Sprinkle the plants with a strong infusion of elder leaves; that of hops and of walnut leaves is likewise re- commended; or,suspend a diamond-form- ed piece of white paper, shingle, or other piece of wood, by thread, tied to the end of stick in the ground at small distance from the hill, so that the paper shall hang directly over the hill and near the plants. The air, by constantly vibrating the paper or shingle, will have tendency to prevent insects from alighting on the plants. The surest way however, is to enclose the hills with frames covered with gause, or other cloth of light texture.
