considered complete wlthtout a garden either a flower garden- veg etable garden or combination of both and no garden seems to be complete without its insects in the control of insects prevent ion offers a very definite place in the battle against them prevention may be adopted in several ways but gar den sanitation is of orst importance many of the insects pass the winter under rubbish in and around the gar den a11 weeds and other refuse should be burned with plants as wttn other forms ot life the weak and sickly are tnost susceptible to the attack of insects than the strong and vigorous a- otdlngly every effort stiouw bvjae in the spring to stimulate rapid growth with a view to producing rug ged plants this can be done in a number of ways the first and most important way is to use care in sel ecting the seeds by buying the best from an established dealer before sowing the seed thoroughly cultivate and fertilize the soil the seed will produce stronger plants if sown warm soil for the average gardener it is not important to be able to name the dif ferent species of insects as it is nec essary to know whether they are of the sucking or biting type some of the better known biting insects are cut worms colorado potato beetle caterpillars and rose chafers among the sucking groups aye apbida leaf- hoppers tarnlshted plant bugs and thrtps biting insects are commonly controlled by dusting or spraying the infested plants with a stomach poison such as lead arsenate calcium arsen ate or paris green lead arsenate is probably the most suitable since there is little fear of burning the plants with it the sucking insects are best controlled with nicotine sulphate but pyrethum extracts hellebore and oil sprays are gaining favour one ad vantage of pyrethrum is that it is harmless to human beings success in direct control hinges to a large extent on the early and thor ough application of the proper rem edy insects are much more easfty killed when they are fully grown in dusting or spraying be generous with materials one liberal application is more effective than several that are scanty treat both the upper and lo wer surfaces of the leaves since many of the worst pests seek shelter under the leaves sprays and dusts should be applied on a warm day when there is little or no wind blowing if re peated applications are necessary they should be given at intervals of about a week or slightlyless for further information concerning the control of garden insects the en tomology division dominion depart ment of agriculture will be pleased to give it the
