, the county agent said.
All the trouble from the Dutch
Elm disease started in this country
back in 1880, when it was introduced
in New Jersey and the Eastern Great
Lakes region from a shipment of
lumber from Holland. Carried by
the European and American bark
beetles, the spores of the blight have
spread from the Atlantic ocean to
Colorado, and as far south as Ten
nessee. .i.-
Closely allied with the Dutch elm
blight has been the spread of a
similar disease, phloem necrosis. A
virus disease, it has the same
symptoms as the better known
blight: curling and yellow leaves and
discoloration of the under-bark, fol-
lowed by death of the tree.
Because the two diseases are
spread in a like manner, they can
be treated similarly, and so are COM
monty Jumped together by those in
terested in tree health in a single
Dutch elm blight crusade. "
Hadley recommended this week
that anyone who suspects a tree of
being infected should cut off a
sample and send it for analysis to
the agriculture experimental station
at Wooster.
He also stressed that the only
hope for control is to destroy in
fected elms and spray healthy ones.

Property Owners Warned
To Be On Guard For
Signs Of Disease

Although Dutch Elm Blight so far
has missed Buttons stately shade
trees, the disease is spreading rapid
ly in Allen county and property
owners should be on guard constant
ly to prevent further depredations,
according to County Agricultural
Agent Herbert H. Hadley.
Dutch Elm Blight first cropped up
in the Allen county area three years
ago, and is becoming quite common,
particularly in Lima, it was pointed
out.
Once a tree is infected, the only
remedy is to destroy it, for there is
no known cure. However, healthy
trees can be protected by DOT spray,
