INSECTS IN THE
WINDOW GARDEN
Warfare Against Plant Enemies
Must Be Made for EX-
termination

Look out for the insects in the win
dow garden. If any are found-as
quite likely there will be-wage
prompt and aggressive warfare
against them.
Probably the aphis will show up
most prominently. | used to dread
this pest more than all others, because
of the rapidity with which he breeds.
Now | find it an easy matter to
keep him under control. I do this by
the use of the extract of tobacco. This
extract is very strong and a little of
it goes good ways.
A pint of it costs about $3.50, but it
will last the owner of a good-sized
window garden for years, because a
spoonful of it viii be sufficient for a
ten-quart can of water. and this will
be enough to spray forty or fifty plants
thoroughly
Ii is sure death to every aphide 1t
comes in contact with. 1t is much
cheaper in the long run, than tobacco
for fumigation. and is much pleasanter
to use, as it gives off but little odor,
and this is soon dissipated. while to-
bacco smoke leaves its stale stencil
behind it for days, and clings TO every
thing in the house.
Every owner OF window garden
should provide herself with good
sprayer. The small bulb atomizers,
operated by squeezing. are Of little
practical use.
Better invest your money in such a
sprayer as the small gardener uses, in
which the atomizer and reservoir are
connected in such manner as to
make compact little implement. very
easy to operate, and capable of throw
ing a small stream or spray of any de-
gree of fineness as you may elect.
With a sprayer of this kind it is an
easy matter to give your plants a
treatment once a week, and that
ought to be enough to keep them free
from aphides.
In our overheated, dry-atmosphered
living rooms the red spider is sure TO
do more or less damage unless some
thing Is done to'keep 1t in check. None
of the emissions, tobacco extracts or
other applications advised for use in
fighting plant enemies are OF any use
here.
A correspondent asks II good plants
can be grown in tin cans Certainly.
