OIL IN NOVEMBER 1 The advent of lubrlcatln oil emulsion for the San Jose scale in orchards was hailed as m great boon by thousands of fruit grow ers. No longer wOuld it be necei- sarj to use the unpleasant and caustic lime-sulphur solution. The oil would do the work' to the great satisfaction of the laborers as well as the owner. As a result grow ers discontinued ‘ the late-spring application of lime-sulphur and replaced it with oil. The scale '* was eatisfacto as ImT curl, .was found in going back to the IJmc-aulphur in the late spring and in using the oil in No vember and December. .
