Abstract
Because of the danger of injury to apple foliage and fruits from lime-sulfur, experiments were undertaken to determine the value of hydrated lime, calcium caseinate and glue in reducing the injurious properties of this spray as well as to ascertain the utility of various sulfur and copper dusts and sprays as possible substitutes for lime-sulfur for summer applications. This report considers only the effect of the different materials on the foliage and fruit of apples. All the spray and dust mixtures affected to some degree the surfaces of apple fruits. "Sun scald" or "spray burn" was the most conspicuous type of injury and was common in all of the plats receiving applications of sulfur either as lime-sulfur solution or flowers of sulfur, or sulfur flour applied as a dust. Russeting varied in intensity with the different treatments. Injuries to foliage were largely confined to plats sprayed with lime-sulfur solution. The addition of calcium caseinate, glue, and lime hydrate reduced to some extent injuries to both fruits and foliage, but they did not prevent important injury to foliage in some instances.
