 Much injury is done to fruit and vegetable crops every year by the ra^ ices of 
 ins'^cts and funf.ous diseases, and ornamental plants also sutler pnatly. A luipic pun 
 of this injury could be prevented if everyone who grew these crops would u (; th« 
 methods of controlling them which arc Riven in this pamphlet. In some eas( s the 
 results are not so apparent as in the killing of potato beetles, and fruit growers art 
 sometimes discouraged and decide to stop spraying and take thdr chances. 'ihi« 
 often happens after there has been a year when there has been little or no Apple 
 Scab, when the man who does not spray has about as clean fruit as he who has done 
 so. But the experience of the most successful fruit growers is that it does not pay 
 to take chances, and that the best results follow, taking one year with another, when 
 spraying is done every year. The pests of the garden can nearly all be controlled by 
 poisons or sprays of some kind, but to be effective they must be given at the proper 
 time and the work must be done thoroughly. Several formulae are recommended 
 in this circular for the same purpose. This is done because in the country, or in bmall 
 to\N'ns, it is often much easier to get some materials than others.
