Lookout for the plant pest now. The
various insects seem to increase with
Encouraging rapidity at this season. and
OF the growing plants. There are two
ways of keeping the aphis down, one
is Swinging. and the other is fumigation.
In either cases tobacco should be used.
If you fumigats, put the plants in a
small, tight room possible where the
smoke can be confined until 1t has done
effectual work. II such a room is not
convenient, a large dry goods box. over
whose cracks paper has been pasted.
win answer very well. ESen a barrel
will do very wen. but IL there are many
plants to be frrnigated this will be a
slow and tedious process Tobacco leaves
and stems. which can be procured very
cheaply from the florist or a cigar
mandatory Will be preferable TO the
smoking tobacco bought at the store.
Put a quantity 81. ashes in a large iron
kettle, and over them a layer of live
Goals. Danpen the tobacco stems be-
fore placing or the Goals. as 1t will make
a denser smoke when in that condi-
ton than when dry; and will burn longer
Put on enough to fill the room with a
thick smoke. Let the plants remain in
it until the insects are supplied. and then
give the plants a through Swinging.
-.
1t is a good plan to experiment with
a few plants at first. Put them in the
fumigating box or room and start the
smoke, and watch developments. In a
short time it will be possible to tell how
much smoke is required. and how long
in it.
This fumigating is only for extreme
measures, however, when the plants
have been neglected. and the insects
have gained a foothold; and when it is
necessary to resort to Afumigation, to-
bacco stems should always be used in
preference to the sulphur so often rec
commended. But If the fumigating pro-
cess is objected i. because of its un-
pleasant features If the the insects are
