CITRUS CANKER.
Disease Described and Methods Of
Eradication Outlined.

Every citrus-fruit grower in Louis
ina should have a copy of Circular
No. IS, entitled Citrus Canker, which
has Just been issued by the extension
division of the Louisiana State Uni
versity.
This circular discusses the origin
and distribution Of the citrus canker,
the appearance Of the disease, the va
rieties affected, the cause OF the dis
ease, how it is spread, etc. 1t also
discusses the eradication OF the dis
ease and shows this can be done only
by burning the infected trees.
The growers Of citrus fruits should
do ali in their power to help the can
ker eradication work. They are the
ones who will profit by the work, and
on the other hand, it viii hi their loss
IL the canker is not eradieated
Some of the things the growers and
those interested in the orange IA
dustry should do may be briefly enum
Grated as follows:
/. Keep out Of the groves, stay
away from all citrus trees and do moi
allow animals to run in the orchards
Do not allow visitors in your or
chards. Individuals with canker cures
should be invited to stay away. TIT
only persons who should be permitted
to 90 near the trees are the Inspector
who have charge of the eradication
work.
