• In the early days of commercial flying, hours of daylight were far -too -short. The
mantle of night automatically cancelled flying schedules, But ... because electrical
engineers discovered ways and means of Hooding runways with light ... swift couriers

tomorrow's workday has been completed.
Electricity has not only helped to make Hying econol»icaliy sound, but, with the

What Are Plant Lice
That I Rear So Much About?
Plant lice is the term used com-
monly when referring to aphids.
They are called plant lice because
they cling to the plant like lice
and live by sucking juices from the
tender shoots, leaves and soft bark.
They remain practically stationary
after they once settle and give
birth to young at the rate of 8 to
10 pper day. These young are ready
to do likewise in about two weeks.
You can see how they multiply.
Only the fact that nature destroys
the aphids in huge quantity pre-
vents their doing untold damage.
Where Do Plant Lice
Come - From In the First Place? '
Plant lice or aphids have a pecu-
liar way of starting their first gen-
erations in the spring, They hatch
front eggs which have been hidden
' sway on trash or in other safe
places over winter. The first gen-
eration that hatches can fly ar>;i'
spreads about on favorite vegeta-
tion. The next generations are born
without wings and continue mi
their host plant, giving birth to
new generations.
You can Begin to see why we
recommend clearing up the garden
tate in tile fall or vary early in the
spring,'burning all trash, leaves
and other material that might he.
used as a hiding place for aphid
eggs and other insect carry overs.
Are All Garden Plants
Attacked By Plant Lice?
Just as them are many kinds of
butterflies so there bre many kinds
of aphids—they are even of differ-
ent colors. Some are black some
rose colored, some greed. There is
' to. aphid for almost every plant
you will grow in the garden, and
every aphid is a heavy eater, or we
should say a heavy drinker, for lie
is a sap sucker and his food
taken in liquid form through his
snout, which is especially built for
the purpose.
Ts Aphid Damage
Really Serious?
Aphids can be terribly destruc-
tive. Scientists have counted in the
neighborhood of 26,000 individual
aphids on a single tomato plant. It
you had 25,000 mosquitoes sitting
on you night and day, constantly
drawing blood, it would be a severs
drain on your system. Your garden
plants find this same drain on their
life blood ,which is the sap.
Is There Any Other Damage
Prom Plant Lice?
The plant louse or aphid, as -re
have said, operates by sticking his
snout into. the tender tissues of any
part of the plant he can penetrate
for the purpose of withdrawing.
sap. There is in the saliva of the
plant louse an irritating substance
that will almost ruin a crop.

SPRAY UNDER SiDE
of LEAVES
!low Can Plant Lice
Be Controlled?
Bieck Leaf 40 is death to plant
lice, which it kills not only hy con-
tact but by fumes which arise Wi-
der the foliage from the spray. You
eau spread all the lead arsenate you
wish on the surface of the plant
and yet do no harm to plant lice.
They simply drill through and
draw the fresh sap from beneath
with their snouts, A contact spray
is needed,
