spots could be found on any of the 

 canes in the plot, ^^'he^e but one 

 spraying was made the disease was not 

 serious, but of course more common 

 than when more treatments were 

 applied. 



Bordeaux mixture gave nearly as 

 satisfactory results as three applica- 

 tions of lime-sulphur so far as the canes 

 were concerned, but the foliage was 

 quite badly burned by the last appli- 

 cation. 



Soluble sulphur did not give as satis- 

 factory results as lime-sulphur or bor- 

 deaux mixture. 



Where copper sulphate solution was 

 used anthracnose was nearly as abun- 

 dant as in the unsprayed row. The 

 foliage was burned quite badly by the 

 summer application. 



Three applications of lime-sulphur 

 gave very satisfactory control of an- 

 tracnose in both 1914 and 1915 without 

 any indication of foliage injury. 



One dormant application of lime- 

 sulphur gave good control in 1914, but 

 was not so satisfactory in 1915. 



Soluble sulphur did not give satis- 

 factory control, although the disease 

 was checked to some degree. 



Bordeaux mixture gave fair control 

 in 1915, but not in 1914. When made 

 by the 4-4-50 formula it is not always 

 safe to use because of foliage injury. 



Copper sulphate solution failed al- 

 most entirely to control the anthrac- 

 nose. It also burned the foliage quite 

 badly. 



The raspberry spraying experiments 

 were continued in 1917 at Leslie in a 

 field of Plum Farmer belonging to E. W. 

 Potter. 



The plants had been set five years 

 and were quite badly diseased with 

 anthracnose. There were sixteen rows 

 about twenty rods long. 



Materials used: As the results ob- 

 tained at Eaton Rapids in 1914 and 1915 

 indicate quite strongly that lime-sul- 

 phur will give as good or better results 

 than anv of the other materials used,
