Garden Notes from New England 
Controlling Aphids. —There is one 
common garden pest for which a liquid 
spray is absolutely necessary. That is 
the aphid. Seldom have the aphids been 
more abundant than this year. The only 
way it is possible to have decent roses is 
to spray them regularly at short inter¬ 
vals with some liquid which will smother 
the lice. Kerosene emulsion is the cheap¬ 
est. but a nicotine preparation like Black 
Leaf 40 is more commonly used because 
easier to handle. A very little soap 
should invariably be added. Otherwise 
the spray will roll off the smooth leaves 
and much will be wasted. The soap makes 
it stick, but if you get too much soap into 
your pump you will make the pump stick. 
Sprinkling Poison. —Sometimes 1 see 
amateur gardeners applying Paris green 
or some other poison to potatoes with a 
watering can. This is not good practice, 
and in the end enough spraying material 
is wasted to pay for a small pump. More¬ 
over. a satisfactory distribution is not. 
made. The watering can has its uses, but 
it makes a very poor substitute for a 
spray pump. 
The Corn Borer. —Now that the Eu¬ 
ropean corn borer has been found in some 
of the towns south of Boston, thus adding 
considerably to the infested area, farm¬ 
ers are showing increased concern over 
the spread of this pest. For several yearn 
sweet corn has been one of the most prof¬ 
itable market garden crops, and the rav¬ 
ages of the borer seem likely to cause 
market gardeners a heavy loss. The loss 
to farmers will be even greater if the 
A Knapsack Sprayer in the Garden 
borer escapes to the more peculiarly rural 
sections. There is good reason for every 
farmer and gardener to watch closely for 
the appearance of this pest, and to report 
to the Secretary of Agriculture at Boston 
if they find a new worm with which they 
are not familiar. 
Repelling Crows. —The coating of 
seed corn with tar to prevent its being 
pulled up by the crows is a common prac¬ 
tice. I have never heard before of using 
creosote instead, but the Norfolk County 
Bureau has been advocating creosote as a 
first-rate crow repellant. 
I ’sing Acid Phosphate. —Consider¬ 
able effort has been made in Massachu¬ 
setts this year to increase the use of 
acid phosphate, especially on farms and 
in gardens where manure has boon used 
almost exclusively. It has been found 
that acid phosphate supplies the fertiliz¬ 
ing elements which the manure lacks, and 
that it is often possible to increase the 
crop to a surprising extent by this means. 
Many gardeners seem to think that if they 
use manure plentifully enough, the use of 
any other fertilizer is a waste. Just the 
contrary is true, for acid phosphate helps 
to strike a fertilizing balance wluch nat¬ 
urally results in bigger yields. There is 
no reason why this fertilizer should not be 
used as a side dressing after the crops 
have begun to grow. A handful to a run¬ 
ning yard will be about the right, amount, 
and of course it should be worked into 
the ground along the rows, and not al¬ 
lowed to touch the plants. 
Moth Balls and Squash Bugs. —It 
is rather amusing to read that a prom¬ 
inent entomologist in one of the States is 
now advising the spreading of naphtha¬ 
lene flakes in the hills when squashes are 
planted to keep away the squash bugs. 
For a long time some gardeners have ad¬ 
vocated the use of moth balls, usually be¬ 
ing ridiculed for their pains. Apparently 
this plan is now being justified by expert 
authority, for there can be but little dif¬ 
ference between moth balls and naphtha¬ 
lene flakes. 
Rose Bugs and Chicks. —If you are 
a chicken grower, watch out for rose bugs. 
TIiis may seem like advice more needed by 
the garden maker, but 1 have been assumed 
by those who know that the rose bug 
often causes the death of many young 
chickens. It seems that chickens are 
very fond of the bugs, but that a hearty 
meal usually ends disastrously. Now the 
rose bugs visit the grapevines almost as 
freely as the rose bushes, aud grapevines 
are frequently grown on henyard fences, 
or even in the henyard itself. The moral 
is obvious. E. I. FARRINGTON. 
W ITH JOHNSON’S HASTEE PATCH the most 
inexperienced motorist can satisfactorily and inexpen¬ 
sively repair his own tubes.. No time, labor or heat required. 
The patch can be applied in three minutes—at a cost of 2 
cents—and it’s so simple a child can use it. 
Ready For " Instant Use 
With Johnson’s Hastee Patch it takes but two or 
three minutes to make the repair and the tube can be pumped 
up immediately and is ready for instant use at any speed. 
JOHNSON’S 
H astee Patch 
Johnson’s Hastee Patch isn’t a makeshift—it per¬ 
manently mends tubes and casings. It is much better than 
vulcanizing because there is no danger cf burning and spoil¬ 
ing the tube. Johnson’s Hastee Patch gives equally good 
results on a pin hole puncture or a large blowout. It is con¬ 
veniently put up in strips so the user can cut just the right 
size patch for each repair. 
Johnson’s Hastee Patch Is splendid for repairing 
garden hose—rubber boots, coats and gloves—rubbers—auto 
tops—footballs—hot water bottles—and all rubber articles.
