GARDEN TIME Since the rains and cool weath er have arrived we are having a great deal of trouble with plant diseases and insect pests. Those of you who like to grow a fall crop of tomatoes will have to be on the alert. I have noticed heavy infection with leaf spot on some varieties. That will cause defoliation of the plants and of course loss of most of the crop. Also, at this time of year, and especially in the moimtain area, we are troubled with late blight disease on tomatoes. Late blight will destroy the tomato fruits as well as the leaves. For these diseases the plants should be kept covered with a good copper spray such as Tri- basic Copper Sulfate or Copper A Compound. Use these sprays ac cording to directions given on the container. Anbther pest of tomatoes at this time of the year is the tobacco horn worm. Most tobacco growers know this pest very well. It will completely defoliate a tomato plant in a short time if not taken care of. In small gardens hand picking is the easiest remedy. In larger patches a spray of emy of the stomach poisons will do the job. The harlequin cabbage bug,- sometimes called the terrapin bug, may give a lot of trouble with late cabbage, collards, mustard,, ahd turnips. A 20 per cent Saba- dilla dust,obtainable at most of the larger seed stores will control the harleqxzin bug effectively. If your late sweet com is be ing eaten up by bug worms, dust into the bud with a 5 per cent DDjT dust. This dust applied to the silks as soon as they appear will effectively reduce the amount of ear worm damage also. At least two applications should be made. See your county agent for N. C. Agricultural Extension bulletins on vegetable insect and disease control. n North Carolina has the largest riural population in the United States. irrntiirf Mr. and Mrs. Lynn Dees and family visited in Lillington Sun day. urday.
