Sucking insects may be controlled by the use of 3 lb. soluble 
sulphur and 1 pt . 40-percent nicotine sulphate to 120 gal. Mater. This 
Mas effective against cankerworms nhen applied before the larvae irere 
half groT7n. It rra.s also more efficacious than the dormant spray against 
the young oyster-shell scale.

Effective mechanical means are hand-netting and enveloping each 
fruit in lotus leaves, uhich, OMing possibly to their property of emit- 
ting a nicotine-like odor, repel the moths.

Studies have shown that the larvae of the leopard moth are killed 
by treating the tr.-igs and branches of infested apple trees with soluble 
pine oil ii which has been dissolved nicotine (p. 848). Studies of the 
practical use of the reduced nicotine charge against various insects 
(pp. 158-169) are discussed (p. 849 of abstract).
