The particular kind or species of apple
canker may be determined by the
grower by sending a sample, prefer
ably the whole area of small canker
or a section of the limb showing the
margin, to the department of agricul-
ture or the nearest state experiment
station. 1t is not absolutely necessary
in most cases to identify the species,
since the treatment, as far as worked
out, is essentially the same.
The principal method of controlling
apple cankers is identical with pear
blight, as described above. Where the
canker is located on a branch or limb
which can readily be spared, and espe-
cially if it reaches half or nearly half
way around the limb, it is best to saw
the limb off, cutting six inches to a
foot below the lowest evidences of
disease, then disinfect and paint or
apply the coal-tar creosote-oil wound
paint. Cankers located on a large
branch which can not readily be
spared or on the body of the tree may
be eradicated and trimmed out exact
ly as described above for pear blight
areas. using the same methods and
preferably the coal-tar creosote-oil
wound treatment Immediately on
finishing the scar.
Cankers do not require the prompt
reinspection and retrimming as in
virulent pear blight cases. but it is a
good practice to look them over the
following spring and again in the fall,
branch if an occasional failure has
resulted. Some cankers behave rather
differently from pear blight in that
they check up during the growing
period of spring and summer and the
tree attempts to heal them over, then
in the fall and winter the canker
spreads again, killing the margin of
the new growth. This is frequently
repeated several times as the canker
enlarges. Such old cases are rather
mean to work on and usually, though
not always, demand the removal of the
branch.
In very bad outbreaks of apple can
ker, fall spraying with rather thick
Bordeaux mixture, at least as strong
as $3.50, is advisable. This treat
ment is not usually necessary in most
apple districts of the United States.
but If the grower is having a real fight
against apple cankers, the fall eradi-
cation should be made rather prompt
ly soon as the leaves are off, and
the whole orchard should be sprayed
with this mixture. This protects the
tree against most Of the reinfections in
the bark and probably kills the spores
on the surface of the wood and posi-
bly, many minor or incipient cankers.

enough so that the feather on her

small consequently each person was
