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 spraying materials, according to D. E. Lewis, assistant professor of horticul- ture in the Kansas State Agricultural college. Copper 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 other ingredients used with it in spraying solutions. Many inquiries have come to the de- partment of hortlculture from farmers in Kansas asking where they could obtain certain commercial materials and how much they would ‘have to pay. The department attempted to answer these questions by writing to large manufacturers. The replles just recelved express a doubt 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 80 ceuts a pound. “Orchardists have been accustomed to paying approximately a cent for the materials used in one gallon of dilute 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 ecir- cumstances. Lime and sulphur and arsenate of lead also will cost more than in previous years. “An orchardist can afford, if he has good trees, to use some bordeaux, even with copper sulphate at 25 cents a pound. Five to eight gallons of spray per application will cost 30 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 yield 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 is 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 insects and dis- ease result than if the spray is applied a week late.” BATTLES -Hardware-Movies for-the Bird House C.
