The Peach Blight and tho Apple Anthracnoso tire not so avdII con trolled by limo-snlphur as by Bor deaux mixture, and for this valley, where infection is considered serious through lack of previous year's spraying, lime-sulphur i never rcco mended. In the ciihe of Peach Blinh where the fruit is liable to hcron.r infected, it is to be understood tint the self-boiled lime-sulphur mixture is the one recommended. Since we consider, for this valley, lime-sulphur as a dormant spray to be applied to the trees as late as possible in the spring before the buds begin to open, and at that time in- w'su to "M'ly ' so 1,s to l'oulrol no troductory portion of this bulletin, ! lime-sulphur, or, at leat. oiuo oj , its various forms, vh'cn have Iiceni explained, has taken, to a tcry groat extent, the place of Bordeaux l.tixturei as a fungicide. Of course, it nasi its limitations, and it niiis; be used I with considerable caution as to not to cause injury to deticat.3 foliage. In the Rogue Hiver Valley, the mat ter of foliage injury need scarcely concern us as our climatic conditions are so favorable that apples and pears have no summer fniuroiis di seases, such as scab of the fruit and Lonn nnst huf Kovurnl. it is advisable - - w f . - - ...

In looking over nmnj of the bulletins which give direction for the use of limo-snlphur as an in secticide, tho (reatmenl or control o the San .lose scale has been tho mail ' idea. The recommendations ns ' I the time of application and strong' I of mixture lo be used arc usually a' 1 variance with our needs in this val- j ley. For instance, for spring spray- ing our aim should bo lo control , not only tho Snn Joso scale on tin 1 npplc, but also, in so far as possible i ii i.. i- i.:.. ...i ji. .....,.. .leaves, leaf spots, bitter rot, and ,m """'-.

We will not stop lo consider the fungous diseases outside of thw district which may be controlled with lime-sulphur, since this bulletin i writ ton exclusively for the fruit grow ers of the Rogue Hiver Valey. Incest Pests Controlled by Linte-Sulphur. The insect pests of the Rogue River Valley controlled by lime-sulphur are as follews: 1. San Jose Scale (Aspidiotus por niciosu'..) 2. Wooly Apple Aphis (Schnizon eura lauigera.) It. Green Applo Aphis (Aphis pomi.)' 1. Peach Twig-borer or Peach Moth (Anarsia lineatclla.) f). Red Spider (Bryobia prnteitMi) (5. Pear Leaf Blister Mite. (Eriop liyes pyri.) The Red Spider and tho Blistoi Mite are not true insects. They are near relatives of the insects and be long to the great class of Scorpions llarvesliuen, Sudors, Mites and oth ers known as- the Arachnida. Fungus Diseases Controlled by liliuc-j Sulphur.

Therefore. J00 divided by 10 (I plus 0) equal 20, which equals the number of gal lons of eojicentrnk'd lime-sulphur neecary to make a 200 gallon tank of diluted lime-sulphur having a ' ' ' ' ' - 1 Our Correspondents j -Ji i EAGLE POINT EAGLETS.

George Wright of Prospect Is hero should not only control Iho San .Tos scale, but the Retl Spider nnd tin Blister Mite; in the peaches, 'hesid" tho San-Jose scale, we should con trol the Poach Loaf Curl and the Peach Twig Borer or Peach Moth We havo seen that by the additiot of the iron sulphate to the lime sul phur, we may also control tho apph mildew. As a rule, tho San Jose scab can bo controlled by a much weak"' solution of lime sulphur than can thr wooly aphis or green apple aphis The same may be said as regards tin control of tho peach twig borer, b comparison with the San Jose scale Tho proper procedure will be, there fore, to use a spray of sufficient den sity o control, in so fur as possible the insect pests which nro tho hard en t to kill.

This is in accordance with the best practice throughout Iho country, nnd while it may bo considered that the solution as applied to the trees is very strong, it is by no means so for the aphides or even for very bad scale infestation.
