PROMISING NEW TREATMENT FOR
ERADICATION OF SAN JOSE SCALE
1 1.
San Jose Scale With Larvae and Adult Beetles Feeding on Them—A, Adult
Beetle; B, Larvae; C, Pupa; All Enlarged.
By A. U QUAINTANCE, Entomologist
In Oiarge Krult Insect Investigations.
United States Department of Agriculture.
The Sun Jose scale is Just now ex
ceedingly abundant and destructive in
many orchards in the Bentonville,
(Ark.) section, and growers state they
ure unable to adequately control the
pest witli the usual dormant tree treat
ments with lime-sulphur spray. While
tint bureau of entomology believes
that thorough spraying with dormant
tree strengtli of lime sulphur will con
trol the Hun Jose scale, yet to meet
the desire of orchardists for other than
lime-sulphur treatments, a number of
experiments with sprays were under
taken. The purpose of the present
article Is to call attention to results
secured in the treatment of the scale
by the use of a spray containing 2
per cent of lubricating or engine oil
emulsified with potash fish-oil soap.
Remarkably Effective Spray.
The careful experiments in Florida
by W. \V. Yothers with various sprays
for the control of citrus scale insects
ami the orange white fly, as published
In Farmers’ Bulletin 933, resulted in a
formula of engine-oil spray which has
been found remarkably effective in
view of the small amount of oil used,
namely, 1 per cent, emulsified with
potash fish-iril soap. Mr. Yothers found
that any one of several oils of the
lubricating type, when thoroughly
emulsified and used at the dilution in
dicated, was quite effective against
these scale Insects and the white fly,
and these sprays have now come Into
large commercial use in Florida.
The surprising efficiency of a spray
containing such a low per cent of oil
suggested the desirability of testing
sprays of this character against the
San Jose scale. The abundance and
destructiveness of the scale in the
Bentonville section of Arkansas and
the desire of growers for other than
lime sulphur sprays, has offered ex
cellent opportunity for testing various
dilutions of engine oil sprays against
this pest. The experiments were car
ried out by A. J. Ackerman, of the
office of deciduous fruit insect inves
tigations, and have included tests of
lubricating oils of a strength of from
one-lialf per cent to 4 per cent or 5
per cent, thoroughly emulsified with
potash fish-oil soap. The results
showed practically complete killing of
the scale by one thorough application
of t-he spray of a strength as low as
2 per cent of oil. Orchardists have
been so pleased with ttie results that
the 2 per cent oil spray will be ex
tensively used in their present neces
sity of bringing the pest under subjec
tion.
Injury by Oil Spray.
A point yet to be established in con
nection with the present experiments
is the possibly injury from oil spray
which may result to the trees, twigs,
or fruit buds, and several seasons' ex
perience will he necessary before a
final decision on this question can be
reached. In view of the experience in
Florida in spraying citrus trees In
PLANTING PEAS FOR
ALL-SEASON SUPPLY
Soil Should Be Prepared the
Same as for Other Crops.
Some Fertilizer Should Be Scattered
Where Row Is to Be Planted and
Then Raked In Scatter
Seed Along in Furrow.
In planting garden peas first pre
pare the soil the same as for other
crops, then scatter a little fertilizer
where the row is to be planted and
rake this Into the soil. Next stretch
a line and make a deep mark with the
corner of the hoe. The bottom of this
mark should be at least three Inches
across so that the seed can be spread
somewhat and not crowded too closely
together. Scatter the seed In this
furrow 15 to ‘JO seeds to tho foot,
then cover about throe inches deep
and slightly firm the soil over the
seed with the back of the hoe. About
I two weeks will generally elapse be
fore the sprout appears above the
ground.
At least three, and preferably four,
plantings should be made at Intervals
of two weeks in order to keep up a
continuous supply, advises the United
States Department of Agriculture. If
the first planting is of Alaska the sec
ond should be of Gradus or Thomas
Laxton, while the third should he of
Rxcelalor and the fourth of Telephone
or some similar variety. This will
guarantee a continuous supply.
There is nothing particularly dlffi
foliage with 1 per cent of oil. It Is felt
that dormant deciduous trees will prob
ably stand without Injury one annual
treatment containing 2 per cent of oil.
In order to render the treatment
available to orchardists who may wish
to test It on a small scale, the follow
ing directions for making the stock
emulsion are given: ■
Formula for Stock Emulsion.
fled Engine Oil, or oil of similar
grade gallon I
Water do.. %
Potash Fish-Oil Soap pound 1
The oil, water and soap are placed
In a kettle or other receptacle and
heated until the contents come to a
boll. A brown scum appears on the
surface of the mixture as It first be
gins to boll. After boiling for a few
minutes the brown scum begins to dis
appear and at this stage the kettle is
removed from the fire and the entire
mixture is pumped twice under pres
sure of about 60 pounds while still very
hot. A proper emulsion cannot be
made by stirring nor should the mix
ture be allowed to cool before It Is
pumped. Too much pumping will often
break up the emulsion. During pump
ing, ordinary pump packing is burnt
up rather quickly by the hot oil mix
ture. For making the stock emulsion
on a large scale an all-metal pump
would be necessary.
The stock emulsion contains 66 2-3
per cent of oil. To make a 2 per cent
emulsion for use in a 200-gallon spray
tank It Is necessary to use 6 gallons
of the stock emulsion.
Precaution should be taken to pre
vent the stock emulsion from freezing,
which occurs at a temperature of
about 15 degrees F. above zero.
Use Soft Water.
In case difficulty is experienced in
making a proper emulsion, due to
hardness of the water, the water used
should he softened by the addition of
1 pound of caustic soda or lye per 100
gallons of diluted spray. The caustic
soda should be dissolved In 2 or 3
gallons of water and then added to
the spray tank and thoroughly stirred,
after which the proper quantity of
stock emulsion can be added.
Any one of the following, or similar
oils, may be used, some one or more
of which can doubtless be obtained ir
most parts of the country;
Diamond Paraffin Oil.

cult about the cultivation of peas—
just keep them well hoed and prop
erly trained upon the.brush or wire
trellis to keep them off the ground.
After the peas are all gathered the
vines and trellis can be removed and
the ground planted to late potatoes,
lute cabbage, spinach, turnips, late
snap beans, or any crop that it is de
sired to grow during the last summer
or fall months.
PUCE FOR TOMATO PLANTS
Some Protection Prom Southwest
Winds Should Be Provided—
Fertilize the Soil.
Select a semi-protected location
from the southwest winds for your
tomato plants for home use. Build
ings, trees, a hill or corn afford good
protection. Do not set the plants too
close to the protecting object or they
will be Injured by shade. Fertilize
the soil. Set the plants deep In rows
five feet apart and plants two to three
feet in the rows.
ALFALFA WITH NURSE CROPS
Good Stand Made at Massachusetts
Station Planted With Red and
a Little White Clover.
Alfalfa sowed with peas and oats,
as early ns the ground can be worked,
along with red clover, and a little
white clover, made a good stand at

crop was out rather early for cows,
and the legumes grew so rankly dur
ing the moist summer as to make a
heavy cutting In September, with twr
crops the next season.
