Mr. Rieder advises the use of wettable sulphur spray instead of a liquid lime sulphur, since there is less danger of spray in- Jury with the wettable sulphur spray.- The sulphur dust should be of the ' best .-quality 'and ' extremely finely divided, i One which will pass through a! 300-mesh siere is necessary. The following applications should be made: 1. Summer sprays the appli cation of wettable sulphur or sul phur dusts should be made at monthly interrals during the sum mer wnere tne i disease has regu larly been serious. 2.
