PEACH LEAF CURL.
Catses and Remedies Discussed In
Cornell University Bulletin.

Cornell University Bulletin.
Bulletin 21G of the Cornell university
agricultural experiment station gives
the distribution, cause and control of
that common disease known rs the
peach curl.
No peach seems immune to the dis
ease, and most growers report that
the liberia is the most susceptible tc
it.
The symptoms are easily recognized
The leaves become not only abnormal
ly swollen, thickened and distorted,
but curl and become sickly yellow in
color, often tinted with red. After Il
few weeks these leaves fall from the
trees. in severe cases leaving them
nearly or quite denuded of foliage and
that at a time Of the year when the
tree can i'll afford to lose them. 1t is
true that a new crop of leaves is soon
produced. but this effort Of nature to
repair the loss is heavy drain on the
vitality of the tree. The disease often
affects the shoots, causing them to
swell and cease growth and even in
some cases kills them.

This disease is caused by Il fungus
that lives as parasite in the affected
parts. 1t enters the young leaves and
shoots very early in the development
and opening of the bud in the spring.
