before State Horticultural society.
During last summer a series of ex-
periments were made with combina-
tons of lime and sulphur to note the
effect upon insects and upon foliage.
The san Jose scales sometimes be-
come so abundant in the latter part Of
the summer that it seems desirable TO
check them so that the trees shall not
be too badly infected when they go
into winter did not myself use the
boiled mixture of lime and sulphur,
but | have been informed by several
who have used ii that ii was very
satisfactory They used 1t at winter
strength. emitting the salt, and seemed
10 ind that the lime and sulphur alone
may he used AT nearly winter strength
without especial damage, except on
the more tender kinds of leaves As
the result of all the work done l do
not feel that it is possible to recon-
mend either of the lime and sulphur
combinations for summer use against
the developing scales.
