 our apples? Will late spra}'ing- with Bordeaux pre\'ent it?'' 



Mr. Cox: \'ou can pre\ent it by late and thorough 

 spraying. I know that from my own experience. 



Prof. Gullev : You can control it b}' spraying, Init not 

 by one or two sprayings in July. Take it with our Greenings 

 last season, up to August there was not a showing of it. but 

 from then up to picking time the fruit was covered with it. I 

 am sure if we spray thoroughl}- and late A\ith Bordeaux we 

 shall find it will have a ver}- marked effect on all the trees, and 

 }()U must do the same for the codling moth too.
