made to accommodate Italian interests

If Italy should enter the war, it is
understood sho would ask the Ameri-

Notwithstanding all that has been

are many who still do not realize the
fun importance OF such work. True,
there was q time when IL was not

OF profitable crops. but conditions have
changed. The Introduction Of certain
insects and diseases, the necessity for
Q wider distribution OF crops and the
ever increasing demands OF the trade
make II absolutely necessary for the
grower 70 spray II he expects to realize
anything whatever from his trees.
One Of the most persistent and
devastating troubles the orchardist of
today has TO contend with Ii the San
Jose scale This insect. protected by
scaie-like covering. does its damage
by sucking the vitality and life from
the tree or plant. For this reason, the
means for control must be the appli-
cation Of something that viii kin BIZ
contact Concentrated lime-sulphur
and some oil preparations have proved
very effective for this purpose. They
must. however be applied during win
ter while the trees are in q dormant
condition. II applied In the summer,
the strength necessary for the control
OF the scale would injure the fruit and
foliage Scale must be killed II trees
are to 30 kept alive. Left alone. the
insect soon wins out and there In moth

expect to continue IN the orchard husi-

Of new trees and have not fully made
