SPRAY YOUR DAHLTAS FOR BEST RESULTS. 
Leafhoppers are the principal offenders in our locality. 
Try Spraying with D.D.T. or Methoxyrhlor every ten 
days after they come un for awhile, and see if they do 
not do better for you. We used Methoxychlor the past 
two seasons to control both Leafhopvers 2nd J2p°nese 
Roetle, with eyrellent results. Tt also will contro! the 
Mexican Bean Beetle. It is much less poisonous than 
D.D.T. Follow instructions on the can. 
To all we extend a cordial invitation to visit our 
gardens during the growing season and blooming 
period. The Dehlias are usually at their best the first 
part of September.
