Acknowledgements 



No originalih is claimed except in 

 the manner of classification and in the 

 arran.i,'cnicnt of the table, which is 

 lhoii,yht to l)c in the most convenient 

 form for reference. The table is f^iven 

 as biinji the consensus of opinion 

 found in the [niblishcd reports of the 

 dill'ei'cnt experimenters throutihout the 

 I'nited -Slates, supplemented by per- 

 sonal consultation with experts in this 

 line of work, and partially verified by 

 investii/ations made in the insecticide 

 laboratory of the I'nivcrsity of Califor- 

 nia. 'I'he information has been collected 

 from so many sources that individual 

 acknowledgements would involve the 

 incoiporation of an unwieldy bibliog- 

 raphy and could not well be made com- 

 jjlete. (iralefid acknowledgement is 

 therefore made to all of the government 

 and slate expci-iincnt station workers 

 who have contributed a .share in inves- 

 tigating these problems; to the county 

 horticidtural connnissioners, and to my 

 associates, who have made valuable 

 suggestions in the classifications. 



Conclusion 



It nuisl be admitted wilh chagrin that 

 our chemical knowledge of insecticides 

 and fungicides is yd too imperfect to 

 predict with absolute confidence the 

 lesults to be obtained from the use of 

 a new material or an untried combina- 

 tion of materials. The final decision 

 must be made as the result of carefully 

 planned practical field experiments. 

 The table of compatibilities is therefore 

 pi-esented with considerable hesitation 

 Uw the first time, and is offered for 

 your criticism, in order that if any of 

 the classifications are incorrect, or do 

 not correspond with your experiences, 

 the mattei- may be discussed and the 

 faidts corrected. 



Almost the whole world knows of 

 Hood River as a place that produces 

 the best fruits, and all of Hood River 

 Valley should know, and could know, 

 that there is one place in Hood River, 

 under the firm name of R. R. Rragg & 

 Co., where the people can depend on 

 getting most reliable dry goods, cloth- 

 ing, shoes and groceries at the most 

 reasonable prices that are possible.
