THE APPLE LEAF HOPPER 



which the fruit grower or farmer may be called upon to occasionally 

 use. 



First of all the fruit raiser and the farmer must be provided with 

 a pump suitable for his needs, with nozzles, hose and other apparatus 

 adapted to the special work in hand, the nature of the work determin- 

 ing the character of the outfit in each case. A few trees, bushes or 

 shrubs with possibly a hen-house to white wash occasionally, evidently 

 call for a simple and inexpensive article, while acreage in orchard or 

 nursery calls for more elaborate machinery, which may cost anywhere 

 from $15 to $100 or over, and the use of which may be profitably 

 shared by a few neighbors. 



The following is a list of many of the firms who make spray 

 pumps and spraying machinery of all sorts. Any of these parties will 

 doubtless send descriptive catalogues and price lists to any applicant. 

 Some of these first are represented by agents in a number of towns in 

 Minnesota :

The fruit grower or farmer having made up his mind exactly 

 what he needs, should get the best the market ofifers when consistent 

 with what he can afiford. Further, he should purchase his outfit and 

 supplies early enough to be ready for the work of spring and early 

 summer. 



1. Bordeaux Mixture, to which Paris Green or arsenate of lead 

 has been added, making a combined fungicide and insecticide, is re- 

 garded as intimated above, as the viost serviceable, all round material 

 for general use on hearing fruit trees, as well as berry bushes upon 

 which the fruit is not set, the lime of the Bordeaux preventing the 

 Paris green from burning the foliage. Bordeaux mixture, however.
