The worst cotton disease in Ari- zona are black arm, angular left spot, boil rot, Texas root rot and sore shin. Of these the first two are caused by the same organism, Bac- terium malvacearum, which is also the prime offender in boil rot: Texas root rot is probably caused by a soil-dwelling fungus known as Ozo- nium omnivorum, and sore shin by another fungus, Rhizoctonia.
 Black arm, angular leaf spot and boil rot of cotton in their later states are well known to growers, but the earlier symptoms are often over looked. The first indication of the three diseases is a minute water soaked spot. This spot gradually enlarges and becomes reddish, then brown and finally black, although in the case of boil rot the spot may re- main rusty coiored for some time be- fore the blackening occurs. The
 spots on the stem which give the
 nanie of black arm to the disease
 may become several inches in length
 weaken the stem so that it breaks easily, forming open sores, or they may become healed over with corky material. The spots on the leaf may be zig-zag in outline along the veins. or they may be scattered and angu- lar, occupying areas between the Veinlets. When numerous they ! seriously weaken the leaf or entirely l kill it. On the bolls, the spots may deepen until the fiber is stained and routed, often with the aid of other l organisms. Sometimes -le carpel S of the boil dry faster on the out side than on the inside resulting in outward curvature, thus bringing on premature opening.
 Losses due to black arm. angular l leafspot and boil rot have been heavy | in the South where considerable ex- ] perimentation on control measures i has been carried on. In the Sait 1 River Valley in 1918 and- 1919 an
 an average loss of l5 per cent due
 to stem and boil injuries was es- I timated. With prices where they arc i at present, the loss of 15 per cent
 may mean failure and the question ot
 control becomes a very important
 one.

Along with high taxes the farmers of the United States pay annually large toll to plant diseases, accord ing to D. c. George, plant path ologist. The crop losses from plant diseases in the United States in 1920 are summarized in a bulletin just issued by the plant disease survey at Washington, D. C., which gives the loss to the cereal crops as not so great as in 1919, but the loss to such crops as potatoes, beans, cotton, peaches and apples was so much more than the total losses for the two years average about the same: Estimated' losses for eleven principal crops of the United States for 1920 are listed in the bulletin received at the state entomologist's office as follows

 Sweet potatoes, with an estimated production of 15O.00O bushels, was re- duced by storage rots 5000 bushels.
 Dry beans, with an estimated pro duction of T5,000 bushels. lost 1000 bushels to various diseases.
 Cotton. with an estimated produc tion of l1O,000 bales. suffered a re- duction of 2S,000 bales due to various diseases. chief of which were black arm and root rot The loss due to black arm is estimated 12 per cent higher than any other state in the union.

57.7s2. The death rate from tuber-
culosls is 14.2% higher In the South
than In the Nation as a whole. One
reason for the exceedingly high death
rate in the South Is the great preva-
lence of the plague among the negroes
who are especially susceptible to tuber-
culosis, the death rate among them
being three and one-half times that
among the whites. But inasmuch as
the negroes will doubtless continue to
be intimately associated with the
whites in domestic and other work in
the future, the whites will never be
safe from infection until the negroes,
as well as the whites, have been freed
from the plague.
