  are 
  rather

  Six 
  trees 
  were 
  treated 
  

   with 
  this 
  insecticide. 
  The 
  conditions 
  and 
  time 
  were 
  the 
  same 
  as 
  in 
  the 
  

   preceding 
  experiments, 
  with 
  the 
  exception 
  of 
  tree 
  89, 
  as 
  noted 
  below. 
  

   Tree 
  72, 
  a 
  Flemish 
  beauty 
  pear 
  9 
  feet 
  high, 
  was 
  exceedingly 
  infested 
  

   with 
  the 
  San 
  Jose 
  scale. 
  Tree 
  73, 
  a 
  Howell 
  pear 
  12 
  feet 
  high, 
  was 
  very 
  

   badly 
  infested, 
  and 
  tree 
  74, 
  a 
  beurre 
  bosc 
  pear 
  13 
  feet 
  high, 
  was 
  but 
  

   moderately 
  infested. 
  Trees 
  89-91, 
  old 
  Mixon 
  peach 
  trees 
  10, 
  12 
  and 
  

   15 
  feet 
  high 
  respectively, 
  were 
  all 
  badly 
  infested 
  with 
  the 
  scale. 
  There 
  

   was 
  not 
  enough 
  of 
  the 
  insecticide 
  to 
  spray 
  the 
  whole 
  of 
  tree 
  89, 
  and 
  a 
  

   part 
  of 
  it 
  was 
  treated 
  with 
  Good's 
  whale 
  oil 
  soap 
  no.

  Trees 
  72-74 
  and 
  89-91 
  are 
  nearly 
  white 
  with 
  the 
  insecticide 
  

   and 
  appear 
  much 
  drier 
  than 
  those 
  treated 
  with 
  Good's 
  soap. 
  

  

  May 
  II. 
  Tree 
  72 
  is 
  dead, 
  evidently 
  on 
  account 
  of 
  the 
  extreme 
  in- 
  

   festation 
  with 
  the 
  San 
  Jose 
  scale. 
  Old 
  scales 
  are 
  peeling 
  from 
  tree 
  73, 
  

   which 
  is 
  still 
  rather 
  white 
  with 
  the 
  soap. 
  Tree 
  74 
  is 
  also 
  white 
  with 
  the 
  

   insecticide. 
  The 
  blossoms 
  of 
  trees 
  89-91 
  are 
  opening 
  and 
  the 
  young 
  

   leaves 
  are 
  appearing. 
  

  

  May 
  14. 
  The 
  blossoms 
  are 
  open 
  and 
  very 
  abundant 
  on 
  trees 
  73 
  and 
  

   74 
  and 
  the 
  leaves 
  are 
  pretty 
  well 
  out. 
  The 
  blossoms 
  and 
  leaves 
  are 
  

   abundant 
  and 
  starting 
  on 
  trees 
  89-91. 
  

  

  July 
  2. 
  Living 
  young 
  scales 
  are 
  numerous 
  on 
  tree 
  73, 
  and 
  there 
  are 
  

   apparently 
  none 
  on 
  tree 
  74. 
  Very 
  few 
  living 
  young 
  are 
  found 
  on 
  trees 
  

   89 
  and 
  90, 
  and 
  a 
  considerable 
  number 
  on 
  tree 
  91. 
  

  

  July

  Trees 
  72-74 
  and

  gallons. 
  The 
  day 
  was 
  warm, 
  practically 
  

   clear 
  and 
  with 
  a 
  breeze 
  most 
  of 
  the 
  time.

  Living 
  young 
  scale 
  insects 
  are 
  hardly 
  abundant 
  on 
  tree 
  73, 
  

   and 
  there 
  are 
  few 
  or 
  none 
  on 
  tree 
  74. 
  There 
  are 
  but 
  few 
  living 
  young 
  

   on 
  trees 
  89-91.
