Fungous Diseases 
Fungous diseases attack many of the com¬ 
mon garden plants and produce more or less 
severe damage. All such plants will be more 
vigorous if sprayed occasionally with a good 
fungicide. Either the copper or sulfur com¬ 
pounds are effective controls. 
SprayCop —A very welcome substitute 
for Bordeaux Mixture. SprayCop con¬ 
tains nearly 3 times as much copper as 
Bordeaux Mixture and may be sub¬ 
stituted for it at one third the rate 
with superior results. SprayCop mixes 
in the spray tank with greater ease, 
contains no free lime and may be com¬ 
bined with any other spray materials, 
does not discolor foliage as much as 
Bordeaux Mixture, has a wider margin of safety. 
One pound makes 20 gallons spray. 6 lb. bag, 
$1.80; case of 48 lbs., $12.24. (Cost per gallon 
prepared spray—24c). 
Sulfur —(Wettable)—Effective general 
fungicide for most fungous diseases 
encountered in the garden. Wets im¬ 
mediately upon addition to water 
and is easier and more pleasant to 
use than a dust. Very effective con¬ 
trol for Red Spider. Use 4-5 lbs. to 
100 gallons water, or as a dust. 2 lbs., 
35c; 5 lbs., 55c; 24 lbs., $2.50.

pecially for dusting plants for disease and red 
spider and mite control. 3 lb. canister, 50c.

SPRAY SCHEDULE 
Hawthorns and Crab-apples —(spray only 
in spring) 
Apply first spray as leaves are emerging from 
buds. Apply four or more sprays at 8 to 10 day 
intervals as long as galls on Red Cedar produce 
gelatinous material following a rain. Spraying 
;'ust preceding or immediately following a rain is 
most effective.

Apply first spray about August first or when 
spore stalks develop on under side of leaves of 
hawthorns and crafi-apples. Follow with 2 or 3 
sprays at intervals of 2 or 3 weeks as long as 
spores are being produced by hawthorns and crab- 
apples.

fur. Linco-Colloidal Sulfur is the most satis¬ 
factory control for Cedar-Apple Rust. When

high degree of control of this disease on orna¬ 
mental hawthorns and crab-apples and on red 
cedars. Linco-Colloidal Sulfur is also an excel¬ 
lent General Fungicide for use throughout the 
garden and furnishes a most effective and eco¬
