Table 6 shows that two Early Black plots gave a reaction to calcium 

 arsenate like that produced by lead arsenate. These plots were sprayed 

 June 22, July 27 and August 20, the insecticide being used at the rate of 

 4 pounds to 50 gallons of water, without soap. Five or 6 bushels of fruit 

 from each of these plots and each check were stored.
