One Orchard I sprayed ago waß to badly infested with Scaly Blight, that the owner was iutend: ing to root out a lot of the trees as being past redemption. 1 persuaded him to give them a Bprtying with " Montauk." He did bo and the results were far beyond his expectations. A large lot of beau tiful clean skinned apples, and not a scale to be seen 1 in faob, the apples were so nice that a doctor from Gorejsaw and admired so much that he got some away with him to show his friends.
