PLANT LICK AM) SQUASH BIG
CAN UK CONTROLLED
SAYS EXPERT.
Tho following letter Ib a mussago
to ovory gardlnor In Lincoln County
To tho Editor:
Several Inquiries liavo lately
come to the office regarding the
control of tho .Cucumber Aphis or
commonly called tho plant louse.
The AphlB Ib a very small, greon,
soft bodied Insect that Is easily over
looked, It has sucking mouth parts
and destroys the plant by extract
ing tho juices. A good sign of the
presence of tho Aphis Is, when the
vinos begin to wilt and turn brown.
Tho best roiuedles for control is
to spray tho plants with a solution
made by mixing a teaspoonftil to a
tableapoonful of Nlcotlno Sulphate
or Ulack Leaf 10 In a gallon of
water. This is a contract Insecti
cide and tho Aphis must bo hit by
tho spray to be killed. Tho spray
can bo applied with a 'hand sprayer.
Tho Squash Bug (atiasa trlstls)
Is another Insect that destroys tho
vinos of the Cucumber, Squashes
and Melons. Tho full grown bug
is a little over ono half Inch long
and 1h of a rusty black color abovo
. and yellow beneath. Tho best
means of control for this Insect Is
hand picking In tho morning and
evening at which times tho bugs are
somewhat torpid.
Boards laid among tho vinos at
night will bo found to have many
bugs under them In tho morning,
and these may be killed by cruch
ing. or otherwise. t
