FINDS ANTHRACNOSE
BEINGJEGLECTED
Some of the orchardists are not In
HpccUng their trees closely enough,
according to John Castner, county
fruit Inspector, and as a result an
thracnose Is gaining a footing in
orchards whose owners do not sus
pect its existence.
' "In my opinion this constitutes the
greatest menace to the orchards at
the present time," said Mr. Castner,
"1 have Inspected a number recently
which were fairly peppered with an
thacnose and their ownerg did not
know It. In many cases the
trees have not been sprayed properly
in the fall. It has been left until too
late and the rains have destroyed the
power of the spray.
"It is important that -this pest be
kept under control because I have
found orchards that have been ren
dered practically worthless in a cou
pie of years by Its usuages. The
spraying should be done as soon as
the fruit is picked along about the
middle of September with full
strength Hordeaux."
