TOMATO DISEASES IN THE VIRGIN ISLANDS

Some tomato diseases are carried on the seeds,
others by insects, or by people who handle the plants,
and still others live in the soil and enter the plants
through the roots. The organisms which are response
bic for most Of the diseases Of tomatoes are molds, bac-
terra. viruses or nematodes. These organisms set up
housekeeping, as it we're, in the living tissues OF the to-
mato plant. Here they notsenly feed directly on the plant
itself, but also give off poisonous substances which 90 as
much or more damage. "A few diseases, however, are not
caused by any organism, but by a deficiency or lmbal-
ance Of some essential nutrient or in the water supply.
For all practical purposes, tomato diseases must be
prevented, not cured. Most fungous diseases are usually
associated with wet weather, which tends TO keep the
foliage Of the plants moist for long periods. Such dis
eases are controlled by spraying with an effective fungl-
eide. usually at weekly intervals When a soil is known
to be infected with a, fungouS disease that attacks
through the roots, it should be avoided for tomatoes Il
possible. If clean new soil cannot be found, a seed-bed
can be d~isinfected by chemical funglcldes.
The virus diseases are relatively independent Of the
weather, but are spread from some nearby host or car
rier plant by some agent such as an insect, or by man.
Spotted Wilt Disease Of tomatoes is a good example. IT
occurs in many of the most common wild and cullVat-
ed plants, and insects transfer the disease from the m
fected plants to the healthy ones. Control requires ehml-
nation of both the host plants and the insects. Mosaic
Disease, also caused by a virus, is commonly spread by
workers, who handle raw tobacco cigarettes, cigars and
pipe tobaccol and then touch the tomato plants without
first, thoroughly washing or dislnfectlng their hands.
All tobacco products should be kept out OF the tomato
field or seed-bed, and hands or equipment that might
carry the disease should be washed frequently and
thoroughly.
Diseases caused by bacteria are no longer q very
serious problem. Though most tomato varieties nave I'M
bred resistance, it is safest to use high quality seeds from
readable sources.
Nematodes, also called eelworms, cause a Root
Knot in tomatoes. This disease is usually worse IN
sandy soils than in clays. Fields known TO De lnIesteo
should he avoided. Practical control has been obtained
elsewhere by treating the fields with a nematocide and
, 1960-07-30
this is BENG tried at the Experinent Station now.

Any farmer growing tomatoes will sooner or later
come up against one or several diseases. He should arm
himself with a knowledge of what to expect under what
conditions, and should obtain, and keep on hand for i'm
mediate use, an adequate supply of insecticides and fun
gicides. He should buy only treated seed Of high quality
rom readable sources. Crop rotation should be prac-
iced whenever possible.
Information on tomato diseases and illustrations Of
ONE Of the more common ones are available at the Of
ice of the Virgin Islands Agricultural Program. Pesti-
cides are available in Christiansted from the Alexan-
der Hamilton Supply and Hardware Store and in Fred
eriksted from the Robert L. Merwin Store. In st. Tho
mas they are available at the Insular Agricultural
Station. They may also be obtained from any Of the
larger seed houses on the mainland.

Section
School is almost over, but we
have very much work to do before
June 10th.
THE Farm" has been our unit
this term.
When we started our unit we
saw some films about farm ami
mails Miss Wainwright loaned US
several books and mounted pic
lures about the farm.
In our study we learned about
the types or kinds of farming in
this area and what is done with the
products. Many of the vegetable
crops go to the frozen food plants
in the Milford area.
Mrs. Kunkle helped US make
stand-up farm animals and pic
lures about life on the farm.
We built a model farm on the
sand table, had a display of toy
farm machinery, and saw a movie
that had been made by another
second grade. To complete our un-
it, we planted. tomato seeds and
watched them come up and grow.
We took them home on Friday. We
will set them in our gardens at
home.
Play Day was enjoyed by all.
Several parents came to see us
play the games.
We are checking to see if we
have covered all the second grade
work because we all want to be in
the third grade when September
gets here.

Pasture Not
Perfect Cow Feed

Although pasture grass seems to
be perfect feed for dairy cattle at
this time of year, County Agent
William H. Henderson of the Agri-
cultural Extension Service says it
is not as good as it seems.
OF every 100 pounds of lush grass
eaten by a dairy cow, only Is
to 20 per cent is dry matter. So a
COW must, take in 80 to IS pounds
of water to get Is to 20 pounds of
dry matter
Mature cows may have sufficient
capacity to eat enough grass to
meet most of their nutrient re-
quirements, but Mr.. Henderson
says heifers and calves don't have
the capacity. It's important to sup
plement lush grass with plenty of
dry hay and grain. Calves under
10 months of age should be fed
only limited amounts of pasture
grass along with plenty of good hay
and some grain.
Mr.. Henderson says heifers past
IL months of age can be fed all
the grass they will eat, provided
they also have all of the good hay
they want. Keep the hay rack fill
ed with fresh hay.
Heifers should also be fed
enough grain to maintain thrifty
condition and steady growth.
Heifers on good pasture, with
good quality hay available, seldom
need any grain. However, if the
pasture and hay are of poor quail
ity,- the animals may require as
much as six pounds of grain per
day to maintain normal growth.

Erery Little Girl
Wants q NeiU Dress
BY DOROTHY ROE
socIated Press WOmen,s EdItOr

Associated Press WOmen's Editor
THE SURE WAY to the heart Of
any girl, big or little, is to give her
a new dress.
Little girls thrill to the joy of
new finery from playpen age up.
And along about this time Of year
all girls are thinking of spring. So
what better time is there to start
your spring sewing, and whip up
some gay new dresses for your fav-
orite small glamor girl.
A fine idea Is the sleeveless dress
and cover-up-boler0, which can be
worn with the jacket now, without
1T as a sun dress in summer.
The sample dress made by local
sewing center experts uses a wash
able acetate and rayon fabric in
solid color sunny yellow for the
dress, and a coordinated print for
the bolero. Select the pattern size
by the child's chest measurements.
Self-fabric is used for piping at
waistline and for the four covered
buttons down the back of the not
ched bolero, giving the outfit GUS
tom look. 1t is recommended that
buttonholes be stitched twic e
using the buttonholer attachment
of your sewing machine.
A neckline Upper should be in
sered in the back of the dress bod
ice. A nice finishing touch for this
crisp, full-skirted little dress is to
attach a frilly petticoat. The ruff
ling may be done in no time by
using the ruffling attachment on
your machine.
Veter "a n seamstresses advise
making twofor three dresses in diff
erent colors from the same pat
tern, saving time by using the as
