VINEYARD SPRAY SERVICE

The Importance of the delayed
dormant spray for grape vineyards,
which should be applied when the
new growth is about one-half inch
in length for the control of anthrac-
nose, dead-arm, and black rot, has
been called to the attention of all
the growers in Kent county by means
of the mimeographed spray notice
which was mailed recently from the
office of County Agent Russell E.
Wilson.
For this application the grape
growers have been advised to use
the 12-12-1OO formula for Bordeaux
mixture which should be applied un-
der a good pressure in order to Sc
cure thorough covering of the vines
with a fine mist spray. This is very
essential in view of the fact that
thethese fungous diseases which
carry-over on the old canes start to
discharge their spores at this stage
of vine growth, and the new wood
must be kept we'll covered during
this period to prevent reinfection
from this source.
The second spray, which is known
as the cluster-break, should be ap-
piled when the new shoots are from
to 6 inches long, or about two
weeks after the delayed dormant
spray. A 6-12-100 Bordeaux mixture
is recommended for this application,
and for each of the other sprays later
in the season. Additional vineyard
spray notices with reference to the
pre-blossom, after-blossom, and 10
day sprays for further protection
against the various fungous diseases,
as we'll as control measures for the
grape berry-moth and leaf-hoppers,
will be mailed to all the growers Ia
ter on when the stages of vine and
fruit growth are ready for these ap-
plIGatiOns.
Another phase of the vineyard
spray service for Kent county during
the coming year consists of dem
onstration to show in which spray,
or sprays, the arsenate of lead is
eth most effective in the control OF
the berry-moth, as some of the lead
ing growers are of the opinion that
the lead should be used in all five
sprays instead of only in the pre-
blossom, after-blossom, and 1O-day
sprays which is in accordance with
the present schedule for spraying
vineyards in this section.
This spraying project, which Will
be conducted in the vineyard of E. G.
Pleasanton under the direction Of
DR.. L. A. Stearns, entomologist OF
the Delaware Experiment Station, in
co-operation with County Agent Will
son, will include division of this
vineyard into seven blocks of equal
size, and each block will receive the
LIQUID Bordeaux to which arsenate
of lead will be added in a different
application. The vines in one block
will receive the regular spray pro-
gram as recommended by the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, while
the lead will be omitted in different
spray for each of the other five
blocks, and the seventh block will
receive the poison in all five sprays.
In addition to this demonstration,
another spraying project with regard
to the control of the grape berry
moth will be conducted this year in
the vineyard Of Ed Willim near Dow

SEED CORN TREATMENT

That the treatment of seed corn
with the dust disinfectants for the
control of the root rot and other
diseases, in addition to stimulating
the termination, increasing the yield
per acre and producing a more solid
corn at harvest, is becoming an ac-
cepted practice among the corn
growers in Kent county is shown by
the fact that at the present time
about One-fourth of the total corn
acreage in the county is being plant
ed with treated seed each year.
Demonstrations to show the eco
nomic value of seed corn treatment
have been conducted in Kent county
during the past four years by County
Agent Russell E. Wilson in coop
Grafton with DR.. ]. F. Adams, Plant
Pathologist of the State Board of
Agriculture and the University of
Delaware, with the result that the
treated seed produced on the aver
age SO bushels more corn per acre
than the untreated seed. In addition
to this increase in yield, it was also
observed each year that the ears
from the treated areas were more
solid and there was less soft and
mature corn than in the remainder
of each of the fields that had been
planted with the untreated seed. AL
though the increase in yield is i'm
portant, the elimination of a large
percentage of soft and Gull corn is
one of the greatest arguments in
favor of seed treatment, and in car
rying out the program Of economic
production.
In order that additional data
might be obtained concerning the
value of this practice, arrangements
have been made by County Agent
Wilson to conduct similar demon
strations on eight farms in Kent
county again this coming year. A
comparison of Semesan Jr. and
Merko dust will be made on four of
these farms, and the Semesan Jr.
alone will be used in the other four
demonstrations, as these two dusts
are the only ones which are on the
market today for treating corn. The
names of those farmers who are CO.
operating in this seed corn treat
ment project will be published later,
as not all of the farms have been Sc
lected for this purpose.
It is recommended that either of
these dusts be used at the rate of
two ounces to a bushel of shelled
corn, and the treatment should be
done in the same manner that wheat
is busted for the control of the
stinlling smut. To secure a thor
ough distribution of the dust over
the seed, therefore, it is advisable to
use a revolving barrel or drum. The
seed may be treated at any time in
advance of the planting season, as
no injury to the seed whatever will
result from the use of these dust
materials. The cost of treating seed
corn by this method will amount to
the nominal sum of three or four
cents an acre, which is a cheap
form of insurance against soft and
immature corn at harvest.
