SOME OHIO SPRAYING RESULTS


When the average orchard owner
who has not been spraying his trees
is preached on the question of spray
ing, quite naturally one of the first
points he raises is. Does it payT
With view to giving an emphatic
affirmative answer to this question
number Of the state experiment sta
tons have during the past three or
four years conducted most instructive
cooperative spraying experiments. in
which the matter seems to have been
given very conclusive demonstration.
OF the above type of experiments
were those conducted by the Ohio sta
ton in 1907. Twelve acres of an or
chard near Amherst were selected for
the experiment, the trees being twenty
feet in height and having about an
equal spread Of top. A few trees were
left unsprayed for purposes Of COM
parisOn. At harvest time $500 bushels
Of perfect apples were gathered. a
conservative estimate of the gain due
to spraying being S1.400. or over 500
per acre, anG this after the cost Of
spraying. amounting to $l25. had been
subtracted. Set, as this orchard was,
in the midst Of many other unsprayed
orchards, the demonstration was very
convincing, and as a result Of the
showing made many orchardists Of
the state were convinced of the practi-
cal value of spraying and took the
work up the following year. The av-
erage of picked sound fruit at harvest
time on all the trees sprayed was
90 per cent. while the same average
for the unsprayed trees was less than
IS per cent. The main f;Ht proved in
connection with this work is that If
one has an orchard which is worth
anything at all he cannot afford to
leave it unsprayed. as so doing will
reduce both the quantity and quality
Of his fruit below the point where he
can successfully compete with the
growers Of clean fruit On the other
hand. If the orchard is too far gone
to justify the expense of spraying, it
were better cut out and converted into
stove wood. as 1t is merely an incum-
brance on the ground.
