SPRAYING CALENDAR. 
EXPL ^ KATION. — While the number of applications recommended will be found desirable in seasons 
when the fun^i are particularly tioublesonie, a smaller luimber may often suflicc ; those printed in bold- 
face are of most yalue. and can generally be made with profit. Whenever an asterisk (* ) is used, it 
cautions against spraying with poisons while the plants are in blossom ; a dagger (t) indicates that 
there is danger in making an application within three weeks of the time the fruit is to be used as food.

Do not spray with arsenites or copper compounds within three weeks of the time the sprayed por- 
tions are to be eaten. While there would be no danger of fatal effects resulting, it is best not to run any 
risk. Bordeaux mixture and other lime compounds should not he used upon rough or full-grown fruits 
even as late as that lime. Not only does the lime disfigure the fruit, hut the amount ofcopper is large.
