Copper Sulphate
Shows Promise in
Fruit Crack Work
A new lead on the old problem
of how to prevent cherries and
prunes from cracking when rain
occurs during the ripening period
is reported by Dr. W. L. Powers,
head of the soils department at
Oregon State college. His latest
findings have just been submitted
in a paper to the magazine "Sei-
ence," with W B. Bollen, asso-
ciate bacteriologist, as joint au-

Cherries immersed in a dilute
solution of copper su'phate, how-
I ever, came through the test with
no cracking after 18 hours, which
' first led Dr. Powers to believe
some yeast or mold organism
might be involved. Careful tests
by Dr. Bollen failed to confirm
this, however.
Although the season was nearlv
over, some tests were made on a
cherry tree by applying a .1 pci
