Few Days Remain
For Dormant Spray
C. B. Cordy, county agent for
horticulture, said that fruit grow
ers still have a few days, depend

apply the dormant spray for
control of San Jose scale and
blister mite.
There should be time well into
the week, he said. However, rain
is hampering such spraying.
Cordy stated that the spray
should be applied full strength,
otherwise control will not be ob
tained. Growers can keep on
spraying until scales at the base
of buds loosen -and come off
when jarred.
