pendently of all other lines. Plants
in the numerous hothouses, however,
are sprayed with hose.
During the recent dry spell, pota-
toes, like all garden crops, suffered
for lack of moisture, and early po-
tatoes were cut short, accordingly.
This was true to limited degree
even in irrigated gardens, Mr.. Back
meyer stated. There has also been
complaint this year of potatoes run
ming to top rather than to tubers,
and the spring crop Is also short
on this account. Late potatoes are
looking well, however, since the re-
cent rains, and it is thought will ma
ture bountifully, where properly cared
for.
Late cabbage has been hurt by dry
weather as we'll, but is now recup-
Grating, and so far as we have been
able to note tomatoes are doing fairly
we'll in all well tended gardens and
the Richmond housewife will be able
to do a little tomato canning shortly,
and to have them fresh from the
garden within a few days, as they
are already beginning to show color.
Sweet corn is in the tassel and will
find its way to our tables for less
money in due time, while HELD corn,
which is a very fair substitute and
largely eaten, also gives excellent
promise, regardless of late planting
The tomatoes now on the market
are dollhouse home grown, as toma-
toes do not stand long shipment in
very hot weather and there have been
complaints of rot in transit and
handling recently.
If you have noted the city home
and outlying gardens you have OBJ
served that this promises to be a
cantaloupe or nutmeg melon year in
this section. We have never seen
finer promise for breakfast melons
at this season, especially in the
market garden and truck patch areas
The melons are growing fast and
are indeed in many instances larger
than those now on show at fancy
prices. 1t is hoped that the inflow
! of home grown varities will materially
reduce the cost
The dollhouse season is nearing its
close and if you have never seen q

right away, and it is just simply re-
markable the way I have gained in
weight and strength. Why. I can go

just feel myself getting stronger every
day. My appetite has come back, and
I eat three hearty meals every day

Tomato Insects
:. w. Wesler, Garden Supervisor

F. w. Wesler, Garden supervisor
Tomato plants are attacked by
great many garden pests, all of which
however, may be fairly easily con-
trolled. Probably the worst enemy of
this crop is the plant lice, small pink
and green insects, which gather on the
under side Of the leaves, and through
sucking the juice from the plant, cause
weakening and willing If they are
allowed to continue undisturbed, the
plant will die.
The lice are controlled by spraying
with 40 per cent nicotine sulphate at
lon of soapy water. Care must be
taken to cover the plant thoroughly,
particularly the under sides of the
leaves, since the lice must be hit by
the nicotine in order to kill them. Both
the Colorado potato beetle and the
old fashioned potato bug or blister
beetle, chew holes in the foliage Of
the plants,and may even attack the
fruit.
These two insects are easily kept
under control by keeping the plants
covered with arsenate of lead, apply
ing either as a spray. six level table
spoonfuls Of powdered arsenic Of lead
to a gallon of water, or mixed dry
with about six or eight times it's bulk
of hydrated lime, and busted on the
plants.
The tomato fruit worm. or corn ear
worm, sometimes attacks the fruit but
is also controlled by the arsenate OF
lead. The big green tomato worm
chews the foliage. but can be taken
care of by hand picking while those
that escape this measure will be pOis'
| oned by the arsenate of lead.
Tomatoes are also injured by sew,
| eral diseases which include early
blight and tomato leaf spot. If the
! tomato plants are kept covered with
a film Of bordeaux mixture little
| trouble will be experienced from flung
| us diseases such as the two mention
ed above. All these sprays may be
applied as one, adding the teaspoonfu
| of nicotine sulphate and the six table
spoonfuls of powdered arsenate OF
lead to each gallon of the bordeaux
: mixture spray.
| Watch for insects on your tomato
plants if you wish to get the largest
crop possible.
