NHWS Tiforkwk; sept., u, in i ' 'in i " Apple Men Warned of Anthracnose Orchard Trees Should Be Spray ed With Bordeaux Mix ture, Is Advice A Tory BoHoua .epidemic ot spplo tree anthracnoai developed in W ost ein Oregon last winter says Prof. II. P. Brass of tho Oregon Agricultural College, and an iacreaso of the disease may bo expected this fall and winter If growers do not spray. Whoro orchards aro young an application of Bordeaux mixture 4-4-50 with spread er added is recommended at this tjmo to prevent tlio infections which will commence with the early fall rains Where there is a crop ot frultjes peclally la the rod Tarlotles, the ap plication ot Bordeaux is undesirable on account ot tho mottling effect which results from the presence ot the spray deposit n tho fruit. This may to a large extent bo avoided by using Burgundy mixture. This ap plication will largely prevent tho rot due to the anthracnose fungus which develops daring wet falls both on the tree and in storage. As soon as the crop is picked, or. In early November another application with winter strength Bordeaux or lime-sulfur should be given to insure against win ter infections. Thoroughness In spray ing Is absolutely essential as the ob ject is to coat the entire surface of the tree with the poison and where this Is not done there will be left opportunities for ' infection. Direc tions for the preparation of the spray materials may be secured from the Oregon Agricultural College, Corval--.lis, Oregon, without charge. TO HAVE SPECiAi.
