Union, March 13. (Special) Only within the last few years has the lime aulphur spray come before the eyes of the fruit grower in the right light. Before this time it was considered in ferior to many of our other spray so lutions, some of . which it has now al most entirely replaced, at least for some diseases. The method and formula for the preparation of the lime sulphur as It Is' now prepared and used Is of quite roeent origin.. In 1908 A. B, of the Oregon Agricultural. College made public this method of prepara tion and. it has now. practically , re I'iaced all former methods. .,. Every orchard should be given an annual application of this spray for It will do more to clean up a neglect ed orhard than any other one spray. Some of the troubles which may be controlled by this spray applied dur ing the dormant season are: San Jose scale, Oyslershell scale, all of the aphlds, pear leaf blister mite, the hibernating larvae of the prune twig miner and bud moth together with a'moBt all other Insects which may Lc found upon the trees during the winter- and if applied, to peach trees in the spring before the buds open it prevents peach leaf curl. It is both a fungicide and an Insecticide and when properly diluted may be applied either during the growing or dormant period of the plant.' As a summer Siiray when properly -diluted it pre vents apple scab and Downey mildew without the danger of -injury to the foliage' which so often accompanies the use of Bordeaux. ' While lime-sulphur has been used successfully on all of the above trou bles the one with which its use real izes the most benelit is in the control of the San Jose scale. This Insect can be " nlniost completely controlled by an annual application of lime-sulphur spray applied In the spring Just be fore the buds open. By applying the spray at this time almost all of the scales are destroyed but If some es cape another application in the fall after the leaves drop may be of con siderable value in controlling this post. These applications will also kill the eggs of tho Wooly, Green, Black and Brown aphis. j There are two general, ways of se ' curing this spray, by making the stock solution (for the stock solution meth ', oil Is best) at home or by buying It from some reliable firm and diluting ' it according to Its densit" nud the ' senson of the year when it is to be 'used. For a stock c:'itlon which registers 30 degree Bnuiae, for win ter strength it should be diluted 1-10, and for every two degrees decrease In density It should be composed, of one part less water; thus, a stock solution registering 28 degrees Baume should be diluted 1-9, etc. For summer use, a solution registering 30 degrees Baume should be diluted 1-28 and one part less water should be added for a decrease of every one degree In the density of the stock solution. : Unless one has a large orchard and can use several barrels of the stock solution It Is generally considered best to bay It In the commercial form. However, the home-made spray is equally as good if properly prepared ! and can often be made much cheaper, j This spray should be applied in the 1 form of a mist which Is best obtained: by the maintainance' of a high nres- j sure. The whole surface of the tree should be given a, thorough welting and a quiet day should be selected to ! do this. A complete description of i the methods of preparing and anply-j Ing-this spray Is given in Buletln 108 j cf the Experiment station at Corval- i Cordley Mis, which may be had for the asking. The dates given in this bulletin are . about a week too early for Eistern j Oregon, but as far as known now, arej light otherwise. ' i In conclusion , we can say that an I annual application should be given ; every orchard and the best time to apply It Is In the spring just before : the. buds open. Of course it cannot i cure or prevent every disease known j but there is untold wealth hidden in Its proper -application and those who I made use of It will reap the benefits: i .
