Morgan, county agen^ who states that he is receiving many calls every day regarding the identification and methods con trol of the more common garden and fruit insects commonly foun;. in McCormick county. For thL reason, Mr. Morgan discusses be low the methods of control or these insects. N THE MEXICAN BEAN BEETLE has become as bad a pest to the bean crop as the boll weevil is to the cotton crop, and the past two years have taught us that we must fight the bean beetle if we axe go eat anything but canned beans. Spray the bean vines on the un der side of the leaves with the fol lowing mixture: Magnesium Arsenate __ 1 table spoonful. Water 1 gallon Or dust the vines on the under side of the leaves with the follow ing: Magnesium Arsenate 1 lb. Slaked Lime 3 lbs. For spraying, use an ordinary spray pump with the nozzle turn ed up. For dusting, use a boll weevil hand duster with the nozzle turned up. If you do not put the spray or dust on the underside of the leaves, you might as well stay out of the bean patch for all the good you will do. Magnesium ar senate will be on sale at McCor mick throughout the season. THE STRIPED CUCUMBER BEETLE.—A small yello?/ and black striped beetle, which is doing a lot of damage on cucumber, squash, and melon plants in the county at this time. To control, spray with nicotine sulphate spray, or blackleaf 40, according to direc tions on package. CABBAGE WORMS are getting more than their share of the cab bage crop this year. Past the plants and small heads with a mixture of one part calcium ar senate to four or five parts slak ed lime. PLANT LICE AND THRIPS email dark to light greenish lice sucking the life out of the tender stem- ends of many plants, may be con trolled by spraying with Blackleaf 40 according to directions on pack age. S . TOMATO WORMS eating holes in the tomatoes will soon be giv ing a lot of trouble. Spray toma to plants with a mixture of 1-4. lb. arsenate of lead, 1-2 lb. lime and 6 gallons of water, as soon as you see signs of the worm. CUTWORMS may be disposed of by scattering around in the gard en a mixture made as follows: Bran 3 lbs. Calcium Arsenate._3 tablespoonfuls Molasses 1 quart Water 1-2 gallon Do not let chickens get to this mixture, or run in garden after it has been scattered. POTATO BUGS won’t last long if you dust the plants with a mix ture of one part calcium arsenate and four or five parts lime. HARLEQUIN BUGS or calico beetles, gaudy colored bugs suck ing the life out of cabbage, ool- lards, and other plants may be controlled by using a common method known as hand picking. Pick them off and destroy them. [ Keep a supply of dust and spxay materials on hand and use them when necessary. If we should eat home-grown vegetables and fruits we must fight for them. James F.
