Text Appearing Before Image:
1908 FRUIT BRANCH. 97 the trees were thrifty and produced an excellent crop of high class fruit. We hope to continue this test for several years as an illustration of the effects of tillage. Important Seedling. Apple No. 1. A seedling apple, was furnished by Mr. A. H. Culp, of Louth Township. Fruit medium, oblate, conic; color, yellow, splashed and mottled with bright crimson, handsome; stem, medium and slender, set in deep cavity. Calyx closed in shallow, smooth basin; thin skin; flesh, yellowish white; fine, juicy, mildly flavored subacid, slightly aromatic, good flavor, quality very good; season, November. May be use- ful to follow Gravenstein.
Text Appearing After Image:
Offices, Laboratories and Directors' Residence at Horticultural Station, Jordan Harbour. The orchard used for culture tests was also used for spraying tests for codling worm. Arsenate of lead, Paris green and the Norfolk Fruit Grow- ers' formula : 1st spraying when buds begin to swell with 20 lbs. blue vitriol, 60 lbs. lime, and 200 gallons of water. 2nd, spraying just before buds break open; and third, spraying just as soon as blossoms fall with 12 lbs blue vitriol, 12 ozs. Paris green, 12 ozs. white arsenic, 2J lbs. sal soda, 50 lbs. lime, 200 gallons water. Always use 10 lbs. water to the gallon. These were all used, and the results seem to indicate that any of them will control the first brood of worms if properly and thoroughly applied. The arsenate of lead appears to cling to the foliage rather better than the others, and does not require the addition of lime to make it adhere to the leaves. Paris green when used with Bordeaux mixture gave fairly satisfac- tory results. Norfolk Fruit Growers' compound, while requiring somewhat more care in preparation gave excellent results. Three sprayings were used in all cases and the result was fruit comparatively free from worm. Some patent formulas were used in a neighboring orchard for San Jose Scale, but we are not in a position to state definitely their relative merits from one year's test. 7 F.B.
