TOMATO LEAF BLIGHT
Heavy Losses May be Avoided by
Spraying.

Il wouldn't grow tomatoes in a
ight-ipfested region without spray
ing" says S. L. Dodd, Jr., Extension
Pathologist for the United States De
partment of Agriculture and West
Virginia Agricultural Experiment
Station, who sprayed tomatoes for
the control of blight in six counties
of West Virginia in 1918. Thorough
spraying was the keynote of his
success He made six, and in some
fields seven applications, using spray
mixture at the rate Of $50 gallons an
acre for mature plants. Spraying
improved color and solidity of fruit,
reduced rot and sunscald, and in
creased the yield Of ripe fruit 80
per cent, and of both green and
ripe fruit, 55 per cent.
A small knapsack compreSSedair
sprayer was used in this work. Such
sprayers are light, easy to operate,
eral different kinds, varying some
what in shape and construction, but
built on the compressed-air princi-
pie, are now offered for sale.
| The spray formula used was 5-5-3-
| so Bordeaux soap mixture, composed
of pounds copper sulphate. 5
pounds stone lime, pounds resin
fish oil soap, and so gallons of water.
To reduce the work of preparing
spray mixtures the following stock
solutions were made: Five pounds
of copper sulphate (blue stone) was
dissolved by suspending it in wood
en- vessel containing gallons of wa
ter Copper sulphate corrodes iron
and tin Five pounds of stone lime
! (quick-lime) was slaked in another
vessel by slowly adding water at
first and later increasing the volume
to gallons. Three pounds of resin
fish oil soap was diluted in a third
vessel by stirring it in hot water un-
til thin and increasing the volume to
gallons by adding water of ordi-
nary temperature.
These stock solutions keep indefi-
nitely if not mixed or weakened by
rain, but the lime should be covered
to prevent drying out and air-slak-
ing. The level of the liquid when
freshly made and after each spray
period should be marked on each yes
sci, and water added when needed to
restore loss by evaporation.
Ten gallons Of spray mixture are
uaeuared by taking one sallon OF
each freshly stirred stock solution
and increasing it to 1-3 gallons by
adding water, and by pouring togeth
er and stirring the three diluted So
lutions thus made. The resulting
mixture is ready for use as soon as
strained and should be used while
fresh, as it deterioartes by standing.
