Second Cover Spray Will Protect Fruit
Winnebago county fruit growers are urged by county extension director Norbert Dotow to protect 1951 fruit prospects with a second cover spray. For apples pears plums and cherries apply 24 lb dry lime sulfur and 1 lb 50 percent wettable DDT per 50 gal. For peaches apricots use wettable sulfur lead arsenate and hydrated lime. A. E. Cott warns against lime sulfur on peaches and apricots. Rainy weather increases scab risk but careful spraying should avert trouble.
