short crop. The canners, not to be 



behind in the race, are out with $35 

 and $40 offers for green stock and 

 are buying from all comers. There 

 is but little hold-over stock. An esti- 

 mate made last week gives only fifty 

 carloads in all for the entire San 

 Joaquin Valley, not enough to cut 

 much of a figure in the market, hence 

 the eastern consumers will have to 

 pay a little extra this year, especially 

 since there is a reputed prospect of 

 a big shortage in the eastern crop, 

 which must be taken into calculation. 



NEW YORK AGRICULTURAL EX- 

 PERIMENT STATION. 

 BULLETIN 273. 



The San Jose scale is still with us: 

 and only increasing, careful work will 

 prevent its destructive spread in many 

 fruit sections of the State. A timely 

 word on the subject is given in Bulle- 

 tin No. 273 of the Station at Geneva. 

 The experiments conducted by the 

 Station in 1904 and 1905 indicate that 

 the lime and sulphur wash, boiled by 

 fire or steam, is the most reliable of 

 all remedies so far tested; and that 

 this mixture is safe to use. in most 

 cases, as a fall, or as a winter and 

 spring application. 



The kerosene-limoid combinations 

 have not proven effective in Station 

 tests: and in many cases have caused 

 injury. 



The miscible. or soluble, oils, as rep- 

 resented by Scalecide. have given 

 some good and some unfavorable re- 

 sults. They require further testing 

 before they can be recommended.
