YOUR VICTORY GARDEN . . . By Henry L. Pree Immediate Control of Pests

In Garden Saves Much Labor

Victory gardeners will soon find opposition - from many insects and | ¥ plant. diseases. Immediate control is essential for success of gardens so

important at this lime,

In order to garden sticcessfully, we must know something about com-

mon pests, be equipped with a good

duster or sprayer, and haye a supply

of right insecticides and fungicides on hand.

Prevention of most. vegetable

: \ pests is comparatively easy, while

! sontrol, once an insect or disease is well established, is oo most. difficult.

There are two

tive garden insects, those - that chew or eat foli~ age or other parts, and those that suck juices. With the “ possible eéxception of rotenone, no one insecticide will kill both types. Stomach poisons, such as lead arsenate and cryolite, are used to fight chewing insects, and contact poisons, such- as rotenone and nicotine sulfate, which kill by contact. and by fumes, are used to #sliminate sucking insects. Cutworms,

Mr. Pree

"usually working at night, cutting

plants off at the ground, are kept controlled by scattering a poisoned bran mash about the plants. Basic insecticides and fungicides for your ‘garden should include: Arsenate of lead—Standard con= trol for chewing or Tléaf-eafing insects, beetles and worms, Also used against grubs, beetles, worms and chinch bugs in the lawn. Nicotine sulfate (Blagk Leaf 40)— For killing aphis, most species of thrip, leaf hopper, etc, on fruits, vegetables, flowers. and shrubs, Bordeaux mixturei-Standard fungicide for control of black-rot, mildew, blight, leaf curl and many other fungus diseases On - fruits, vegetables, flowers and shrubs. Dry lime sulphur—Effective dormant spray to control nearly. all forms of . scale, Dusting sulphur—For control of

all other leaf-eating insects. Also protection against cutworms. Rotenone—A ready-to-use dust containing 5 per cent rotenone, the

| {maximum amount allowable under

rotenone conservation order, Very

® | effective control of all plant ine i{ sects and, being nonpoisonous, safe 1|to use on vegetables and fruits in edible stages.

Wettable ~ sulphur—Finest grade | available, Use 4 teaspoonfuls to a gallon of water for black spot and mildew; it can also be used as a dust.

By GERALD R. THORP , Times Foreign Correspondent MANILA, May 9 (Delayed).—TFhe men in the 158th regimental combat team, fighting in southern Lu» zon, today were met by an IrishAmerican who couldn't’ keep from chuckling as he told how he re-

An officer asked him: “Where are

“I'm from Tennessee,” answered Lanihan, who has been here. since the Spanish-American war. The Jap questioner pondered momentarily and then announced: “Japan has no war with Tennessee.” Lanihan was freed - immediately as a non-belligerent national.

Surprising Haul

Malinowski and two demolitions men spotted a Jap in a cave during thelr hunt and sealed the entrance, Malinowski continued on his way, mentally chalking up another dead Jap. Hours later he returned to see what trophies he could find. There weren't any souvenirs worth | mentioning. But instead of one,

MAUTHAUSEN, Austria, May 6 (Delayed).—In a grim valedictory * to the world’s most vicious war, between 20,000 and 30,000 more Victims of Nazi bestiality were freed yesterday, This came when a patrol of the 1lth armored division stumbled across a series of concentration camps in the Mauthausen area, Just

than its famous counterpart, The | camps were replete with gas cham- | bers and two crematories where | tens of thousands of helpless Nazi | victims had perished. The camp at Mauthausen , itself | contained 16,000 survivors when we | visited it today. . Other thousands had fled the| neighboring éamp at Grusen—a s0-| called Russian camp-—where pris- | oners, frenzied A by . intolerable] hunger and become bestial by years of maltreatment, had engaged in| an orgy of cannibalism on April] 25 and -26. |

Cheer Asari Prisoners from this camp poured down the roads toward Linz,

for nowhere. Yet they still smiled, cheered or clapped when we passed | them. An American captain, who had | been here under sentence of death, | and a Russian major of the NKVD/ (former GPU) showed us the camp | and testified to its horrors. Statistics have not been com- | pleted but ‘their testimony coin-| cided to the effect that both Amer-| ican and British soldiers had been gassed to death. According to the AmericAn cap-| tain—who had been confined here] for six weeks—the Germans used six methods of killing prisoners: Gassing, shooting, injection of gasoline into their veins, or directly into their hearts, exposing’ them naked in sub-zero weather, or sicking police dogs onto them. He stated that 1147 persons died of gassing or by natural death on Tuesday, May 1, alone. Horror Chamber
