54 SPRAYING CROPS 



Own a spraying pump yourself. If you have to 

 wait to borroiv your neighbor's, the chances are that 

 you will begin too late. 



Spray in time; fogin early ; do not wait until the 

 horse is stolen and then try to lock the door by 

 spraying. 



Do not spray indiscriminately, anything ani 

 everything. Adapt your means to your ends. Study 

 Ihe enemies of your crops and then fight them 

 intelligently. 



Of two mixtures equally effective, choose the one 

 least liable to injure foliage. Take the trouble to add 

 a little lime to Paris green or London purple mixtures. 



Never spray ripening fruit. 



Always remember that spraying requires the 

 exercise of skill, judgment and knowledge, to get the 

 best results.
