the di.strict chairman. Miss Margaret

2,000 night school pupils have been

TOBACCO IN.SECTS
MAY BE CONTROLLED
According to the number enrolled
The annual toll by insects of
thousands of dollars worth of to
bacco grown in North Carolina may
be avoided by simple remedies which
are suggested by C. H. Brannon,
extension entomologist at State Col
lege.
For instance, says Brannon, use
the “1 to 6” mixture at the rate of
3 pounds an acre on ne\vly set
plants and from 4 to 6 pounds an
acre on tobacco half-grown or larg
er, to control the flea beetle. 'Ihe
one in six mixture is made by mix
ing one part of Paris Green with
five parts of arsenate of lead. The
mixture as advocated for half-grown
plants will aUo control horn worms.
In both cases, it is nece.ssary to ap
ply the dust to the under-side of the
leaves.
Bud worms cause considerable
damage each year and may be con
trolled by mixing one pound of
arsenate of lead with 50 pounds of
corn meal. For small amounts, use
6 heaping table-poonfull of the lead
arsenate to one peck of corn meal.
The poison must be carefully mixed
through the meal and one peck or
12 pounds used per acre. Brannon
advises making the application early
in the morning when the bu(ls are
open. Drop a small pinch of the
mixture directly into the center of
the bud. The bud worm prefers the
meal to the tobacco and will eat
enough to cause his death.
Cut worms sometimes cause con
siderable damage to tobacco recently
.set in the field. To control these
pests, Brannon advi.ses making a
mixture of whe&t bran, 50 pounds,
and Paris green, one pound, with
enough water to moisten the mix
ture. Apply this at the rate of 15
to 20 pounds late in the afternoon.
If a heavy rain occurs, the appli
cation must be repeated.
For horn worms, Brannon sug
gests the one in six mixture as ad
vocated for flea beetle.s.
