ADVISES SPRAY FOR
SEPTEMBER STING"

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
Wallis. Aug. 22.--If Oregon fruit
growers are to protect their apples
and pears from the attacks of cod
ling moth worms that ruined is to
80 per cent of their fruit last year
they will have to have a protective
coat of poison ON the fruit when the
worms emerge for the September
sting" This spray. says A. l.. Low
EFT, station entomologist. should be
applied August 20 to 80 in the Will
lamette valley and similar districts.
The solution recommended by Pro-
fessor Lovett is 10 Sh pounds
powdered lead arsenate--twice as
much paste-to 100 gallons Of water.
Every apple and late pear should be
thoroughly covered with the spray.
EARLY pears will probably not need
the spray unless they are to be left
on the trees well into September.
