ARE VICTIMS
OF ARBOREAL PANACEA
Added reports have been received
by County Agent W. A. Holt from
farmers at Clackamas to the effect
that they have been victimized by
firms selling remedies supposed to
cure all forms of tree maladies.
A ' recent investigation of one of
these products which was conducted
by the Oregon Agricultural College
demonstrated conclusively what a
great menace these quack cure-alls
are. The concoction which rejoiced
in the title of "Thompson Tree Pow
der" was carefully analyzed at the
laboratories pf the Oregon experiment
station. The composition of this
powder was found to be flowers of
sulphur 54.3 per cent, Sodium bicar
bonate (baking soda) 9.1 per cent and
brick dust 36.15 per cent. Testimonials
had been secured by the agents and
some orchardists have paid a fancy
price for it in spite of the warning
issued by the experiment station.
Tons of another fake tree powder
known as "Squassa" have been ped
dled to growers in southern Oregon
this winter. Samples of it submitted
for analysis prove to be made up of
93 per cent flowers of sulfur with 7
per cent impurities. Agents for it
claim magic results from scattering
it around the roots of the trees in
"ected, explaining that all tree mala
dies are a matter of nourishment
which this great discovery will cor
tect.
"Such fakes as these are not only
worthless and expensive but" cast re
flection on honest manufacturers who
are1 putting out excellent materia'
for the control of orchard pests,"
said a member of the experiment sta
tion staff. "It is the cure-all that
growers should regard with suspicion
as these are invariably put out for
one purpose only to get the farmer's
money before the agents are exposed
by the experiment stations. All re -
putable concerns submit their pro
ducts to the experiment stations be
fore marketing them, as they are in
terested in putting out the best pro
duce possible."
