Spraying is essential to the control of insects and fungus diseases, and is a phase of the tree specialists' work that calls for a practical knowledge of the factors involved. There are, for example, two types of insect pests: sucking insects and chewing insects. In combatting each, radically different methods are employed. Tree pests and infections work ·downward. Hence no spraying ts adequate u n I e s s it reaches t h e topmost branches. 0 u r 27~ h .. p. motor sprayer assures t h e u t m o s t thoroughness in reaching every part of the tree. You are obligated in no way by requesting an examination of your trees and a professional opinion regarding them. If they need attention-and only then-will you be offered the opportunity of availing yourself of this high type of service, at a consistent price. Spraying is inadequate unless it reaches ever~ part of the tree. Our 2 Y1 h. p. high-pressure motor sprayer does the work. THOMAS J.
