Venturia Pom/, from Wintered Leaves of Apple Control. In the agricultural experiment stations of the United States spraying experiments have been quite generally conducted looking toward the prevention of apple and pear scab. Some dif- ferences in treatment have been recommended for regions where climatic relations are diverse, but in general the method of treat- ment is much the same. At least one spraying should be made with strong Bordeaux mixture before blossoming. In California it has been recommended to spray twice before the fruit buds have opened; this in case of the pear. A second (or third) spraying may be given immediately after the petals fall, and at.
