ON PEAR BLIGHT
WASHINGTON, August 24. The ut-ttutiuu-ff
the experts of the bureau
of plant industry io the department of
agriculture has been called to the claims
being made and extensively advertised
mCaliforuia relative to an alleged cure
fur pear blight.
This cure consists in treating the
trees with a substance which enters
the sap and is said to prevent the de
velopment of blight. The claims made
for the treatment have been investigat
ed by the department experts and or
chards which have been under treat
ment fur two years by the method have
been examined with the result that
trees were found to be in very bad con
dition with holdover blights. The only
effect which the treatment seems to
have had on the trees is to retard their
growth, and as a result of this blight
makes less active developments.
