While the proper strength is very
essential, much Of its effectiveness is
lost if not properly applied. The ma
ture of the blistermite is to congre-
gate under the bud scales and around
the buds, hence every bud on the tree
must be thoroughly drenched. To aid
in this use casiene spreader which
helps the lime-sulphur to form an
unbrOken film around each insect and
bud scale which shelter the insect
and hence cuts off the oxygen supply
which they must have to exist. In
other words each bud is enveloped In
a film OF spray, thereby suffocating
all insects depending on oxygen for
existence. While spraying the apples
don't forget that blistermite also at
lacks pears. While San Jose scale is
partial to all soft fruits. Also this
lime and sulphur solution is the
proper spray for peach leaf curl, a
peach twig borer, and with the addi-
ton of 1-2 pit Black Leaf 40 to 100
gallons of spray is effective against
woody aphis. Only one warning need
be sounded here in connection with
lime-sulphur spray. Do not combine
oil sprays Of any description or soap
with lime-sulphur because of chem
ical reaction which takes place. Cas-
inc is a strictly neutral product and
very beneficial in putting on an eff
fective dormant spray, but expert
menting with other spreaders should
be discouraged.

THE DORMANT SPRAY.

Growers, do not forget the dormant
spray. The time for application is any
time you can haul sprayer through
your orchard and any time before the
buds swell. A few dollars expended
now will save hundreds for you II
you have blistermite or scale In your
orchard. II you neglect this spray,
your orchard may be a menace to
the orchards in your community and
means of spreading these trouble
some and dangerous pests. Let us
profit by the experience of older ap-
pie districts, and not wait until
blistermite puts us out Of business,
but make a thorough cleanup now.

WILL HELP ENFORCE LAW.

At the last meeting of the local post
American Legion a committee was ap-
pointed to assist Marshal e. G. Well
don in enforcing the law against un-
authorized wearing of the United
States uniform.
This law is being enforced through
out the country, and recently move
ment has been inaugarated in north
ern Washington to see that it is no
longer violated in this section. The
action Of the local post is in line
with similar action elsewhere. The
uniform symbolizes service to the
country, and the purpose Of the law
enforcement is to see that no one who
failed or refused to give service when
most needed be permitted now to dis
guise that fact by wearing uniform.
