MIR. Thomas B. Symons, acting
entomlogist, has issued 4 circular caution
ing growers to be on the watch for the
melon louise which last year was almost |
disastrous to many of the water melon
crops. He recommends that as soon as
the vines get four or six leaves they |
should be carefully and frequently ex-
amined for the louise and that the first |
appearance of the winged female they |
hide. This is accomplished by covering |
the young vines with tight boxes or
other covers twelve to eighteen inches in
diameter, the same in length, and intro
ducing under each box vessel contain
ing one or more teaspoonsful OF the |
liquid. One tcaspoonful should he |
allowed for every cubic foot of space |
under the cover, and this will easily de-
stroy the vermin in three quarters of an
hour. Carbon bisulphide is colorless |
liquid with disagreeable odor, and the
vapor is very poisonous to animal life.
There is no danger however, from inhal- |
ing small quantities in the open air.
