as this, stating that, in his opinion,
one of the largest duties IF the organ
ization was to see that the coming
generation was well versed in the lives
of the great men of the United States.
He said that any man was better cit
zen for studying and following the
lives of the men who aided in estab
fishing the country as it is today.
Walter Ford, chairman of the enter
tainment committee. announced that
dance would be held at the Columbia
Gorge hotel in the near future, similar

of questionnaires, called the LEGION
Census" 1t is urged that all men fill
these blanks out and return to the ad- |
jutant of the Post as soon as possible.
Harry w. Farrell, Post adjutant,

is asking for the adjusted pay, or cash |
bonus. Paid up life insurance leads
the race. with farm and home aid COM

BLISTER MITE
CONTROL ON PEARS
by Leroy Childs)

1t will be necessary to apply the
spray for the control of blister mite on
pears during the next week, in all Sec
tions of the lower valley and a week
or 10 days later in the higher eleva-
tions. In order to be entirely effective
this spray should be on the trees be-
fore the brown husks which surround
the fruit buds, begin to drop. Grow
ers who find it necessary to spray with
oil for the control of the leaf roller
should spray as soon as possible. Oil
cannot be used with safety if the fruit
buds are exposed. as IT burns these
badly if applied late. Oil for the best
results should be used at the rate of s
gallons of oil to 100 gallons of water.
If weather conditions prevent the
immediate use Of oil, this strength
should be reduced to 6-l00 if the buds
are developed to any great extent.
Where u is not necessary to fight the
leaf roller, lime sulphur l-l0 should be
for the control of blister
mite. This has been found to be more
effective in the control Of the mite
than the oil and the application is not
so costly.
All parts Of the trees must be thor.
oughly covered if control is to bo OBJ
tairei.

BORDEAUX OIL SPRAY
(By Leroy Childs)

The Experiment Station has been
working on number of combinations
with reference to the combining of oil
with different fungicides to assist in
the control of anthracnose. The most
effective and lasting of these has been
found to be a Bordeaux-oil combina-
ton, somewhat similar to that sug-
gested by DR.. C. A. Macrum, of Mo
sier, last year. We have found the
following formula, 8 gallons of oil plus
$3.50 Bordeaux, giving the best re-
suits of the combinations thus far
tested. The use of glue apparently
| had little or no value as far as the
sticking of the Bordeaux is concerned.
We have found that the addition of
glue produces little smoother emul-
sion. However, in large number of
tests that have been made, no differ
ences were encountered in mixing the
oil and Bordeaux if care is taken. If
any difference arises in the mixing of
the oil, bluestone and lime, and it
would show in the form of a separa-
tion of the oil. glue should be added to
act as stabilizer. This should be put
in before the oil is added.
The following procedure must be fol-
lowed in mixing the materials:
Place in the spray tank which is
partially filled with water, the desired
amount of bluestone which should be
diluted at the rate of one pound to
each gallon of water, or A pounds to
the 200 gallon tank. With the agitator
running, slowly add the milk of lime.
A total of IL pounds of lime should be
added to 20G gallons in case the rock
lime is used; l5s pounds should be en-
ployed if the hydrated lime is used.
The oil is then prepared for the spray
tank. This. should be emulsified before
placing in the tank by taking equal
parts of water and oil 16 gallons oil
to 200 gallon tank stirring until a
white creamy emulsion is formed.
This is slowly added to the we'll filled
tank with the agitator running. If
glue is employed, it should be added
before the oil is placed in the tank.
This should be used at the rate of Ii
pounds to 200 gallons and should be
dissolved in warm water previous to
use.
1t must be remembered that if re-
suits are to be obtained by this COM
bination thorough work is absolutely
necessary, as all parts of the trees
must be covered, not only to obtain
leaf roller control but to give protec-
tion from anthracnose infection. 1t
must be remembered that this Bor-
deaux has to remain on the trees until
fall, before the spray functions in COLI
trolling anthracnose. For this reason
a liberal amount of material must be |
used on every tree. This will neces-
state wasting some material, but it is |
the only way results can be obtained.
For best all around results consider
ing the control of the leaf roller and |
the brown aphis, the spray should be
applied just as the buds are slightly
bursting. 1t must be remembered, |
however. that the spray is very injuri-
Gus to foliage and must not be applied
if the fruit buds are exposed to any
extent. From present developments
it will probably be safe to make the
oil application until the Goth of the
month. Pick good warm day if pos
;ible.
