Ore., March 27.— T o give Oregon orchardi ts in brie! form successful methods of combatting pests and diseases with the right materials at the right time and used in the right way, four spraying bulletins have ' just been issued by the Oregon Agricultural C o l l e g e Extension Service. Since it is already time to apply the first of the sprays recommended, growers are noti- j tied that they may secure any or all of the e bulletins immedietely. The series is as follows: Spraying apples and pears, No 193; Sp'aying prunes and plums, No. 194; Spraying peaches. No. 195; and Spraying cherries, No. 196. “ Spraying aims to kill the pest or parasite by hitting it with the proper solution when it is unpro tected. or to coat the susceptible parts of the tree or ftuit with a killing substance so that fungicide or pest can make its attack at no point not suitably protected with a poisonous material,” says the apple and pear bulletin. That is what each number of the series tells how to do for the particular kind of tree for which it was written The spray tables are new and different from any heretofore pub­ lished on spraying, s o f a r as DRY LUMBER r k U R PRIDE is Dry Lum- her.
