SESSIONAL PAPER No. 16 



better at Falmouth with lime-sulphur-arsenate than with soluble sulphur-arsenate ; at 

 Berwick the control was decidedly better with lime-sulphur-arsenate, and at Bridge- 

 town the soluble sulphur-arsenate gave the best control. As already pointed out the 

 first spray after blossoming at Berwick was followed the next day with sharp rain 

 which may have washed oS some of the spray resulting in the large percentage of 

 scab shown. 



Arsenate of lead at the rate of five pounds i^er 100 gallons was used in each spray. 

 Two sprays were given before and two after blossoming.
