The Right Time to Spray.

Spraying will begin in the apple
orchards all over Colorado from the 5th
to the Goth of May according to location.
The law as regards spraying while in
bloom should be strictly observed.
Fruit growers can not afford to be It
outs with the beekeepers and beside no
possible good can result from spraying
apple trees while in blossom. The
Goblin moth does not deposit its eggs
until the little apples set, usually a
week after shedding off the petals.
However, the main object of the first
spraying is to place quantity of the
poison into the calyx of the little apple
and to do this time when it is turned
upward and most open and free from
obstruction should be selected.
If spraying is done when the tres
are in full bloom much damage may be
done to the crop by washing off the
pollen which is essentialto the fertiliza-
ton of the blossoms. The petals, pistils
and stamens are then in the way and
interfere with the mixture entering the
calyx. However, when spraying is
delayed until about two weeks after
the shedding of the blossoms thu calyx
will be closed in most varieties so as to
prevent effective work.
Four pounds of arsenate of lead or
disparene to one hundred gallons of
water is the right proportion for use in
spraying all through the season. In
the first application the trees should be
thoroughly drenched. From four to
/ six gallons to the tree are required to
4 do good job if of full bearing age. A
! later spraying along about the middle
/ of July is needed to head off the second
or late brood of worms and for it less
mixture is required as the object is
merely to stick very fine drops on the
surface of the apples. AS has been
explained every spring for the last ten
years. about eighty per cent of the first
brood of worms enter at the calyN while
of the later broods about ninety per
cent burrow into the smooth surface or
at point where two apples touch. The
first spraying is by far the more i'm
portant and the gaeat effort of every
apple man should be to have this well
done and at the eTact time when it will
be most effective.
