The niost common insects whivii at-

the squash -bug, the squash vine boreri
und the aphis, or melon louse; the
principal diseases, are the Wilt and, the
blight,
The easiest way to treat plants for
the Yellow beetle ,a to use some form
of repellant. They -abhor dust of -any
kind, and many ,Ddori are offp
glaive to
them. Air -slaked lime is very com-
Imonly ,used. It is generally scented
with kerosene, turpentine, or earboilic
acid. As the beetles spread, a* rapidly,
it is important that the lime be on
I the Oklits a.111 the time, Therefore
they should be dusted, -when they A",_;i
appear and -at frequent intervals
thereafter until the danger is passed.

Other dusts are often used in place
of lime,as land pftstex, road dust, to-
bacco dust, and cayenne pepper. The
two latter do not need anything to
scent thein with. Tobacco dust is ,s_
pecially good. Instead of the dust,

Wood ashes saturated with kerosene
are also used in this way, but care
must be taken that they do nOt touch

Instead of dusts, some growers use
sprays. The 'most common is Bor-
deaux rnixture, which is the -beat, as it
is a fungicide as well as a repellant.
Arsenate of lead is usually mixed with
it, about three pounds of lead to fifty
gallons Of 3-6-50 Bordeaux. Lime,
sulphur is sometimes used with good
effect in conjunction with thearsenate
