This Fact Emphasizes the I'm

Spraying.
When il costs less than 10 cents d
tree TO spray an apple cha the
wonder is that more are not sprayed,
particularly the wonder grows when
il is a proven fact that the crop is
increased from 80 to 900 per cent by
intelligent spraying.
The cost Of spraying is not easy to
ascertain. or to make a general aver

in the orchard sprayed. An orchard

ern machinery, and who has a large
number of trees, can naturally spray
his trees at a smaller cost per tree

lack of equipment in a smaller or
