GET RID OF ROSE BUGS 
A writer in “Horticulture,” July 1, 
1938, states that she has found an abso- 
lute cure for “Rose Bugs” or beetles, 
those steely gray creatures that so devas- 
tate Roses, Peonies and Grapes in late 
May or early June. She recommends the 
use of one tablespoonful of iron sulphate 
to each plant, worked around it but not 
over the crown.
