Many of the apple trees in Northern
Michigan are being seriously injured
hy an insect commonly known as Oys-

smaller branches of the trees, and by
sucking out the sap, checks their
growth and sometimes DESTROYS them.
A tree that is badly infested with
this insect Will make but little growth
and produce but limited amount of
fruit The oyster shell scale when full
grown Is about three-sixteenths of an
inch in length, brown of color and
pear shaped. Underneath will be
found a large number of white eggs
from which minute lice hatch in July
which soon settle upon the fruit and
begin TO secrete the shell.
Many of these insects can be de.
stroyed IL the trees are sprayed during
July or August with kerosene emul-
sion made by dissolving one pound of
soap in two gallons of hot water, and
after adding one gallon of kerosene.
churning it together by means of
pump until cream like mass has
been formed. This should be diluted

also be we'll TO spray them as soon as
the leaves are off in the fall. using i've
