CONTROL OF THE DISEASE IN ORCHARDS.

By cutting out the cankers and coating with antiseptic solutions and

water proofing afterwards, the blight can be fairly well controlled

in chestnut orchards and in certain valuable lawn or park trees. In

connection with this treatment a spray of the Bordeaux Mixture as above

noted should be used occasionally. Excellent results along this line of

experiment are shown in a large orchard at Paxinos, and in several of

the public parks of the State.
