Although this particular disease is now confined, so far as known, to the southern Oregon district, the work being done with it illustrates the many angles followed in “hunting down” any new disease. At present J. A. Milbrath, gradu ate student, working with Dr. Frank P. McWhorter, plant pathologist at the central station, is engaged in a technical laboratory and greenhouse study of the actual nature of this virus disease, its means of transmis sion and other necessary facts. They are also studying the biological pha ses of the disease as it appears un der field conditions and in experi mental plots in southern Oregon. Meanwhile, F. C. Reimer, super intendent of the Southern Oregon branch experiment station at Ta lent, has carried through several generations a selection project which has produced a strain of the favorite commercial variety which has shown marked resistance to the disease when grown in the station plots. Further field trials with the re- strain are planned in coop- e it io with growers next year to ine whether the resistance is enough to remain consistent fter year and whether it is ette re under varying soil and oth- « u ironmental conditions. If it F . the advantage shown under esperi nental conditions this year it -win be a boone to an industry of growing importance. This disease was first Investiga ted in 1931 when reports were that “a bad case of wilt” was prevalent in tomato fields in southern Oregon. Studies by Dr. McWhorter proved successively that it was neither com mon wilt nor bacterial canker which It was later "authoritatively” pro nounced. Laboratory study finally revealed that two diseases were pre valent. one the spotted wilt of Aus tralia. England, and the Pacific coast, and the other, and major one. the hitherto undescribed tip blight. It is now definitely related to one of the virus disease groupe but its method of spread has not been de termined and no satisfactory artifi- dal innoculation has been accom plished except by grafting diseased tissue on healthy plants. A potent Insect carrier is still suspected and sought. FOR SALE OR TRADE—2 H. P. single phase General Electric mo tor. Will trade for 1 H. P. motor.
