There are ways to stop this ■ and most of the other pests that plague the North Carolina gard- enci and commercial vegetable i produce ! The com earworm can be con trolled by the application of i UUi', 23 per cent emulsifiable j concentrate mixed at the rate of: five gallons in 100 gallons of wa- tci and applied at the rate of 25 gallons per acre. Or, carbaryl can be used for the same purpose mixed 50 per cent wcttable powder at the rate of 16 pounds per 100 gallons of water and applied at the rate of Jj gallons per acre.
