Bordeaux Mixture Formula.

There are a number Of formulas for
Bordeaux mixture, but the standard
formula now recommended by the ma
tority of experiment stations for use
against most funguous diseases is
-four pounds Of copper sulphate, our
pounds of lime and fifty gallons Of
water. This does not mean that it is
absolutely necessary to make up the
mixture in 50-gallon amounts. If we
need only so gallons of the mixture
then we would use -four pounds each
Of the sulphate and lime End so gal
lons of water. If we need only rs
gallons of the mixture we would use
two pounds each of the sulphate and
lime and 20 gallons of water.
