SPRAY SCHEDULE 



First application: About a week be- 

 fore the blossoms open or when the 

 shoots are 12 to 18 inches long, spray 

 with bordeaux mixture, 4-3-50, for 

 fungus diseases, adding 2 to 3 pounds 

 of arsenate of lead paste, or one-half 

 that quantity of the powdered form, 

 for flea-beetle, rose chafer, etc. 



Second application: Just after the 

 blossoms fall, spray with the same 

 materials as in the first application for 

 the same fungus diseases and insects 

 and for the grape berry moth, grape 

 leaf folder, and adults of the grape 

 rootworm. 



Third application: About two weeks 

 later use bordeaux mixture 4-3-50, arse- 

 nate of lead paste 2 to 3 pounds, 40 

 per cent nicotine sulphate 1 part to 

 1500 parts of the spray mixture, for 

 fungus diseases, berry moth, light-spot- 

 ted forester, grape leaf folder, brown 

 grape aphis, grape rootworm, and grape 

 leaf hopper. To destroy the leaf hop- 

 per, direct the spray against the lower 

 surface of the leaves. To control the 

 berry moth thoroughly coat the grape 

 bunches with the spray. 



Fourth application: About 10 days 

 later, or when the fruit is nearly 

 grown, if black rot or mildew are still 

 appearing, spray with neutral copper 

 acetate or verdigris at the rate of 1 

 pound to 50 gallons of water. 



Fruit Juices for Jelly Making 

 Without Sugar 



Fruit juices for use later in jelly 

 making can be sterilized and bottled 

 without sugar and made into jellies at 

 the housewife's convenience. This en- 

 ables her to do with fewer jelly glasses 

 and to distribute her purchases of 

 sugar for jelly making through the 

 year. Moreover, with the bottled juice 

 she can make a greater variety of 

 jellies, as juices which will not jell 

 can be put up when the fruit is ripe 

 and combined later with fruits that 

 will jell, or fruits ripening at different 

 seasons can be combined. For example, 

 the juice of strawberries, cherries or 

 pineapple can be kept without sugar 

 and later when apples are plentiful can 

 be made into combination jelly. 



From the unsugared sterilized juices 

 of currants, apples, crabapples and 

 grapes, kept from 9 to 18 months, the
