The Florists' Review 



April 8, 1915. 



although many seedsmen handle his 

 seeds. He believes the acreage of sweet 

 peas by all growers is materially 

 smaller this year than last in California. 

 In the Lompoc neighborhood last year 

 the aphis wftrked such havoc that the 

 locality may almost be said to have 

 been abandoned this year, according to 

 Mr. Zvolanek; while there still are 

 many pieces under sweet peas, they are 

 so scattered as to afford some hope that 

 the aphis can be controlled. It has been 

 demonstrated that two sprayings will 

 keep the aphis in check, but last year 

 many of the growers did notliing at all 

 to try to save their crops. Of course, 

 the sweet peas this year are on land 

 used for other crops, as no grower 

 cares to put peas on the same land two 

 years in succession. The custom is to 

 contract small tracts with farmer grow- 

 ers, shifting about from year to year.
