Our Specialties are 



Apples, Pears, Navel Oranges 



than ordinary cider, but whicli will 

 Iceep 'luicli belter. In the conceutrateii 

 juice, liowever, llie presence of sugai' 

 and acid retards the growth of micro- 

 organisms and fermentation is very 

 slow. 



Similar methods are now being tried 

 out with other fruits. In the case of 

 grape fruit-juice, for example, concen- 

 tration to a syrup by freezing is easily 

 accomplished, and it appears at the 

 present time that there are great com- 

 mercial possibilities in this method, 

 although further experimentation is 

 considered necessary. In the case of 

 fruits whose juices do not suffer any 

 change of flavor or color in the process 

 of sterilization, this method is not likely 

 to prove necessary. 



Details of the experiments, with a 

 discussion of the effects upon the vari- 

 ous fruits of sterilization, exposure to 

 atmospheric oxygen after sterilization, 

 storage at low temperatures, etc., are 

 contained in a new bulletin of the 

 United States Department of Agricul- 

 ture, No. 241, "Studies on Fruit Juices." 

 — U. S. Department of Agriculture Bul- 

 letin. 



BORDEAUX MIXTURE 



Bordeaux mixture is the standard fall 

 spray for use on apple and pear trees 

 to control Anthracnose; on peach trees 

 and other stone fruits to control Peach 

 Blight, Shot-hole Fungus, etc.; and to 

 control Anthracnose on grape vines, 

 raspberries, etc. 



"ORCHARD BRAND" Bordeaux mix- 

 ture paste is made from high grade 

 materials, combined by chemical pro- 

 cesses and put up in paste form. The 

 paste, as sold, is ready for use and 

 dilutes readily in water, thus over- 

 coming the necessity of dissolving blue- 

 stone, slaking lime, diluting the two 

 separately and mixing together after 

 dilution. It is l'NIF"ORM in composi- 

 tion, and when properly applied is an 

 EFFI^CTIVE treatment for the control 

 of the troubles mentioned above. 



It is, in reality, a more ECONOMI- 

 CAL preparation to use than the usual 

 home-made mixture. The various in- 

 gredients are so combined as to give the 

 greatest efhciency, and this is possible 

 only by chemical exactness. The slight 

 dilTerenee in cost between this and Ihe 

 i-aw materials for making Bordeaux 

 mixture at home is more than offset by 

 Die INCREASED EFFICIENCY of the 

 ]Mepared paste, the prevention of waste 

 by improper combinations, the saving 

 of labor in making and the cost of 

 maintaining mixing and storage tanks. 



In addition to this we have a full 

 line of "ORCHARD BRAND" Spray 

 Materials of best quality, including 

 Liiiie-Sulphm- Solution, .Vfomie Sulphur, 

 Aisciiale of Lead, ])aste and powder. 

 Soluble Oils and Oil Enudsions. Full
