Stark, USAC Extension Service victory garden specialist, who adds that the inexperienced gardener will be overwhelmed with the long list of pests that attack vegetable crops in Utah. In Utah, from 25 to 35 pests are listed as being serious enemies ene-mies of crops, but all of these pests never occur in the same locality or in an individual garden.' gar-den.' Two or three pests often become serious in the garden plots, while others never reach the point where they cause worry wor-ry for the gardener. Insecticides provide the most common means of controlling common garden pests; Hand picking offers an other method of controlling larger insects such as the tomato horn worm, squash bug and Colorado potato beetle Keeping down the weeds around the garden is another effective control method. ; "For most garden pests, however, how-ever, a good duster or sprayer should be used in applying in secticide to the crops for the control of insects," he points out. "For some of the smaller insects this provides the only method of control and hand-picking is, of course, out of the question," the garden specialist emphasizes. An early pest on spring crops is the flea beetle, which is troublesome trou-blesome on tomatoes, potatoes and beets. It is a small, shiny, black bug that moves by quick, jerky movements, and is usually found on the outside of leaves. Rotenone dust consisting of .5 percent rotenone is effective in control, and care should be taken tak-en to apply dust to the underside under-side of the leaves. Another pest that is very bothersome both-ersome on such crops as peas, cabbage, cauliflower and some times beans and other vegetables is the common aphid or plant louse. This is a little soft-bodied green or brown bug which congregates con-gregates in large colonies, usually usual-ly at the top of the growing portion por-tion of the plant or in the case of cabbage in the center of the head. There are several materials used in control of these plant lice, but the one which will work with most vegetables is nicotine sulfate 4 nicotine dust is very effective in control and can be purchased ready-made. If the home gardener wishes to make it up himself, all that is necessary is the addition of one ounce or five teaspoons of nicotine sulfate sul-fate or "black leaf forty" to one pound of hydrated lime. Put the sifted lime in a tight can and add several stones to aid in mixing mix-ing and then pour the nicotine sulfate over the lime. Shake and rotate the can until the material ma-terial is thoroughly mixed. A liquid spray consisting of one tablespoon of nicotine sulfate dissolved in one gallon of soapy water in which two level tablespoons table-spoons of soap flakes have been mixed is another effective measure meas-ure for controlling plant lice. A .75 percent rotenone dust is more satisfactory than the nicotine nico-tine compound for controlling plant lice on cauliflower or cabbage, cab-bage, he concludes.
