Sabadilla Controls The Harlequin Bug Clemson, July 30. — Collard growers will welcome the an nouncement that Sabadilla, a promising new control material for the harlequin bug, appears ready for public use. W. C. Net tles, extension entomologist, re ports that Sabadilla has been used on a few collard patches through out the state and the reaction seems good. The harlqeuin bug in the past has been considered uncontrolla ble, except just before the war when a special type of pyre thrum was available. Sabadilla is a seed which grows on a lily-like plant in the areas surrounding the Caribbean Sea. The insecticidal properties of Sabadilla have been known since the sixteenth century and the ma terial has been used to some ex tent for louse control through the years. Recent Universiyt of Wisconsin research has shown how to activ ate the new seed—previously only the seed which had aged would produce results. Sabadilla dust was not poisonous to rats in tests run under supervision of the Uni versity of Wisconsin medical school. Sabadilla causes sneezing and those in contact with the dust should wear a mask. In dusting a small patch of collards it is easy to stay out of way of the dust. Much remains to be known a- bout Sabadilla concentrations and the number of applications nec essary. It has been used as a 20 per cent dust on the harlequin bug with good results in this state. Some - experimenters re port control of squash bug, chinch bug, cabbage worm, and cattle lice. Limited observations made by Mr. Nettles indicate control of the southern green stink bug, a pest of tomatoes, beans, cowpeas, and other crpos in the southern part of the state.
