The bean anthracnose, in com
mon with one or two other spot
diseases of garden beans, is most
successfully controlled by careful
selection of healthy seed. Owing
to the greatly increased acreage
of beans in Wisconsin this year
it is highly important that the
growers become familiar with
conditions which affect the crop.
Spraying is of little value in con
trolling the disease under field
conditions.
