Blight.

Blight is the most dreaded of all the
citrus diseases in Florida, says bulletin
of the Florida Experiment Station. When
it was first noticed it is not definitely
known but 1t has been a source of trou-
bic In the orange groves for number Of
years. Many of the groves in which it
once worked havoc have disappeared, hav-
ing been frozen out. Previous TO 1895. it
became so prevalent that il threa tened TO-
tally 20 destroy the citrus industry in GER
tain districts, and. at the urgent request
of the State Horticultural Society, agents
were sent to Florida by the agricultural
department. Prof. L. NJ. Underwood made
a trip through the state in order TO find
what were the chief questions 10 be inves-
tigated. In 1891 DR.. Erwin F. Smith stud
led the disease for some time, and later
Profs. Webster and Swngle were station
ed in the section where blight was prev
alent
Though many of the affected groves
were cut off in the greet freeze, stin ii is
to be found in the state blighted trees
having recently been found in three differ
ent localities Thus far in no one of them
had it caused any serious damage, but its
further effects are to be feared because
so far as known 1t is incurable.
Bighted trees appear as though suf-
fering from drought, or in a manner sim
liar to ones recently set out. The leaves
wilt and droop and finally drop off In
some cases the disease works very rapid
ly, in others il progress is decidedly slow
1t often manifests itself on single branch
and from that gradually spreads over the
whole tree. Trees affected in this way live
for a considera BILE length of time. On the
other hand, it may act very rapidly; for
instance, on one tree the disease com
menced in a definite area on one side OF
the top and quickly spread both ways
round the head, meeting on the opposite
side The tree in this case quickly sue
cumbed. Usually, however. new shoots
are put out. which grow well for a time
but later yield TO the disease.
Up to this time the cause of blight re-
mains unknown. 1t appears among the
old bearing trees, which are web cared
for in every wey, and which, up to the
time of attack, are apparently in perfect
health; therefore it cannot be assigned to
any external cause.
Remedies-The key to the successful
the cause and nature of the ailment. This
has not yet been found. Furthermore, my
observations have gone TO confirm those
of others, that the disease is likely to
spread from one tree to another. Trees
once affected rarely, IL ever, survive, and
the best treatment is to dig out and burn
the affected ones and place others in their
stead. This is the most economical plan
as WELL because affected trees never re-
pay the time and trouble taken with them

market garden on a plot of only five
acres on which to make a living The
land is naturally poor and was in sod
two years ago Fertilizer could not be
purchased, owing to lack of capital. hut
sixty loads of manure were obtained last
year, and this scant supply with irriga-
ton and elbow grease, made possible a
fair yield. A good local market i'm n
neighboring city of 10000 inhabitants took
most of the produce raised, although at
times the market was glutted and much
had to be thrown away. Mr. Rembauch

like thorough cultivation and an abund-
