To Avoid Washing For
Residue

Where rains prevail to lessen the residue problem
and washing wiping of apples is not practiced,
the amount of arsenic that does remain borders
close to the Tolerance allowed that it is extremely
annoying.
To help overcome this condition, spray with FLUXIT
in every insecticde fungicide spray (even where
excess amounts Of lime calcium suphide is used)
and two weeks prior to harvest Cor sooner) spray
the fruit with pound of FLUXIT to 100 gallons
of water (nohing else added unless nicotine to help
give additional control without residue). Use plenty
of spray solution and spray thoroughly. Spray the
tops of the trees first then finish the lower
branches. Aim to hit into the stem ends of the ap-
pies. This is best done by using long spray rods
with angle noEzles Spray from towers spray
tank for tall trees. Spray with high pressure. Re-
moving the residue by spraying gives the fruit much
better color It colors quickly and with better finish.

Jr.. vice president of Brakeleys, rs
designed primarily to enlighten the
housewives of America on the ad-
vantages. varieties and uses of can
ned foods.
"The programs have been on the

"Tb.y include practical and help

1oror,inent guest speakers and cleV-
or ramas are used to illustrate
nractical applications of canned
foods in the kitchen of the ind1vld-
val housewife. ou.
'4AIthough the Hour OF the Canny
Cobl, has only been on the air toul
wdeks. it has already shattered rec
ofIs for winning in so short tllnt
s%ch unusual popularity. Not Only
- the total number of letters i'm
Isressive. but the true interest in the

Eignifcant. It is truly revelatlon tC
t+be snonsors of the program to dis
Lower the important part that can

life of the American housewife. Inc

T received thousands of requests tol
snecial recipes, numerous inquiries
Tegarding varieties of canned FOODS
and all letters indicated an almosl
universal interest in this importan
subject" continued Mr.. Draper.
"It gives to the sponsors of these
nrograms a feeling of real satlstac
tion to realize that they are putting
on, a radio program that is such al al
imnortant contribution to more ell
fdient home-making, a program ina
Isl eagerly looked for and truly P ap
