The Bulletin. 37 



These demonstrations have now been repeated in so many years, and 

 in every section of the State (east, middle and west), until the general 

 results can not possibly be a matter of chance, and these results prove 

 beyond dispute that the spraying of apples is profitable in all sections 

 of the State. 



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 implement 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 are only 

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

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