A number ot inquiries were re ceived lately by the Division of Zoology of the Pennsylvania De partment of Agriculture for a formula for a spraying mixture to be used on peach, plum and cherry trees to keep the fru from rotting. The answer of Prof. U. A. Surface, the State Zoologist, is as follows: "The ripe rot or brown rot is due to a fungous disease, which attacks the ripening truit of peach, plum and cherry trees and is to be prevented by sprav ing before or about the time the fruit is half grown with the self boiled lime sulfur wash. Into a barrel put eight pjunds of fresh lime or c.uick lime and eieht pounds of sulfur, and into this pour four or live gallons of hot water, and cover it with a cloth to keep in the heat. Stir occas ionally with a hoe or something to keep it from burning to the bottom and to keep it from set uing too much. Let it remain an hour. Then dilute it to fifty gallons, and spray it over the trees. Cold water should be used for diluting. Repeat this after a hard rain, or if it does not rain repeat in a week or two, and con tinue until just before the fruit commences to ripen, when there is no need to continue the sprav ing, because to spray it on ripen Ing fruit means to discolor the truit and thus render it unmar ketable, although it will not be poisonous, and will not be unfit for use, even though it should be stained by the spray liquid. Ibis self-boiled hrae sulfur wash is not recommended for scale insects, and it is not to b3 replnced by the concentrated lime sulfur solutions now on the market, uor by the home boiled wash which v.e recommend as the best and cheapest material for treating scale insects. . It is a different preparation! made by a different formula and method, and these materials should not b confused.
