leaders called up for expected
quick approval today a bill TO
authorize the coming of a so

the late President Kennedy.
The bill was one of two meas
ures IGNORING Kennedy on
which action was scheduled.
The House Public Works Com
mittee was slated to act on a
proposal to rename the planned
National Cultural Center here
the John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Center for the Performing arts.
The bill to create the new So
cent coin was called up under
special procedure requiring a
two-thirds vote for passage.
House leaders apparently had
no fear on this score, however.
The coin bill has received
priority attention since Presi-

on Dec. 10. The House Banking

proved it in a brief session
Dec. II.
There has been no Senate ac-

Holly Leaf Miner
Can BeControIIed

Adults Of the holly leaf miner
are now emerging and laying
eggs. This Is q good time to
spray for their control. Injury
is caused by the leaf-mining
larvae. Injury is also caused by
the adult female. The females
puncture the leaves with their
ovipositor and feed on the ex-
uding plant juices. These are
in addition to the punctures
that they make in laying eggs.
AS q result of these punctures
the leaves may be unsightly
from stippling, and at times
may be stunted and twisted.
Dimethoate insecticide sprays
have been found efficient for
controlling this insect. Sprays
applied during late April, or
early May, are quite effective
in preventing leaf mining. Use
/ teaspoonful Of 46 per cent
dimethoate to one gallon Of
water. Dimethoate applied in
late summer is also effective in
killing miners in the leaves.
Dimethoate is safe on Ameri-
can holly, but should not be
used on other kinds. - From
maryland Nurserymen's News,
April, 1868.
