The most important factors IN the
control are timeliness and thorough
ness of application. Infection appears
to take place during h first pro-
longed cool rain after the buds begin
to swell. and spraying after this time
has not proved effective.
Spraying may be done nny time
after the leaves fall in the autumn
and before the buds begin to swell In
the spring. Experiments conducted
during the past two years have shown
that fall spraying is fully as effective
os spring spraying. Usually also the
weather and soil conditions are more
favorable in the fall. 1t Is therefore
advised that the spraying be done in
the fall as far AS possible.
The spores OF the fungus. 1t Is
thought. remain over the winter
lodged in the hairs of the u scales.
This makes Il necessary 10 wet all of
the buds with the spray mixture. \
fine spray applied to both sides OF the
