Considerable anxiety is being man- ifested about the city by owners of home garden plots because of the sud- den appearance of a blight and lice pest that threatens to damage the po- tato crop. This morning a report was sent out from the Connecticut Agri- cultural Experimental station at New Haven referring to the new potato pest. According to the findings of the experts, this pest is an aphid or plant pest that attacks the under side of the leaves and sucks the life from the plants. A solution of nicotine and soap, thinned with water and applied to the under side of the leaves is the only remedy that the experimental sta- tion recommends this far. There is hardly a potato patch in the city that has not been affected and as yet many of the owners have not paid any particular attention. Close obser- vation will show however, that the lower 'leaves of the plant turn yellow and die and scrutiny shows that they are covered with lice. 'BELL-ANS | Absolutely Removes Indigestion.
