“There doesn’t seem to be anybody

FALL SPRAYING AGAINST SCALE "
URGED BY ENTOMOLOGY BOARD
Atlanta, October.—(Special.)—Get
ready for fall spraying of Peach and
Apple trees for the control of the San
Jose scale and other pests which yield
to the same treatment, is the urgent
advice of the Georgia State Board of
Entomology.
This spraying should be done with
the well known lime-sulphur solution,
which may be purchased in concen
trated form or made at home, as de
sired. Directions for making, dilut
ing and applying the lime-sulphur so
lution will be gladly furnished upon
application to the State Entomolo
gist, Atlanta, Ga.
The important thing now is to pre-
.psrq for this spraying and to do it
within the next lew week*. ^ -
Fall the Bast Tima
While spraying for San Jose scale
may be safely done at any time after
all the leaves are off the tree, fall
spraying is generally the best because
weather conditions are more favorable,
and there is an absence of the high
winds of February and March.
Usually with trees which pot
badly Infested this single spraying
will be suflicient for the control of
the scale. But where trees -are bad
ly infested, they should have two
sprayings, one in the fall and another
in the very' early spring before tlve
buds begin to appear.
While the lime-sulphur solution
does not hurt the tree, it will seri
ously injure leaves or buds, and for-
this reason spraying should always
be done while trees are dormant.
Must Spray for Good Fruit
It makes no difference whether a
grower has only a few trees, or an
extensive orchard, with thousands of;
them; he must spray his trees to con
trol the Beale,'if he wishes to get
good fruit.
When scale Insects are allowed to
multiply, they slowly sap the lif® 1
of the tree, affecting iti producing
qualities, and they also get on th«
fruit, giving It a scurfy appearance,
vivid discoloration, and make it
worthless as a market product.

Atlanta, October. — (Special In
these times of imperative food con
servation, It is more essential than
ever to eliminate or control the va
rious destructive insects which infest
stored grain and seeds in the South,
and sometimes destroy entire crops.
■These insects include the Granary
weevil, Rice weevil, Saw-toothed Grain
beetle, Red or Square-necked Grain
beetle and the Angumois Grain Moth,
all of which seriously damage corn,
wheat, peas and other grains. It is
easy enough to recognize the weevils.
The moth is small and whitish color
ed, resembling the clothes moth.
The Standard Remedy
Carbon bisulphide, a liquid that
can be obtained at any drug store, is
the standard remedy for these pests.
When exposed it rapidly turns Into a
gas which is heavier than air.
To get the best results the corn,
grain or peas should bo placed in
a bln or crib, as nearly air-tight as
possible. The gas is very penetrating,
and will fumigate whether the grain
is in bulk or in sacks.
Estimate the cubical contents of
the space occupied by the grain by
multiplying tbe three dimensions to
gether, and where the bin is practi
cally air-tight, use 5 to 8 pounds of
carbon bisulphide for each 1,000 cubic
feet of space; and where not air-tight
use from 20 to 25 pounds to each 1,000
cubic feet.
First level off the corn or grain,
then make holes about a foot deep,
four feet apart each way. Begin at
the holes farthest from the door,
pouring an equal amount of the
liquid into each hole, and work to
ward the door. Fill In each hole with
corn or grain to confine the fumes.
The liquid will not hurt the graia
either for seed or food.
Precautions To Be Taken.
Carbon Bi-Sulphide gas, when mix
ed with air, is explosive in any kind
of flame, just about like gasoline; so
that precautions should be taken to
avoid any danger of fire. Inhaling
the’gas produces no harmful effect
unless kept up for a long time.
For any further information re
garding these or other insects or dis
eases, write State Entomologist, Stata
