Ilege last week.

life programs as a result of the

attention will be devoted to con-
tinuous demonstration and exhibits.
All farmers and farm women's

Cooling Moth
Sprays Leave
Arsenate Residue

There are good ways of control
ling codling moths on apple trees
without using sprays containing
lead arsenate says DR.. z. P. Met
calf, entomologist of the N. {.
experiment station.
Lead arsenate kills moths, he
said, but it leaves an undesirable
esidue on the apples.
During the winter and spring,
loose scales on the outer bark should
be scraped off the trunk and larg-
er branches. Loose scales should
be caught in a canvas and burn
ed. Trash of any kind under the
tree should also be removed and
burned.
The packing shed should be
made moth-tight, if possible, and
all windows screened in order to
keep from the orchard and moths
emerging from fruit inside the
shed. Containers should be kept
in moth-tight places or dipped in
scalding water sometimes before
spring.
After the trees have been scrap
ed, they may be banded to collect
worms, after the fruit has set. The
new chemically treated bands elm
mate the necessity of weekly col
lection of worms, as is the case
with ordinary burlap bands. Treat
ed bands should be removed in the
fall.
All obviously wormy fruit
should be removed from the tree
to prevent infection of the good
apples. The remaining apples will
attain a larger size when the culls
are taken from the tree. Culls
should be disposed of in a way to
destroy the worms before they
crawl out.
The control of the first brood is
very important. At this time
sprays may be used without dan
ger of leaving heavy residues. The
thoroughness with which the first
brood is killed all determine the
amount of later broods to infest
he tree.
The addition of oil emulsions or
fish oil to the lead arsenate spray
makes it cling longer to the trees:
but should be used only during
he first brood time.
