Prof. A. B. Cordley, of OAC. SAYS
this is the time to spray for Goblin
meth. When the fruit trees are in
bloom is the proper time to make
your work count. Ten days after
the blossoms have fallen it is too
late. For good results use the fol-
lowing formula: Four ounces of
srsenatc soda, twelve ounces of
acedate of lead. Dissolve in water
in separate bucket pour together
and YOU have sufficient arsenate of
lead for fifty gallons of water, and
all you have TO do is to pour your
arsenate into the water and stir
well.
