Spraying Of Pecan Trees Necessary.

There are a good many self
styled tree doctors that neither
studied botany or entomology,
and who, perhaps, have obtained
a smattering knowledge of the
treatment of trees from some Tree
Expert WITH CREDENTIALS, and
have seen him do the scientific
care.taking of various trees, then
start out in the work of doctoring
trees themselves. telling the com.
munity they do the same work as
the expert, and for less money.
They never spray the trees, as
a spraying machine is an expen-
sive article, and spraying is the
only possible way of eradicating
the various insect pests, which are
go plentiful in this State. Insects
such as the Twig Girdler, Bark
Beetle and all the various varie.
ties of Lichen Moss and the hume.
rous caterpillars are at work on
the tree tops, consequently spray
ing is the one and only effective
remedy for insect pests. It is not
in the scraping of of the dead
tissue on trees nor the checking
back that does the work, it's
spraying that does it.
