been absent almost three months with a

NY protection idea Is 20 protect all our
people so as TO provide employment for
over 100000 now idle and relief for
over %, 900 men, women and children
now suffering because the earning power
of families IL idle.

the lime-sulphur. The most suitable
time to get plant lice is in the spring,
just as the buds are turning green at
that time very large percentage of
the eggs will have hatched and the
young lice will not be protected by the
leaves. The lime-sulphur is equally as
effective in the control of the scale
when applied at that time and to a
slight degree may be effective against
the newly hatched lice.
General recommendations,-It is not
necessary to make an application Of
lime-sulphur for the San Jose. scale
alone, If lime,sulphur is used at any
time for the control of apple scab or
anthracnose, the same application wiA
suffice the control of the scale.
In regions where neither of the above
diseases exists, spray with lime-sul-
phur strength, just as the buds are
opening, and if the plant lice (any spe.
cies) have been bad during past sea-
sons, add black leaf 40 at the rate of
one part to nine hundred parts of the
diluted lime-sulphur.
