APPLE SCAB
BY c. H. CCONS, Research Assistant Pathology,
Michigan Agricultural College
Apple Scab, Advanced Stage.

Apple scab Is disease found on all
varieties OF apples, which is caused
by parasitic fungus. A parasitic
fungus is a plant which lives on an
other plant, taking its food from the
host. Fungi are not able to make
their own food as the ordinary green
plants can, but live entirely on food
prepared by others. Some fungi are
found only on dead material. These
are useful in nature in decomposition
processes. Other fungi, such as apple
scab. are parasitic, attacking living
plants and producing serious disturb
ances in the host. Fungi are spread
by means Of small fruiting bodies
called spores. These serve the same
purposes as seeds of other plants, but
spores are a great deal smaller and
much more simple than seeds.
The symptoms of apple scab are
shown fairly well In the accompanying
cut. This. however, shows the effect
only on the fruit and many fruit
growers believe that apple scab oc-
ours only on the fruit. 1t is true that
1t Is most conspicuous here and for
given year produces loss on that part
of the plant. Apple scab, however, is
also found upon the leaves, and here
great damage, although for the larger
part unnoticed-is done. If you will
examine carefully the leaves of the
trees that have not been sprayed, you
will find that the leaves are blotched
with sooty, velvety spots both on the
upper and lower surface. Sometimes
these blotches are extensive enough
to cause the curling of the leaves
since the scab fungus kills the tissue
at that point and the growth Of the
leaf causes the blade to curl around
the dead spots. Very frequently dur
ing the rainy season apple scab is so
severe on the leaves as to cause com
plete defoliation. 1t is under such
conditions as this that heavy loss oc-
ours and great drain on the vitality

Apple Scab, Early Stage on Fruit.
of the fruit-producing power takes
place. Since the great part of the
dry matter that goes to make up the
fruit Of the apple is manufactured
from carbon dioxide of the air and
water, by the leaves, anything which
nterferes with the proper working Of
the leaves endaneers the fruit crop Of
the following year. Therefore, an at
tack of scab not only produces unsafe
able fruit during the year of the at
tack, but it weakens the tree and cuts
down the crop the next year.
Apple scab lives over winter on the
old fruits and the leaves, very largely,
and 1t is probable that from this
source, the spring attacks of the
disease start. Whenever a spore
which has lived over winter is blown
upon the leaf, blossom or young
fruit, and is given the right condi-
tions for termination, it is able to
produce a scab spot Each scab spot
on the apple or on the leaf started
from the single spore and when one
from this single spore is able to pro-
duce millions Of spores, each one
capable of starting a new scab spot,
it is easy to see how the disease
spreads through the orchard and how
no fruits On unsprayed trees escape.
1t is also easy to see that If one con-
trolls or prevents the earlier infec-
hT hn oh
cessive attack of scab.
Losses caused by this fungus, taken
for the entire United States, are enor-
nous. So far as the fruit itself is con-
.cerned apple scab is the worst dis
ease Of the apple. Some years this
fungus is not important in any given
community, due to peculiarly favor
able weather conditions. Last year
was such a season and in all, the loss
by scab although the disease was
fairly common, was smaller than usual
There have been years in Michigan in
which the entire crop has been lost,
but these days were before the wide
spread use of sprays.
While apple scab is one Of the worst
diseases of apples, It is also one of
the easiest to control. For years, the
experience of experiment station
workers has demonstrated that with
proper material, applied correctly, 90
per cent of apple scab can be prevent

A BALANCE RATION FOR HENS

First, they must have plenty OF
shells. If you can t get shells the hens
must be supplied with a proper subs.i-
tute. Without this any system of feel
ing will be fruitless.
"The morning feed is of scratch
food ;and this ration is calculted to
keep the hens fairly hungry for their
food. At noon they are given process
ed osts, which have been sprouted bv
being. kept damp and exposed to the
sun. A handful is doled out to each
hen and the effect of this MONDAY
lunch is so stimulating to egg produc-
tion that l should hate to think what
would happen if l were to attempt
some substitute for this. The last meal
of the day is of heavy feed, which con
sists of mash made of ground corn,
oats, bran, shorts and granulated meat
or beef scraps, linseed meal, cracked
bone alfalfa meal, charcoal dust and
cut green feed. The combination is
iampened and sailed slightly; care
should be taken not to put in too much
salt. After distributing this 1 then
give the hens their second course,
which is of corn. Thirtyfve hens only
are kept in each yard and the most
persistent care should be taken to see
that their places are sanitary and
clean, and that they have an abund
ance of clean water to drink whenever
they wish it. This daily feeding pro-
gram is the result of years of patient
experimenting, and my results seem to
show that / have found the proper
feeding combination to force the egg
production. Others may have worked
out just as successful combination,
but the emphasis of the whole thing
should be placed upon the fact that to
neglect a single detail is to discount
success. - NJ. C.

HOT SOUP, THREE CENTS

practical knowledge as well by serving

GLENWooD WINS


The Glenwood high school basket ball
teams defeated the Leadville high
school in both games of the double
header played at the gymnasium of the
local school last Saturday night.
The Boys game was fast and clean
ly played throughout. There were but
a few fouls registered, and no wrang
ling over decisions. 4-t
Noonan and Maupin of Glenwood
played star game at forwards De
Merschman S phenomenal basket
throwing was the most interesting fea-
ture of the game. He shot the big
leather sphere with the accuracy of a
rifle, and no distance was too great for
him to hit the mark.
The Glenwood guards did exception
ally good work, and the Leadville boys
Were unable to get look in during
the entire game.
As result of this game, the Glen

The girls game had some class to
it, for the rival teams were pretty
evenly matched. The score at the
close of the first half was 3 to g. In
the second half the Glenwood girls
got into the game and walked away
from the Cloud City damsels. Mar

feature of the girls game. She threw
