Spray Early For San Jose Scale.

Since it has come to be recognized
that orchards infected with San Jose
scale can be protected from injury by
proper treatment, and that they must
be treated or they will become worth
less and even worse than worthless,
from the fact that the insects will
spread to other orchards in the vicin-
ity, the next most important consider
alton is, how can treatment be applied
in the easiest and most economical
way?
The lime sulphur wash is now gen.
erallyrecognized as the standard rem
edy and though it may be trif1e more
effective if applied very late in the
spring, our experiments with it dur
ing the past two years indicate that
fall and winter applications are also
quite effective. The weather at this
time is often quite well suited to spray
operations, while the few weeks of
good weather available for this and
other work in the late spring is not
likely to prove sufficient to complete
it. Therefore, fruit growers will like
ly find the fall and winter application
more satisfactory. We strongly reco-
comend that this wash be applied as
soon as possible after the first of Nov
ember.
Select only the best lime. 1t should
be as free from magnesia and other
impurities as possible, and should be
used while it is fresh. Chemical study
of the wash and the ingredients from
which it is made indicates that much
of the sulphur will be lost if one at
tempts to use impure or air Stacked
lime to prepare it.

No. 1, New Series, just issued by the
