Excerpt

CLUB MEMBERS need and have asked for simple, reliable instructions for controlling the insect pests and diseases which come to the plants in their club gardens. These instructions are written to aid the club girls of the Southern States in preventing or controlling the damage done by these enemies of their gardens.

Since the different types of insects and diseases require widely varying treatment, the instructions in this bulletin are given in detail. Preventive measures are most important, and each club girl will do well to study the instructions carefully in order that she may intelligently care for her tenth-acre plot.

Further information on diseases and insects can be secured from Farmers' Bulletin 856, Control of Diseases and Insect Enemies of the Home Vegetable Garden.
