Controlled 1 By New Plan A new combined spray pro gram for the control of cherry leaf spot, syneta beetle, and cher ry fruit fly under Oregon condi tions has just been' Issued as a combination recommendation of the departments of agricultural chernistry, botany, and ; entomol ogy at OSC. Bulletins s g i v i n g complete spray programs for fruit will be issued soon fori 1942. Recent tests over the past three years have shown that ' lime-sulphur can" be made the basis for controlling all three diseases and pests if handled properly and combined with lead arsenate. Lime-sulphur alone will control leafspot, while the two in com bination are used for thfe fruit fly and syneta beetle. The lime-sulphur-lead arsenate combination is replacing the bait spray for fruit fly control in many instances. The one complication is that more residue is left on the fruit than when bait sprays are used. The ordinary washing used in commercial canneries removes the residue effectively, however. The spray program for control ling all three of these diseases and pests includes four sprays of vary ing strengths. The first' is annlied at the time petals fall, a second when the shucks fay, a third two weeks after the shucks fall, and a final one four weeks after the shucks drop off. Explanation of the strength of sprays to use is contained in station circular of information No. 253. ; Nursing Class Opens HAYESVILLE The Ifirst class in home nursing will be held THE LONE RANGER POLLY AND HER PALS MICKEY MOUSE THAT'S NO FUSES MUST i it n T THE HEK5KT OF THE rcsnvmES AT eoonrs party THE LIGHTS SUDDENLY ARE BLACKED OUT MICKEY THINKS FUSE HAS BLOWN.
