BUD WORM OF CORN
Is A SERIOUS PEST
Larva of IL Spotted Cucumber
Beetle Kills Much Bottom
Lamb Corn.

Clemson College-The bud worm OF
corn, a serious pest to bottomland
corn, in South Carolina is the larva or
grub Of our common twelve spotted
cucumber beetle. This beetle or pa
rent may be found at the present time
feeding upon small grain in the fields,
fruit blooms about the orchard, or on
almost any other green vegetation
found about the farm.
The larva or grub confines its ac-
tivity to corn and various grasses
found growing in low moist lands,
commonly known as bottom lands.
The eggs are laid by the parent beetle
from about the first Of March to the
middle Of April. Corn planted on low
lands during the egg laying period IS
very often seriously damaged and
sometimes completely destroyed by
this insect. After the corn has reach
ed a height Of about ten inches no
serious injury occurs.
Remedial Measures.
AVOID planning DOLlOm lduuo luAeoteu
with bud worms until about two-thirds
Of the grubs have reached the
quiescent period. The planting dates
for various sections Of the state has
been carefully marked out and are fol-
lowed hy many of our farmers. They
are as follows:
For lower South Carolina plant after
May 5th.
For middle South Carolina, plant
one week later. .
For upper South Carolina or the
Piedmont region, plant two weeks Ia
ter or about May the 18th.
By carefully observing the planting
dates a stand of corn may be secured
while the grubs of the first genera
tion are sleeping in the soil, then be-
fore the second generation comes,
the corn is too large to be seriously
injured.

Assistant Entomologist,

SWEET POTATO DISEASES
Some Timely Pointers on the Sweet
Potato Diseases Which Should Be
Kept in Mind at Bedding Time.

Clemson College.-As the time ap-
proaches for bedding sweet potatoes
the wav in which some Of the more
troublesome of the sweet potato dis
eases get into the field and spread
should be kept in mind.
Black rot of sweet potato which Is
probably the most common OF the
sweet potato diseases lives over Win
ter on the potatoes in the form OF
small black or dark colored blotches
or spots on the surface. Where pota-
toes affected with this trouble are used
for seed the disease gets into the
sprouts that come from these and is
carried directly into the field. Here
the disease attacks the roots and the
potatoes and after causing consider.
able damage is brought back again
into the banks or storage houses the
next fall. Potatoes used for seed
should be free from this disease.
There are several other diseases OF
sweet potatoes that can be detected
on the seed and that spread in exactly
the same way that the black rot does.
In picking out potatoes for seed these
should be looked for and wherever
found the seed affected with them
should be discarded or II clean seed
cannot be secured they should be
treated with formalin solution as indi-
Gated above. These diseases live on
the tubers and roots but do not at
tack the vines so where potatoes are
grown later in the season from cut
tings from vines the disease would
not be present This is the reason
why potatoes grown from vines keep
better than those grown from slips. 1t
Is we'll to grow seed potatoes for next
year in this way from cuttings made
from the -yinas &c..

FALL PLANTING OF ROSES
BY PRISCILLA PAX =

Fall planting of roses may be done
IN the latter part of October or early
in November, or even as late as the
middle of December. with excellent re-
suits
Roses planted in the fall. however
should be set deep and banked well
with earth just before the ground
freezes. 1t is also we'll to cover the
soil about the plants with manure
which should not be removed until the
middle of April. or until all danger
from severe frost is over whereupon
this dressing may be forked under.
When the rose plants are received
from the nurseryman they should be
unpacked as soon as they come to
hand. Thereupon the tops and roots
should be well sprinkled with water,
after which they should be covered
with bagging and placed in shaded
spot until ready to plant.
II the ground is not prepared when
the plants arrive. il is advisable to put
them in shallow trench and cover the
roots with loose soil until the ground
can be put into proper condition.
The enrichment of the soil, however.
should not only be made ut the time og
the preparation of the bed before plant
ing, but in the spring of every year,
for with such attention bountiful
supply of flowers may be expected
every season.
When planting, spread the roots out
carefully and do not cross them or
crowd them. They should be placed
arranged, as far as possible, in their
natural position.
When the roots are covered the
earth should be firmly pressed down
upon them. particularly around the
stem. If manure is put in the bottom
of the hole 1t should not be allowed 10

have become thoroughly established.
If the ground is wet when the plants
are received it is better to- postpone
the planting, as the soil is Liable to
become baked and the safety of the
plants may be thus endangered
During a dry season the rose re
quires plenty of water, and frequently
soaking the bed with liquid manure

also be conserved by abundant euiIiya-
