Some of you sweet corn grow
ers may be looking forward to
the satisfaction and joy that will
be yours when you sink your
teeth in the first tender ears.
Perhaps the corn ear worms are
also looking forward to that time
and they usuall get there first
However, they can be effectively
controlled with very little trouble.
For small gardens it is pro- S
bably sufficent and easiest t°
dust the silks of the corn with 5
per cent DDT dust. The dust
should be applied directly to the
silks when about tdree-fourths of
aj the silks are showing and again
when a few of them begin to turn
brown. The moth lays the eggs
on the silks and when they hatch
out, the small corn ear worm
feeds there before he eats the ear
itself. For large plantings a
power sprayer should be used and
a DDT-mineral oil emulsion is
recommended by our entomolog
ists. This spray has been found
to be very effective Tor the con-
the ear worm. <-

weather we may expect to have
trouble with red mites, common
ly called "red spiders." These
very small insects attack the un
dersides of the leaves of many
flowers, vegetables and shrubs,
sucking the plant juices and of
ten killing the plants. If the
leaves of tomatoes, beans, dah
has or other garden plants turn a
brownish yellow color they should
be closely examined for red
mites. Red mites are very diffi
cult to control. Malathion has
been found to be effective but is
(toxic to human beings and
should be used with care and
strictly according to manufact
urers’ directions.
And while we are on the sub
ject of insect control let us not
forget the eyerpresent Mexican
bean beetle. Don’t let the beetles
seriously damage the bean plants
efore you do something about it.
As soon as you see some of the
beetles they are large brown
or yellow lady bird beetles with
sixteen spots on their wing cov ‘
