Spray with solution made of % ounce of Arsenate Lead powder, 1 inch cube of laundry soap, 1 gallon water. The arsenate of lead kills the worms, while the soap aids to make the lead stick to the plant and aids to destroy some of the eggs of the pest. Since the cabbage head grows from the inside^ there is no danger in the us? of this treatment, however, for sa:cety, stop using the spray three weeks before harvest of the cabbage. If the cabbages are sprayed now, there will be very few worms later on in the season. 'Fire Sale.
