In a season such as this ‘which is favorable for blight and rot, spraying must be continued until the plants have finished their growth or been cut down by frost. Forty gallons per acre may be sufficient spray to cover plants when small, but later 80 to 100 gallons mnf be required. Keep the plants well covered with spray during the growing season for maximum â€" results, advises Mr. Provide Sugar For Preserving 1942, says J. T. Cassin, Ont. Dept of Agriculture, Toronto. Care! ness in spraying methods will reâ€" duce the crop by at least 50 per cent. and to avoid this loss growers would do well to apply sprays at the proper times, Mr. Cassin states. Heavy rains have delayed plantâ€" ing which will mean lower yields per acre. This can be offset to some defree by careful spraying and cultivation.
