out the branches and twigs, supple- 

 mented by the sprayings recommended 

 for the other diseases. The applications 

 recommended for scab-control will con- 

 trol the leaf-spot, and those recom- 

 mended for bitter-rot will greatly 

 lessen the losses from black-rot. 



SPRAY SCHEDULES 

 Dormant Tree Spraying: Diu'ing the 

 dormant period of trees sprays may be 

 used much stronger than at other times, 

 and for this reason arc especially ad- 

 visable for the treatment of scale in- 

 sects, blister mite, etc. Applications 

 may be made after the leaves have 

 fallen in the fall, during warm days 

 in the winter, or in the spring before 

 the new growth begins to apnear. 

 Where aphids are troublesome it is 

 often practicable to delay the San Jose 

 scale treatment until just as the buds 

 are breaking, and bv adding nicotine 

 to the strong lime-sulphur sprav effect 

 -• combination treatment for these two 

 insects. 



SUMMER SPRAYING 



First Application: Use lime-sulphur 

 solution at the rate IVj gallons to 50 

 I'allons of water plus 2 pounds or arse- 

 nate of lead paste (or 1 pound or pow- 

 dered arsenate of lead) just before the 

 blossoms open. This is for apple scab, 

 the plum curculio, canker-worms, the 

 bud moth, case-bearers and the tent 

 caterpillar. Add one-half pint 40 per 

 cent nicotine sulphate if apple red bugs 

 are troublesome, and if apple aphids 

 are much in evidence. 



Second Application: Use same spray 

 as in first application as soon as the 

 blossoms have fallen. This is for the 

 above-mentioned troubles as well as 

 for the codling moth and leaf-.soot. It 

 is the most important application for 

 both apple scab and the codling moth. 

 In .spraying for the codling moth at this 

 time, the aim is to drive in the calyx 

 end of each little apple a quantity of 

 the poison, and, to accomplish this, 

 painstaking work is necessary. Failure 

 to do thorou.ah spraying at this time 

 for the codling moth cannot be reme- 

 died by subsequent applications. 



Third Application: I'se the same 

 spray indicated above three to four 

 weeks after the blossoms fall. This is 

 the second treatment for codling moth 

 and leaf-spot, and gives further protec- 

 tion against apple scab and certain in- 

 sects. In orchards in which blotch has 

 been prevalent this application should 

 be made not less than three weeks after 

 the blossoms have fallen. Where this 

 disease has been severe, bordeaux mix- 

 ture (."i-l-.'jO) shoultl be substituted for 

 the lime-sidpliur solution. 



Fourth .Application: Use bordeaux 

 mixline (.3-4-50 fornnila) and an 

 arsenical eight to nine week,s after the 

 petals fall. This is the first application 

 for the second brood of the codling 

 moth and for biller-rot. In orchards 

 in which bitler-rol has been a serious 

 tliseasc this application .should be ad- 

 vanced about one week. 



Fifth Application: Use bordeaux mix- 

 line from two to three weeks after 

 the fourth application. 'I'his is the 

 second application for bitter-rot, and 

 since it is very little extra expense to
