Blush, and Fall Pipin apples will repay, four and possibly six applica- 

 tions. Red Astracban can also be profitably treated three times. 

 (Pages 2V5, 276.) 



7. Bordeaux mixture proved to be by far the most effective fungi- 

 cide of those used. Following the Bordeaux in the order of their 

 value are, the ammouiacal solution of copper carbonate, Paris green, 

 fostite. (Page 277.) 



No preference can be given Paris green or London purple in regard 

 to their insecticidal value, provided they contain an equal amount of 

 arsenic. (Page 281.) 



9. Two applications of the arsenites are sufficient to control the 

 ravages of the first brood of codlin moth larv?e. The financial gain 

 derived from later application may be doubtful. (Page 281.) 



10. The arsenites and the fungicides used in the apple orchard appear 

 to be equally effective whether applied alone or in combination. (Page 

 281.) 



11. Paris green and London purple, if applied more than once or 

 twice to foliage, may do serious damage unless their caustic action is 

 neutralized. (Page 281.) 



12. Lime greatly reduced the caustic action of Paris green. (Page 

 281.) 



13. The foliage of varieties of apples susceptible to the attacks 

 of apple scab was kept in a healthy condition by applications of 

 fungicides. (Page 282.) 



14. The size of Fall Pippin apples was practically doubled by pro- 

 tecting them from the attacks of the apple scab fundus. ( Page 283.) 



15. The use of fungicides may intensify the color of apples. ( Page 

 282.) 



16. The keeping qualities of Fall Pippin and Maiden Blush apples 

 were apparently greatly augmented by the applications of Bordeaux 

 mixture which were made to reduce injury from scab. ( Page 283.) 



17. The market value of sprayed apples was increased at least $1.00 

 per barrel by the applications made during this season. (Page 284.) 



18. Bordeaux mixture, when ai)plied to peach trees alone, or in com- 

 bination with London purple, did not injure the foliage. (Page 2S8.) 



1j). The ammoniacal carbonate of copper is very injurious to peach 

 foliage, but the solution may be rendered less caustic by adding lime. 

 The addition of Paris green can then also be made with comparative 

 safety. ( Page 288.)
