ROSE BUGS NUMEROUS AND IN
FURIOUS

Reports are coming in frequently TO the
office of the college of agriculture to the
effect that rose bugs are unusually album
dant this year and are doing considerable
damage on many cultivated plants, These
creatures go under various names; Rose
bug rose beetle, rose chaser, etc
Practical gardeners are beginning to find
out what scientists have known for some
time, namely, that direct control is pos
siblc by spraying with arsenate of lead,
using it at the rate of five pounds to 20
gallons of water, to which should be added
one gallon of molasses Without the mo-
lasses, the spray is not so effective 'as
the beetles will avoid the parts of the
plant which are coated with the poison,
and feed on places where none of the spray
has been lodged. Spray first, says Prof.
NJ, B, Cummings, specialist in horticu-
ture for the Vermont Agricultural Service,
when the beetles are new. and again in
one week. Repeated application Is nee
essary. The point often overlooked by
gardeners is the fact that the amount OF
arscnate used is somewhat more than
twice the usual amount applied to garden
and fruit plants. A further fact worth
recording in connection with this creature
is that ii does not breed in ground kept
clean with cultivation, Life history stud
les have recently revealed the fact that
il the ground is kept frequently stirred
from early May up until early July, so
many of the creatures are killed in the
Matching process that there are very few
creatures left to do injury. Cultivation
must be made every few days. A strik-
ing fact is to the effect that clean cult
vacation as a practical means of suppress
sion is one that ought to be more adopted
and practiced.
