SPUDS ESCAPE
HEAVY DAMAGE
Potato Crop At. Hunter
And Arthur Only Slight
" Affected

w. B. Richards, county agent. and
n. Q. Werner, horticulturist at the
agricultural college, have Just
nnlshed a two-day tour Of inspection
in the vicinity Of Hunter and Arthur,
investigating the condition Of the
potato crop, and the demonstrating
the necessity of eliminating potato
diseases.
They found slight damage caused
by Fusarian wilt, but conditions are
not alarming. This disease appears
about the time OF poisoning and Is
characterized by q rolling Of the
leaves and gradual whiting Of the
vines. The disease may attack in
dlvidual plants, or groups of plants,
giving the field a notified green and
yellow color. If the disease devel-
ops, 1t usually results in the pre-
mature death of the plant. Slight
traces OF Rizoctonia were also dis
covered.
The only way to successfully COM
bat these diseases, is to secure pure
seed and plant It in unaffected soil,
said Mr.. Richards today.
The investigation will be carried
further, and reports made on the
results. Farmers can get bulletins
on potato diseases and their treat
n1ent from either the county agent
or the United States department OF
agriculture, and Mr.. Richards said
that he would gladly give direct per-
sonal advice.
