This is the season when horticult
wrists should prune and spray fruit
trees, shrubs and plants. Fruit in,
spector Brown of King County is en-.
deavoring to get nursery men to paw
closer attention to this matter. with
the object Of guarding against insect
pests.
1t is very important" said he to
the P.I. "that the owners OF ORCH
ards should begin at once to spray
and prune Trees and plants, as the
time for doing is very short. Owing
to the warm weather the buds are al
ready beginning to swell. In winter
spraying, strong solution is needed.
which must be applied before the buds
swell.
lit is also important that trees infec-
ted with the wooley aphis be treated
to solution of whale oil, soap and
quassla, in the proportion of one
pound OF soap to six gallons of water.
with one-half pound of lye added.
THIS solution should be applied to the
trunks and limbs OF trees with a scrub
Ding brush, as far as practicable.
Then the trees should be sprayed with
solution of fresh lime.
ga good plan is to dig up the earth
around the roots of the roots of the
trees, mix it with lime and then satur-
ate 1t with solution of whale oil soap
and I've. In pruning, wood butchers
should not be employed, but trained
and competant men.
81 am able to report that the market
is free from pest-infected nursery stock
since | burned a consignment of in
fected trees sometime ago, with the
exception of a shipment of rose bushes
from distant nursery. The ship
ment in question is infected with
crown gall.
sin order to deceive the inspector,
the nursery had cut off the gall, leay-
ing wounds on the sides of the trees,
The consignment was returned to the
