Pruning and Spraying.

According to writer in the Ledger,
nature has so calculated as to fix the
time when to place the deposit on the
tree, shrub or plant, seldom failing to
place it when the germ for the future
crop of insect life is most likely to
receive the most care and protection
from natures God.
The insect deposit of the green aphis
and other insects of a similar nature,
is placed on the tender twigs of the
same years grow tn, late in the fall,
about the time the sap has become
dormant, Were this deposit made at
an earlier date the germ would spring
into new form of life, taken the form
of young lice Qarva) When the tree
become dormant those lice would pre-
maturely die, hence leaving the de-
post greatly lessened for a future
crop. This Matching sometimes occurs
owing to late falls. From the fact
that the greater part of the deposit is
placed on the tender twigs of the last
growth, 1 usually cut back the new
growth to about the fourth or fifth
bud, using some care not to cut into
the previous growth. In this. way 1
aim to get rid of at least 80 per cent.
of the deposit. This being done, use
my own judgement as regarded the
time of spraying having some pre-
ference as regards the driest part of
the dormant season.
I would suggest to those who have
spraying to do, do it now from the
fact that never in the history of our
state was there better prospect for a
future crop of insect fruit pests than is
indicated by the present deposit for a
future crop.
