SCHEDULING CHARTS. The study upon which this bul- letin is based was undertaken largely in fulfilment of a promise made in Circular 50, where it was pointed out that while differences of leakage required the use of different bases of calculation it was impossible to specify what chart to use in any par- ticular case. We are now able to give this very necessary information, and we, therefore, reproduce the two charts which give approximately cor- rect dosage for the average tent and for those better than the average. The directions accompanying the charts are revised to include these determinations, as follows:. Fig. 2.—Method of scheduling with a chart. DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE SCHEDULING CHARTS. To use these charts one should first determine the dose for the average sized tree in the orchard to be scheduled by means of the fumigator's rule, after determining the leakage with a leakage Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble th
