CROP PRODUCTION 



Write a story telling what you see and illustrate the 

 story by drawings. 



Enemies {May to October) 



Find eggs and the various stages of the black squash- 

 bugs. Try the plan of trapping the adults in early 

 summer by placing old shingles or boards near the plants. 

 Look under these early in the morning to find the bugs. 



Find examples of striped or spotted cucumber-beetles. 

 Try cheap tobacco powder as a repellent.
