POTATO LEAF HOPPER KILLED BY BLACK LEAF 40 fSrECIAL TO THE TIMES1 CROWN" POINT. Ind.. May 24. Potato growers should be on the lookout for small green fly-Ike leaf hoppers which cause great damage to the potato crop. These hoppers like the plant lice secure their fond by sucking the juice from the potato leaves and stems. As a result of their nttack on the leaves, they dry up, turn brown and take on a dead appearance. Most damage is done during hot, dry weather. Often in walking through the fields the, adult hoppers will rise and fly ahead "i n swarms. There are three generations r. year, the first one appearing about the time the first potato p'.ants are three or four inches. Usually becomes most destructive during July and August. It is not possible to destroy the adults or the winged hoppers, hence the necessity of getting them before they reach this stage. This may be done by spraying with nicotine sulphate commonly known as Black Leaf 40, using 1-2 pint to O'l gallons of Bordeaux mixture, or one teaspoon ful for each gallon. The Bordeaux aits as a repe'.lant. The first spray should be applied when first signs of the insects appear, usuilly when the plants are 3 to 4 incres high. An additional spray should be applied every two weeks as long as the plants are infected. Thoroughness of application is absolutely essential for any degree of success. To do this both sides of the leaves must be sprayed since the young hopper must be covered with nicotine solution to destroy them. Nicotine sulphate or B!ark Leaf 4' may be added to Bordeaux mixture and Lead Arsenate. When all three are combined potato bugs, lice, and hop-
