Home Orchards Spray Schedule Issued by OSC A new spray schedule to help home gardeners protect their fruit and nut trees against In sects and diseases has been pub lished by the Oregon State Col lege extension service. The folder presents a simpli fied timetable that keeps the number of Sprayings to a mini mum, and recommends spray materials that can be purchased almost anywhere. It doesn't meet the exacting requirements of commercial orchardists, however. Spraying schedules are listed for apple, pear, peach, cherry, prune, apricot, walnut, and fil Ibert trees. Time of spraying is keyed to blossom and leaf de Jvelopment of the tree at different seasons. A table is included giving in formation on the various insecti cides and fungicides recommen ded. Directions are given for I mixing either one-gallon or 50 gallon quantities of spray. The new circular, titled "spray Schedule for Home Orchards," was written by Iain C Mac Swan, OSC extension plant pathologist, and R W Every, OSC extension entomologist. Oregon residents can obtain a free copy at their county extension office, or from the OSC bulletin clerk, Corvallis. The outstanding loan balances will be automatically covered by a life insurance plan for added protection of the borrower's fam ily. Stephenson said it is the bank's thought that the new ser vice will be used for such pur poses as vacations, travel, med ical expenses, taxes, tuition, in- MlpVTpSlof thi. dlSricl McMillan and sister, Mrs McC.lL Mrs Ken Palmer, Mrs L Saturday guesis oi mis w E Ruhl and Mrs C C Jones at- Millan and Mrs McCall were tended the mother's teas given Dona McMillan Ritchie, Ray R by the Rainbow Girls in Heppner Ritchie and Nora Ritchie and Jim on Monday night.
