Good control was obtained with line-sulphur solution, nicotine 
sulphate, and arsenicals (during blooming), but oil sprays were inef- 
fective.

In France, copper r,ulphate sprays with the addition of 1 1/2 
lb. of pure nicotine or 10 lb. commercial triplumbic arsenate per 100 
gal. of spray have given great success when applied from the time the 
buds open. One treatment was found to be sufficient.

[1813.] THE PEACH-TREE BORER. N. Y. (Cornell) Agr. Expt. Sta. Bull. 
176, pp. 157-233, illus. 1899. 
A brief review of the literature on this insect ( Sanninoidea 
exitiosa Say) shows that tobacco was used in 1813, 1339, suid 1894-1896. 
The author put tobacco stems, as usual, around the base of peach trees 
and obtained variable results. Tobacco kept out from 2/3 to 5/6 of the 
borers during 1895 and 1895, which is decidedly a good showing for the 
method (p. 196-197) .
