These demonstrations were made in the orchards of actual growers, 

 and were advertised so that all who desired could be present and learn 

 exactly how the work was done. A barrel spraying outfit was taken to 

 each place, and the spray mixtures were made up in the presence of the 

 audience. In each case three or four trees of good bearing size and age 

 were selected and all treatments were given exactly as should be done in 

 regular orchard practice. ISTot a single thing was done nor a single im- 

 plement used that is not entirely practicable for the ordinary fruit 

 grower of moderate or small means. We simply put science to the test 

 on a practical job, and it justified the claims made for it. 



At most places one tree was sprayed on only one side, the other side 

 receiving only what was accidentally blown or thrown upon it. This was 

 to see if we could demonstrate the difference between the sprayed and 

 unsprayed halves of the same tree. In most cases we have carried the 

 work through two or three sprayings, but in others gave only the one 

 treatment to show how the work was done. 



Out of all the demonstrations that were followed out there were only 

 two that failed to give noticeably good results, these being at Mocksville, 

 Davie County, and Eutherfordton, in Rutherford County, both in 1909. 



Where Work Was Done. — The places at which demonstrations were 

 made, followed by later treatments (including 1912), and from which 

 we received reports by the owners, are listed below. In addition to these, 

 we have given single demonstrations (not followed by later treatments) 

 at a number of other places. This does not include demonstrations since 

 1912.
