For apple scab use Bordeaux
mixture 3.3-5.O-that is three
pounds of copper sulphate and
three pounds of good rock lime
with fifty gallons of water. The
trees should be sprayed three
times: First, just before the
blossoms open; second, just after
the blossoms fall, and third, from
ten days to two weeks later. All
three applications should be
thoroughly made. 1t is customary
to apply an iusecticide, either
Paris green or arsenate of lead,
with the Bordeaux.

both went TO Shepardson's home and

own home and Monday morning carried
him to Battleboro TO consult DIR. IN,

he was then taken and examined by Dr.
