cording to Prof. II. L. Russell of the
Wisconsin experiment station, it is a
bacterial disease and begins to make
Its appearance on the edges of the
leaves Often the lower outer leaves
are the first to succumb but quite fire.
quently nearly all the leaves are at
fected about the same time. 1t works
along the veins, finally reaching the
main stem, where when once estab-
llshed it soon spreads throughout the
whole plant. A great deal of loss is
frequently caused when the cabbagea
are in store for the winter, although
there were apparently no symptoms OF
rot at harvest time. All heads should
be closely inspected and if the slightest
black spot is found, the affected head
should be thrown out Such rejected
heads are suitable for immediate con
sumption. In 1896 the loss from rot
IN kenosha and Racine counties is es-
Smated at so to 60 thousand dollars.
