New arsenical spray offers safer tree pest control
French researchers Vermorel and Danlony describe ferrous arsenite as a substitute for arsenate of lead in orchard spraying. They outline preparation by mixing arsenate of soda with iron sulphate, testing for balance, then diluting to fifty gallons. The spray is adhesive, less burn prone, and cheaper due to sulfate of iron. The lime sulfur spray for San Jose scale is detailed, with a fifty gallon mix of lime and sulphur applied dormantly in February or March, strained and sprayed under high pressure to reach all parts of the trees. Additionally, two Minnesota Holstein breeders report a co operative sire exchange plan to prevent inbreeding, transferable among several breeders for longer periods.
