Destroy Peach
Ycllows Promptly.
A peach grower in the eastern part
of Pennsylvania wrote to State Zoolo-
gist, H. A. Surface, Harrisburg, say-
peaches here and expect to make a
larger planting in the spring, but dis-
covered extensive yellows in our trees.
We were told that you had succeeded
in pulling trees through the yellows
and bringing them back to normal.
If this can be done we will £0 on
planting.”
To this letter Professor Surface re-
plied as follows:
‘While in my own orchard I haye
apparently cured trees of yellows, I
can not say that others can do so,
and do not therefore, find it best to
hold out any hope to persons in vicis
nities where this disease is to be
found. Plant pathologists at present
consider it incurable. I must accept
the statements of specialists in this
line, as it does not belong to science
of entomology or zoology, which is
my speciality. While I believe I have
cured it, and I am yer working on
this proposition, it is not far enough
developed for me to say to others
that they can do the same, and your
surest method is to accept the teach-
ings of the specialists in plant diseas-
es, who regard it as incurable, and
who say that as soon as a tree is in-
fested it should be torn out and burn-
ed. I certainly do not recommend
continued planting of peach and plum
in the vicinity of peach yellows, un-
less a person is prepared to undergo
the inevitable loss that will come’
By all persons in one region uniting
‘in the agreement to pull and burn the
‘diseased trees at once, it can be kept
in check.”
