Nicotine or white oil emulsions will kill numbers of eggs or 
newly hatched larvae of the oriental.- peach moth (Cra pho'litha molosta 
Busck). The nicotine may he incorporated into the regular spray 
schedule for peaches, hut for the later varieties one or t-vo addition- 
al applications are necessary. ■

Nicotine is considered a negligible factor in the results oh- 
tained. Part of an orchard was sprayed five times with 40-perccnt 
. nicotine sulphate 0:800) and hydrated lime (at rates varying from 60 
to 100 lb., to 200 gal.) and once with the lime alone, at intervals of 
about 10 days from May 1 to June 27, 1928.

A spray of hydrated lime and 40-percent nicotine sulphate was 
unsatisfactory because this combination resulted in the nicotine being 
freed too soon. The addition of various insecticides to the lime spray 
increased its efficiency; 58 percent reduction in twig injury was oh- 
c r '.ined with the addition of 10 lb. tobacco fish-oil soap, and 77 percent 
reduction with Volck (2 percent) and 40-percent nicotine sulphate (1 to 
800).

Nicotine sulphate and white oil emulsions failed to secure com- 
plete control against the first brood eggs of ( Laspeyresia. ) G-rapholitha 
molesta Busck. Fruit counts in an orchard sprayed with nicotine sul- 
phate showed about 21 percent of the fruit injured.
