Minnesota FLAX Disease.

disease in Southern Minnesota. AS the
results of experiments Mr.. Lugger finds
tina t exhaustion of the soil by previous
crops can not be the cause of the dis
ease, and that the specific organism o:
the disease could not be found The
disease, he says, can be carried by
water or the straw Of old flax from in
tested lands to soil not yet infected.
One thing is proven, that prevention is
possible, but that there is no cure.
Mr.. Lugger advises rotation of crops as
one means Of prevention.
