In the cool tall with its heavy dews and fogs the garden slug numbers will < tien build up. Poor stands of clover are some­ times caused by the feeding of this pest. Because the slug feeds at night the real cause of the oamage may never be discovered. Slugs generally work in from lance rows. To check a field make a few trial baitings around the outside of the field. Put a teaspoonful of commercial slug tail at several locations and mark them with stakes. If 2 or more dead slugs are lund after 24 hours it will pay to treat the field. The broadcast application of 4 to 6 pounds of one of the com­ mercial brands of Metaldehyde dug baits is recommended for control.
