Where the mosquito netting is coarse the beetles will crowd through, unless something is used to repel them. One of the most successful truck growers of the Susquehanna Valley puts turpentine on lime, and places a quantity of this equal to a small handful on the ground near the plants in the hill, and then covers them with mosquito netting so that the lime and turpen- tine is under the netting. The beetles will not crowd through when find the offensive odor within. Where plants die from the attacks of the larvae of the Striped Cucum- ber Beetles at the roots, the hill should be torn open with a hoe so the larvae will be exposed to the hot sun and die. Otherwise they remain there to attack the next planting, or seek further to destroy. For Brown Rot of Stone Fruits The stone fruits are quite liable to about the time they the disease Rot.
