Show The Spraying Season. As the climate in Southern Utah is much earlier than that in the North, we give the following, which we clip from the Oregon Agriculturist , and Rural Northwest: North-west: "In the last California Fruit' Grower Mr. Leonard Coates, one of the most, successful f urit growers grow-ers of California, says, 'Don't fur-get fur-get to spray with a good fungicide now.' Now is the time because stronger compounds can be used now than after the foliage has started.- There are very .few- fruit trees which do not need a thorough spraying to destroy both fungus and insects and to clean off the moss. For use at this season to destroy both insects and fungus '.- nothing is. better than Spray No. 1 (lime, sulphur and salt) or No. 2 (lime, sulphur ond blue vitriol). Those are the only compounds that effectively destroy the San Jose scale. They also kill the eggs of other noxious insects. The No. 3 is effective in destroying the I Woolly aphis. Either of these ' will clean the moss off the trees , i and are good fungicides. They I are 'carefully, prepared from the best materials and . boiled aud compounded in a way "that no person can equal with ordinary f a-; a-; cilities by David M. Dunne & Co., Corner First and Alder Sts., Port-' Port-' land, and require only to bo dis- ; solved in hot water and diluted according to directions to be-ready for use. Messrs. Dunne fe Co. ' also prepare Bordeaux mixture, resin wash, pur6 whale oil soap 4 etc." j |
