Show im hof ESSENCE OF RIGHT SPRAYING mixture must be slammed into troa trao with force enough to penetrate every inch of surface tho the very essence of right spraying Is slamming the material into the tree twigs buds and leaves with forca enough to make it penetrate into every quarter inch of surface all the bark must be wet with the solution it will not do to wet the top surface of the leaf eat and leave the other untouched both sides aides of the leaves must have hava their spray bath of the poisonous mist it if the tree insects are to bo be boded houed satisfactorily missing a few clusters of leaves and twigs or falling failing to get to one limb in the top or in the center cente of a tree will leave a colony of the tree enemies big enough to the whole tree in a very short while it should be all or none for anything less than a thorough spraying is a waste of both time and money and mighty discouraging to boot you have to know the enemies you aro are going out to kill in other words you have to know what to spray for when to spray and how to spray results of spraying with copper lime sulphur two lower apples came came from sprayed tree two upper ca e from an unsprayed tree in next row study all your tree enemies and get well enough acquainted with them that you know them when you see them and know about when to look for them this thing of pulling out the sprayer and starting in hit or miss is not likely to be worth wh what at it costs coats I 1 dont try to fight tree enemies unless you know what they are and when the spraying should be done there are some of these enemies that can be successfully attacked on but a few days in every year you will have to learn to know them at eight and to know when these days come it if you are going to rid your orchard of the pests you ought to be ready for the days when they come because there is little or no time to prepare after the pests make their appearance pe arance learn to know the spraying times and to be able to take full advantage of them and when they come keep the sprayer going from dawn till dark remember you can hardly ever kill the old or the adult bugs with a spraying mixture anyway and that you must strike the young ones to make any progress |
