EFFECTIVE METHOD
FOR KILLING SCAB
(From I he Moeier Bulletin)
Since the mention in the Bulletin
lust week about scab, a small amount
bag developed. While the quantity it
mull, it has given riie to many in
quiries tegarding control of acab and
hat should be done to eliminate it.
Dr. C. A. Mac-rum, a member of the
State Board of Horticulture, has been
entirely successful in eliminating scab
from his orchard, and he was asked to
give in detail hia method of handlinK
it
"The object to be obtained in the
treatment of scab," said Dr. Macrum,
"is not its control, but its elimination
The prime idea that I had in mind in
formulating a method fur spraying fur
acab was its total elimination. 1 have
been firmly convinced fur some time
that the one really effective remedy
for scab Is Bordeaux mixture. I am
sustained in this conviction because
atiHolutely no scab has been found in
my orchard this year, while it is gen
erally found in most orchards in small
amounts. Last year was the first year
to my knowledge that we have had any
scab in Mosier, except possibly a few
isolated apples.
from the experience 1 have bad in
combating acab 1 would advise the fol
lowing procedure:
"1 consider the most impnrtsnt
spray to be the pre-pink spray. 1 hia
is put on after the little leavea have
appeared about the size of the little
finger nail or a little larger when you
can just detect the little green tops of
the apple blossoms peeping out of the
opening buds. Thia spray should be
made of the strength of 5 lbs. of cop
per sulphate, 6 lbs. of lime (preferably
hydrated) to 60 gallons of water.
I then used Bordeaux in proportion of
2i lbs. of copper sulphate, 3 lbs. hy
drated lime, and 60 gallons of water in
combination with arsenate of lead in
the calyx spray. Using Bordeaux in
the calyx spray is unorthodox, 1 know;
but when one ia seeking a method of
eradicating scab entirely, he should
not pay too much attention to prece
dent. "With each arsenate of lead spray
applied during the summer, I ubo Bor
deaux, in combination of the strength
of 3 lbs. of copper sulphate, 4 lbs. of
hydrated lime, and 60 gallons of water.
I use this each spray during the sum
mer, except the one I put on in Sep
tember. Its use in the September
spray is not necessary, and beaides, it
will leave some bluish coloring of cop
per around the calyx end, which is
objected to by some buyers.
"The method of preparing Bordeaux
ia simple and requires no plant except
two Sfl-gallon barrels and couple of
cnal oil cans with the tops cut out.
Freshly prepared Bordeaux ia a nec
essity. It should be made and applied
immediately. Put 60 lbs. of copper
sulphate in a aack, suspend It in the
barrel about two-thirds full of water,
I do thia in the evening, fixing two
barrels in this wsy, and by morning
the copper sulphate haa dissolved,
Then fill the barrel witb water. This
makes a solution of 1 lb. of copper sul
pbate to each gallon of water. After
filling the spray tank two thirds full of
water, add the right proportion of the
copper sulphate solution. rext mix
the hydrated lime in the coal oil can
with water to a milky atate. Pour
this wster into the spray tank. Re
peat until all the lime has been psssed
through the 'screen. Then start the
engine, agitating the solution, and add
the araenate of lead while the fluid is
being agitated, adding water during
this time until the tank is full.
"In applying the sprsy after the
applea have formed on the tree, the
rpray rods should le reversed and the
stream directed upwards as well as
downwards to thoroughly cover the
apple. While it is true that scab in
fectiona take place near the calyx end
as a rule, it also occurs on the body of
the apple; so that by reversing the rod
the whole apple is thereby covered.
in regard to burning, 1 have never
observed any burning in the pre-pink
stage. The idea if tu cover the wood
of the tree and the buds thoroughly,
ana also to get the tluiu into the open
ing buds in order to anticipate scab in
fections which commence to develop
about the time the blossoms drop. I
have noticed a little burning on applea
sprayed with Bordeaux in the calyx.
I have also observed that the burning
occurs on apples in the lower limbs.
This comes from the dropping of fluid
on the lower apples Water is con
stantly evaporating on these apples,
which allows the spray to be retained
stronger than in the tops of the trees.
"The amount of apples thus burnt is
neglibible in quantity, and are removed
by thinning. Burning may be pro
duced by any spray, if care ia not
taken to spray the first pint or two on
the ground or into the tank. Because
after the fluid has been left in the rods
and hose, the spray material precipi
tates in two minutes or less, and when
the machine is again started it is first
through the nozzle and several times
stronger than ia required. Sometimes
burning is caused in thia way.
I first discovered scab in my or
chard in the spring of 1U14 after the
calyx spray had been applied. I then
applied Bordeaux 3-4-60 in every spray
during the summer, excepting the
spray put on about the first of Septem
ber. This, together with the pre-pink
spray and the calyx spray put- on this
spring, completed the cycle for a year.
I started out with the idea, that if I
killed scab in my orchacrd with Bor-
daeux, that I muBt not omit Bordeaux
in any except the September spraying,
because) a possible second infection
doea not take place after August.
Tbia affords loophole for possible
failure and the result of doing the
work all over again and taking another
year'a time.
"1 have concluded that next year 1
will use Bordeaux in the calyx in the
strength of 1 or li lbs. and 2 Iba. of
hydrated lime to 60 gallons of water
and to lessen the chance of rusaeting
as few applea aa I did thia year with
2 lbs. I conaider the small amount of
rusaeting of applea which I obtained
thia year, wbicb are mostly removed
by thinning and are eligible for third
grades, mere bagatelle aa compared
to one-third or one-fourth of a crop
ruined by scab.
"The thoroughness of the application
of these sprays ia exceedingly import
ant. Every part of the tree, apples
and leaves must be wet with the spray
When we applied the pre-pink spray,
the plowing bad not been done and we
sprayed last year's dead leaves, which
were lying on the ground, in order to
prevent development of the scab in the
mycelium stage.
I am aware that Bordeaux haa been
used for years in combating acab,'
concluded Dr. Macrum, "but what I
emphasize is the method of applying it
thoroughly, and allowing no opportun
ity for its development during a grow
ing season."
