Dusting vs. Spraying Fruit Trees 
Three years ago wc began using dust 
on apples. At that time I had to buy 
either a new spray rig or a duster, and 
decided to get a duster. I know I could 
get over the ground faster with it, and 
having about 80 acres to cover, speed was 
necessary. The next year, as I was not 
entirely satisfied, dusting being still in the 
experimental stage, I bought another 
spray rig. I will give the results of my 
work for each year. 
The work in 1017 was carried on with 
the help of the Farm Bureau. We took 
an orchard of about six acres of Baldwins 
and Greenings, 40 years old, but well 
trimmed; divided the orchard into two 
blocks and a check row. The orchard 
received the following treatments. Where 
dust and spray were both used, both were 
applied at the same time. 
1. The whole orchard received delayed 
dormant spray, lime-sulphur one- 
eighth and 1.5 pints Black-leaf, 40 to 
a 200-gal. tank. There were two 
applications, one from each side of 
tree, to control scale and aphis. 
2. Pink spray when blossoms just show 
pink: 
(a) Dust used, 00 per cent sulphur, 10 
per cent arsenate, 2 lbs. per tree. 
(b) Spray used, lime-sulphur, 1-40, 
with 5 lbs. powdered arsenate 
of lead to a 200-gal tank, 7 gals, 
per tree, two applications, one 
from each side of tree. 
3. As blossoms foil: 
(a) Dust used, 85 per cent sulphur. 
15 lead arsenate, 2 lbs. per tree. 
(b) Spray used, same as No. 2; 7 gals. 
per tree, two applications, one 
from each side of tree. 
4. About two weeks later: 
(a) Dust used, same as No. 2, 2 lbs. 
per tree. 
(b) Spray used, same as No. 2, 7 gals. 
per tree, two applications, one 
from each side of tree.

The work in 101S was very unsatisfac¬ 
tory. All orchards received the delayed 
dormant spray as in 1017. Some of the 
sprayed orchards and some of the dusted 
orchards made equally good showings. Til 
some of the dusted orchards where T was 
not. on the job myself the results were 
very poor, especially on the back sides. 
No actual data were kept. We found, 
however, that cherry leaf-spot could he 
perfectly controlled with dust. 
In 1010 three different blocks of apples 
were observed. All orchards had the de¬ 
layed dormant spray, some with lime- 
sulphur and some with miscible oil. The 
first block was au orchard of 12 acres, 
mostly Greenings, about 60 years old. 
It was sprayed 10 times, five from each 
side. The applications were made in the 
pink, the calyx and afterwards at inter¬ 
vals of about two weeks, using lime-sul¬ 
phur 1-40, with 10 lbs. arsenate of lead 
paste; 1.684 barrels of fruit were picked. 
This fruit packed about 30 per cent A 
grade. 12 per cent culls and the rest un¬ 
classified. Yet this orchard attracted 
much atteution early in the season and 
was considered proof positive of the su¬ 
periority of spray. As the season ad¬ 
vanced it did not make as good a showing, 
and it was found that in the tops of the 
trees nearly all the fruit was poor. It 
belonged to a neighbor, and I purchased 
and packed the fruit. The second block 
was made up of over 20 acres of orchards, 
old and young, with trees of every variety. 
It was dusted 10 times with mixtures 
90-10 and 85-10-5, and also with dusting 
sulphur without arsenate. It was sprayed 
three times with lime-sulphur 1-40 and 
5 lbs. arsenate of lead to 200 gals. Over 
2.000 barrels of fruit were picked iu these 
orchards, aud the fruit packed about 50 
per cent A grade, four per cent culls aud 
the i-est unclassified. The third block was 
the same orchard which was used iu the
