At the time of commencing these investigations the 
Department of Agriculture of New South Wales’ recom- 
mended a dilution of one gallon of concentrated lime-sulphur 
solution of 34 to 35 degrees Baumé to 12 gallons of water 
for winter use, and of one gallon concentrated lime-sulphur 
solution to 50 gallons of water for summer use. 
This would 
give for winter use a fluid of 1°0237 to 1°0246, or 3°24 to 3°37"
