Root Rot Combat Tempo Increased
Cotton root rot is one of the
most common plant diseases in
Texas. It generally is found
throughout the state except in
the Panhandle and High Plains,
and is very prevalent in heavy,
alkaline soils.
About 80 per cent of the wild
and cultivated plants in Texas
are susceptible to the disease in
varying degrees. It is combatted
by growing resistant or immune
plants, drying-out and acidify -

Sunday, May 18th

p.m. and lasting til] 9:00 p.m.
at the Community Building.
Sponsored by the Guadalupe
Society of the Catholic Church
ing the soil and by certain cul-
tural practices. The disease sel-
dom can be cured after it at-
tacks a plant.
Plants Wilt
Plants suddenly die after the
first symptoms of wilting. When
pulled from the soil, the bark of
the roots Is decayed and brown-
ish, and wooly strands of fung-
us frequently are on the sur-
face.
Under field conditions, the
disease appears on spots which
spread rapidly. Affected plants
die suddenly, often after having
made excellent growth. Large
trees may die more slowly.
Leaflet Printed
The Texas Agricultural Ex-
tension Service has recently re*
leased a leaflet, "Cotton Root
Rot," which gives much valu-
able information on the disease.
Some of the sections in the leaf-
let are control on field crops,
fruits and nuts, vegetables and
ornamental plants.
It also contains a section on
identification and has a chart
which names trees, ornamentals,
shrubs and flowers that are re-
sistant to the disease.
The leaflet may be obtained
from County Agent Calvin Hol-
comb or the Agricultural Infor-
mation Office, College Station,
Texas.
