 Danger in Groves After Spraying
 The hazards involved in working a grove after spraying have
 not been fully ascertained. Until more information is available
 the following suggestions are made:
 Entering Grove after Spraying.-There is little, if any,
 danger in walking in or through a grove that has just been
 sprayed with parathion. Some danger does exist in handling
 contaminated foliage or fruit and it is recommended that people
 stay out of a grove at least four days after spraying.
 Cultivation or Irrigation.-This type of operation may be
 carried out seven days after spraying.

 Fig. 8.-Have the tank almost full of water and the agitator going.
 Slowly sift mixture onto the surface of the water. Do not hold up sack
 and pour. Always wear respirator, natural rubber gloves, hat and long
 sleeves.
