sional. 1t has not yet been ascertained
whether GOODNESS or warmth in the
winter causes them to die.
The only remedy at present known
is strong kerosene emulsion, and the
only time when it can be applied to do
any good is while the leaves are off the
tree in the winter. A thorough treat
ment at this time is very effective, in.
deed almost magical in its results.
The emulsion should contain one
fifth kerosene. and should be literally
applied.
The common formula for kerosene
emulsion is as follows:
Heat one gallon OF water to boiling
and dissolve therein half pound of
soap mot the cheapest grade,) and while
still boiling hot remove from the fire
and add two gallons of kerosene. Pass
the mixture through a spray pump and
direct the stream back into the recep-
tacle with as much force as possible.
This causes it to rapidly assume
the appearance Of cream. Continue the
pumping five or ten minutes, or until
no Kerosene separates at the top when
1t stands undisturbed for a moment.
When made, dilute with seven gallons
more OF water and it is ready for use
on the blister mite. For use on green
aphis, etc., 1t should be adluted with
seventeen to twenty gallous of water in
stead Of seven.
The expense of emulsion applied as
directed will amount, for materials, to
about 3 cents for a pear tree 70 to Is
feet high, with large top and will run
down to a fraction of cent ON young
trees only set year or two.
