(Insecticides Needed
On Burley Plant Beds
Farmers should use insecticides
in tobacco plant beds to insure
?gainst losses of newly-set tobacco
caused toy the tobacco flea beetle.
F. E. Guthrie, tobacco entomolo
;ist at N. C. State College, says
>arly field treatment* are usually
innecessary if plants are properly
xeated in the beds before pulling.
'Not only wilt the plant bed treat
ment be effective for flea beetle
sontrol, but if DDT is used it will
?lso be I# reduce losses caused in
:he field by adults of the vege
able weevil," says Guthrie.
Re treatment of tobacco trau
ilants in tke field may be neces
ary in severe infestations of the
obacco flea beetle or the vege
abls weevil.
Parathion as well as DDT has
[iven good results against the to
>acco flea beetle in plant beda at
hree-fourths to Hi pounds of
?ne per cent dust per 100 square
?ardi of bed or about four level
tablespoons 6f 15 per cent wettable
powder In five gallon* of witter:
applied at three to Ave gallons per
100 tquare feet of bed.
"Read and heed labels when
using partition," says Guthrie.
"The advantage of parattiion is
that it kill* a Uttle quicker than
DDT.
DDT is the only insecticide which
should be used on tobacco plant
beds Just prior to pulHng the
plants. Either a fit* per cent or
M per cent dust of DDT (three
fourths to 1* pounds per 100
aquare yards) gave good results,
but tome growers report better
results with the higher percent
age.
DDT cart be used on the plant
bed aa a spray (about a half cup
90 per cent wettable powder in
five gallons of water applied at
three to five gallon* of spray per
100 square yard*.)
