conclusion.
Scab is another example Of field
disease which causes severe deprecia-
ton in the value of crop Of potatoes.
The presence of few scabby potatoes
may lower the grade of an otherwise
fancy lot. In some sections scab can
be controlled by seed treatment, but
IN many cases careful grading will pre-
vent scabby potatoes as well as those
affected with wire-worm. white-gr1b,
nematode, and fiea-beetfe injury from
reaching the market.
Other Troubles Cause Rejection.
Other field troubles, less apparent at
the time of digging than these, often
play role In the rejection of ship
ments. Among them are brown rot of
southern potatoes, and the group OF
rots associated with fusarium wilt.
During the winter the heaviest losses
are due to rots which start In wounds
| inflicted in digging, loading and haul
ing. These rots, known as fusarium
tuber rots, are caused by fungi which
live in the soil, and can attack tubers
In any sort of break in the skin
whether caused by bruising, fork in
jury, jamming freezing, or disease
such as late blight tuber rot. These
rots progress rapidly in storage ant
| transit and pause enormous losses
Freezing due to improper loading OF
heating Of cars is also very common
In warm weather, the greatest losses
are due to Shiny soft rot, which Il
caused by certain bacteria attacking
potato tissue which has been killed b.
bruising, water-Iogging Of the soil
scalding, freezing, or other causes.
