Two hundred oats plants were examined on and near the nests of ants containing root-lice, but not a louse was found upon them. Here again smartweeds near the nests of ants were withered and the roots were dead or actually gone. Cavities and gangways had been made by the ants beside the roo...ts of these weeds.
