lists, humus in some form should
be worked into the soil as far
as possible without injury to the
roots, and the surface should be
kept well mulched.
The red spider mites seem to be
unusually numerous this season.
Spray or dust the evergreens,
azaleas, phlox and other suscepti-
BILE plants with nicotine sulphate,
|HETP CHex-ethyl-tetra phos-
phate), sulphur or other mitacides.
Be sure the spray or dust reaches
the undersides of the leaves where
these tiny pests congregate.
Now is a good time to stake
tall growing plants to keep them
from blowing over during wind
storm while the soil is wet. Use
a soft, thick twine or rag to avoid
cutting soft stems.
The fall boomers - datlias,
chrysanthemums, hardy asters,
etc., should be fertilized to in
sure strong growth and large
flowers. Apply the fertilizer to the
surface about the plants and cul-
tivate lightly. A tablespoonful
is enough for a small plant; a half
cup to a strong-growing aster.
If the sweet alyssum, forget
me-not. annual phlox, ETC., look
Ia bit tired and worn out, give
them a shearing to stimulate new
growth and bloom during the fall
season.
The privet hedges are probably
in need Of clipping to put them
in good appearance for the fall
season. More important is to
do the job now so that the new
growth will have ample time
to mature before freezes come
Evergreens can be set out in
late August or early September
The earlier the better since they
must be well rooted before freez-
ing weather stops root action
Order now and specify early de-
livery. Plant them in a soil which
has been enriched with peat moss
or compost, materials which en-.
courage root growth as well as
hold moisture.

WET Weather Nav
Spread Disease
Among Tomatoes

After a relatively dry growing
season, wet weather now and in
September may change the disease
situation on the Maryland tomato
crop. Gray leaf spot has been
found in Wicomico and Caroline
Counties, according to DR.. L. o.
Weaver, extension plant patholo-
|gist at the University of Mary
land. This disease, coupled with
early blight, and possibly late
blight, may cause rapid defolia-
ton and serious loss of fruit, DR..
Weaver says. Late blight has not
been reported in the State to date.
Defoliation by leaf spot is very
rapid on tomato vines loaded with
fruit. the plant disease specialist
says. while early blight causes an
nual defoliation and reduction in
yield. Late blight development is
favored by cool temperatures and
heavy deWs, and is a particular
threat to tomato fields in West
ern Maryland.
DR.. Weaver advises tomato
growers to continue the spray pro-
gram to protect the plants and
fruit from disease organisms.
Zineb fugicideS, such as dithane
and parzate, provide control for
all foliage and fruit diseases
Manzate, although probably in
short supply, has given excellent
results against leaf spot, according
to DR.. Weaver. Copper fungicides,
containing so per cent fixed cop
per, and applied at the rate OF
4 pounds in 100 gallons of water,
