There are 350 varieties of petunias in bloom, 125 varieties of snapdragons, 100 zinnias, 49 salvias, 35 varieties of celosias, 15 new seed-grown geranium varieties and many other flowers. The gardens are open from dawn to dusk seven days a week. All flowers are labeled and planted in rows. Take your camera, pencil and paper to note varieties you want to try next year. CORN LEAF APHIDS - Corn leaf aphids are thick in some corn fields. To check for them, pull 25 whorls in four places in a field. Unroll the leaves and determine the percent of infestation. Aphids increase rapidly with hot weather and decrease with cool rainy weather. Treatment is justified on late whorl-stage corn if 50-percent or more of the plants have some aphids with some plants heavily infested and the corn is under stress from low moisture or fertility. If 15-percent or more of the tasseled plants became heavily loaded with aphids you may want to treat. Recent rains have about eliminated the need fqr spraying ^ corn leaf aphids. . CORN ROOT WORM BEETLES Adult northern corn rootworm beetles are feeding on fresh corn silks and may reduce PpUination. County the beetles orii a number of corn silks to determine the infestation. Plan next year's control according to this year's infestation. The western corn rootworm is a yellowand- black-striped beetle. It does more damage to corn than the northern corn rootworm. Sferays are only justified if there are 5 or more beetles per plant and if not over 50- percent of the plants have silked. SOIL TESTING If you have some spare time on your hands, why not get that field tested for limestone, phosphate and potash? The soil is in excellent condition now to take samples. Laboratories can also give you prompt and efficient service. You will be completely ready for your fall fertilization program. Two approved laboratory soil testing services are available to you. They are through the McHenry County Farm Bureau at Woodstock and the International Minerals & Chemical Coip. of Union. PICNIC BEETLES Picnic beetles are uninvited guests at cookouts, picnics and in and around the home. The black beetles with four yellow spots are attracted to the odor of food. Kill the adult beetles, with malathion, diazinon or carta ryl (Sevin). Use 2 teaspoons of either chemical per gallon of water. Spray grass and shrubbery before a cookout, to reduce the beetle infestation. APHIDS Aphids are still present oo many shrubs and some trees. They are soft-bodied, green, suckling insects. They are easily controlled with malathion or with diazinon. Use 2 teaspoons of either chemical per gallon o< water.
