Extract

The caterpillars known under the common name of “woolly bears” belong to the family of Arctians, and most of the species in the moth state are very pretty objects. The commonest of all the species is Spilosoma virginica, a pure white moth which appears on the wing in May, when it deposits its clusters of round yellow eggs on the under side of the leaves of many plants.
