Sunnybanlrrmargarine at SAFEWAY First Cover Spray For Pears Delayed By Cold Weather The first cover spray for pears has been retarded until about the first of June because of later than usual cool weather this year, ac cording to Don Berry, county agent for horticulture. There has been little codling moth activity, and no egg laying has occurred, according to L. G. Gentner of the Southern Oregon Experiment station. Pear psylla are developing very slowly and are not expected to cause any damage in most orchards before the first cover spray, Gentner said. Berry also recommended spray for English walnut trees which are troubled with an excessive number of dead twigs, or wal nuts shriveling and turning black inside. Three sprays may be re quired. Spray Time advised The pre-bloom spray should be put on as soon as about half of the buds have broken open and the folded leaves are begin ning to separate. The second ap plication should be made when leaves are well separated and flowers coming into full bloom, and the third pray should follow about 10 days later. If the weather is warm and dry, the third spray may be omitted. Berry recommended Copper A compound used at the rate of two pounds to 100 gallons of water, or Bordeaux 4-2-100. He advised use of a good spreader and thorough spraying of the trees.
