PRUNE TOMATOES ONCE,
ADVISES SPECIALIST

The MOSAIC disease of tomatoes is
one that is becoming serious in parts
Of Louisiana. This disease causes the
leaves 10 turn light green in color @nd
also retards their development In ex-
IRENE cases the leaves remain as mar
row strings. Mosaic cuts down the yield
of the plants TO a considerable extent.
If the plants become infected while
young. no more than fifty percent Of a
crop can be expected. The mosaic dis
ease,is very infectious and is readily
spread from plant to plant. A little
juice from diseased plant placed with
in the tissues of healthy plant will
produce infection iii a few days time.
Mosaic is spread in the field to a
large extent by pruning, accorfhg to
c. w. Edgerton plant pathologist, Ex-
pertinent Stations, louisiana State Uni
versity ''The juice from the diseased
plants is carried to healthy ones either
on the fingers or on the pruning knife.
he says. 1T is not uncommon to see
a heavy mosaic infection develop in a
few days after the plants are pruned.
On this account it is not desirable to
prune the plants more than is necessary
as pruning hastens the development Of
the fruit and certain amount Of it is
necessary but bad results are liable to
follow too much pruning. One good
pruning is usually sufficient. At that
time all of the shoots up to the first
flower cluster can be removed and that
is usually sufficient for Louisiana con-
ditions.
