HOW TO KII? THE GARDEN OF
CtTWQJUK
Raleflsi. N. C.. Jan. 31 ? The cut
worms which annoy the gardener by
cutting off young plants at or near the
surface of the ground are the worms
or larvae of various moths, and hav
ing passed the winter in a resting or
dormant condition gain become ac
tive with the return of spring and at
Tant wun great voracity any growing
plants In their vicinity, say a C. S.
Ilrimley of the Division of Entomology
>y>rth Carolina Extension Service.
Mr. Brlmley states that there are
quite a number of these annoying lit
tle pests. Some occur In spring only,
being single brooded; other3 are sev
eral brooded and occur throughout
most of the year, the later broods at
least overlapping. Some cu: off plants
at the roots only, while others climb
the stems and eat out the tender buds.
All can be destroyed, However, by us
irg the following poisoned and sweet
ed biiit, which has been used very ef.
fectively by the Division of Entemolo
gy: Bran, one quart; Paris Green,
one heaping teaspoonful; Molasses,
1.4 teacupful.
It Is advised that the Ingredients be
mixed together, adding enough water
to make a crumbly, not a sloppy, mash.
Scatter this thinly between the rows
of affected plants or put a little around
the base of each plant. Keep away
chickens or anything else likely to
eat the mash. It eaten In sufficient
quantity it will poison other things
besides cutworms.
If Paris green is not available, Mr.
Ilrimley states that arsenate of lead
or calcium arsenate In tbout two or
three times t^e amount to the same
quantity of brgii caa be used. Mo
lasses la much, better than syrup for
the sweetening.
Another precaution advised by Mr.
Brimley is to wrap paper around the
stems of such plants as tomatoes as
this will protect the plants from cut
worms. Care sliould be taken to see
that some of the paper Is above and
some below ground.
Keeping the ground clean of grass
and weeds will also greatly aid In
keeping down the number of cut
worms. This, should be attended to
in the full as land with a plentiful
crop of grass or weeds In the fall la
also apt to have plenty of cutworms
in the spring. ?
