Protection Of
The Plant Bed
(County Agent)
Three types or beds are com
monly recommended. These are
used as individual types, also with
combined ideas of the individual
type in one. Type one Is the boxed
ill -bed, which is prepared by box
ing in plants allowing them to
Hxtend approximately six Inches
above the surface of the soli. To
prevent the plant bed canvas from
resting on the soil, wire should
either be stretched across the bed
at approximately fifteen feet In
tervals or small forked sticks
placed at Intervals over the bed.
The cover should be tightly an
chored around the edges of the
bed. Type two. Apply a thin layer
?f oat or wheat straw over the
bed and allow the canvass to rest
directly over the straw. In this
base the boxed In bed Is not neces
sary. The cover can be anchored
around the edge of the bed with
pegs or stones. Precaution should
be used to prevent the straw from
piling up on the bed, and It should
be scattered so the soil may be
eeen at practically all points. The
?se of straw apparently keeps the
bed warm and lessens damage
from flea beetle. This method of
protecting plant beds in coming
into general use and is highly re
commended.
The third method is known as
the trap bed. This is simply one
bed inside of another bed. The In
side bed is tightly boarded, and
a new cloth with at least twenty
six meshes to the Inch Is very
tightly applied over the bed. Just
out of this inside bed is the second
or outside bed, which may be
from two to five feet wide. In
this bed cabbage and tomatoes can
be planted, and the old cloth may
be used over this portion of the
bed. The idea is to attract the
flea beetle to the outside bed
where It can more easily be poi
soned. To poison the flea beetle,
nse the following mixture: One
pound of Paris green to five
pounds of Arsenate of Lead. This
application should be made while
plants are dry, as moist plants are
more susceptible to Injury. This
mixture can be used on any planl
bed safely.
New plant bed covers bhouid be
used If convenient. When old cov
ers are used It should be boiled
for thirty minuteayto kill diseases
of mosaic and wildfire that might
have lived through the year. A
few days before transplanting the
cover should be removed from the
bed so that plants may be adjust
ed to outside influences.
If blue mold should appear in
the beds the following practices
are recommended: (1) Remove
covers during the day to permit
sunlight and air as soon as the
weather will permit. (2) Avoid
carrying the fungus that causes
this on hands or clothing from

Infected to non-infected beds. (2)
Spraying for the control of blue
mold Is not recommended. (4)
Light applications of quick acting
nitrogen, such as Nitrate of Soda,
will often hasten recovery from
blue mold.
If possible pull plants while the
bed is moist but not excessively
wet. This will reduce the injury
to the plants left in the bed. Pull
only healthy plants for transplant
ing. Plant* beginning to show blue
mold should not be transplanted.
Plants that have recovered from
the disease are safe for transplant
lug.

There are now many imitations of Orange. Success breeds
imitation. But, there is still only one Orange, as every
tobacco grower knows who has used it.
Orange is the only goods that has proved its worth in the
severest kind of accurately conducted competitive tests.
Over a period of many years Orange has been challeng
ing all comcrs. During the past four years 37 growers
have tested it against 71 competitive plots, using every
well known competitive brand on the market.
What happened? Orange's 4 year average in these tests
shows that it produced $49.40 per acre more ? nearly $100
per ton extra! -
Do you wonder that we say "beware of imitations"?
Do you wonder that we say ? Orange will outgrow, out
produce, outqualify and outdo in every way any tobacco
fertilizer known.
Do you wonder that we say ? if you want the kind of
tobacco Orange grows, you've got to buy Orange !
