Plant Pathology.

Prof F. l.. Stevens. OF the A. and
NJ. College, is the author of an inter-
esting contribution to THE Popular
Science Monthly" on The Science of
Plant Pathology"
In this article Prof. Stevens says:
The last twenty years Of the nine
teenth century mark the beginning of
a new epoch in plant protection For
this there are three reasons: first
the increased aggressiVeness of a GER
tain fungous disease, the grape mill
dew, in Europe second, the rapid
spread of the potato bugs somewhat
pedantically termed the Colorado
beetle, and, third, resulting from
these two, revolutions Nv changes in
materials and methods for treating
plant diseases, both fungous and in
sect, in the new world and in the old.
1t IS q matter not entirely without in
terest that the revolution in European
methods may be definitely traced TO
typical American aggressiVeness, in
asmuch as the activity arousing fungus
was of American importation"
