1. What is the general effectiveness
Of applications of standard spray m'f-
lures, including Bordeaux, lime su!nr.
and aysenate Of lead, in the control of
fungi and insects OH the apple?
No fact stands out more distinctly in
q study of the data presented than the
general effectiveness Of spraying over
no spraying. Even under the most un-
favorable circumstances, some degree
of benefit has resulted from the appli-
cation Of all Of the standard sprays in
every series of experiments and in
Year after year the sprayed plats have
been conspicuous by their more
healthy and vigorous foliage and by
the freedom Of their fruit from insects
and diseases.
The smallest control exercised over
apple scab as a result of spraying at
least three times with Bordeaux or
Bordeaux in combination with arse
nate Of lead amounted to 81 per cent.
while the largest control amounted to
90 per cent. In six experiments out of
ten, 80 per cent or over of all the scab
which might have appeared in the
sprayed plats was prevented as a re-
suit Of spraying with Bordeaux or Bor-
deaux in combination with arsenate Of
lead. Lime sulfur exercised varying
degrees of control, running from as
low as s per CEN to as high as 100 per
cent. In two experiments out Of fif-
teen, 100 per emf control was OBJ
tanned. In six experiments out of fif-
teen, lime sulfur exercised a control
running above 30 per cent. In five
cases this fungicide prevented less
than SO per cent Of the possible dam
age from apple scab. In no single
case. however, did it fail to exercise
some control over this fungus, and in
those experiments where the poorest
control vas obtained. certain plats
showed an effectiveness varying from
81 to IS per cent.
In twenty-nine experiments ~arsenate
Of lead did not fail to exercise some
degree of control over cooling moth
and %curculio in some one or more of
periments. In four cases, however,
certain sprayed plats in the expert
ment showed more injury than the
check pIats. It WAS observed, how
ever, that in every one If these four
cases tHe totdl INIestdtlOn OF COQllQS
moth was YER small, the largest loss
due to failure Of the spray to control
the insect amounting to 3 per cent Of
the entire crop. Under the circum-
stances in which these slightly incon-
sistent results appear. the inconsist-
ency must be attributed to unequal in
lection rather than to ineffectiveness
OF the spray. The general effectiveness
OF the spray will be seen when it is
noted that in fifteen experiments of
the tw~enty-nine, 90 per cent or better
control of the cooling moth was OBJ
tanned In some Of the plats included.
Curculio was less thoroughly con-
trolled by arsenate Of lead than was
cooling moth. Nevertheless in only
six OF the experiments were there any
plats which failed to show some de-
gree of prevention of injury by reason
Of the application of the spray. Eleven
experiments out of the twenty-nine in
ciuded some plats in which so per cent
or more of the injury was prevented
by the application of the spray.
2. What ore the relative values of
1ordeanx and lime sulfur as sprays TO-,
the apple?

This spray is used particularly fog

ventive of apple scab. Incidentally, il

4. Third Summer duplication.
This is used as an additional precau-
ton against apple scab and codlingI
moth. It is also a safeguard against
~leaf-eating insects, and to some extent
against certain fungous diseases which
appear later in the season. including
blotch, sOoty blotch, fyspeck, and leaf
spot.
This spray should be made about tam
days after the second summer applica-
ton. In large orchards the second
spray would in all probability not b
completed at one end of the orchard
until it was time to commence this
third summer application at the other
The best spray for this application apS
pears to be lime sulfur arsenate of
lead.
5. Fourth SUMMER duplication.
This spray is applied as a safeguard
against apple blotch and codling moth.
1t is applied " to three weeks after
the third summer spray. Bordeaux
arsenate Of lead should be used. 81
6. Filth Summer utilization N
This spray is particular ly for. h
control of the second brood OF codi!n4
moth, and incidentally for the proven
ton Of curcuiio injury, blotch. soot1

It is made approximately ten weekxa
after the bloom, or at times varyin&2
from July l, in the extreme southerYE
part Of Illinois to August 1. in the
northern part of the state. &
For this spray %arsenate Of lead andE
lime should be used. Where fungous
injury is anticipated. Bordeaux arse7

Extra sprays are chiefly used a.
against bitter rot. Whe

casa. and sulfocide. OF these Sulfo-
eide proved unsatisfactory, as, when
used in combination with Paris green,
it severely injured the foliage. Cucasa
proved almost as efficient as Bordeaux,
caused no russeting Of the fruit, but
was somewhat injurious to foliage.
Not being more efficient than Bor-
deaux, this spray was abandoned.
Copper f~errocyanide made by combin-
ing copper sulfate and potassium
cyanide seemed to possess advantages,
both from the theoretical and practi-
cal standpoint, that made it seem ad-
BILE to test this spray somewhat
more thoroughly. However. the re-
suits thus far obtained do not warrant
recommending copper ferrocyanide
other than in an experimental way.

~. Does arsenate of lead 7chen added
TO Bordeaux or lime snlfM increase he,y
fnngiciddl pdlue!?
1t was concluded that the addition
of arsenate of lead to lime sulfur in
creases its fungicidal value, while the
addition of arsenate of lead to Bor-
deaux does not improve the fungicidal
value of the resulting spray.
13. IRE there differences bet7oeen
varions brands of ~arsenate of lead avhich
7conH make one brand more useful than
another, either alone. or in combination
avih the standard fu~ngicides?
Relatively unimportant differences
were found among various brands Of
arsenate of lead. Arsenates of lead
were more efficient used in combina-
ton with the fungicides than alone,
and aused less foliage injury.

dents room. at the entrance Of which
a number Of automobiles had been
brought up in line for their reception:
Guarded by Troops
When the signal was given for the
start the cavalry guard closed around
and enveloped the party. This was
the same guard which President Will
son had chosen as his personal escort
on the occasion Of the last Inaugural
tion, and the troops were disposed IN
the same way as on that occasion, so
as 10 afford the extreme measure OF
protection to the visitors.
AS the party started on its way up
Massachusetts avenue the crowds
burst into cheers and applause. 10

route lay up Massachusetts avenue TO-

fare for some years known ohlclally as
"Av,nue of the Presidents" to the pa
lalial MacNcagh homestead, just be-
yond the crest Of hill and within
few hundred yards of the white
French embassy building. Passing the
latter the visitors were greeted by Am
bassador Jnsserand who with Madame
.Iussprand and the full staff Of the EN-
bassy, saluted them at the portico
over the entrance. Tho salute was re-
turned by the entire party.
The Only MishaP.
After the official party had left the
Presidents reception room at Union
station and the troop Of cavalry act
ing as rear guard had begun its march,
the only incident which served to mar
the occasion in the least occurred. A
! horse belonging 10 one of the troopers
slipned on the smooth street surface
and lunged into tho crowd which had
lined the route Of the procession. Inc
trooper LOST his seal. but retained con-
! troll of his mount. \ negro was slight

fetal Dairy was some distance ahead,
and none Of It's members knew Of the
incident.

said that Mr.. Balfour was tired out by

as possible until tomorrow.
