillars began their depredations at this railway siding and swept up the hill over an area a mile and a half long by half a mile wide, taking hard maple, apple, pear, plum, beech, birch, poplar and other trees in their destructive course. The nut trees they did not attack and strange to say, they left every soft maple in their track untouched. The caterpillars were also operating in the village on the shade trees, and the garden fruit trees, but were not plentiful enough to do much damage or cause much comment. At Clarks Factory, Delaware county, Mr H. O. Van Benscoten owns an extensive sugar orchard of over one hundred acres. It has been stripped of its foliage till not one leaf remains. ‘The maple forests, at Andes, Grand Gorge, Bush Ridge, and Fleischmanns, Delaware county, Prattsville and other points in Greene county have also been stripped of foliage. Wherever the caterpillars have appeared they have defoliated the apple and fruit orchards. The complete and extensive injury is well shown in plates 1-4, which were taken by Mr Ingram. This year Mr R. G. Smith roped that 125 acres covered with maples were defoliated at Russell, St Lawrence county. Severe ravages by this species were reported from Lewis county, many timber lots appearing as though fire had run through them, as it was put by a corres- pondent of the weather bureau. At.Trenton Falls, Oneida county, the caterpillars were very numerous in the woods and some trees were nearly defoliated. Several observers reported serious injuries by this insect in Otsego county, Westford, Decatur and Worcester being localities specially mentioned by Mr O. Q. Flint, of Athens, N. Y. A report came to me that the forests were stripped by this species in Exeter, and Mr C: F. Wheelock, head inspector of the University, informed me that he had observed considerable injury to forest trees in the same county. Its ravages were noted in Delaware county by Mr Flint at Roxbury and Stamford. Many trees were defoliated in Greene county, its operations in Lexington and Halcott coming under the observation of Mr Flint and those at Tannersville being reported by Miss K. E. Turnbull. The abundance and destructiveness of this insect at Glens Falls, Warren county, was brought to my attention early in the season by Mr C. L. Williams. At Lake George many of the trees on the islands were defoliated by this insect, the Canoe islands appearing as though swept by fire, according to Mrs J. R. Gilmore. Severe injuries were also reported from Vermont both last year and the present season. That the actual depredator in cases cited above was always this species, could not be determined in every instance by examination of the caterpillars, though an effort was made to secure examples whenever practicable, REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 193 but it is believed that in every case the evidence justified the identifica- tion. In all the localities mentioned above, a number of trees were defoliated, usually oaks and maples, and in most of these the injured tracts could be estimated by acres, in some cases by hundreds of acres. There is certainly ample evidence to justify the conclusion that the forest tent caterpillar has caused a large amount of damage in New York state last year and this, and that the present season the ravages have been more general than in 1897, though in the former year they may have been more severe in certain localities. Extensive depredations in other localities. This insect has been extremely injurious in a number of ‘other states, in some instances defoliating hundreds of square miles. One of the earliest accounts is the record of Abbot, whom Dr Riley quotes, stating that it ‘is sometimes so plentiful in Virginia as to strip the oak-trees bare.’ In his 3d report (see citation), Dr Riley credits this species with completely stripping the ‘over-cup timber’ on the overflow bottoms near Des Arc, Ark., and records extensive injuries by it in many parts of Missouri. In the 8th Report on the insects of Missouri, it is stated that this species stripped oak forests over hundreds of square miles in the southern states, and that in the vicinity of Memphis, in 1862, the larvae were so abundant as to frequently stop trains going in and out of the city. In 1889 another instance of trains being stopped was brought to the notice of the Divi- sion of entomology, U. 5. Department of agriculture (/usect life. 1889. 2:58). This time the trouble was in Maine and was accompanied by serious injury to forests and orchards. Two years later trains were stopped on the Carolina central railroad near Lumberton (Jvsect Life. 1891. 3:477). This hindrance to travel was accompanied by the defolia- tion of many trees over a large area. This species was excessively injurious in the vicinity of London, Ont., in 1877, as recorded by Wiliam Saunders in the following words: ‘There were millions upon millions of them, and so enormous were their numbers and so persistent their attacks, that after fighting them bravely for a week or two, many gave up the contest in despair, weary of the slaughter. Many an orchard was rendered bare and leafless and in some instances the woods were so void of foliage as to remind one of winter.’ In southern [Illinois this insect ‘made a frightful inroad upon the apple orchard, absolutely defolia- ting every tree in large districts in 1883’ (Forbes, see citation). Last year the caterpillars committed very extensive ravages along the Ottawa river, stripping the aspen groves of every leaf and seriously Injuring ‘other trees (Ottawa naturalist, 1898. 12:13). 194 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Description. This insect can be distinguished from the preceding by the absence of the conspicuous white tents or nests. ‘The forest tent caterpillars spin a web but it is much thinner than in the _ case of the species commonly occurring on apple-trees, and usually | escapes observation on account of its being attached to the side of a limb, instead of stretched between diverging branches. Fig. 9 Forest tent caterpillar: a, cluster of eggs; d, female; c, top view of an egg; d, side view of sev- eral eggs (after Riley). Fig. 10 Larva (after Riley). The egg belts are similar to those of the preceding species, except that the ends terminate abruptly, all the eggs standing upright (fig. 9). Each mass is composed of about 400 eggs, the number ranging from 380 to 416, according to Dr Riley. The young caterpillars are not often noticed. The recently hatched larvae have been characterized as ‘ black with pale hairs and are always found either huddled together or traveling in file along the silken paths which they form when in search of food.’ After feeding for a time they become ‘paler or of a light yellowish brown, with the extremities rather darker than the middle of the body, with the warts which give rise to the hairs quite distinct, and a conspicuous dark inter- rupted line each side of the back’ (Riley). After the second molt the characteristic row of spots along the back appears (fig. 10) and enables one to readily distinguish between them and the apple-tree tent caterpil- lars. As the larvae increase in size and undergo successive molts, the colors become brighter and more distinct. ‘The cocoon is very similar to that of C. americana. The moth is smaller, lighter colored and may be distinguished from that of the apple-tree tent caterpillar by the oblique bands across the fore wings being darker instead of lighter than the ground color. > ged a ’ REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 195 Life history and habits. The life history and habits of this species are very similar to those of the preceding form. ‘The winter is passed by the fully developed larvae in the egg, as stated by several writers. With the appearance of the first warm weather, the caterpillars emerge and if no food is at hand, await the appearance of the leaves. While small . they remain together, but as they approach maturity the individuals scat- ter in much the same way as the apple-tree tent caterpillars, though nearly full grown larvae, specially when preparing to molt, may be seen in large clusters covering a portion of the trunk as do those of the gypsy moth, Porthetria dispar Linn. Such an assemblage is really a pretty sight if one has an eye for the beautiful in nature. The larvae do not become full-grown till somewhat later than the apple-tree tent caterpillars. As a general rule they wander everywhere the first part of June and disap- pear by the middle of the month, though I have observed numbers feeding the latter part of June and have seen them in the early part of July. The cocoons resemble those of C. americana very closely, and are found in similar places, except that the habits of this species necessitate the pupation of the larger proportion in forests. The duration of the pupa state is about two weeks. The moths appear the latter part of June and during July. Dr Dyar records taking this species at electric lights in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., in 1890, from June 20 to August 4, the adults being most abundant July 2 and 9g. Distribution. The numerous records of serious injury by this insect in the eastern United States and Canada. indicate that it is widely and generally distributed. It has been reported from Mississippi north into Canada and from Maine westward to California. Dr Dyar states (see citation) that C. dsstvia extends throughout the range of C. americana and C. pluvialis and also into California. Food plants. Like the apple-tree tent caterpillar, this species can subsist on a large variety of plants. Its favorite species of oak in the southern states, as stated by Dr Riley, are those belonging to the same group as the black oak. In New York and adjoining states this insect is reported more frequently as defoliating the sugar maple than any other tree. This injury may be owing to the fact that large sugar orchards afford the most favorable conditions for the caterpillars in the north, and as the maples are of greater value than forest trees, complaints of attack are more frequent. The caterpillars have been reported by various writers as feeding upon the following trees and shrubs: linden, maples, locust, peach, plum, cherry, rose, strawberry, apple, sweet gum (Liguzdambar 196 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM styracifiua), dog wood, ‘black gum,’ sour gum (JVyssa sy/vatica), ash, elm black walnut, hickory, walnut, oak, black oak, post oak, white birch, gray birch, willow and poplar. Natural enemies. On account of this insect’s depredations being confined mostly to the woods, we must depend largely upon its natural enemies to keep it in check. In 1879, William Saunders records the destruction by a fungus disease of large numbers of larvae belonging to this species. Professor Forbes, state entomologist of Illinois, found a great many of these larvae dead in the southern part of that state. So fatal was the disease that from half to three fourths of the cocoons never yielded the imago. The next year, though enough larvae hatched to do considerable damage, many died when they were little over half an inch long and in some cases whole colonies were killed. Professor Forbes has identified this disease as muscardine, and though so deadly to the larvae, no attempt seems to have been made to cultivate and dis- seminate the fungus. Very few true parasites have been bred from this insect. Dr Riley records the rearing of Zimueria fugitiva Say and William Saunders states that Pimpla pedalis Cres. preys on this species. Simpla conguisttor Say was reared from several pupae collected in Delaware county last year, the proportion of the cocoons parasitized indicated that it was very valuable in controlling this caterpillar. The following dipterous parasites have been reported by Mr Coquillett (see citation): Huphorocera clari- pennis Macq., Frontina frenchit W il., and Zachina mella Walk. A number of predaceous insects prey upon the caterpillars. One of great value is Calosoma scrutator Fabr., a species which Dr Riley characterized as most efficient. The beautiful and equally ferocious Calosoma cahdum Fabr., is another valuable enemy, as stated by William Saunders. Mr Burgess (see citation) records that Calosoma wilcoxi LeC. fed readily in confinement upon the larvae of this insect. Two predaceous hemip- terons, Podisus plactdus Uhler and P. serieventris Uhler are also known to feed upon the caterpillars (Kirkland, see citation). A mite, ? Zrombidium sp., was discovered by William Saunders destroying many clusters of eggs. The vertebrate enemies of this species are presumably as numerous, if not more, than those of the apple-tree tent caterpillar. William Saunders cites an instance in which a black-billed cuckoo, Coccygus erythropthalmus Wils., was brought to him with its crop filled with the caterpillars. It is quite probable that many other birds feed upon this insect, possibly more than on the apple-tree tent caterpillar, but no such records have come to my notice. The common toad has been recorded by Mr Kirkland as REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 197 feeding on this species, though from this batrachian being confined to the ground and occurring more abundantly in cultivated fields, it is hardly probably that as a rule it devours many of the caterpillars. Remedies and preventives. When this species appears in orchards or attacks a few cherished trees on the lawn or elsewhere, most of the methods recommended for the apple-tree tent caterpillar can be employed against it successfully. The difficulty is not so much in controlling this insect in the fruit orchard and on highly valued trees, as in. the forests. The ravages in the wood lands and the extensive sugar orchards can rarely be successfully met by the foregoing methods. In these localities the expense attendant upon the collection of the egg belts or spraying the trees with poison would be prohibitive in most instances. Ina general way, recourse must be had to preventive measures. Our native insectivorous birds should be protected from hunters and encouraged in every possible manner. Their efficient services alone should do much to abate the nuisance. The insect enemies of this species should be pre- served from destruction whenever possible. In case of very severe out- breaks, such as have occurred this year and last, it may be found advisable to burn over the defoliated areas just after the caterpillars have pupated, and before the moths emerge, provided there is not enough inflammable matter on the surface to produce a fire that would seriously injure the trees. The burning would have to be conducted with caution, but wherever practicable, it would result in the destruction of many insects. Bibliography Hubner, Jacob.

Noctuidae The larva of this species has gained for itself a very unsavory reputa- tion among agricultuiists on account of its numerous depredations on various garden crops, it being particularly fond of cabbage and related plants, sometimes proving very destructive to them. The present season its previous records appear to be outdone by its occurrence in large numbers on timothy hay put into the barn the previous day. Remarkable demonstration. The following inquiry was received from a correspondent of the Country gentleman: I have just finished cutting a 20-acre lot of timothy hay, and put it in the barn yesterday. This morning on going into the barn we found the hay literally covered with caterpillars, say from 1$ to 1% in. long, of a.very bright yellow color, with a black stripe from head to tail; head red. Can you tell me what they are? Would youusethe hay? We did not see them in the field, but the barn is alive with them. Alexandria Bay, N. Y. W.. Cs B. The following reply to the question in regard to the value of the hay for feeding purposes was made: It is most probable that the caterpillars observed had been feeding on the grass and were accidentally taken up with the hay. Their appearance in such large numbers on the mow indicates that the majority will work their way out and leave the hay, since it is probably too hard and dry to be acceptable provender. So lony as the hay retains its normal sweet odor, even though a dead caterpillar be seen here and there, it would be perfectly safe to feed out; but if the dead bodies are numerous enough to contaminate it, and impart a foul odor, it would be safer to use it for some other purpose. In a subsequent letter with the examples requested, in order that the identity of the species might be established, Mr Browning stated that last year these larvae entirely destroyed his crop of oats on the 20 acres above mentioned, and that so far as his observation went, they were con- fined entirely to that one field. While it may be very proper to question whether it was the larvae of Wamestra picta that caused this enormous damage to the oats, still the weight of evidence indicates that this species 202 . NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM was the depredator. The well known, almost omnivorous habits of the larvae and their abundance at the present season in the same field throw a ‘very strong suspicion on these caterpillars. Description. The eggs are deposited in patches on the under sur- face of the leaves, according to Prof. Davis. He also states that a moth usually lays from 125 to 150 eggs, though he obtained one cluster of 452. The young larvae probably vary somewhat in appearance. Dr Packard describes them as pale greenish, with four dark stripes on each side. Dr Riley states that at first they are almost black, though they soon become pale and green, while Prof. Davis found them to be ‘hairy, speckled, white caterpillars, with a black head and black crescent on the thorax.’ After the first molt, the appearance of the larvae is much the saine as when matured, according to several writers. In the earlier stages, the black dorsal stripe is divided by a median white line and the proportionate amount of black is much less than when the larvae are nearly mature. The brilliantly colored larva is from 13 to 2 inches va 7 Coratheduip Fig. 11 MAMESTRA PICTA: a, larva; 6, moth (after Riley). long when full grown, and may then be recognized by its broad, jet-black dorsal stripe. The two bright yellow stripes on each side are separated by a broader black area, which is broken by numerous transverse, irregular, white lines (fig. 11 and pl. 5). In Dr Lintner’s detailed descrip- tion of this larva (see citation), le compares the broken, black stripe to a series of letters: IVNW. Beneath the lower yellow line there is more or less black, broken by irregular white lines, somewhat as in the lateral black stripe above. The head and legs are brick red. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 203 The pupa has been described by Dr Riley as about ‘# of an inch long, deep, shiny brown, and thickly punctate, except on the posterior border of the joints, and specially on those three immediately below the wing sheaths, where it is reddish and not polished ; it terminates in a blunt point ornamented with two thorns.’ Pupation occurs underground, in a rude earthen cell, which is lined with particles of soil interwoven with silken threads. The front wings of the moth are of a beautiful, rich purple-brown, blending with a delicate lighter shade of brown in the middle. The ordinary spots in the middle of the wing, with a third oval spot, more or less distinctly marked behind the round one, are edged and traversed by white lines so as to appear like delicate net work; a transverse, zig-zag, white line, like a sprawling W, is also more or less visible near the outer edge, on which edge there is a series of white specks ; a’few white atoms are also sprinkled in other places on the wing. The hind wings are white, faintly edged with brown on the upper and outer edges. ‘The head and thorax are of the same color as the front wings, and the body has a more grayish cast (Riley). Life history. The young larvae may be found in clusters on their food plants. As they increase in size, they disperse, till when full grown they are found singly here and there. When disturbed, they curl up and drop to the ground as do many cut-worms. Jn confinement they have been observed to eat with great rapidity, resting frequently from their feeding. ‘The first brood of larvae mature in this latitude the last of June or in July. Those received from Alexandria Bay, July 19, were about full grown, while Dr Lintner records pupation of some reared examples on the 27th of June. The moths from these pupae emerged August 11 to 18, and deposited eggs, the earliest of which hatched August .20. Thus it will be seen that there are two broods in this state. Adults emerging from pupae the latter part of May, lay eggs which pro- duce the brood of larvae usually destructive. The moths of the second generation fly in August, the larvae from their eggs attaining full growth in September or October and wintering as pupae. Like cabbage, one of its favorite food plants, the larva can withstand a considerable degree of cold, as recorded by Walsh. Food plants. The larvae of this species have been previously recorded as feeding upon the following plants by various writers: Cab- bage, cauliflower, turnip, rutabagas, mignonette, sweet pea, orange, clover, beaa, pea, apple, currant, carrot, celery, white berry or snowberry (Symphoricarpus racemosus), honeysuckle, burdock, aster, cranberry, 204 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM potato, beet, spinach, Jamb’s quarters (Chenopodium album), smartweed, buckwheat, willow, spruce, asparagus and corn. ) Though the insect is not abundant on all the plants mentioned above, and probably feeds on certain of them only under exceptional condi- tions, yet the list is so extended, including 29 species or varieties and representing 18 natural orders, that it is very ditficult to say what the caterpillars will not attack. It is probable that farther study would show that the larvae feed on a number of other grasses besides those _ recorded at the beginning of this notice. Distribution. This insect appears, from the record of its injuries, to be widely and generally distributed over the United States and the southern part of Canada. Its depredations have been reported from most of the eastern states from Massachusetts to Florida, in many of the central and western states, and in southern California and the state of Washington. Natural enemies. Several parasites have been reared from this insect. Ophion pureatum Say has been bred from this species by Mr Caulfield. As this parasite is one which has been found attacking the army worm, Leucania unipuncta Haw., in numbers, it is of importance to know that it also preys on this species. Lzmneria annulipes Cres. has been reared from this Mamestra (/msect life. 1890. 3:17). Another parasite which has been bred by several observers, is AZicroplitis mamestrae Weed. It has the peculiar habit of attaching its brown, ribbed cocoons between the anal prolegs of its victim. TZelenomus helothidis Ashm. has been reared from the eggs of this insect by Prof. Davis, who found that it destroyed from two thirds to three fourths of most clusters. Dr James Fletcher has reared two egg parasites,a Z7vichogvamma and another black Proctotrypid, in large numbers. Prof. Davis also records an attack on the eggs of this species by two insects. The adult of Megilla maculata DeGeer devours the eggs, shell and all, while the tarnished plant bug (probably Zygus pratensis Linn.) sucks out the contents and leaves the shell nearly entire. The common toad is reported by Mr Kirkland as feeding on the caterpillars. Remedies. The gregarious habits of the young caterpillars render their destruction by hand picking comparatively easy. They can be killed by spraying with paris green and water, at the rate of one pound to 150 or 200 gallons. In cases where it is undesirable to poison their food plants, the caterpillars can be controlled by the use of fresh pyreth- rum, hellebore or kerosene emulsion.

Noctuidae The extensive defoliation of soft maples by the larvae of this species at Schenectady and presumably at other places in the state, is another instance of how destructive comparatively unknown species may become, provided conditions are favorable. Recent injuries. The numerous soft maples at Schenectady were practically stripped of their foliage by hordes of light green caterpillars. On June 20, many were to be seen on the affected trees, not infrequently 50 to 100 on asingletrunk. On the sidewalks, along the curbing and in the roadway, larvae were crawling hither and thither. Even were one a Determined by Drs H. G. Dyarand J, B. Smith. 208 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM deprived of sight, the peculiar odor arising from the thousands of larvae gave ample evidence of their presence, and the abundance of the cater- pillars called to mind, forcibly, the numerous fields swarming with army worms in 1896. At Albany, only 17 miles distant, there was no sign or injury to the soft maples. A search at that time was not rewarded by a single caterpillar. As far west as Herkimer, on the Mohawk river, on the Raquette river in St Lawrence county, and in Schoharie county, many soft maples were defoliated. In some cases this was probably the work of Xylina larvae, though the forest tent caterpillar, C/szocampa dis- stria Hiibn., was abundant and may have caused the mischief. In Mas- sachusetts a green larva was quite destructive to soft maples, as stated by Mr R. H. Cooley. This depredator may be the same species that proved so destructive in New York. Ina letter referring the larvae to Xylina, Dr Dyar states that in 1897 they were quite common on maples at Bellport, L. I., but less abundant, though plenty, the present season. Comparatively unknown. An examination of the literature relat- ing to this insect shows that it is comparatively unknown to economic entomology. specially as a defoliator of maple or other trees, though Dr Riley, in his 3d report on the insects of Missouri, states that for several years he had known the larvae to be common on apple, poplar, hickory and some other trees, the leaves of which they devour. This species, in conjunction with Xylina laticinerea Grote and X. grote Riley, was reported in 1896 by Prof. Slingerland of the Cornell agricultural experiment station, as quite 1: jurious to fruits in the state, more speci- ally in the western part. Extensive injuries to apples in Orleans county, N. Y., were also reported to Dr Howard the same year. Pre- vious to that, there had been but one record of injuries in New York by this species and that was in 1877. In other states there have been, a few instances of these insects attacking fruits. In 1870, Dr Riley received several complaints of injury by the larvae of this insect to peaches and apples. [In 1888, it was somewhat injurious to apples and a bulletin by Prof. F. H. Hillman, of the Nevada agricultural ex- periment station, records serious injuries in 18g0 to roses by the same insect, Description. The larvae of this species are stout, smooth, light green, cutworin-like caterpillars measuring from 1 to 13 inches im length when full grown. The head is pale yeilowish green. There is a rather broad yellowish white or white dorsal stripe along the body, a narrower white sub-dorsal stripe, a broken, faint lateral stripe of the same color and an irregular white stigmatal stripe. The tubercles are rather large “y . REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 209 and white, and the skin is minutely spotted with the same color. Prof. Slingerland (see citation) states that in the larvae of X. gvofez both edges of the stigmatal stripe are well defined, while in those of X. anten- mata the upper edge is much broken or indented. He finds that the sub-dorsal stripe is more continuous in the latter, it being composed of three or four irregular spots on each segment in X. gvotez. He sepa- rates the larvae of X. daticinerea from those of X. antennata by the posi- tion of the stigmatal stripe, which is just above the spiracles, except the one at each extremity, in the former species, while in the latter it is mostly below the spiracles. Fig. 12 XYLINA ANTENNATA (original).’ 4 The moth (fig. 12) is ashy gray with indistinct, rather variable markings. Sometimes it resembles X. /aticinerea so closely that only an authority on the family can separate the species. So close is the resemblance between these forms, that at first the Jarvae depredating on the maples were referred by Dr Dyarto X. grofec and X. laticinerea, the determina- tion being based on examples named by Dr Smith some years ago. The subsequent studies of the latter have somewhat modified his views as to the limitation of these species, and have Jed to a renaming of those at the U.S. National Museum. These forms are undoubtedly very close to each other, though Prof.. Slingerland has found differences in the male genitalia of X.antennata and X. grotet. Definition of the species. In opposition to this view, Dr Riley regarded the above-named forms as but varieties of the species under discussion. Writing of this family in 1871, he states that great variability is char- acteristic of these moths, that only the more strikingly marked should be described, and adds that no doubt many of the so-called species will turn out to be but varieties. In a communication from Prof. G. H. Hudson of the State normal school at Plattsburg, N. Y., he writes: ‘After some years of trial and with over 800 specimens for comparison, I have come to the conclusion that Xy/ina antennata, X. laticinerea and 210 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM X. grotei are one and the same species.’ Differences in the time of flight have been observed by Prof. Hudson in the case of closely related species, as, for example, Zyfrepia virgo Linn. and L£yprepia parthenice Kirby, their periods being well separated except for a few stragglers. The same he found true in the case of Feltia herils Grote and Feltia subgothica Haw., but not so with the species under dis- cussion. During several years of collecting, Prof. Hudson has taken these moths (X. antennata, X. laticinerea and X. grotet) from Sep. 25 into early November, they being most abundant from the last of Septem- ber throughout October, and from March 2 to May 2, occurring in the spring in greatest numbers from about March 20 to April13. He also writes: ‘I have taken specimens at sugar while the grass and pools of shallow water were freezing at my feet. The moths probably kept in the warmer upper layers. J have taken them when the temperature 6 feet from the ground was but 3 degrees Centigrade but never belowthis. On one of these occasions, a very light snow was falling, yet I found a single specimen feeding at sugar at 6.30 p.m. This was on April 2, 1889.’ Life history. Usually the larvae are not observed till May or June. They complete their growth by the middle of the latter month, enter the ground and pupate an inchor more below the surface. They remain in the quiescent stage till September, when most of them emerge. ‘Though some hibernate as pupae, the majority pass the winter as adults. It has been stated that in the south, the eggs are deposited on the under sur- face of the leaves. No record of the oviposition in the north has been made. Food habits. Though comparatively little is known about the food habits of this species, it is probably a somewhat general feeder. Dr Riley records attacks by the larvae of X. antennatz on apples, peaches, oak galls, hickory leaves and those of other forest trees. Their feeding upon rose buds and maple foliage has already been-mentioned. The extensive defoliation of the soft maples would indicate, however, that the species becomes abundant only when climatic and other conditions favor its rapid development upon some favorite food plant like the soft ‘~ maple. In his bulletin, Prof. Slingerland adds peas, plums, currants and quinces to the list of fruits injured and states that one grower had to watch the buds on grafted pears to prevent their being destroyed. Farther observations may greatly extend the list of known food plants. Natural enemies. Two hymenoptera, JZesochorus agilis Cres. and Meteorus hyphantriae Riley, were reared from X. /aticinerea by Prof. Sling- erland. They would probably attack X. azéennata with equal readiness. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 211 The latter parasite is a very efficient enemy of the fall web worm, fiyphantria cunea Drury. In addition to these, I have reared examples of the red-tailed tachina fly, Winthemia 4-pustulata Fabr., a species which has frequently rendered most valuable aid in controlling the army worm, Leucania unipuncta Haw. Remedies. In most cases the parasites and the native birds will keep this species under control. The outbreak chronicled in the pre- ceding pages is out of the usual order and may not occur again for years. In such event, resort may be had to spraying the infested trees with the arsenites. If the application is made before the caterpillars are more than half grown, serious injury to the trees may be averted. If the spraying is impracticable, many of the descending caterpillars can be killed by inclosing the trunks of the infested trees with a low over- hanging barricade ard then treating the collected larvae with hot water, kerosene emulsion or other contact insecticide. Small trees can be pro- “tected by jarring the caterpillars from them, and if sticky bands are placed around the trunk no larvae can ascend to continue their destructive work. In fruit orchards, as pointed out by Prof. Slingerland, spraying before the fruit appears or jarring are about the only measures that can be reijied upon in combating these pests.

LECANIUM TULIPIFERAE Cook Tulip-tree scale Ord. Hemiptera: Subord. Homoptera: Fam. Coccidae The tulip-tree is commonly unaffected by insects, but in this large species of Zecanium it finds an enemy that occasionally causes consider- able injury. Several twigs from a tulip-tree, showing a very bad condi- tion of affairs (fig. 13), were received on October 11, from Mr Alfred Pell, of Highland Falls, N. Y., with an inquiry as to the nature of the attack. ‘The insects were so crowded on portions of the bark, that the old scales were huddled together and badly deformed. Under a lens it was seen that thousands of young had established themselves in the immediate vicinity of their parents, almost covering the bark in many places (fig. 14), while a few occurred along the veins of the leaves. The young were still issuing from the parents, as a number of paler indivi- duals were to be seen crawling over the twigs. Branches of Magnolia Soulangeana badly infested by this species have also been received recently from Fishkill-on-the-Hudson. Earlier injuries by this species. In 1878 this scale insect was mentioned by Prof. Cook as one that frequently destroys tulip-trees in a Referred to LZ. ¢i/zae Fitch by some authors. 214 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Michigan. He states it was so abundant in 1870 on the college grounds at Lansing, Mich., that some of the trees were killed outright and others much injured. In the Aural Wew Yorker of May 10, 1890, a more - ~ ——— ae —_- ee iae a 3 ee a nn ee — = . Fig. 13 LECANIUM TULIPIFERAE (original). serious outbreak of this species is recorded at River Edge, Bergen county, N. J. Three years before, the tulip-trees in that vicinity were attacked by this scale insect,'and at the time the notice was written, not only had trees in front yards been rendered worthless, but the lower branches of thuse growing wild had been killed. Serious injuries to tulip- trees in 1896 at Hartford, Ct., have been reported by Dr Sturgis,.of the Connecticut agricultural experiment station, and Dr J. B. Smith, of the New Jersey agricultural experiment station, the same year observed a serious attack by this insect in his state. Description. The adult females are among the largest of those belonging to the genus. Some received measured ; inch in diameter. The scale is light brown, mottled with dark brown, and very con- vex. The under surface is concave, and in the examples before me, there are two pairs of ventral, transverse, white lines composed of short cottony filaments, one on each side near the middle and the oblis que pair nearer one extremity, probably the anterior. Both are inter; rupted in the middle. The young at this time (October) range in color from a light brown to almost black. The abdominal segments ‘are sharply defined, the caudal extremity is notched, and from the tips of the last segment there extends a pair of delicate flaments. The young have a general resemblance to tiny trilobites. : Life history. No signs of eggs were to be seen, though Prof. Cook describes them as small, yellow and oval. On examining the adults, a ——. * REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 215 number of young were found underneath. Apparently the species is viviparous in this latitude, as recorded of it farther south by Dr Riley. ‘In Florida all stages have been observed during the winter and it hiber- Fig.14 Young of LECANIUM TULIPIFERAE, much enlarged (original), nates as larvae at Washington, D. C., according to Dr Riley. The num- erous young on the branches and those still issuing would indicate that the larvae must hibernate in this stage. The only observed difference in ‘ October between those which had issued some time before and those emerging, was in the color. The older ones still retained the larval form, but they had turned black, were closely applied to the bark and attached by a slender thread. In this condition they were apparently ready for hibernation, since upon being disturbed there was no effort to move off, as in the case of younger individuals. . In this latitude there is probably but one annual generation, as there is little chance that young would be produced earlier here than in Mich- igan. Prof. Cook states that they appear late in August. This insect produces a large amount of honey dew, which has a nauseating odor. It has also been observed on clover by Prof. Cook. A parasite, Coccophagus flavoscutellum Ashm., has been reared from this scale insect (Howard, see citation). ’ Remedies. In case of a bad infestation, it would be well to scrape all the old insects from the branches in the autumn, and then treat the infested limbs ‘with either whale oil soap or kerosene emulsion. If this is undertaken before many young have emerged, the trees should be nearly freed from the pest. 216 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Bibliography Cook, A. J.

Lepismidae The so-called bristle-tail, fish-moth, silver-fish, etc., Lepzsma saccharina Linn., is a rather common insect about houses, though it is rarely seen. The work of this insect and the allied Lepisma domestica Packard is often seen among books and-papers that have been allowed to remain undis- turbed for a number of years. These insects have a liking for paper, specially the heavier grades, starch, paste, etc. They have even been ea or 2 eg ae ee oe a> —— ae ea tae ae Pay ee 4 — REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 217 _ known to cause the wall paper in a house to scale off by feeding on the starch paste. In museums they are frequently troublesome on account of their habit of eating away the surface of the labels. In one case coming under my observation at Fort Plain,.N. Y., the labels were so badly eaten as to be illegible in a number of instances, and in one or two cases the fragments dropped from the blocks to which they had been tacked. These insects even worked their way into wooden boxes containing microscopic preparations and attacked the labels gummed on the glass slips. Another instance of their destructiveness is shown in the accompanying reproduction from a photograph of a senate bill, which had been undisturbed in the office for about 16 years (fig. 15). It is most probable the work of JLefisma domestica, as it has subsequently been taken in the office. Both of these species Fig. 15 — Work of Lepisma (original). are small and shun the light, running very rapidly to a place of conceal- ment on the slightest alarm. They are slender, silvery gray, wingless insects, belonging to the lowest order, Thysanura. Their long, fragile antennae and delicate anal filaments render it very difficult to capture a specimen unbroken. Lefisma domestica is represented very much en- 218 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM larged in the accompanying figure. ‘This insect is found so generally dis- tributed over houses that it is difficult to use insecticides against it successfully.

Araneida: Fam. Theraphosidae Though not of economic importance and a native of the southern states, this spider has excited so much popular interest that it is deemed worthy of a brief notice. This large female tarantula, a gift to the division by Dr J. M. Bigelow of Albany, came into my custody last January. For the preced- ing two years, she had been kept as a pet by her owner, he having secured her from a dealer in bananas and other fruits. At the time the spider came into the doctor’s possession, she was nearly half grown, About the latter part of 1896, she molted or cast her old skin, which is in the state collection. Habits. Though this and related species are said to prey upon insects and other small creatures, this specimen attacked none of the cockroaches and other forms put into her cage or manifested any interest in them during the early part of the year. Meat placed in her cage was apparently untouched. A banana.skin excited some attention, but there were no signs of her feeding upon it. Apparently, she had taken only large quantities of water during the first half of the year, though much that was put into her cage must have evaporated. Sometime after molt- ing, she devoured a large piece of fresh meat with great eagerness and subsequently has taken it readily every few days. Molting. On July 21, the tarantula shed its skin for the second time. since it has been in captivity. Those familiar with insects, spiders and related creatures, are aware that they are incased in a hard, more or less unyielding integument. Increase of size is permissible only when the old skin is shed and one that has been newly formed beneath expands to the requisite degree. ‘This is a process constantly occurring in nature and ever excites interest in the beholder. When a large spider, three inches long, throws off the old integument, it is a thrilling sight. In the present case the tarantula had evidently been feeling unwell for some days, a condition frequently preceding this process among insects, and that morning she was found lying on her back and apparently dead, but moved a little upon being disturbed. She lay thus till about quarter past twelve when the rustling her movements made excited attention. ‘The old skin had then ruptured around the thorax in such a manner that the top could be removed entire and through this opening the giant spider was literally working out of her old skin (see plate 6.) This was accomplished by the aid of the eight legs and the two leg-like 220 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM palpi. At the end of an hour the change had been effected. The spider lay upon her back, beside the perfect skin, resting from the severe exertion. . Some idea of the perfect condition of the skin may be obtained from plates 6, 7, which is a reproduction from photographs of the dorsal and ventral surface of the exuvia. The dorsal aspect (see plate 6) shows very plainly the coxal cavities (¢) and the line of rupture of the cephalo- thoracic dorsal piece (2), which was laid back and to one side in order to give a fuller representation of other parts. The more delicate abdomi- nal covering (e) was torn a little during the process of molting and more when the skin was mounted. ‘The position of the eyes (4) is shown very nicely on the dorsal covering of the cephalo-thorax. The poison fangs. can be seen distinctly between the palpi (f) in the view of the ventral. aspect (see plate 7). Their shiny black surface reflected so much light that they appear nearly white. This tarantula was unusually large before she molted and is now of still greater size. Anidea of the increase in size attendant upon molting may be gained by comparing the dimensions of the dorsal piece of the skin shed about the latter part of 1896 when under the care of Dr Bigelow and the one cast in July. The first measures 1 inch and the second measures 1+ inches in length. Therefore, the present dorsabh piece will probably be proportionately larger when fully expanded. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 24 MINTS‘ ABOUL INSECTICIDES | A knowledge of the life history and habits of most of our insects is at present limited to comparatively few species and the number of well- known forms will probably ever remain relatively small. In spite of this drawback, destructive insects must be controlled or crops will be ruined. In many cases very precious time is wasted if the owner of a field must submit examples of the depredator to an expert at the experiment station _or elsewhere, in order to ascertain the proper remedy. While establish- ing the identity of an insect is extremely important, the farmer, whose corn is being devoured at the rate of an acre a day by the army worm, is more concerned to know the best methods of fighting the pest than to learn its scientific name. Though the injuries by insects are not always so strik- ing as in the case of the army worm, the great advantage in controlling them at the inception of the attack can not be overestimated. It is a well-known fact that many insects succumb more readily to insecticides when young than later. This is not only true of scale insects, but applies to certain caterpillars and other forms. ‘Though insecticides and their action have frequently been explained, the facts show, most conclusively great need of instruction in their use. How insects feed. Before attempting to control an insect, we must first ascertain how it can be affected. The large amounts of paris green and similar substances used, at once suggest the idea of poisoning its food. But can the insect under consideration be killed in that manner P As paris green is effective only when taken internally, and is practically insoluble in water, it must be eaten with the food before the depredator can be killed. In other words paris green and similar poisons can be employed successfully against those insects only which bite off and swallow their food, and even then it is limited to cases where the poison can be applied to parts eaten. It is not enough to ascertain merely that the pest is one that devours, but the portion of the plant consumed must be known and the application made where it will be eaten. In the case of the apple-tree tent caterpillar, which devours the entire leaf, it makes little difference whether the poison be applied to the upper or under surface of the foliage, except that when on the latter it is less likely to be washed off by rains. It is a very important matter in the case of the elm-leaf beetle, whose larvae feed only on the under side of the leaves, rarely rupturing the upper epidermis, and for this reason poison applied to the upper side ofthe leaf would have little or no effect on them. Other biting insects are found in places where it is practically impossible to poison their food. Such are the leaf miners, tiny larvae that obtain all 222, NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM their sustenance between the upper and lower epidermis of one leaf, the Jarvae tunneling apples and other fruits, or the borers in the trunks of trees, The practical farmer or fruit grower soon learns that another class of insects is not affected by such internal poisons as have been mentioned, Each season several reports are received at my office stating that paris green has no effect when sprayed on trees infested with aphids or plant lice. The simple reason for this is, that these forms belong to a large class known as sucking insects, because they extract the fluids upon which they live through a delicate beak inserted into the tissues. Con- sequently particles of internal poisons lying upon the surface of a food plant have no effect, as the tip of the tiny beak is beneath the surface when the insect draws its fill. It is not difficult to recognize these sucking insects by their work, and one soon becomes familiar with their general aspect. They never devour portions of plants. The most common evidence of injury is the withering or wilting of either entire leaves or limited portions. A small lens will readily show whether the injury is due to a biting or sucking insect. Some of the more common species falling in this latter class are all plant lice, scale insects and the larger forms like the squash bug, the four-lined leaf bug and their allies. Operation of contact insecticides. Asa rule it is best to protect a plant by applying paris green or other poison to its foliage, provided the insect is one that devours. Otherwise, recourse must be had to con- tact insecticides, that is, to substances that will kill an insect when brought into contact with it. None of those commonly used are so deadly to insect life, that they will kill by simply touching the victim, at a single point. They operate by closing or choking the breathing pores or spiracles, along the sides of the caterpillar, or they may exert a para_ lyzing influence through these orifices. ‘Therefore it will be seen at once that success will be in proportion to the thoroughness with which the treatment is performed. Insects not hit by the contact insecticide are unharmed, those barely touched, if affected at all, may recover, Only those well covered with the substance succumb. It is by no means easy to secure the des?red results, even with the aid of a good spraying apparatus. Some insects take flight so quickly that it is practically impossible to hit many with a spray. Among these are the small leaf hoppers which are sometimes very injurious to certain plants, and about the only way they can be killed is by catching them on sticky fans or screens carried between the rows. Many plant lice secrete a woolly substance which serves to protect them from the action of insecticides, The drop of honey dew on the young pear psylla andthe hard covering of many scale insects serve the same purpose. ‘The, attacks of some plant lice cause the leaves to curl and thus they are protected from deadly sprays. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 223 It will be readily seen that the correct application of an insecticide involves a number of considerations. If it is not done properly the effort is useless, and money is lost in the labor wasted and on the poor crop resulting. Useless remedies. Avoid patent remedial preparations, specially those that are advertised to kill most, if not all insects, and act as a fer- tilizer in the bargain. A large corps of trained workers in experiment stations and other public positions are at present engaged in searching for new insecticides and in determining the best methods of applying them. Recommendations from such sources can usually be relied upon. Some of the preparations sold in the markets undoubtedly are of value, but they owe their efficacy to well-known substances and not to certain secret compounds. The great objection to this class of insecticides is that the farmer pays several times the value of the article, because it is in a disguised form, and he is usually ignorant of its nature, There are other remedies which are totally worthless, having no intrinsic value of them- selves. One of the most persistently advertised of these is the old trick of plugging a tree with sulfur or other substance in order to render the sap distasteful to insects of all kinds. This is a fascinating theory, but has absolutely no basis in fact. ‘The safest way is to disre- gard all innovations till they have been duly tested at experiment stations or by other known authorities. Preventives. The old proverb, ‘ An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,’ is most emphatically true in controlling insects. Un- favorable weather, a rush of work or other causes may enable an insect — to commit serious injuries before it can be stopped. Repeated rains frequently cause postponement of spraying. It is well known that the period of greatest insect activity is also the time when farmers have the most work on their hands. Another noticeable fact is that the man who practises a wise rotation of crops, keeps his orchard clean and allows no rubbish and brush along the fences, is the one who seldom bemoans loss from insects. It has also frequently been observed that healthy, vigorous plants suffer less from insects than those in a sickly condition. In other words, clean culture with abundant plant food, and a rotation of crops are the best checks upon the undue increase of insect pests. Need of experiment. The following formulas comprise what are regarded as the most reliable, but must be modified under varying con- ditions, to meet the demands of the occasion. It should be borne in mind ‘that in many cases it is not so much the insecticide used as the manner of its application, though in some cases the difference is due to a varia- tion in composition. For example, one man will use paris green and not 224 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM london purple and another the reverse. Yet both’ have been the object of considerable experimentation and are of nearly equal value, though the latter is said to be more variable in composition. The same may be said of kerosene emulsion and a whale oil soap solution. In the case of these preparations, it is always advantageous to make a fewtests. To a certain extent a man may depend upon the experience of others, but he should also ascertain by trial what proportions, with his own apparatus and under the conditions at hand, will give the best results. Arsenical compounds. These are effective against insects which devour portions of a plant and of value only when placed where they will be eaten. The following formulae are commonly employed: EIS WORECM Li aca ee eye ee Lie sain ees siete I pound ROGAN: sls exe cade =, Painter ee BENG OS NES ERS 1 pound DALE E rye) dct wie bine aie Bead a ce Aaa PPO Re eh eae 100-300 gallons Gendon: purple jc. ites se ea: Be ie ttle tie Eee 1 pound yneklime <2 Ws.

The addi- tion of lime is not necessary, specially with paris green, but is a wise precaution as is neutralizes any free arsenic acid and thus prevents burn- ing. Paris green can be applied with the bordeaux mixture,¢ at the rate of 4 ounces of the poison to 50 gallons of the fungicide, and in this. preparation both fungi and many insects find an effective check. ; If desired, paris green or london purple can be dusted on low plants, such as potatoes and asparagus, when they are wet with dew, pro- vided the poison is diluted with from 50 to roo parts of flour or land plaster. Another substance which has received high praise and may come into general use after its good qualities become better known, is the arsenate: of lead. The value of this compound as an insecticide has been a The following formula is taken from Budletin 114, Cornell university agricultural expert ment station : Normal or 1.6% Bordeaux mixture: Copper sulfate, 6 pounds Quicklime, 4 pounds Water, 40-50 gallons. Dissolve the copper sulfate by putting itin a bag of coarse cloth and hanging ina vessel con- taining at least 4 gailons of water, so that it will be just covered. Use an earthen or wooden vessel. Slake the lime in an equal amount of water. Then mix the twoand add enough water to make 4o gallons. Itis then ready for immediate use. If the mixture is to be used on peach, foliage it is advisable to add 2 pounds of lime to the above-formula. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 225 brought out by numerous experiments, made in the extensive work against the gypsy moth. One advantage is that it can be applied in very large quantities without injuring the foliage. When properly pre- pared, it remains for some time suspended in the water, imparting a milky color, and also adheres to the leaves much longer than either paris - green or london purple. Its whiteness is another advantage, because of which, it is readily detected upon green foliage. In order to obtain the best results, the poison should be prepared just before using, by dissolving 11 ounces of acetate of lead (sugar of lead) in. 4 quarts of water in a wooden pail, and 4 ounces of arsenate of soda (50 %) in 2 quarts of water in another wooden pail. As the acetate or sugar of lead dissolves rather slowly in cold water, the process can be hastened by using warm water. ‘The resulting solutions should then be poured into the spraying tank containing enough water to give the desired proportions. In most cases this will mean turning them into roo or 150 gallons of water. Experiments by those connected with the gypsy moth work and others show that it can be applied in almost any proportion without injuring even the most delicate foliage. In cases where the insect is able to. resist the action of considerable poison, as the gypsy moth and canker worm, or where the insecticide must remain on the trees for a consider- able length of time in order to be most effective, as in the case of the elm- leaf beetie, or where the delicate foliage prohibits the use of sufficient paris green or london purple, the arsenate of lead will be found in- valuable. One objection to this substance, is the variable composition of the chemicals from which it is prepared. If either is in excess, it. should be the lead salt, because that will not injure the leaves. A simple test? for soluble arsenic acid, is the addition of a few drops of lead acetate (sugar of lead) solution to a filtered portion of the arsenate of lead solution. A white precipitate indicates the presence of soluble arsenic and more lead acetate (sugar of lead) should be added, or the foliage will be burned by the arsenic. Compounds of arsenic can not only be sprayed upon foliage, but they can also be used most successfully in the preparation of poisoned baits, specially for cut worms, the army worm and grasshoppers. Fresh clover or other attractive food is dipped in water and paris green, using considerably more poison than when spraying, and bunches of it are dis- tributed over the infested fields. Some form of a mash as, for example, one composed of 1 pound of paris green to 50 pounds of bran, well a Proportions recommended by Dr C. H. Fernald. éSmith, F.J. Mass. Board of agriculture on gypsy moth. Report, Jan. 1808, p. 67. 226 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM moistened, has been found very effective against cut worms. Some prefer to sweeten it with cheap sugar or molasses, specially for grasshoppers. The disadvantage of the. mash is that it soon dries and then is of no value. In experiments against cut worms in onion fields, Mr Sirrine found that either dry bran and.paris green in equal parts or 20 pounds of middlings to 1 pound of poison was a very effective bait. Internal and contact insecticides combined. MHellebore and tobacco may act either internally or kill by contact. One ounce of fresh white hellebore thoroughly mixed in 3 gallons of water is a ‘ proportion recommended by Lodeman and Gould,¢ while Dr Smith gives I ounce to 2 quarts of water. It may be applied pure or mixed with plaster or flour if desired. It is used largely against currant worms, specially when the presence of nearly mature fruit prohibits the ‘application of paris green. A strong decoction of tobacco may be prepared by boiling stems and other refuse till a deep brown extract is obtained. A few trials will enable one to ascertain how much this can be diluted and still be effec- tive. It may be used successfully as a contact insecticide against soft bodied insects like plant lice, saw fly larvae and others, and it may also serve as a repellant or poison when applied to plants for the purpose of protecting them from attacks by flea beetles, and many other insects. If in the form of a fine dust, itis a very effective contact insecticide, and may beused with great advantage on the surface or worked into the ground around trees infested with root lice and other subterranean in- sects. In greenhouses it is very valuable, when stems or leaves are laid around, specially on the heating pipes, as its odor seems to be unfavor- able to insect life. ‘There is no easier method of keeping plant lice under control in a conservatory than by fumigation with tobacco smoke. Contact insecticides. The most important of those commonly used are kerasene emulsion, whale oil soap solution and pyrethrum. The standard kerosene emulsion is prepared as follows: EL atd -SOap, ...)..5 ache wee le iele ve =! esa eee eel ih ees ee > pound W aber 2.2) = seis. eciapape ipberhe. qale. pS 0bid, « delice a eerie aiken gy 1 gallon KGroseme sy: in wc Ltereeeeiere. oie ees ee ep 2 gallons Dissolve the soap in boiling water and while still hot add the kerosene and emulsify by passing it rapidly through a force pump till it assumes a creamy consistency and oil does not rise to the surface.

In limestone regions where hard water is the rule, ‘Detter results will probably be obtained by using the sour milk emul- a Bulletin 114, Cornell university agricultural experiment station. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 227 sion, which is simply 2 gallons of kerosene and x gallon of sour milk emulsified by churning or passing through a pump. Besides being effective against exposed insects on plants, successful experiments on white grubs infesting the lawn around the capitol at Washington, D. C., indicate that kerosene emulsion may also be used against subterranean insects. Though the usual strength recommended is 1 part of the standard kerosene emulsion to g parts of water, Mr Marlatt has shown that it may be applied diluted with but 4 parts of water with almost no injury to growing plants (/msect life. 1894. 7: 116, 117). Machines now on the market are said to give a reliable water and kerosene emulsion, the two constituents being taken from separate tanks in the desired proportions and emulsified mechanically as they pass through the nozzle. Pure kerosene is also being recommended by some as an insecticide that can be applied to trees in a fine spray on a bright drying day, without serious injury. The results heretofore obtained by different experimentors have been so contradictory that this treatment can hardly be indorsed without qualification. The safest way, as stated by Dr Howard, is for each man to experiment in a small: aes before he sprays many trees with this substance. For scale insects, whale oil soap may be applied in winter at the rate of 15 to 2 pounds in 1 gallon of water, as recommended by Dr Howard. For summer use the extreme strength is given by Dr Smith as 1 pound to 4 gallons of water. Pyrethrum, Dalmatian or insect powder, when fresh, is a valuable con- tact insecticide. It is usually applied in the powdered form, is not poisonous to man or the higher animals, and is largely used for house- hold insects, in greenhouses and small gardens. If desired, it can be diluted with flour, in which event it should be mixed and allowed to stand several hours before it is wanted, or it may be used in water at the rate of r ounce to 2 gallons of water, it either being boiled or allowed to remain some hours before application. If moistened and molded into cones, it may be burned with very satisfactory results, for the fumes, while not disagreeable to man, paralyze and kill many insects. Sulfur is a valuable insecticide, specially against mites. In green- houses it is often strewed on the heating pipes or scattered about the house, and in this way a/mild fumigation is obtained that is quite effec- tive in keeping the red spider under control. It is frequently used in poultry houses and applied to stock. Bisulfid of lime is said to be an even better remedy for mites. This is easily prepared by boiling together in a little water equal parts of sulfur and lime, till a brownish liquid results. Use at the rate of 5 pounds of sulfur and 5 pounds of lime to 100 gallons of water. a Marlatt, C. L. Farmer's bulletin 19. 1897. -p. 11. 228 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM ’ Fumigation. Carbon bisulfid and hydrocyanic acid gas are the two substances most frequently employed for killing insects within tight inclosures, though the fumes of burning sulfur or pyrethrum are also used to a slight extent. The proportion of carbon bisulfid recom- mended by Dr Howard, is 1 pound to every thousand cubic feet of space. The grain or other substance to be fumigated must be in a tight vessel or building and the chemical placed in shallow vessels near the top of the inclosure, because the heavy, poisonous vapor from this liquid descends rapidly. As carbon bisulfid is inflammable and its gas ex- plosive, great care must be exercised that no fire is brought near during fumigation. The period of exposure to this insecticide should vary some- what according to the mass treated. Grain in large bins should be sub- jected to its action for a day or two. As carbon bisulfid evaporates rapidly, treatment with it does not injure grain for food purposes and unless unduly prolonged, will not affect its germination to an appreciable extent. This substance is also very effective against root-inhabiting forms. In the case of trees and vines, holes should be made with an iron bar about 13 feet apart and 1 foot deep over the area occupied by the roots, but no hole should be within a foot of the trunk. Use 4 ounce@ of car- bon bisulfid to each hole and close the top at once with soil. Inthe case of .cabbage plants make a small hole 2 inch from the plant and pour in a teaspoonful of the insecticide, closing as before. This chemical may be used against ants, it being advisable, as recommended by Dr Lintner, to cover the nest with a damp blanket, and at the expiration of a few moments the accumulated vapor under the blanket should be exploded by a light on the end of a pole. The explosion drives the fumes deeper into the nest. The treatment of trees infested by scale insects with hydrocyanic acid gas has been carried on for some years in California. The introduction of the San José scale into many states east of the Rocky mountains, has led to fumigation being used to a greater or less extent in this region. By scme it has been reported entirely effective and others have had different results. In most cases it will be found advisable to destroy young - trees infested with the San José scale, though when large numbers are but slightly infested, thorough fumigation with hydrocyanic acid gas may be preferred. This treatment is also recommended for nursery stock show- ing the presence of other pests, as the more common scale insects, plant lice or aphids, pear psylla, apple-leaf Bucculatrix and other forms that are a The quantities and distances are those recommended by the Division of entomology, U.

The value of the chemicals used has been estimated by Professor. Johnson at not over 2 cents per 1000 nursery trees.

R. Gunnis, chairman of the San Diego county board of horticultural commissioners (Howard, Boe U.S. Wep't Agr., Div. Ent. 1898, p. 60). Prof. Johnson states that repeated funigation will not injure nursery stock and that if necessary the above amounts may be safely used to every 75 cubic feet of space. If no San José scale is present, the above quantities should be suffi- cient for 150 cubic feet. Expose the stock to the action of the gas for one hour. It will be found necessary to construct some form of a receptacle in which to conduct the treatment. This may be simply a tight box that can be inverted and its edges banked with earth, or one with covers, or even a building or portion of one, as circumstances may dictate. It must be practically air tight, easily and quickly ventilated and the stock should rest on a grating or other support that will permit ready access of the fumes on all sides. The earth should be removed from the roots of the stock so far as practicable before fumigation. The gas should be generated as near the center of the lot to be treated as possible and in case of large amounts, several generators should be used and so placed that a rapid and uniform distribution of the gas will be insured. The cyanide must be kept in tight bottles in a sate place, as it is a volatile, deadly poison. The cubical contents of the fumigating chamber should be estimated, the cyanide weighed out in amounts suffi- cient for a treatment and put in paper bags. Pour the acid slowly into the water, stirring the mixture constantly, otherwise drops may fly and burn those in the vicinity. After the stock is properly arranged, pour the necessary amount of dilute acid into a glazed earthen vessel, place the cyanide while still in the paper bag into the acid and water, aiid close the fumigator. The advantage of putting the cyanide into the acid and water while still in the paper bag is that it prevents sputtering, which is @aProf. W. G. Johnson, state entomologist of Maryland, as a result of a large series of experi- ments performed last year and the present season, recommends a slivhtly different formula. He -advises the use of 1 ounce of cyanide of potassium, 14 ounces of the best grade of commercial sulfuric acid and 24 ounces of water to 113 cubic feet of space. Inhis experience, a more perfect ereaction between the chemicals is obtained by modifying the formula as given above. 230 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM specially liable to occur when large amounts are used. Great care should be exercised in handling the cyanide, the acid, and in opening after fumigation. ‘The substances used are deadly. Even a slight burn from sulfuric acid is very painful. Recent experiments by Prof. Johnson show that in Maryland growing trees can be treated with this gas and every scale insect killed. The results obtained in some other eastern states are not so favorable, and, as an outfit for trees of any size is quite expensive, it is hardly probable that it will come into general use, unless it is undertaken by experienced persons who would go from place to place and fumigate wherever desired. It can be used to very good advantage in freeing greenhouses from animal pests of all kinds, and when it becomes better known may be more generally employed. In treating the various plants in green- houses, the amount of gas necessary would not be so great as in the case of the San José scale. The formula given above would produce enough gas for at least every 150 cubic feet of space, and the action should not be continued over 30 minutes. Dr Jabez Fisher, of Fitchburg, Mass., recommends the use of this amount in greenhouses for from 1,000 to 2,000 cubic feet of space, allowing the gas to act all night (American gardening, 1898. 19:741). REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 23 ! NORES “ON, SOME’ OF, THE INSECTS OF. THE»YEAR IN EE SAE PON EWE YORK The present season has been characterized by the scarcity of plant lice, only one or two complaints being received, whereas in 1897, reports of injuries by these insects came from all quarters. The foliage of the forest and shade trees appears to have suffered more than usual. In Albany. and other cities and towns in the state, the white marked tussock moth, WVotolophus leucostigmz Sm.-Abb., and the elm-leaf beetle Galerucella luteola Miller, have been more injurious than usual. In the rural districts the tent caterpillars have wrought havoc in orchard and forest. Eriocampoides limacina Aefzivs. The cherry or pear-tree slug causes more or less injury from year to year in New York state, specially is this true of nursery stock. During the inspection of nurseries last autumn, indications of its presence on pear-trees was the rule and in some cases the foliage had been materially injured. Last June Thomas Tupper, of Corning, N. Y., reported a serious injury by this insect to both his cherry and pear trees. Saw toothed grain beetle.? The following interesting case of, longevity in the adults of this species, Si/vanus surinamensis Linn., is deemed worthy of record. May 26, 1896, examples of this minute beetle were brought into the office by Mr 8. C. Bradt of Albany. After killing a few examples, the remainder were placed in a box with some flour in the hope that they would continue to breed. On August 26 of that same year, three individuals were transferred to clean flour in another box for the purpose of closer observation. Every few days or a week, the box was examined to see whether breeding had commenced, but no signs of increase were visible. Two were accidentally crushed July 31, 1897, which was over a year from the time they had been received and 1r months after they had been isolated. ‘The remaining individual con- tinued bright and active and finally disappeared between June 15 and 25, 1898. It had probably been allowed to escape by accident. This latter example had been. under close observation for nearly 22 months, and since it was an adult when placed with its two companions in a separate box, it may have been several months older. Asa check upon this series of observations, seven beetles were confined with some samp in a tightly corked vial, Sep. 4, 1396, and notes were made of their condition. During the entire time there were no signs of a Read before a meeting of the Association of economic entomologists held at Boston, Mass., August 19, 1898.

Between November 15 and December 9, one of these two died, but the remaining one is still bright and active at this date, Noy. 18, 1898, and has therefore lived for over 26 months under close observation with no better food than dry samp. The above record shows beyond doubt that these beetles can maintain life for long periods of time under com- paratively unfavorable conditions. Byturus unicolor Say. The latter part of May Dr Peck, state bot- anist, brought me several beetles belonging to this species, with the state- ment that from one to five were to be found-in many of the opening buds of his raspberry plants where they were evidently feeding. This insect does not appear to have been noticed in the state since Dr Fitch gave a brief account of it in his r4th report for 1870, though Dr Lintner records in his 8th report for 1891, its receipt from New Haven, Ct., where it had been injuring leaves and buds of the raspberry. Elaphidion villosum /adr. Complaints of injuries by the oak or maple-tree pruner have come from several localities the present season. Serious injuries were reported to me from Lake George and also from Oakes, Ulster county, where its operations had been observed for several years past. ; Galerucella luteola JZi//er. The prolificacy of the imported elm- leaf beetle was brought very forcibly before me by certain studies made in connection with the preparation of Stave museum bulletin 20. ‘The last day of May, I captured two beetles well distended with eggs and determined to ascertain for myself the number they would produce. One was confined in asmall, corked vial, and the other in a jelly tumbler. As might be expected, there was considerable difference in the number of eggs deposited, the former producing 431 and the latter 623. A por- tion of the discrepancy was probably due to disparity of conditions and the remainder must be attributed to a variation in capacity. In order to bring out certain points clearly, I have tabulated the record.

The 12th being Sunday, I did not attend to the beetles, but from there being two or more clusters found with each on Monday, it is probable that one or more were depos- ited the preceding day. The record shows that from either the 12th or 13th there was a marked increase in the number of eggs laid till the 23d, there being, as a rule, from 8 to over 40 deposited daily. In the case of the one confined in the vial, the record shows a discrepancy, which is greater than the facts warrant. J was unable to attend to the insects on the 18th, consequently it appears as though two days during this period had been skipped by one beetle and one by the other, whereas it is probable that but a day passed without the beetle in the vial depositing eggs and that the other really presents an unbroken record in this respect. During this short period of ro or 11 days there were deposited over half of the total number of eggs produced during the 28 @ The examinations were made asa rule, between 8.30 and g a. m., though occasionally, when eggs were seen in the afternoon, they were recorded at the time indicated in the table. The dates falling on Sunday are in italics and as a rule no observations were made then. TT 234 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM days a record was kept, the figures being 238 and 338, or an average of over 21 and 30 eggs per day respectively... The average numbers deposited during the first rz days of the month are 14 and 18 respectively, which shows there was an increase of one-half or more in the case of each beetle after June 11. Those deposited after the 25th were apparently the last efforts of the insects to provide for the perpetuity of their kind, though the quality of the eggs had not deteriorated. . During the whole period the beetles were under observation, they con- sumed large quantities of foliage, comparatively speaking. Many leaves of the trees outside were also badly riddled by their feeding. If we con- sider for but a moment the relatively large bulk of eggs produced by the beetles, it is not surprising that they require a large amount of food. Without attempting to make precise measurements, it would seem that a cluster of 30 eggs would present, after deposition, a bulk about equal to that of the parent insect. If this be a fair estimate, they produced on the average from nearly one-half to nearly two-thirds of their bulk in eggs daily during the first 11 days in June and from the 12th to the 23d the daily average was from over two-thirds to an equal bulk. ‘This rapid elaboration -of eggs must make a large demand upon the system and require an abundant food supply. | Lest it be thought that the period of oviposition was abnormally pro- longed, I would state that recently deposited eggs were to be found on the trees up to July 9. This record indicates most emphatically the value of spraying to kill the beetles, specially before they have reached the more prolific period mentioned above. A few notes confirmatory of previous records concerning the life history of this insect in Albany and Troy will undoubtedly be of interest. The last of the overwintered beetles were seen early in July. On the 16th, recently transformed adults were easily found, and fresh eggs a few days later, either singly or in small clusters, indicated the beginning of oviposi- tion by the second brood. On 12 August, Mr P. C. Lewis, who had charge of the spraying in Albany, informed me that the second brood of. larvae had been quite injurious in certain parts of the city and that the beetles, ever on the watch for tender foliage, riddled the leaves very quickly. A visit to Troy onthe 13th showed that practically the same conditions prevailed there. Soon after the foliage appeared it was attacked by the beetles and by the time the leaves were about half grown many larvae were to be found upon them. The injury to the elms in Troy by the first brood of larvac exceeded that of the preceding two years, because it was not only much more extended but the skeletonizing of the leaves was more thorough. As arule all the European elms were practically defoliated. The same would have been true of Albany were it not for the spraying done. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 235 An interesting feature in the latter city was the more extended injury sustained by the American elms. In Troy comparatively few of this species appear to have suffered much. The same was true of Albany two years ago. Last year considerable injury was inflicted and the present season much more in spite of the spraying. It should be stated that rainy weather just after the larvae hatched marred the efficiency of the work seriously. A few of the American elms in Albany have lost nearly every leaf and hundreds have been so affected that they present a more or less browned appearance. In Watervliet, where American elms abound, the ravages have been frightful, ‘including practically all the elms. Galerucella cavicollis ZeC. In his 11th report Dr Lintner noticed this insect briefly and gave its earlier history. The species is one that is apparently changing its habits and becoming destructive. Mr Tupper, of Corning, N. Y., submitted examples of this insect and leaves from his cherry-trees, with the statement that they were injuring the trees seriously and might kill them. This is the second record of a recent attack on cherry in New York state by this species. Notolophus leucostigma Sw.-46d. The larvae of this species were unusually destructive in Albany this season. Not only were a large number ot horse chestnuts defoliated, as frequently occurs from year to year, but many of the maples and lindens were seriously injured. On some trees the caterpillars were so abundant as to cause an unpleasant odor. It appears nearly impossible to secure adequate protection for trees along the streets, unless it is undertaken by the municipal authori- ties. The private individual who inquires what he should do to protect his trees after two-thirds of the foliage is destroyed, usually neglects to take proper precautions to prevent trouble another season. The injuries by this species in Buffalo have been so general as to excite considerable attention from the public and have led to the issuing of a special circular by the board of public works, giving directions for _ controlling the insect. It was also reported as very abundant at Flush- ioe ae Ravages by tent caterpillars. In early spring a number of reports came tome of the extraordinary abundance and destructiveness of the apple-tree tent caterpillar, Clistocampa americana Fabr. In many localities the larvae stripped the trees and nearly covered the naked limbs _with their webs. Such work was clearly the result of neglect and yet Mr S. D. Willard, of Geneva, who cares for his trees each year, informed me that this insect caused him considerable trouble last spring, notwith- standing his efforts to keep it under control. 236 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Last year the so-called forest tent caterpillar, CZstocampa disstria Hiibn., was very injurious in certain parts of the state, stripping the foliage from hundreds of acres of maples and other trees in Delaware county and in other portions of thestate. It was hoped that the ravages by this species would not be repeated the present season, but such was not the case. Examples of this caterpillar were received from Glens Falls, N. Y., on June 2, with the statement that they were very numerous and injuring the maples seriously. At Trenton Falls, N. Y., the cater- pillars were very abundant, and injurious in the woods, though the trees were only partially defoliated. At Russell, St Lawrence county, the leaves were stripped from 125 acres of maple-trees, most probably ‘by this species. It was also reported to me as very injurious this year in Otsego, Delaware and Greene counties. Mamestra picta Aarris. A remarkable abundance of larvae in timothy hay was brought to my notice on July 13. Mr W.C. Browning, of Alexandria Bay, states that he had been putting in hay trom a 20-acre lot and the next morning found the surface of the mow literally alive with caterpillars, identified from examples sent as those of this species. Large numbers must have been present in the field, as they had probably been gathered up with the hay accidentally. In response to an inquiry, Mr Browning informed me that the caterpillars had not been observed except on this field. Last year they had entirely destroyed his crop of oats, and this season they were much more numerous than before. Xylina antennatta Walker« One of the most interesting and remarkable outbreaks of the year occurred at Schenectady, N. Y., when hundreds of silver maples were defoliated by the caterpillars belonging to the species named above. My attention was called to the insect by a young man bringing me about 4 pint of larvae with a story of their destructiveness. On visiting the city, it was found that the reports were true. The soft maples were practically stripped. Numerous larvae were seen on the trunks, in some cases 50 to 100 on a single tree. Many were seen along the walks and in the road- ways bordered by the maples. Even were one deprived of sight, the olfactory organs could easily detect their presence from the peculiar odor emanating from the hosts of caterpillars. ‘There were no indications of the insects’ work in Albany, though only 17 miles distant, but along the Mohawk river as far west as Herkimer, on the Raqueite river in St Law- rence county and in Schoharie county many soft maples were defoliated, _ indicating the work of the same insect, -possibly, though the species could not be determined because no examples were submitted.

This insect has been unusually destructive in Albany and ‘Troy the present season. For the past three years the Camperdown elms in Washington park, Albany, have suffered rather severely from this species.

On May 3 the larches were alive with females and eggs. Large masses of eggs were to be found at the base of nearly every fascicle of leaves on some limbs. Over 200 were counted in an egg mass of moderate size, while around the base of other fascicles two to three times this number were to be found. At this time the young were beginning to hatch and some had settled onthe larch needles, where they presented a close resemblance to black grains of gunpowder. In the course of a few weeks, these young increase in size and excrete an abundant white woolly matter. They were so thick on the trees in 1897, that the latter part of June the larches appeared as though dusted with flour or starch. The life history of this species, as worked out by European investiga- tors, is most interesting, comprising, as it does, a life cycle of two years’ duration, and passing through five generations. Briefly, it is as follows: 1) Wingless female lice pass the winter at the base of young pine buds, produce galls in the spring and in them winged 2) feinales develop, part of which migrate in August to the larches and lay eggs upon the needles. From these eggs emerge 3) young which hibernate in the crevices of the bark and the following spring attack the base of the buds and produce the eggs which attract attention on the larches, and from which the black 4) young emerge, a portion eventually developing into winged females, and returning to the pines the latter part of May (probably later in this latitude, as this generation is abundant upon larches till the last ot June), where they lay eggs producing 5) males and females, which in turn are parents to the hibernating form first mentioned and thus the life cycle is completed. So far as known, this is the first record of the occurrence of this species in America. The following synonyms are those given by Dr Cholod- kovsky*: Chermes coccineus Ratz.? in part; C. daricis Ratz., Koch in part; C. gemiculatus Ratz., in part; C. hamadryas Koch; C. atratus Buckton?; C. lariceti Altum ?

This insect, the alder blight aphis, has been abundant the past two years on a cut leaved alder in Washing- ton park, Albany, and eventually injured it so much that the tree was removed. It occurs in masses on the under side of the twigs, sometimes being so numerous as to be ‘hanging in strings’ from the limbs. The a Added subsequently. 6 Identified by Dr N.

Pulvinaria innumerabilis Ratdv. This destructive scale insect is being constantly brought to notice here and there in the state, though during the past few years it appears to have been less destructive than usual. On July 5 this scale was reported as injuring the elms seriously at Sandy Hill, N. Y., and affecting the maples to a less extent. At that time the young had not left the protecting filaments of the mother, though they were numerous in the cottony secretion. A few days later twigs of maple were received from Baldwin, L. I., their con- 240 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM dition revealing a very serious attack. One side of each twig was nearly covered by the adults while the young fairly swarmed over everything (fig. 20).

One of the interesting features of the year was the detection of this scale, identified by Mr Pergande, in Erie county, N. Y. In response to inquiry about its introduction, Mr Hayes stated that he could not account for it in any manner. The vine upon which the species was found had been planted 10 years. His neighborshad not set out any Californian stock and he had used no fruit from that state for several years. A possible source of introduction is the sending to this state in 1896 of examples of this scale infested with Comys fusca, by Mr Ed. M. Ehrhorn, Horticultural commissioner of Santa Clara county, California. This was done, it was stated, in the hope that the parasite would attack the New York plum scale. Lecanium cerasifex /itch. This scale, identified as probably this species by Mr Coquillett, has been very injurious to several soft maples in Albany the past two or three years. The trees have been dwarfed by the attack and each summer are more or less blackened by the copious honey dew secreted by the insects. Many of the limbs were nearly cov- ered with the scales on their under surface and during a portion, at least, of July and early in August the young swarmed over branches and leaves. San Jose scale. This pest, Aspidiotus perniciosus Comst., has demon- strated its ability to thrive in the Hudson river valley as far north as Albany, at least. Just across the river at East Greenbush, an infested REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 241 fruit garden has been under my eye for over a year. The scale has spread in spite of the efforts of the owner, who used whale oil soap to some extent. It has ruined manycurrant bushes, and badlystunteda number of pear trees, besides infesting to a certain degree peach and apple-trees. On the gth of last July, numerous young were to be found on the more tender shoots, some appearing as though dusted with pollen on account of Fig. 20 Young of PULVINARIA INNUMERABILIS on maple leaf (original). ; the larvae clustered at their tips. Developing scales were found in small numbers on the leaves and abundantly on the fruit. At its present rate of multiplication, most of the young trees in that garden will be ruined lu a few years. Only this spring, I found the scale at Lebanon Springs, some 20 miles from the Hudson river, and at an elevation of goo feet — 29° below zero being known in that locality. Even when exposed to such extremes of temperature, and probably outside the limits of the upper austral life zone, the insect had been able to not only hold its own but had increased some, as the few trees infested were badly covered with the scale. It had spread very little, though the trees had been set out FAD NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM since 1895. ‘This is evidently near the limit where climatic conditions are too severe to permit of its becoming a very injurious pest. The known distribution of this scale in the state is very interesting, since it has been found in localities here and there throughout most of the area lying within the limits of the upper austral life zone. It has been reported from localities in every county in the state east of the Hudson river, except Westchester and Washington and from those on its west bank south of Warren county, except Greene and Rockland. The following are the localities: Rensselaer county, East Greenbush ; Columbia county, Lebanon Springs, Kinderhook and Germantown ; Dutchess county, Poughkeepsie ; Putnam county, Brewster; New York county, New York; Saratoga county, Burnt Hills; Albany county, Loudonville; Ulster county, Boiceville; Orange county, Middletown. Besides localities on Long Island, it has been found in Tompkins county at Ithaca; in Seneta county at Farmer and in Cayuga county at Union Springs.

Corn-root worms. (Country gentleman. Feb. 10, 1898. 63: 107, col. 2 6o Cu) From reading an account of the life history and habits of Dzabrotica longicornis Say, a correspondent is led to inquire as to the identity of an insect which operated destructively on corn at Colora, Md., in 1895. In reply it is stated that the author of the attack is most probably the southern corn-root worm, Déabrotica 12-punctata Oliv., and preventive measures are given, Kerosene emulsion. (Country gentleman. Feb. 17, 1898. 63: 126, col. 4— 10cm) Directions are given for the preparation’ of the standard kerosene emulsion, and its proper dilution for use against several insects indicated’ Continual experimenting to find the best strength for different insects and plants is recommended, and the method of application given. Scurfy bark louse. (Country gentleman. Feb. 17, 1898. 63: 127, col. ito. Cin) : A small piece of apple-tree bark from a correspondent in Babylon, N. Y., was found to be infested with Chionaspis furfurus Fitch. The scale is briefly described and the application in June of kerosene emulsion or whale oil soap solution recom- mended for its destruction. A very different bug. (Country gentleman. Mar. 3, 1898. 63: 166, 167, col. 4, r—11 cm) A correspondent in Wyncote, Pa., sends an example of the two-spotted lady-bird, Adalia bipunctata Linn., and inquiresif itis the Buffalo carpet beetle. The chief characters of this 4da/ia and of the Coccinellidae in general are given, and their beneficial habits mentioned, The carpet beetle, Anthrenus scrophulariae Fabr., is briefly described. Two bad insects. (Country gentleman. Mar. 17,1898. 63: 206, col. 3, 4-19 cm) Apple twigs infested with the apple-tree bark louse, ALytzlaspis pomorum Bouché, and others with the San José scale, Asfidtotus perniciosus Comst., were received from Brewster, N. Y. Theclimate of this state is congenial to the latter scale, as is shown by its large numbers at East Greenbush, N. Y., and its known distribution in the state is given. Badly infested trees should be burned— reference is made to the directions for using kerosene and remedies given for the apple-tree bark louse. a This includes also Dr Lintner’s 12th report, which was issued the present year. 244 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Codling moth. (Country gentleman. Mar. 24, 1898. 63: 226, col. 1,2— 14 cm) A correspondent from Beaver Creek, Col., communicates a larva of the codling moth, Carfocapsa pomonella \.inn., and inquires if it is the insect causing patches of dead bark on his apple-trees. It is stated that this species is not a wood borer and farther search for the cause of the trouble is recommended. Bees injuring grapes. (Country gentleman. Mar. 24,1898. 63: 226, col. 2 221A etn) Complaint is made from Dutchess county that bees injure sound fruit and inquiry is made of their habits in this respect. In reply, it is stated, that there is no reliable evidence of bees attacking uninjured fruit, but that species of Vesa, ‘ yellow jackets,’ are known not only to attack sound fruit but even kill honey-bees. The exposure of a mixture of honey and sugar or glucose is advised as a palliative of the evil, Not San José. (Country gentleman. Mar. 24,1898. 63: 226, col. 3—5 cm) Limbs of an apple-tree from Ulster co., believed to be infested with the San José scale, show no traces of that insect, only a few examples of the woolly aphis of the apple, Schizoneura Janigera Hausm., being found on the twigs. Aphids in greenhouse. (Country gentleman. Mar. 31, 1898. 63: 247, col. 1—8 cm) In response to a brief inquiry of how to rid a house of the green-fly, the method of smoking for aphids with moistened tobacco stems is described. Pyrethrum, helle- bore, kerosene emulsion or a whale oil soap solution is also recommended. . Eel worms in clover. (Country gentleman. Ap. 7,1898. 63: 266, col. dg ger) . ; Dead clover roots, received from Seal, Pa., showing a spongy texture and with the interstices filled with a pale brownish powder, have most probably suffered from the attack of eel-worms. Their general characteristics and life history are given, and the work in England of 7ylexchus devastatrix Kuhn. is briefly described. [The elm-leaf beetle] (Troy daily times. Ap. 7, 1898.—13 cm) Responding to an inquiry, it is stated that the ravages of the elm-leaf beetle in Troy will probably be greater the coming season than last year. Spraying the trees with arsenites and destroying the larvae and pupae on the trunks and about the infested trees are recommended. It is San. José... (Country gentleman. Ap. 14, 1898. 63: 2860cer 3—5 cm) Scales abounding on pieces of Japan plum bark received from Woodstown, N. J., are identified as the San José scale, Aspidiotus perniciosus Comst. Destroying the infested tree and watching others in the vicinity is recommended. Probably not efficient. (Country gentleman. Ap. 14, 1898. 63: 286, 287, col. 4, 1—14 cm) In response to an inquiry from a Long Island correspondent, the manner of pre- paring and using the lime, sulfur and salt wash for the San José scale is given, © though it has little or no value in the eastern states.

The appearance of the beetles in the early spring andthe method of spraying is described. Action by the civic authorities is about the only method affording adequate protection to the trees. _[Elm-tree beetle] (Argus [Albany] May 15, 1898. p. 7, col. 2—20 cm) Popular misapprehension concerning the value of cotton bands around the trunks of elms as a preventive of injury by the elm-leaf beetle, Galerucella luteola Miiller, is corrected Sprdying with arsenites is recommended, or, if that can not be done, the destruction of larvae and pupae around the base of the trees is a check upon the insect. The punctured clover-leaf weevil. (Country gentleman. May 26, 1898. 63: 406, col. 3, 4—31 cm) Greenish larvae with a white dorsal stripe injuring clover in Monroe county are identified as those of Phytonomus punctatus Fabr. Its earlier record, distribution and life history are given briefly. A fungus disease, Zwepusa sphaerosperma, is fre- quently very destructive to the larvae of this insect. Plowing infested fields is about the only satisfactory remedy for this pest. Codling moth. (Country gentleman. May 26,1898. 63: 406, col. 4—9 cm) In response to an inquiry from Ilion, N.

The characteristics, life history and remedies for this scale are briefly given. Apple-tree bark louse. (Country gentleman. Juneg, 1898. 63:454, col. Pea Sais Gul) Mytilaspis pomorum Bouché and Dolerus sericeus Say are identified. Some obser- vations are given on insect legislation, and the scope of a practical law indicated. REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 247 Cut worms. (Country gentleman. June 16, 1898. 63:470, col. 2, 3 — 14 cm) In response to an inquiry from Columbia county requesting remedies for cut worms injuring cauliflower and cucumbers, digging them out or the use of poisoned baits of several kinds is recommended. Black ants. (Country gentleman. June 16, 1898. 63:470,col. 3 — 5 cm) A complaint from Broome county states several means found of no avail against black ants. Reference is given to directions in the preceding number of the Country gentleman for treating the nests with carbon bisulfid. Cherry-leaf beetle. (Country gentleman.

June 16, 1898 63: 474, Goer, 22> cm) Scales ona grapevine from Erie county, N. Y., are identified as Lecanium armenia- cum Craw, and briefly described, It is stated that possibly in attempting to trans- port its parasite, Comys fusca, the scale was also brought into the state. It would be well to stamp the insect out at once if possible. The remedies given are treat- ment with kerosene emulsion or a whale oil soap solution. Farther information respecting its introduction is requested. [See page 239 of this report] [Destructive maple caterpillar] (Schenectady daily union. June 20, ass. |). 2——-37 Cm) Gives briefly the injuries to silver maples in Schenectady, N. Y , by a caterpillar which is probably Vadata gibdosa [since identified as Xylina antennata Walker]. Its life history is briefly summarized and a second brood stated to be a possibility. It is unlikely that it will be injurious another season, but it is advisable to destroy all the larvae possible around the trees with hot water or kerosene emulsion, A caution is given about cutting back the defoliated trees. [See pages 207-13, 235, 236 of this report] Address delivered before the Dana natural history society, at the field meeting held at Trenton Falls, N. Y., June 17, 1898. (Albany evening journal. June 21, 1898. p. 8, col. 4, 546 cm) The incentives to entomological study, as shown by the large number of insects and the many unknown forms, are briefly given. The necessity of an army of observers is indicated by the magnitude of the field. The method of studying the life history of insects is described and its advantages mentioned. After the introduc- tion, observations during the trip were given — the following being briefly mentioned : spittle insects, Xy/ivu antennata, tent caterpillars, Crambus agitatellus, predaceous aud parasitic insects, etc, Insects on honeysuckle. (Country gentleman.

(Country gentleman. June 23,1898. 63: 490, col. 2—9 cm) Apple-tree aphis, Aphis mal Fabr., is identified, the remedy given and the state- ment made that the species will probably not cause farther injury the present season. The plum curculio is identified by its work. The Virginia creeper is thought to be of but little injury to old trees. Maples defoliated. (Country gentleman. June 23,1898. 63: 491, col. 3—8 cm) Hundreds of silver maples were defoliated by a species of ?Madata [Xylina anten- nata WWalker] in Schenectady. The outbreak is probably due to a dearth of parasites or favorable climatic conditions, and illustrates the destructive powers of many insects if unchecked.

Spraying with paris green in the early spring is recommended. [See pages 207-13 of this report] Cucumber beetle—cabbage worms. (Country gentleman. July 14, ecgs. 63: 546) col. 2— 27 cm) 3 Gives briefly the habits and life history of the striped cucumber beetle, Diabrotica vittata Fabr., and recommends protecting the young plants with netting. Planting of beans between the cucumbers, dusting the vines with land plaster, ashes or even road dust are preventives of serious injury. Clean culture is advised. If the roots are badly infested with the grubs, carbon bisulfid is the best remedy. Fresh hellebore, one ounce to three gallons of water, is recommended for the cab- bage worm, Pieris rapae. Paris green may be used if the cabbages have not headed. Destructive rose bug. (Country gentleman. July 14,1898. 63:546, eg 2—— 20 Cm) This insect, Macrodactylus subspinosus Fabr., is identified and its injuries in New England and New Jersey mentioned, Its life history is briefly given. Paris green or kerosene emulsion is usually not very satisfactory, owing to the beetle’s resistance to insecticides, Collecting the insects by some mechanical contrivance or protecting plants by netting are the most satisfactory means of preventing serious injury. Hessian fly in Pennsylvania. (Country gentleman. July 14, 1898. 63: 546, 547, col. 4, 1 — 38 cm) In response to an inquiry from Adams county, Pa., where this insect, Cecidomyia destructor Say, has been very injurious, a general account of the species is given as follows: Immense losses caused by it in New York and Ohio. Its life history. Characteristics of an attack. Its parasites and their value. Its abundance another ‘season can not be forecast, as it may be injurious for a series of years. As prevent- ives of injury, late planting supplemented by the early sowing of narrow strips to act as decoys, the burning of stubble and chaff, clean culture, rotation of crops and the growing of resistant varieties of wheat, so far as possible, are recommended. Work of Xylina. (Country gentleman. July 14,1898. 63:551, col. 2— 6 cm) ; Corrects the reference of this insect on page 491 of the current volume of the Country gentleman, from Nadata to Xylina—~it being either X. laticinerea or X. antennata. Its identity with the species seriously injuring apples last year is thus rendered probable. A note is given of the defoliated soft maples along the Mohawk river, presumably by this species.

Joseph "Albert Lintner, Ph. D., was born in Schoharie, N. Y., Feb. 8, 1822, of a German parentage. He attended Jefferson academy and was graduated from the Schoharie academy in 1837. For 10 years he was in business in New York city, and at the same time continued his studies under the - Mercantile library association, also contributing scientific articles to the | Lew York tribune. Returning to Schoharie in 1848, he engaged anew in business till 1860, when he removed to Utica and there manufactured woolen goods for some years. His scientific studies were continued un- remittingly. His large collection of insects was begun in 1853 and in 1862 his first article on entomology was published. In 1868 he became a zoological assistant in the state museum, and was put in charge of . the entomologic work in 1874. He was appointed state entomologist by Governor Cornell in 1880, a position held till his death, and in 1883 was made by the regents a member of the scientific staff of the state museum. : This long and faithful service in his chosen field made him a valued and respected leader among economic entomologists. ‘The last 36 years of his life were devoted almost entirely to entomology, and he wrote . during that time over goo independent articles, besides his 13 reports and the four numbers of Zntomological contributions. In 1871 he began ¥ to contribute articles on economic entomology to the Cultivator and country gentleman, a leading agricultural paper now known as the Country gentleman, and was its entomological editor during the last 25 Be years. He has also written many notices for a number of other agricultural and horticultural papers. Although his publications were numerous and varied, it was their writer’s ambition to make his communications of __ practical value to all. It was his delight to include something new or : _of more than ordinary interest in every notice of an insect. For the past Be 18 years he was widely known as a most earnest and conscientious state entomologist. His reports, replete with valuable and practical informa- tion, are enduring monuments to their author. In simplicity of language, dignity of expression, conciseness’ and thoroughness of treatment, they are models. The high appreciation won from his colaborers is strikingly shown in the following extract* from an address delivered in 1894 before the Asso- _ Ciation of economic entomologists by the president, Dr L. O. Howard, a Insect life. 1894. 7:63 304 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM now chief of the division of entomology, of the United States depart- ment of agriculture: The movement which resulted in the passage of this law® was started by the regents of the University of the State of New York at their annual meeting in 1877, and the person appointed to fill the office was Dr J. A. Lintner, a well-known worker in entomology, who, up to that time, had been connected with the state museum of natural history. Dr Lintner has heid office continuously since 1881. He brought to bear upon his duties a ripe experience and a mind trained in scientific meth- ods. He has published nine reports, the last one covering the year 1892, and only recently distributed. These reports are in many respects models. The great care and thoroughness of the author have hardly been equalled by any other writer upon economic entomology. The . form of the reports is most admirable, and the account of each insect forms almost invariably a complete compendium of our knowledge con- cerning it down to the date of publication. His accounts are also ar- ranged in the most convenient form for reference, a full bibliography precedes the consideration of each species, and the frequent subheadings enable the most practical use of the report. The reports are replete with sound and ingenious practical suggestions, and are written in a straight- forward, simpie style, which possesses great literary merit. They abound in illustrations, and are made available by most complete indices and tables of contents. Aside from these reports, Dr Lintner has published a great deal in the newspapers, particularly the Country gentleman, on the subject of economic entomology, and another valuable feature of his reports is the comprehensive list which he publishes each year of his unof- ficial writings. Without the magnificent opportunities our universities are offering today, this life shows in the highest degree the results of patient effort supplemented by untiring perseverance. Although prohibited by cir- cumstances from devoting his whole time to scientific pursuits till late in life, his great love for nature enabled him to attain one of the highest positions in his chosen work. In 1884 the honorary degree of doctor of philosophy was conferred on him by the regents of the University of the State of New York. He was president of. the Entomological club of the American association for the advancement of science and the Associa- tion of economic entomologists, two years each, and was president of the department of natural science of the Albany institute from 1879 till his death. He was elected to membership not only in learned societies in this coun- try, but many of those abroad were proud to enroll his name on their books, as may be seen by the appended list of memberships held at the time of his decease. A short time before his death he was granted a six months’ leave of absence by the regents in recognition of his long and faithful services. “Laws of 1881, ch. 877. The original appointment was made by Governor Cornell in 1880, under authority of ch. 549 of the Jaws of that year.

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE ENTOMOLOGIC PUBLICATIONS OF Joseph Albert Lintner, Ph. D. The highly commendable practice of the late Dr J. A. Lintner in giving lists of his papers together with place, date of publication and summary of contents, has reduced to a minimum the labor of preparing this bibliography of his writings. In bringing these titles together, it has been my aim to render the greatest value with the least repetition. The extended summaries included in the original lists have been abridged, only the names of the more important species being retained. LINTNER: ENTOMOLOGIC PUBLICATIONS 309 _ The synonymy indicated is based largely on that adopted by Dr Lintner in his index of reports 1-10, which was published in 1896. etamorphoses of Ceratomia quadricornis Harris [amyntor Hibn.| _ (Entomological society of Philadelphia.

This is an introduced plant whose seeds were prob- ably mixed with the grass or clover seed used. It has been introduced into some of the western states where it is becoming a very trouble- some weed. It is 2 to 4 feet tall when well grown. It branches freely and when old and dry it is liable to be broken from its base and rolled over the ground like a tumble weed, the wind driving it about and scat- tering its seeds wherever it goes. REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST, 1898 643, Diplotaxis tenuifolia (Z.) DC. Erie basin, Brooklyn. August. G. D. Hulst. This is also an intro- duced plant found chiefly in waste places about cities. Viola ovata Wutt. Dry ground. Saugerties, Ulster co. and Sand Lake, Rensselaer co. May.

Dry sandy soil. Karner, Albany co. August and September. This is Solidago bicolor var. concolor'T. & G. in the Manual. It is a pretty goldenrod, similar in its general characters to .S. dzcolor, but easily distinguished from it by the yellow rays of the flower heads. In the smaller and less vigorous plants the panicle is long, narrow and spike- like, in the larger and more vigorous it is comparatively shorter and broader, its branches being longer. Aster hirsuticaulis Zzz/7/, Woods and roadsides. Charlotteville swamp, Schoharie co.; Wells, Hamilton co.; Northville, Fulton co. and Corning, Steuben co. August and September. ‘This species has generally been regarded as a variety of A. miser Nutt. or its equivalent 4. adiffusus Ait., but in Llustrated fiora it has been restored to specific rank. . Antennaria neglecta Greene Pastures and roadsides. Wynantskill and Sand Lake, Rensselaer co.;. Menands, Albany co. and New Paltz, Ulster co. May and June. This species may be distinguished from the more common 4. plantagint- Jota, with which it has till recently been confused, by its smaller and single veined basal leaves and by its racemed heads of flowers.

Intro- duced and occasionally escapes from cultivation. Salsola Tragus Z. Near Rochester and also along the railroad at Livonia salt mine about 30 miles south of Rochester. October. M.S. Baxter. The Russian thistle has probably been brought to these stations from the west. A few years ago it was introduced into North Dakota, and from this as a starting point it has been spreading in various directions. It has already acquired the reputation of being a most pernicious weed, ar.d it should meet with prompt destruction in every new locality in which it may appear. It is an annual plant and special care should be Mats fe Be . ‘ REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST, 1898 645 taken to destroy it before it has had time to mature a crop of seeds. If this is thoroughly done it should not be difficult to prevent its becoming established in new localities. It is often considered a variety of the sea- coast plant Salsola Kai, and mentioned under the name Salsola Kah var. Zragus. - Convallaria majalis Z. The lily of the valley grows wild farther south, but is frequently culti- vated in our state because of its delightful fragrance and early flowers. It sometimes escapes from cultivation here and grows spontaneously. spelen were found growing in a grove on the margin of a meadow at Menands. May. , Juncoides spicatum (Z.) Kuntze Top of Wallface mountain, Essex co. June. At present this is the only known station of this northern species in our state. It is found in considerable abundance along the brow of the precipice that forms the western wall of Indian pass. Why it should be here and not on other prominent peaks of the Adirondack mountains is not easily answered. Its spike-like panicle bears some resemblance to that of Carex teretiuscula. : Panicum Atlanticum Vash Pastures and dry open places. Fulton Chain. July. Dresden Station. » August. Our plant is a small or dwarf form 4 to 8 inches high. Its panicles are few-flowered, and its spikelets are scarcely one line long.

Geum macrophyllum Wid. The large leaved avens is a rare species in our state, but is quite plen- tiful in the eastern part of North Elba. It is abundant along the old road to Keene, about the head of Cascade lake and in low meadows between Freemans Home and Wood farm. Amelanchier oligocarpa (J&.) Roem. This Juneberry ascends to the open summitof Mt Marcy. It also descends to the valleys and occurs by the roadside about a half mile southeast of North Elba post office. Ribes prostratum JZ’ Zer. The flowers of the fetid currant are variable in color. They are pale greenish with slight tints of red or pink on some plants, purplish red on others. | Viburnum alnifolium JZarsf. Several years ago the superintendent of the Adirondack survey reported to me the occurrence in the Adirondack region of a hobble bush bearing pink flowers.” Finding no mention of such a variety in the botanies, and wishing if possible to procure specimens of it, the region where it had been seen was visited early in the season. A few plants were found in which the large exterior flowers of the cyme or cluster had a pinkish color, and occasionally some of the small interior flowers were similarly 652 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM colored. In every case the flowers seemed to be old or past their prime and some had fallen. ‘There was no indication that any of them had | just opened and the probability is that the pink or rosy hue was acquired by age. The tint was very delicate and was retained by none of the dried specimens though they were treated with great care. Solidago macrophylla Pursh. The large leaved goldenrod is one of the most common species in the more elevated parts of the Adirondack region. A small leaved variety of it occurs along the banks of the Ausable river on Wood farm. In it the leaves are mostly less than 3 inches long and less than r inch broad, The flower heads are also smaller than in the typical form, but they are sometimes more numerous.

A singular form of this very variable species was found on the trail between Adirondack lodge and Mt Marcy. Its station is about a half mile from the camp. The flower heads were destitute of rays and had a pecuhar bristly appearance, which was apparently due to an excessive development of the scales and pappus and a suppression of the florets. Ina patch of plants several feet across all the flower heads were of this _ character. The plants were otherwise well developed and apparently in a good healthy condition. Hieracium aurantiacum Z. A striking example of the rapidity with which the orange hawkweed is capable of increasing and spreading was seen along the Chateaugay rail- road. In June 1897 a few patches of this odious but showy weed were noticed along the railroad between Dannemora and Chazy lake stations. In June 1898 there was an almost continuous display of the brilliant blossoms of this weed between these two stations. The plant had also made its appearance in many places along the railroad between Chazy lake and Loon lake. In some places its rival pest, Mieracium praealtum, _ had also made its appearance and was displaying its yellow blossoms. Hieracium Marianum W7//d. Woods. Menands. June. Doellingeria umbellata (JZ//.) Wees A small form of this aster is plentiful along the banks of streams in North Elba. It is generally less than 2 feet high, has few heads of flowers and its leaves are disposed to arrange themselves in two rows, one on each side of the stem. ‘This is specially the case when the plants grow on the edge of the bank and are overshadowed by shrubs or small trees, which cause the plants to reach out over the water in their effort to obtain more sunlight. Circaea alpina JZ. This plant sometimes produces oblong white tubers by which it is renewed. Specimens showing this character were collected at New Russia, Essex co. and communicated by Mrs L. A.

Young trees of the red cedar sometimes retain their acicular leaves till they have attained considerable size. Trees 3 or 4 feet high were observed near Upper Jay and also near Dresden Station, on which all the leaves were acicular. . Juniperus nana Willd. Three distinct forms of the low juniper occur about Dresden Station. Of these the common form is frequent. A second form has its branches much more erect and is only occasional. It is recognizable at a glance. Both these forms are frequently 3 or 4 feet high. The third form is smaller and has more slender leaves than the others. It is rare. Juncus militaris Azge/. Specimens with the long filiform leaves of the rootstocks were obtained in Big Moose lake in July. The large emersed leaves and stems appear ~ to afford food for deer. Eriophorum Virginicum JZ. A very unusual form of the Virginian cotton grass was found near Big Moose station. In it the stems bore two clusters of spikelets, one terminal, as usual, the other smaller and lateral, 4 to 6 inches below the terminal one. Carex scirpoidea J/x. This rare sedge whose range extends northward to Greenland occurs. on Wallface mountain. It varies from 6 to 12 inches or more in hight and its spike is rarely branched at the base. Danthonia compressa Aust. This grass is abundant about Fulton Chain. It usually grows in thin woods or along lumber roads in woods, but here it was found growing freely in light sandy soil in open places where it is exposed to the full rays of the sun during the whole day. In such places it forms tufts and is apparently more stout and vigorous than in partly shaded places. REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST, 1898 655 Scolopendrium Scolopendrium (Z.) Karsz. The discovery of a new station for this rare fern has been published. It is in a rayine near Perryville, Madison co., and is not far from the Chittenango Falls locality. It is said that the original New York station, where it was found many years- ago by Pursh, has been destroyed and the fern is no longer there. Itis to be hoped that this new locality for it will long escape such a fate. Sphagnum Pylaesii Zrid. On the summits of the high peaks of the Adirondack mountains this moss overspreads the wet surface of bare rocks, lying prostrate as if too weak to stand erect.

This species was described and published in 23d report, D. 117, and its resemblance to Lactarius hygrophoroides B. & C. was recognized. In 38th report, p. 129 it was regarded as a form of that species and united with it. In taking this view of the case itis necessary to suppose that the very brief description of Z. hygrophoroides was founded on unusually small specimens and was also somewhat faulty. I have neverbeen able to find - a single specimen of our species with a pulverulent pileus, nor can the lamellae be correctly described as decurrent, thoughthey are sometimes subdecurrent. In SyMoge the two plants are kept distinct and this seems to be the best course to pursue till we can be more certain of the unity of the species. | Another species has been described under the name Lactarius Calceo- lus Berk. ‘This also has many points of agreement with our plant, but differs in others. Its pileus is described as smooth and the color of it and the stem is said to be brown buff. Its lamellae are very few, not exceeding 20, and are forked near the edge. These characters are not shown by any specimens of our plant that have come under my notice. Boletus Ravenelii 2. & C. The flesh of this beautiful species has a very acrid taste.

Its solid fleshy body may vary in length from 2 inches to 8 inches. The teeth or spines may be 2 lines or 2 inches long, stout or slender simple or branched, and the color which is usually white may be tinged with yellow or pink. The essential character of the species is a solid fleshy body with short, projecting branches bearing numerous simple or branched spines of unequal length. REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST, 1898 657 F BEANS OF HE, SUMMIT OF MT MARCY Mt Marcy is the highest mountain in the state, with an altitude of | 5344 ft above the sea, and is in the center of a very rugged, mountainous region, where high peaks separated by deep and narrow valleys rise on all sides. From its summit an observer may look on mountain scenery - in every direction, and obtain viéws unsurpassed in beauty and grandeur. A visit to this lofty station necessitates a tiresome walk of six or seven miles through the woods over a rough trail and up some steep acclivities. But the attractions of the place, the magnificent views it affords and the richness of its flora bring many visitors, and few return without feeling well rewarded for the labor and expense incurred. The open summit, the part above the timber line, may be compared to an ellipse whose long axis lies in a northeast and southwest direction, but whose circumference is quite irregular. It may be called treeless, but a few species of trees are found within its Jimits. They do not however attain the size nor even the shape of trees of the same species below the timber line. They have a mere shrub-like development, with small leaves, wide-spreading crooked branches and a starved and straggling appearance. The timber line is well marked in some places by abrupt precipices, at the base of which the forest suddenly terminates. In other places the declivity is less abrupt and no definite line marks the tree limit. The trees gradually become smaller as the altitude increases, till they are mere shrubs in size or cease entirely. On the eastern slope there are radiating ridges with interven- ing depressions in which the small balsam firs ascend almost to the sum- mit, As might be expected, the northern and western slopes present the greatest expanse of open surface. But even here are limited patches of small balsam firs in depressions or where some sheltering ledge gives partial protection from fierce winds. | Two small, marshy areas, worthy of special notice, form a part of the open summit. One is a decided depression’in the northeast slope. A rugged cliff lies on one side of it and a rocky knob onthe other. Pos- sibly a trap dike may have afforded the necessary conditions for its existence. The trail from the top of the mountain to Adirondack lodge passes through it. Its surface is level, soft and marshy, Several species of marsh plants grow here, including three or four sedges not found elsewhere on the open summit. The small cranberry and peat mosses are here, and here the thirsty tourist can find water to drink. 658 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM The other is on the eastern slope and is much nearer the top of the mountain. It is at the head of a ravine or depression between two ridges that extend far down the slope. Its water supply is not abundant. Indeed it is scarcely visible and the surface is not level, so that the presence of marshy ground and marsh plants here may at first seem mysterious. The plants that grow here are mostly small and unthrifty and the diminutive balsam firs that grow on three sides of this space avoid its marshy area completely. The water necessary to maintain the’ character of the place is probably supplied in part by the gradual melt- ing of the snow and ice that accumulate during the winter under the massive boulders and in the crevices of the rocks above. This water would be very cold and would maintain a low temperature in the soil through which it percolates. The location of the place is such that the direct rays of the sun can not reach it during a considerable part of the afternoon. Only plants capable of enduring cold and shade could thrive in such a place. During the winter a vast amount of snow accumulates, for the prevailing north and west winds blow it from the higher ground and pile it in this sheltered nook till it is many feet deep. It remains here in the warm season longer than in any other place on the summit. In 1886, the summit of. the mountain was visited June 1o. A large part of this sloping marsh was yet covered by a huge snow bank, though the rest of the summit was bare. It is easy to see how the winter is pro- longed and the summer shortened in such a spot as this, and such a modification of the growing season must have some influence on the plants of the place. Two sedges, a sundew and arush are found here that I have not seen growing elsewhere on the mountain. Every botanist who visits the summit of Mt Marcy should examine these two marshy spots. They are cold botanical gardens of natural formation, full of interest and suggestive of thought. This mountain summit affords a striking object lesson in the formation of soil and the development of vegetation. It is not difficult to imagine that there was a time when the summit of Mt Marcy was a bare rock with neither soil nor plant visible. The thin, heathy soil that now covers much of the surface gives no evidence of having been brought there from other sources, but on the other hand it does suggest the thought that it has been made on the spot, not by the action of sudden or violent agencies so much as by the action of slow and quiet in- fluences continued for ages. ‘“O! these mosses and lichens have made — this soil.” This was the first utterance of an esteemed and observant REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST, 1898 659 friend when for the first time his eyes rested on the open summit of the mountain as he stood upon the brow of the precipice which he had just climbed and which till that moment had kept the suggestive sight from his view. It does not need an extended examination to confirm the truth of the assertion so confidently made_at first sight. Mosses and lichens at the present time are showing that they can grow on the bare surface of rocks. The boulders of the summit are variegated by the different colors of the lichens growing on their hard and almost naked surfaces. If we attempt to chip off a specimen we sometimes find the rock beneath the lichen more soft and scaly than elsewhere. Its pres- ence seems in some way to have aided in the softening and disinte- gration of the rock. If we pluck a tuft of moss from the rock we find the lower part of the interspaces of the stems and leaves filled with dirt and sand, apparently composed of particles of disintegrated rock mingled with the decomposed remains of stems and leaves. of mosses. This process of growth and decay of organic matter and the disintegration of inorganic matter aided by the action of the ele- ments would in due time furnish sufficient soil to support the growth of small herbaceous plants. These in turn by their growth and decay would aid in increasing the quantity of soil covering the rocks till there would be sufficient to permit the growth of larger herbs and finally of shrubs and small trees. In this condition we now find the summit of Mt Marcy. The soil in most places is but a few inches deep and its appearance and texture indicate a large percentage of humus. This and other conditions due to the altitude of the place must neces- sarily have some influence in determining the character of the plants that grow there. Only plants of the most hardy character could endure a climate in which frost occurs in every month of the year. No tree could grow many feet high without being overturned or broken down when exposed to such fierce winds as sweep over this mountain. A few plants grow here which grow no where else in the state except on the top of other mountains high enough to have open summits. Some grow here which grow also at lower altitudes, but they are so changed by their unfavor- able location that they scarcely appear to belong to the same species. The balsam fir of the valleys is a most beautiful and symmetrical tree, but here it is without symmetry, a low shrub-like growth with long crooked branches, often covered with lichens and closely interlocked with those of neighboring trees. The branches are sometimes nearly as 660 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM long as the trunk. The trees are from 1 to 6 feet high. In the de- pressions they are too tall to be disregarded in our rambles and their | branches are too low and too closely interlocked to admit an easy passage through the almost impenetrable thickets they form. The little scrubby spruces scarcely venture to grow in an upright position. They spread over the ground in a half prostrate way as if in imitation of the low juniper or the ground hemlock. ‘The season for plant growth and activity is so short that the annual elongation of their stems and branches is scarcely more than 1 or 2 inches. The number of plants growing here that in lower stations are found in marshes and wet places is remarkable. Several species of peat moss, most of the sedges, blue joint grass, the cranberry, the swamp laurel, leather leaf and Labrador tea are examples of thiskind. Showers are fre- quent, the top of the mountain is often capped by clouds, the low tem- perature retards evaporation, the mosses hold back the water and the abundant humus in the soil is also retentive of moisture. All these unite in producing conditions favorable to the growth of marsh plants. The number of annual plants is very small. Most of the flowering plants are either perennial herbs or plants with woody stems. The mosses and lichens are mostly perennial. Some of the conditions inci- dent to the locality must be unfavorable to the growth and persistency of annual plants. The character of the flora is subject to change. Some species disap- pear, others appear. About 60 years ago the moss plant, Casszope hypnoides, was growing here in a sheltered depression, but in none of my visits to this place have I been able to find it. In my early visits the tall white bog orchis was here, but it has not been seen in any of my recent visits. It is very probable that both these plants are no longer inhabitants of this station. In my last visit a small patch of timothy grass, Phleum pratense, was found growing on the very top of the moun- tain near the signal station. It must be a recent introduction, for it could not have escaped notice in such a conspicuous place if it had been there at the time of my previous visits. Some plants are apparently more abundant now than at my earlier visits. Then the scrub birch was seen » in small quantity and appeared to be in danger of extinction. Now it is quite plentiful and apparently spreading. It is abundant about the bor- ders of the sloping marsh mentioned on a preceding page. Many of the species of flowering plants growing here are such as blossom early in the season. The sweet white violet, oblong fruited * Ae: Sap ae Mey S REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST, 1898 661 Juneberry, fetid currant, mountain fly honeysuckle, bluets, leather leaf swamp laurel, ,Lapland rosebay, Lapland diapensia, scrub birch, green alder, bearberry willow, tufted club rush and alpine holy grass are examples of this kind. All these may be found in flower in June and some of them early in the month, soon after the snow has disappeared. On June to, a few feet below the eastern margin of the snow bank still remaining at the upper end of the sloping marsh, the little bluets, Floustonia coerulea, had commenced its growth.
