Tree Warden George Bishop has
been busy this week spraying trees
and shrubs infested with San Jose
scale. He has provided himself with
apparatus for spraying fruit trees of
such a height as to make useless the
ordinary hand sprayer. State Nursery
Inspector M. b. Cummings of Burling
ton has pointed out the necessity of
spring spraying and that it must be
done before the blossoms arrive else the
birds will transmit the scale on their
feet in such quantities as to render
such treatment of little value. Mr.
Bishop finds that practically all prop.
ertY owners are anxious to have their
trees and shrubs treated by spraying.
