But the sprays for diseases 1 or is about to and for insects may be combined and * the two given in one application. The standard Bordeau mixture spray is used for tomatoe diseases, and arsenarc of lead is used in controlling insects. When combined, these two sprays are known as Bordeaux-arsen- ] ate and this combination is applied as a combination spray against both in- . sect and desease pests. I The blights and wilts can only be | held in check and repelled by con- . stant use of the spray pump and removal of the plants that have been attacked by the disease. The first brffc#} N A application of the Bordeaux mixture \ should be made just before the plants j V V begin blooming, and again when the fruit has formed. Do not spray the plant when in full bloom, as the pollen will be washed away and irregular TTllQ nanpr formed fruit will result. y rpj,e tomatoe worm, the most seriI t i # ous insect pest of the tomatoe, may ird by the re- be entirely controlled by the regular and careful application of the arsenOnditlonS and ate of 'ead sPray? which is made by dissolving one pound of powder, or' " 11 two pounds of the paste in fifty gal-1 n every well" Ions of water to which solution is ad-j ded from three to five pounds of lump ] lime and the mixture diluted to make I fifty gallons and sprayed upon the plants. d, Bordeaux-arsenate, or the combintO estimate ed disease and insect spray, is made _ . by preparing the Bordeaux and udtimeS ltS lUll ding to each fifty gallons of this mixture one pound of powder arsenate of lead or two pounds of the paste I form. Where smaller quantities of this spray are wanted the following formula may be used: blue stone,l lb.; quick or lump lime, 1 lb.; arsenate of lead (powder) Vi lb.; water, 12 gallons. * A The arsenate of lead should be V made into a paste and added to the V bordeaux mixture after the latter has j iff MJI | been made. | # LIVE BOYS WORKING FOR LIVESTOCK ?
