DELAWARE PEACH CROP


The recent cold winter severely
injured the peach crop in many
sections Ct the country and in some
of the noted peach regions the crop
will be almost a total failure. In
view Of the probable. shortage Of
the crop the Delaware peach grow
ers should put forth every effort
to protect their peaches from the
ravages Of curculio and brown rot.
The writer would urge all peach
growers. who have prospects Of a
crop. to give their peaches the fol
ling treatment:
/. Spray all peaches with 2
pounds Of arsenate Of lead and 3
pounds Of freshly slaked lime. This
spray should be applied about 3
weeks after the trees bloom or ust
before the ''shucks' slip off the
young peaches. This treatment is
largely to control the curculio thus
aiding in lessening the "June
drCp.' The curculio stings are
also largely responsible for the en-
trance Of the rot into the peach
tissues.
:. About one month after the
first application spray the peaches
again with self-boiled lime sulfur
(S lbs. sulfllr. 3 lbs. lime and 80
gallons Of water) adding u
pounds Of arsenate Of lead to every
80 gallons Of the mixture.
3. Spray with the self-boiled
lime Sulfur about one-fourth before
the peaches ripen. This will be
about July 9TH to 10Th for Cham
pion and about July 18th t. 25th
for ElFerta. The arserate Of lead
need n't be used at this spraying.
Caution,-Pcach foliage is very
to spray materials and
care should be taken to apply all
sprays in the form Of mist, avoid
ing drcnching the trees. Arsenate
of lead should always have
freshly alaked stone lime added t.
it when spraying peaches. The
writer would suggest the using of
Tri Plumbic arsenate of lead as be-
ing perhaps a little more safe than
the ordinary commercial arsenate
Of lead.
Preparation of self-Boiled Lime
Sulfur.
Weigh out s pounds of stone
lime and place in barrel and pour
on enough cold water to partially
cover it. AS soon as the lime be-
gins to slake add s pounds of sulfur.
All humps in the sulfur should be
broken up. Stir the mixture con-
stantly and add more water. as
needed. to form a thick paste then,
thin paste. AS soon as
the lime is well slaked add water to
cool the mixture and prevent fur
ther cooking. Do not allow the
lime and sulfur to cook over 15 to
20 minutes. Dilute to about 20 gal
Ions and strain into the spray tank.
again dilute to 30 gallons and ap-
ply.
When arsenate of lead is used
with the self-boiled lime sulfur. it
may be added after the lime sui
fur is strained into the spray tank.
All Delaware peach growers are
warned against using diluted com
mercial lime sulfur as spray for
peaches. While in some instances
this material has proven satisfac-
tory it is uncertain in it's action
and is liable to defoIiate the trees.
