NEW DISEASE AND INSECT CONTROLS 
Sodium Selenate after a season’s trial seems to be a definite success. Most 
growers of Chrysanthemums and Carnations prefer the P40 because they 
feel it is easier to apply, however, the pure material is cheaper and just as 
effective. Leaf nematodes, red spider, aphids, midge and numerous other 
insects are controlled by its use. It is the experience of many growers, that 
it will not completely eliminate spraying, but rather acts, in the words of one 
grower “as a watchman.” 
D.D.T. has proven excellent to control thrip, cut worms and leaf rollers 
and numerous other insects. The 50% wettable powders are generally recom- 
mended but the 259% emulsions like DeDeTox and Detex are also excellent. 
10% dusts have also given good results. Plants sprayed with DDT are very 
susceptible to red spider infestation and if Sodium Selenate has not been 
used they must be watched carefully. 
Fermate, a new fungicide has given excellent results. Cuttings should 
be dipped before and after rooting, and it is also excellent as a spray during 
the growing period. 
Aphids are a problem solved best by the use of Nico-Fume Liquid or 
Pressure Fumigators. Unfortunately all nicotine products are in short supply. 
For this reason it is essential that the plants be kept as clean as possible 
before the buds show color by the use of sprays like Loro, Red Arrow Special 
or Hitox. 

Due to the possibility of transportation delays during the winter, we 
recommend shipment by Air Freight or Express. We cannot be respon- 
sible for loss due to delays in shipment and request your permission 
to ship by Air.
