struction of the leaves, however, will
not ordinarily prove to be sufficient
protection against the ravages of this
dangerous fungus. The trees must be
thoroughly sprayed with the full
strength Bordeaux mixture. 1t is gen.
orally recommended to spray twice.
The first spraying should be just be-
fore the buds open in the spring and
the second one just after the blossoms
fall The second spraying would be
better done by using four pounds of
bluestone instead of six, as recon-
mended in the full strength mixture.
Too much bluestone has the effect of
making the apples have a rusty ap-
pearance. The experience of the
writer has been that the use of the
4-4-50 formula entirely obviates this
rusting of the fruit.
1t must be remembered that in our
treatment of scabby apples or trees
affected with black-spot canker, we do
not cure the malady-that is entirely
out of the question. What we aim at
is to kill the spores and thus prevent
a repetition of the disease. The dis
ease does not live over the winter,
but dies out, SO that we shall have
none of it the next year if we can
kill the spores. The limbs of the
trees being covered with the Bordeaux
mixture, the spores die on coming in
contact with the copper, and do not
grow AS the spore sacks live over
on the leaves and not on the apples
it is doubtful if the contagion can
be spread by scabby apples. Scabby
apples are frequently found on sale in
Seattle and other points during the
winter time, but no harm is done in
this way, for the reason that the

it stands any great length of time it
undergoes certain chemical changes,
and its efficiency is impaired, and
eventually it is worthless. This ten
dency of the Bordeaux mixture to be-
come worthless by standing over
night has been confounded by some
persons, who never learn anything ac-
curately, with the action of the lime
sulphur wash if it stands over night.
The only deleterious effect on the
lime-sulphur wash is that it becomes
unavoidable by standing very long.
This difference has been clearly
brought out by some of the best chem
lists in the United States.
The apple scab and the black-spot
canker are two of the fungous dis
eases for which we have to spray with
the Bordeaux mixture. The first
named is a very serious pest in all of
the humid sections, like the Puget
Sound and the Willamette valley coun-
tries. 1t is to be found in some of the
arid districts, but is not serious pest,
and in some sections, like the Yakima
valley, is not found at all. 1t is pretty

moth is the worst, the apple scab will
not be a serious pest, and likewise
that where the scab is bad the codling
moth will not prove seriously injurious
to the apples.
The apple scab passes the winter
principally on the leaves. In the
spring, when warm weather comes on,
the little sacks thai contain the spores
burst open and the spores are carried
about and lodge on the limbs of the
apple trees. The infection finally
reaches the young apples, and the
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1906-03-15

spore sacks are not found on the ap-
pies. But it does not pay to raise
scabby apples, even if they can be
sold without injury to others, for they
will not bring good price in this
condition. Hence, the need of spray
ing and the destruction of the leaves
as here recommended.
The black-spot canker is also a Sc
rious pest on the west side of the Cas-
cade range. If not checked it will
finally ruin the trees attacked. There
is no cure for the affected parts, but
the disease will die annually, and if
we can kill the spores we shall be
done with it, Two sprayings are rec
commended for the black-spOt canker,
and both of them in the fall. Double
strength Bordeaux should be used. AS
stated above, the object is not to cure
the affected parts-tnat is not neces-
sary, for the attack has done it's work
and no further injury will follow
but if the spores are not killed, new
attacks will be made and the injury
will continue till the trees die. Spray
the affected parts thoroughly in No
vember and repeat this operation in
two or three weeks. This has been
found to be such check on the spores
that the injury is very small if there
is any at all. Some have advanced
the idea that the condition of the soil
is responsible for the black-spot can
ker, and that it may be "cured" by
the use of certain washes. Prof.
Wood, of the department of vegetable
pathology, Washington, ID. c., has
shown up these absurdities in such a
light that for any one now to try to
defend them is to put his sanity seri-
ously in question.
The best thing out on this form of
canker is a bulletin by Prof. Law
renee, of the Washington State Col
lege at Pullman. Any one needing
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1906-03-15

further light on this disease should
send for this bulletin and carefully
read it. A word of caution may not
be out of place here. Avoid the peri
patetic tree doctor" as you would
rattlesnakes. The man who goes
around offering to cure your tree dis
eases by boring holes into them and
placing therein some dope warrant
ed to kill all noxious insects and heal
all diseases of trees is fraud. The
United States is spending millions OF
money in order that trained men may
be kept in the field to study such
things to help the fruit growers to
combat them. Their recommendations
are worth something, but what is to
be thought of the quack who goes
around claiming to know more than
all these trained men who are giving
their entire time to the study of such
matters?
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1906-03-15

fungous growth causes the black
spots so we'll known where this pest
prevails. A good thing to do, there
fore, is to destroy the leaves upon
which these spore sacks winter over.
This will not wholly eradicate the
spores, but must greatly reduce their
numbers. Some of our scientific men
think this destruction of the leaves
does not amount to much, but in this
they must be mistaken. This de-
