The Mexican bean beetle is a busy I fellow who will reduce the leaves of: all varieites of beans to, mere skele tons if he’s left undisturbed. The beetle itself is a bronze-winged spot ted bug. slightly larger than the friendly and familiar "lady bug." Be careful not to confuse these two in sects because lady bugs are more than welcome in the garden. The bean beetle produces a veritable plague of fuzzy yellow larvae that eat the leaves. Dust with rotenone or; a combination of rotenone and sul phur. While the plants are in blos som magnesium arsenate can be used. Cutworms come next on the list of 1 common garden pests. They work at,, the surface of the ground or just be low it and chew thorugh the stems of tender transplants such as toma toes. Guard against them, using card board collars around small plants. If| they are numerous, bait for them by sprinkling over the ground at night • lumps of poisoned paste made of bran or cornflakes, molasses and paris green or arsenate of lead. If! you are afraid that pets may find the 1 poisonous bait, cover it with boards \ weighted down with -heayt st ncs. ‘ under the boards. Birth Announcement with a gift.
