Last week's rains produced lush green lawns, swollen flower buds _ and vegetable seedlings breaking Softball champs through the soil in neat green rows. Unfor- tunately the rains brought cool days and cold nights so I hope everyone is keeping an eye on tender plants such as tomatoes peppers, eggplants and cucumbers. They are heat loving plants which don't take kindly to our cool north winds so perhaps a little protection may be wise this week. Along with the summer flowers and vegetables come all the pests which win the Midland The girls' softball team from Huron Park downed Monsignor Castex 31-7 to and District Elementary School Girls' Softball Championships Friday. consists of: (back row left to right) send us into a helpless rage as we discover plants under attack.

This pesticide is Rotenone, which is an organic: dust made from the roots of a tropical plant. It is safe to use up to one day before eating a vegetable without leaving a poisonous residue. For best results dust on a calm day, trying to coat the plants with a fine layer of dust. However, you will have to re-apply after a rainfall. Rotenone can handle most garden pests which attack either vegetables or flowers. An effective way of keeping your garden reasonably clear of pests is to establish a regular dusting schedule which in many cases will prevent damage rather than waiting for damage to occur. I try to dust at 15 day intervals, shortening the time intervals to one week apart if serious damage is occurring in the garden.

For cutworms, which will topple your tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, caulfiflower, broccoli etc. place foil or cardboard collars around stalks when you plant them. This will eliminate any cutworm losses. Many people complain of black, ugly scabs on the bottom of tomatoes as they ripen. This is called blossom rot and is at- tributed to lack of moisture when the plants are blooming and beginning to show fruit. This sounds contradictory but tomatoes do bloom higher on the stalk whilst fruit is developing lower on the stalk. We all know and love juicy, red tomatoes, warm from the sun but keep in mind they need a_ tremendous amount of water to ripen, so sufficient moisture through all stages of growth is necessary.
