Orchardists Are Facing a New and Serious Situation: Orchardists are facing a new. and serious situation brought about by the ‘war, which has caused high prices in apraying materials, according to D. E. Lewis, assistant professor of horticul- ture in the Kansas State Agricultural -college. Oepper has been in such great de- mand by the warring nations that the price of copper sulphate has- soared, asserts this authority. This. demand has governed more or less the:prices of ether ingredients used with it in spraying solutions. Many inquiries bave come to the-de- partment of horticulture from.farmers in Kansas asking: where they could obtain certain: commereial: materials. and how mueh they would bave to pay. The department attempted to answer- these guestions by writing. to large manufacisrers. The reples-just received express a doult as to wheth- er or not the materials containing copper sulphate can be obtained at all within a short time and state that.the selling price of copper sulphate is from 25 to 30 cents a pound. “Orchardists have been accustomed to paying approximately a cent for the materials used in one gallon of dilute spraying solution,” says Professor Lewls. “This year they will pay at least 2 cents when bordeaux and. arse- nate of lead are combined, if copper sulphate is obtainable under any cir- cumstances. Lime and sulphur and arsenate of lead also will cost more than in previous years. “An orchardist can afford, if he has 800d trees, to use some bordeaux, even with copper sulphate at 25 cents a pound. Five to eight gallons. of spray per-appleation will cost 80 to 50 cents a tree for three applications. Add to this cost that of two applications of lime and sulphur. This brings the ex- pense to from 50 to 70 cents a tree. It is a poor tree that doesn’t yleld at least two bushels of fruit, and they are ‘mighty poor apples that won’t bring 60 cents a bushel. Thus, so far as the cost of spraying even at this exorbitant price of materials i3 concerned, the two bushels. of fruit represent a profit of 100 per cent on the investment. “The best advice to the fruit grower is to use all precautions to conserve his materials, do his spraying on time and do it thoroughly. If the applica- tion is made exactly when it should be a greater economy of materials and a much better control of insecta and dis- | ease resnit than if the spray-is applied ka week-late.”” A new motor truck for carrying coal carries the body: on.a turntable so that it can be unloaded at any angle.
