Due to war conditions Rotenone is likely to become scarce. Cryolite is recommended as a substitution. It should not be used on snap beans after pods be gin to form, to avoid the harmful residue. These mixtures are usual ly found with local seedmen, prop erty diluted for use. Rotenone is a non-poisonous insecticide. Spray with 1 1-2 pounds of un diluted derris dust to 50 gallons of water as often as needed, or 3 pounds of undiluted Cryolite to 50 gallons of water. Tomato Fruit Worm: Apply poi son bait when the first fruit sets and at weekly intervals until four applications have been made. Mix bait with 9 pounds of corn meal and one pound of calcium arsen ate and scatter by hand lightly over the foliage. This should be sufficient for a home garden. If you do not have a copy of Bulletin 102, “Garden and Truck Crop Insects,” please write at once for your copy. Last Call For A Victory Garden Let it not be said that there is one on your farm or in your neighborhood who has not planted vegetbales for victory. It is not too late to plant the following veg etables: Okra, Sweet potatoes, Tomatoes, Roasting ear corn, Edible cowpeas, Peanuts. Practically all the above require late spraying and are very resist ant to diseases and insects. Ail of these vegetables adapt them selves to field culture and usually produce in abundance. Hints By mulching tomato plants with straw, leaves, or litter, moisture will be conserved, resulting in a longer fruiting season. Deep planted tomato plants will stand the drought much better. Make Successive Plantings Of: Corn — Stowell’s Evergreen, Country Gentleman. Beans — (Snap) (bunch) — Bountiful and Stringless Green Pod. ■ Beans — (Pole) — Kentucky Wonder and McCaslan. Transplant: Tomatoes, sweet potatoes, egg plant and pepper. Make plantings of seed for later transplanting for the fall and win ter crop. Collard: Georgia or Georgia Southern is a good variety. One ounce of seed gives about 1,500 plants. Sow in early June for fall crop. 0 Cabbage: Succession and Late Flat Dutch are good varieties. One ounce of seed gives about 1,500 plants. Sow seed in June and early July for late fall and winter. Tomatoes: Marglobe (wilt re sistant). One ounce of seed gives about 1,500-2,000 plants. Sow seed now for transplanting in July.
