MOSAIC DISEASE IN TOBACCO.
Pisnts Anlicaed Should be Removed
- From the Field.

Washington, Feb. "A serious dis
ease to tobacco plants. which often
greatly damages the crop has been
carefully studied by scientists of the
Department of Agriculture. The de-
partment has just issued an extensive
report describing the nature and
symptoms of the disease and such
methods of control as have been
found effective. Careful experiment
has shown that certain insects spread
this disease. and in greenhouses,
plants screened with fine cloth and
fumigated with a nicotin paper were
kept from IT, In the field, the only
method Of control ct present avail
able seems to be tho prompt removal
OF all plants infected with the dis
ease.
Laborers in the operations OF
worming. suckering. and topping to-
bacco plants may readily communi-
cate infection from diseased to healthy
plants, for IL healthy plants are
brought in contact with the sap of
diseased plants the malady is apt to
develop. This Is in addition TO the
spread OF the disease by insects, and
as the infection is so readily carried
It is obvious that afflicted plants are
always Infection centers so long as
they remain in the field.
The methods of fumigation tried
in the greenhouse experiments proved
so successful that the question Of
their application 20 the seed-bed is
now under consideration by the de-
partment The keeping OF the
mosaic" infection from the seed-bed
seems a most important means of
controlling its introduction and spread
in the field In so far AZ outbreaks OF
the disease may occur directly in the
field the matter Of successful control
probably will be found to he exceed
ingly difficult. This is matter still
being investigated by the departments s
scientists.
The development o. the mosaic dis
case. commonly spoken Of as Calico "
in tobacco plants produces very notice
able changes in their appearance. The
blossoms OF the plant are often dis
tOrted the leaves may be dwaried'
distorted and blistered and are always
more or less notified frequently the
entire plant is dwarfed. In very
young plants at the twO-leaVed OF
three-Ieaved stage. and in much larger
plants. i'm the rOsette stage, the first
visible symptom Of the disease usual
~ appears as a slight downward curl
ing and distortion Of the smallest, in
nermOst leaves
The new bulletin regarding this dis
ease can hF had free on application
To- tho department of agriculture al
