Time to Spray , Pear Spraying In order to protect pears from Saw Fly Larvae and Canker Worm, pears should be sprayed with arsenate of lead, regular strength, just as soon as petals fall. Anjous and Bartletts can be sprayed at the present time, while Bosc nnd Winter Nells wyi probably be ready latter part of the week. However, where vorletles are mixed, spraying can be delayed until next week, when all varieties can he cov ered. Arsenate of elad at this time, will also aid in controlling codlin moth, as It Is possible to fill calices to good advantage at this time. In sections where scab has been present in the past, it would he well to add liquid lime sulphur at the rate of one gallon to fifty gallons of spray or dry lime sulphur at rate of two to three pounds to fifty gallons. Apple Spraying All apples should be sprayed thor oughly with arsenate of lead just as soon ns the petals are off. ,-In large tracts, spraying should begin when about 50 to 75 per cent of the petals have fallen. The calyx cups of the apples close very quickly after the petals fall, and unless this spray is applied at the proper time. It Is al most impossible to control the worms later in the season. The same per centage of lime sulphur should be applied in sections where scab is present. This .wis b'-en a rainy sea son, and sci'b will likely show up more this year than in the past sea sons.
