HOW TO CONTROL PLANT LICE

Almost every kind Of plant is trou-.
.bled by plant lice, according to A. F.
Yeager Of the North Dakota Agricul-
tural College. He states that they are
small green, brown or black insects
having soft bodies. They. are COM
monty found at the tips Of the young
shoots, and cause wrinkling and
stunning Of the leaf. Since they are
sucking insect they cannot be poison
ed. 1t is necessary either to remove
the pests entirely, which can be done
by knocking them off with strong Jet
Of water from the hose, or to apply
some material which will kill the in
sects by touching their soft bodies.
Washing, dipping or thoroughly spray
remedy. This may be prepared by
sleeping tobacco leaves or stems in
warm water. It may also be purchas-
ed at drug stores as black leaf forty
or 40 per cent nicotine sulphate in
which case these materials must be d.
luted with 800 to 1000 parts Of water
before using. II tobacco extract is not

the rate Of u pound to l gallon of
water.
Remember that no insect will be kill
ed which is not touched and if very
few escape they will soon cover the
plants again. For this reason it is
very important that a thorough job be
done.
