SAVE LATE CAB
BAGE FROM WORMS

The green cabbage worms have
been unusually abundant this sum-
mer and the late crop of cabbage will
suffer if the pest is not controlled.
Where only few plants are to be
protected in the home garden, secure
small quantity of powdered arsenate
of lead and dust little of it over the
infested plants. To make it go fur
Their it may be mixed with equal parts
of air-slacked lime. Renew it after
heavy rains or as the plants grow
and throw out new leaves.
The University of Missouri College
Of Agriculture suggests that to pro-
tect cabbage where grown CONNER
cially, it be sprayed or busted with
poison once every week or ten days
where the pest is abundant. One
pound Of powdered arsenate to so gal
Ions of water to which enough soap
is added to make a weak suds, should
be used as spray. The soap helps
to make the spray spread orr stick, in
place of running off like water from
ducks back. The worms consume
small quantity of the poison along
with the cabbage and it quickly kills
them.
