This spray i$ prepared by adding 1 part of concen trated lim e-sulphur to 8 parts o f water, and in addition to controlling scale it serves as an effective fu n g i cide as well. Spray specialists at the New York State Agricultural Experi ment Station at Geneva are advising the free use o f this spray to combat scale and also state that fruit grow ers can make their own lim e-sulphur during the w inter months for about one-half what the commercial pro duct costs. Home-made concentrated lim e-sul fur is prepared by m ixing about 40 pounds of lim e in a container with a little water to start the lime to slake. A fter lime is m oistened in this w a y the entire amount of water, 50 gal lons, is added. W hen the lim e is about two-thirds slaked, 80 pounds o f high-grade sulfur are abided and the m ixture cooked for 45 m inutes after the boiling point is reached. W a ter to take the place of that last in the cooking is added until the m ixture is brought back to the 50-gallon mark. The m ixture is stored in air-tight containers until needed. This concen trated solution is then diluted at the rate of one part to 8 parts o f water for use a‘s a delayed dormant spray.
