Show PRACTICAL "DON'TS" FOR BEST SPRAYING Orchardist Must Not Expect Profitable Results If Work Is Not Thoroughly Done. Don't expect results if the work is not thoroughly done. Don't think a week earlier or later than the date recommended is just as good. Don't overspray. A continuous even coating should be left on the fruit and foliage; any material which runs off does no good. Don't think that lime-sulphur will control apple blotch as well as bordeaux bor-deaux mixture. Don't apply bordeaux mixiture during dur-ing wet weather; it is liable to russet the fruit. Don't try to get along with a machine ma-chine which is worn out or too small : to do good work; if the work is worth doing it is worth doing well. Don't fail to clean the machine thoroughly after each spraying; it saves much trouble when the time comes for the next application. Don't think that spraying alone will insure good fruit; pruning and cultivation culti-vation are equally essential. Don't think that spraying will pay unless the fruit is well marketed; spraying is only part of the battle. Don't fail to apply to your state experiment ex-periment station when in spraying troubles. |
