Steps to Control
LuWn Disease

Several fungus diseases are
prevalent in the lawn at this
time of the year. For a good
lawn follow these steps.
l. Remove all clippings from
the lawn.
2. Don't NOV your grass any
closer than / y inches.
3. Don't water late in the
evening. Morning or midday
watering allows the grass to
dry before night thereby re-
stricting fungus growth.
4. Follow a protective fungi
eide gram from April
through October. Use a broad
spectrum fungicide. one that
will control most or all Of the
common diseases such as acti-
done rz. kromad, captain, etc.
These fungicides should be
used every two weeks or &C
cording to the manufacturers
directions.

Safeguards and Notes
On Garden Chemicals

Light and heat are other en-
emies of most pesticides thus
storage in a dark or shaded
cool area is considered the
safest practice.
Brown glass may be a SUBJ
stitute for darkness for most
bottled concentrates. The cool
er they are kept the longer
they last may be a good rule
to follow.
Cracked bottles and leaking
bags should be discarded as
quickly as possible If the own
er does not wish to go to the
trouble to re-package the pes
ticides. Relabel the new pack
age plainly and accurately, do
not trust your memory as to
either the contents or the rate
of dilution.
If open shelves are used for
storage the section devoted to
pesticides should be enclosed
in a heavy wire mesh to keep
children and pets out.
Some materials, such as nico-
tine sulphate and malathion,
have pronounced odors and so
the storage cabinets might well
be placed where the objection
able odors will not invade the
living quarters.

LoveIiest Insect Keeps
Aphids Under Control

An aphid is a minute. deli
cate insect that removes juices
from trees and practically all
kinds of plants. Certain spe-
cies spread various plant
viruSeS.
Aphid populations may in
crease rapidly. Many have 13
or more generations a year. A
scientist once calculated that
the descendants of a single
aphid in one summer could
produce. if unchecked, a bulk
of matter equal in weight to
the 8 billion people on earth.
But nature takes care of this.
And one of the controls, is the
lacewing fly. one of the lowell
est in the insect kingdom.
AT summer twilight a lace
wing fly fits across the garden.
It's lacelike Silvery wings are
iridescent, its eyes like golden
jewels. It settles on a leaf,

The old. gray earthenware

its bottom gave up and crum-

ture with curved Jaws that ex-
tend beyond the head.
1t encounters its first aphid.
It grips it. wrestles it, then re-
moves the body fluids. Now
the aphis-lion has an Unsuitable
appetite. 1t looks around for
more aphids. BY the time it is
10 days old it may feed on as
many as 80 aphids in an hour,
and at IL days it can destroy
an aphid a minute.
The full grown larva pulls it
self into a ball at the end of a
leaf, wraps itself in silk. With

Summer Plants

Many of the perennials and
biennials may be easily grown
from seed sown at this season
However, summer growing con-
ditions are not always favor
able in the Washington area,
and care must be used If good
termination is to be had. Pre-
pare the soil in a sheltered
spot mixing peatmoss and per-
lite to make it light and mois-
ture retenative. Firm the soil
about the seed. water and COW
er with burlap or other mate
rial to keep the soil moist, free
from crusting and cool.

Most gardeners soon accum-
ulate numerous sprays, weed
killers, bats and fertilizers
which carry with them two
problems. One is to keep them
out of harms way, the other
is to protect their usefulness
Careless handling of course car
ries with it the risk of being
sampled by small fry and pets.
Most manufacturers see that
the packages carry suitable
warning clauses. But few men,
ton how long they will retain
their usefulness even with prop
er storage.
In addition there is always
the problem of lost labels and
it is difficult to tell which may
be a fertilizer and which may
be pesticide.
Every effort should be made
to see that each package or
container is properly and legi-
bly, labeled. Parafine-coated
wired labels are good although
some materials will corrode the
wire. Heavy weather proof
marking pencils generally are
useful if there is a clean, dry
surface to write on. Jars and
cans in which these materials
may be sealed are usually best
marked with adhesive tape and
the tape covered with parafine
The storage cabinets should
be in a dry place, preferably
with doors that may be kept
locked. Usually this is the
basement, but even there it is
quite likely that summer damp
ness will penetrate. Thus those
materials that can be kept
sealed in can or jar are most
likely to retain their. useful
ness.
Some chemicals such a py-
retheum retain their potency
at best for only two or three
months If exposed to air. The
well known Bordeaux mixture
is another that deteriorates
rapidly. Other materials, such
as DOT, retain their potency
for two or three years. Fol
this reason the buying of ex-
ceSsive quantities (more than
will be used in a single sea-
SOM is questionable practice.

Post-Emergence
Grab Grass Killer

Two applications Of a post
emergence crab grass killer at
five-day intervals will destroy
crab grass after 1t appears
right up to its toughest stage
Of maturity.
The control chemicals are
usually effective in about two
weeks after application.
In addition to control Of
smooth and hairy crab grass,
the post-emergence chemicals
destroy barnyard grass, witch
grass, common chickweed, dali
lis grass, yellow foxtail and
sedge. An eight-pound bag may
be sufficient for covering a full

Madonna Lilies

The Madonna lilies put on
an excellent display this sea-
son. This fact may have given
interest in the planting of
these snowy summer bloomers.
The bulbs are usually avail
able in August and that is the
best time for planting. They
need only a two-inch covering
Of soil over the bulbs which
should be spaced about IL
inches apart. The Madonna
lily is especially sensitive to
moisture and should be in a
very well drained situation. In
case of doubt the beds may be
raised two or three inches to
provide good growing condi-
tons even in clay soils.

Beetles War

The Japanese beetle season
lasts until mid-August and it
is important to keep foliage of
plants covered with a protec-
tive coating. Fruits. however,
should not be sprayed with
DOT since it is not soluble in
water and difficult to remove
by washing. Methoxychlor and
Sewn are much easier to re-
move by washing and are eff
fective in killing the beetles
which cluster on peaches and
plums as they near the ripen-
ing stage.
