SIR, I AM much pleased with your frequent recurrence to subjects of utility in rural economies, and hope you will continue to give us information on these subjects from time to time. I am satisfied that your account of the gooseberry caterpillar is correct, and that it may be rendered harmlefs at least, if it cannot be extirpated by the measures you recommend; for I have followed it exactly, and am fully sensible of the benefit I have already derived from it. I have al^o tried what you recommen...d respecting slugs, which have done me unspeakable damage this season; but though I have destroyed immense numbers within the last month, they are still so numerous that I begin to doubt if I shall be able ultimately to extirpate them, On Diseases of the Gooseberry Bush. 269 but I shall persevere. A friend advised me to try to get a parcel of sea gulls and put them into my garden, which is walled round ; for he says the gulls touch no sort of vegetable, and as they do not scrape with their feet, living entirely upon slugs and other soft insects, I am determined to try them, and have already taken measures to procure some of them.
