-The danger of allowing too acid a coiidiiion to develop in soil used primarily for potato production was emphasized in s report presented before the Dominion-Provincial Agricultural Conference on the opening day yesterday. The report was presented by Mr. R. RAI-lurst of the Plant Pathology Laboratory. He told those present that a dis- ease of potatoes characterized by brittleness and breaking of stalks and petioles has been often ob- served in fields located in light soil in this Province.

The report went on to state that in midsummer the affected planm develop brown, necrotic streaks which later coalesce and extend into the vascular tissue. The most severe cases generally have been noted in the Chippewa and Cherokee varieties, iii-cugh in the commercial types the Sebago is most often affected. The disease is mostly associated with high soil

in treatment of potato diseases the data on control. the reports in- clients. regarding the attacks on

foliage, loss from tuber rot and yield, show that Bordeaux and Manzate were the leading

fungicides of the eight tested.

Mr. Hurst also pointed out that surveys have shown that some growers employ a split program for potato spraying. In such a pro- gram a carbsmate is used in the first part of the season and a cop- per fungicide for the later treat- ments, This treatment was examin- ed by ihe Federal authorities last year and the results they obtained. according to the report. indicate that s straight program is super- ior to a split one so far as the fungicides tested were concerned.

During last year there were 33 varieties screened at the local sta- tion for resistance to the two main tuber rotting organisms.

funniest costumes went lo Mrs. J. Perry and Mrs. Gus MacDonald.

The weekly card party was held last week at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Hooper on Wednesday night and was Well attended.
