CONTROL OF BLISTER MITE
Very Thorough Spraying, Covering
Every Part of Tree, Is Recon-

Early spraying will control the
blister mite on apple trees. The trees
should be sprayed when the trees are

swelling with lime sulphur spray In
about the proportion of one gallon of
the concentrated lime sulphur to nina
