    About this ebook

    This book contains a comprehensive guide to insects and diseases common to peach trees, with information on spraying pesticides and fungicides. This easy-to-digest guide contains a wealth of timeless information that will be of utility to the modern farmer, and constitutes a worthy addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "Insect Enemies", "San Jose Scale", "Lime-Sulphur Wash", "Self-Boiled Lime-Sulphur", "Soluble Oils", "Peach Tree Border", "The Lecanium Scale", "The Plum Curculio", "Fruit Bark Beatle", "The Yellows", "Little Peach and Big Peach", "Leaf Curl", "Brown Rot", etcetera. Frank Albert Waugh (1869 - 1943), was an American landscape architect whose career focused upon recreational uses of national forests, the production of a highly natural style of landscape design, and the implementation of ecological principles. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
