TESTIMONIALS 



H iLDENBOROUGH. — " Your prepara- 

 tion has been most effectual. We 

 sprayed our Trees all over with it 

 aiid have not a blistered leaf, al- 

 though previously we had several 

 trees completely ruined by blister. 

 Now all trees are completely cured 

 and carry good crops. I also tried 

 it on a liose that is always mil- 

 dewed, and so far it is free also." 



Chevening, Kent. — " I am more 

 than pleased with your Medela, as 

 although I was only able to give 

 the trees one dressing, all those on 

 which I used it are making healthy 

 growth, quite free from blister, while 

 one tree in another position, which 

 I quite overlooked, is a mass of 

 blistered leaves. As our Peach and 

 Nectarine trees have suffered from 

 this disease for a number of years, I 

 look on your Medela as a boon, and 

 congratulate you on its discovery." 



AND MANY OTHERS. 



Scale. — This occurs chiefly on Trees under glass, 

 and should be treated with a solution as for Apples 

 at half strength. 



Shot Hole Fungus {Cercospora circumctssa). — This 

 shows first as small round patches dotted over the 

 leaves of a light yellow colour. The patches eventually 

 drop out, leaving a small round hole with a red edge. 

 It does but little harm beyond limiting the available 

 leaf space, and can be easily treated by spraying 

 with Ammoniaical Solution of Copper Carbonate just 

 as the leaves are expanding, and repeating twice 

 after. Bordeaux Mixture must not be used, as it 

 will burn off the leaves. A wash of half-an-ounce 

 of Sulphate of Potash to one gallon of water is said 

 to cure this attack.
