At McConchie Grange on Saturday
March 9Th, Prof. G. +, Temple made
the statement that the loss from plant
diseases Is greater in this country than
the loss from animal diseases. Yet
We think more OF the loss from the ami
mails because the loss comes In a hump.
He explained what he meant by show
ing some of the losses that occur to the
farmer in the poor quality OF his fruit
because Of worms and diseases Of diff
ferent kinds. Then he showed the
great loss that the farmers OF Southern
Maryland are sustaining every year
thru the corn root rot and blight in
wheat, which have been proven to be
the same disease. The corn root rot
can be eliminated to q very great extent
by planting only the ears OF corn
which are free from the disease. That
means we must test every ear of corn
we plant. We must not plant an car
that does not show every part of the
ear perfect in termination. With the
corn root rot eliminated, the wheat
blight In wheat will be largely elimi-
mated Then the loss in oats and
wheat from smut can be largely done
away with by treating the seed with
formaldyhide. The loss fromthe scab
in potatoes is very great and can be
controlled BY the formalyn treatment.
The spraying of the fruit trees at the
proper time will control the f1ngous
diseases and also many of the insect
pests. It has also been found that
frenehing in tobacco is a contagious
disease and when plant IS discovered
TO be frenching, that plant ought to be
handled carefully and removed from
the field. You can carry the mosaic
diseases on your clothes and spread
them from one plant to another.
Rot root in cabbage is difficult
disease 10 eradicate from our gardens.
The best thing to do is to have two
garden spots and keep one in Alfalfa
while the other is cultivated and only
cultivate for a period of or years
II the advice is taken we can save our
county thousands OF dollars.
Shall we not test our corn Shall
we not spray our fruit treess 1t is
time now for both. a card TO me will
give you the best methods to pursue.
