Protecting Melons from Insects.

The time Of the appearance Of plant
lice upon melons varies with the To-
cality and the season. They do not
confne their attacks to the cucurbs,
but have very wide range. This kind
of louise has been found feeding upon
no less than &c varieties of plants, in
Guiding fruits, cotton, strawberry,
purslane, shepherds purse, pepper
grass, dock, burdock, dandelion, pig
weed, plantain, chickweed, red clover
and others. AS a rule, when melon
vines have two or more leaves, one can
begin to look for the pest By a
little careful observation the winged
lice will be seen on the under side OF
the leaves, and a few days later they
will be surrounded by a colony OF
young wing1ess lice. The female may
fly to other plants near by and start
new colony.
The young are born alive, and when
about a week old they begin to repro
duce. At this time their presence be-
gins to be more noticed by the shrink
ing and shriveling of the leaves, from
which they are sucking the juices

remedy. It is foul-smelling liquid

is estimated as being about 30 cents

Ample testimony Of the additional
returns gained by the addition of
this small amount to the expense &C

where in the next field to where the
irrigation has been installed is corn

same time as that which has had the

about four inches high in contrast
with its more fortunate neighbor,
which is two feet high and growing

is being grown on the farm, as we'll as
watermelons and a supply of sweet
p alto vines, to be set out in the field
as early as the weather conditions will
tolerate.
Several fields have been planted in
both sugar and Japanese cane, the ma
jority Of which is ratooning this year
for the first time, and the latter of
which is principally used for fodder
after being run through the shredder.
In addition to full line of other

strict accounts are kept of the ex-

For this reason the DeSoto farm
becomes a most valuable institution,
not only to its owners, but to the en-
tire section of South Florida, demon

| through their lance-llke beaks. If left
undisturbed on the vine, the plant soon
shrivels and dies and the lice fly or are
carried by ants to their hills. From
these points the lice spread, and in a
couple OF weeks they may cover sew
eral acres. After midsummer winged
forms are found everywhere through
out the field. AS soon as the plants be-
come dry, migration begins, that is,
they fly to other fields, where the
plants are in better condition This
accounts for the sudden swoop upon
certain patches. Very late in the sea-
son the sexual forms appear and the
eggs are deposited upon various plants,
where they remain over winter and
hatch the following spring. These
produce living young, which soon be-
come winged and take flight in the
melon fields. Thus the life history is
briefly reviewed
Remedies Suggested.
From the fact that the pest has so
many favorable food plants on which
to deposit it's eggs for winter, clean
cultivation must be urged. Fields
should be kept clean from weeds. II
the ground for any reason should be
kept covered, a grain or grass crop
should be used Too much attention
cannot be paid to fence corners and the
roadway. A space few feet wide be-
tween a roadbed and the fence grown
up with weeds would winter enough
lice to destroy all the melons in a ten
acre field adjoining it. The lice do not
make long flights, and the more COM
plete1y patch is isolated from weedy
grounds or fields the better. The lice
float rather than fly and are carried
some distance by strong winds. An
early, sunny and rather dry spring is
favorable to them. If it is cold, rather
wet and blustery, the chances are that
the lice will not be so destructive.
D11gent, careful searching as soon as
the plants are started will reveal the
points where they have gained foot
hold.
AS soon as colony is found, it
should be destroyed by either plucking
the leaf and destroying it by burning
or burying, or spraying it with kero-
sene emulsion, diluted with water from
II to Is times. For this purpose a
good spray pump with a nozzle for
under spraying should be used. Care
should be taken that every colony is
thoroughly drenched. To make kero-
sene emulsion, take one-half pound

ests or pleasure desires bring them

one of the best family hotels in the
state, but his record as a practical
farmer is not SO widespread, through
the visitor to the DeSoto farm
owned jointly by Mr. Parker and Mrs
Martha w. Pollica, will find that he/
as well qualified to manage a farm on
up-to-date principles as to preside over
the arrangements of hotel
The DeSoto farm, which is located
on the Magdalene road only a short
distance from the city limits of West
Tampa, comprises seventy-hve acres,
fifty of which together with the res
idence and farm buildings are on the
west side of the road, while the re-
naming twenty-five acres lie between
; the road and the river. The lower
half of this last mentioned piece oil
land is used for a pasture, for which
it is admirably adapted, the question
of water supply one Of the most i'm
portant in connection with a pasture,
being solved by the fact that the riv-
er, the water in which is fresh at this
point, flows along the whole western
side of the property.

use of the two houses, the barns and
cattle troughs, the latter being filled
with automatic valves SO that they
are always full, drives the same COM
modify directly into the pipes of the
irrigation plant, runs the grindstone
and shredder, and in cane grinding
season performs a like duty for the
four horsepower cane mill, with which
the farm is equipped. The pump with
which the, farm is provided has two
inch suction and two inch discharge to
the pipes with which three acres Of the
farm are irrigated.
Two-thirds of this tract are water
ed by the Skinner system, an exper-
iment having been tried with anoth-
er system on the remaining acre,
though any further increase in the
size Of the area irrigated will be with
the Skinner system.
In the latter system the water is
conveyed by pipes forty-one feet apart,
which are laid on eight foot posts and
by the handling of lever it is possible
to direct the streams of water in any
direction until the whole intervening
space has been thoroughly saturated.
In the other system the water is
distributed from upright standards
at intervals in the pipes, which are al
so placed eight feet above the ground,
but only thirty feet apart. By this
system the same amout of water is
Z more rapidly distributed, the differ
ence between the two systems being
fairly represented by contrasting a
