CantalOupes Not
Fit BY Mildew

Cantaloupe n-n are rejoicing
over the fact that so far there has
been no cantaIoupe mildew discov-
cred on valley vines, either squash
or melon. There is mildew on some
other crops, such as sweetpcas and
wild legumes and there is sunflow-
en- mildew on sunfloWcrs and wild
asters.
But fortunately these, though
similar to the cantaloupe mildew,
are Il distinct species, and do not
attack squashes or melons. Ap-
parently the squash mildew
spores did not last through the
frosts of winter, according to Jesse
Norton, plant pathologist for the
county Horticultural commissioner.
