al twigs. Some of these have
wings, though most of them are
wingless.
The lioys taking agriculture un
dor the supervision of Kelly Mc-
Adams at the Caldwell high school
have learned that the method of
control is to use nicotine sulphate,
I otherwise known as Black Leaf
' Forty. Thi> can be purchased at
most drug stores, as well as from
need dealers. Directions for mix-
ing and applying will be found on
the container. For tall plants, like
i fruit tries, spray of the material
mixed with water is best. Avoid
j hard water. Mix an inch cube of
cheap laundry soap with one gal-
lon of water, and then add two
teaspoons of the Black Leaf Forty.
In larger quantities the propor-
tions are one ounce of Black Leaf
Forty, Six gallons of water, and
one-fourth pound of soap.
The spray must actually hit the
insect in order to kill, consequent-
ly application must be made before
the leaves curl from the insects'
attack, with a sprayer capable of
generating a heavy pressure. The
application must l>e thorough.
