Tomato Willis Prevented
With Resistant Strains

The willis Of tomatoes, of which
three forms are known, are caused by
moldlike fungi or by bacteria which
live in the soil and infect the plants
through their roots. whiting and yell
lowing leaves indicate the presence of
these diseases.
Fusarium wilt, the form most wide
ly distributed, causes the plants to
wilt and die slowly, while bacterial
wilt Is frequently more prompt in its
action. Efforts should be directed to
the prevention rather than to the
cure Of these diseases. The planting
of wilt resistant strains or varieties
Is advisable In order to control the
Fusarium wilt. A variety Of tomato
known as Norton Is highly resistant
to Fusarium and we'll adapted to sec
lions where the disease Is prevalent.
Fusarium wilt should not be con-
fused, with another tomato disease
prevalent in Rocky Mountain and
Pacific Coast regions and variously
known as blight, western blight and
western yellow blight. This disease
and Fusarium wilt frequently occur
in the same fields. The Norton tomato
Is resistant to the Fusarium wilt but
varieties markedly resistant to west
ern yellow blight have not yet been
developed

Low-Growing Fruits
Require Protection
Burning Oil in Heaters Has
Proven Satisfactory.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture)
Burning fuel oil In lard pail heat
ers has proved successful meth
Cd of obtaining rise in temperature
on the cranberry boys near the mouth
Of the Columbia river In Washington.
Local weather bureau officials as
sisted In making test Of the eficien-
cy of these heaters for the purpose.
The flooding Of the boys for frost pro-
lection as Is done In Wisconsin and
the Atlantic coast cranberry sections
Is not practicable In Washington.
The heaters are set on metal tripods
forced several inches into the ground
SO that the strong winds which some
times blow In this district cannot over
turn them. Forty ten-quart lard pail
heaters were used on half-acre plot.
They were equipped one night with
"soot-arrester" or spiders" and used
one night without them.
The frost on the two nights Of the
test caused about Is per cent damage
in a check plot 800 feet distant, not
equipped with heaters. There was no
damage in the test plot. Both plots
were similarly situated with regard
to topography and atmospheric con-
ditions. The fuel oil burned cost g
cents gallon in barrel lots, and the
cost of the heating was 90 cents an
acre per hour with the soot-arresters
in place. Without them the cost was
So per acre per hour.
1t Is believed by the weather bu-
reau men who made the test that SIM
liar good results can he secured in
protecting other low-growing crops,
such as strawberries, tomatoes and
potatoes.

Spraying or busting to
Control Harmful Worms

The tomato fruitworm, also known
as the bollworm (not boil weeviD Of
cotton and the corn earworm, causes
heavy losses Of early tomatoes in the
Southern states by eating into the
fruit and destroying its market value,
says the United States Department
of Agriculture.
A large amount Of damage can be
prevented by either spraying or dust
ing the tomato fruits with an arsen-
zeal. If spray is desirable, use two
pounds Of lead arsenate to fifty gal
Ions of water or bordeaux mixture.
The dust should be used at the rate
Of one pound Of lead arsenate to five
pounds of hydrated lime or one pound
of paris green to twenty pounds of
hydrated lime. Calcium arsenate can
be used at the rate Of one pound to
five pounds Of hydrated lime. The
first spraying or busting should be
applied when the earliest tomato
fruits are beginning to form or when
the first worm damage is noticed and
the arsenical applications should be
repeated at weekly intervals for about
seven weeks. All sprayed fruit should
be thoroughly wiped before it is mar
keted or consumed.

Windbreaks to Protect
the Crops and Orchard

That windbreaks are, as a whole,
an asset, particularly in regions with
little rainfall and where strong, dry
ing winds are frequent, is shown by
studies made by the United States De
partment of Agriculture. Windbreaks
protect grain crops and orchards from
mechanical injury by the wind, reduce
evaporation Of moisture from the soil,
protect farm buildings from the ex-
tremes of winter and summer weather,
and may also be a source of wood for
farm use or sale. The ideal wind
break would have the tallest trees
planted in the central rows; on either
side rows of shorter trees; and out
side of these, low bushes or cedars.
