The following tables compiled from these reports are interesting: 



Time of application 

 Table I — Results Reported by Growers on Time of Application 



For IQ08 



It will be observed from the above table that of the 17 in 1908 report- 

 ing the application while buds were dormant none had poor results, 

 while among those reporting application after buds began to swell 

 there were some poor results. That these failures may not have been 

 due to the late application is possible, since in 1909, of the few report- 

 ing in regard to time of application, at least two had poor results from 

 spraying during the dormant period. The evidence of the growers 

 therefore, based upon their experience, is in favor of early spraying 

 while the buds are still dormant.
