PEACH TREE SPRAY ADVISED BY AGENT All peach trees should be sprayed with Bordeaux mixture 6-6-50 within the next ten days or two weeks. Is the advice of County Agent Wilcox to growers who desire to control "curly leaf." Peach leaf curl, commonly called "curly leaf" Is a fungus disease at- tacking young leaves and shoots In early spring, infections taking place as the buds crack open. Later In sea son the diseased tissue becomes thickened and takes on a whitish bloom or pubescence, finally dries up and either hangs on the tree through out the season or falls to the ground. Spraying must be completed before the buds crack open, otherwise the fungus enters the young leaves while they are still In the bud stage. Bor deaux mixture 6-6-50 Is the most ef fective material and will assure con trol If applied early enough. The green peach aphis causes a leaf Injury very similar to "curly leaf". The control for this Insect Is a nico tine sulfate spray applied Just prior to the bloom.
