E cm Mild Winter Gave Sugar Beet Hopper, Tiny Carrier of Disease, Chance to Get in Destructive Work on Vines mt$l Vassal PA'GE TE1T on Gad fejf Tomato growers throughout the Til. ley have- uttered considerable crop damage this year from a type or con tagloua Time disease known ae west ern yellow blight or curly top, and more commonly called yellowe." This disease has Infected nearly every to mato field in the valley, with losses frequently running aa high as 35 per cent. Although present la a mild form nearly every season, curly top haa been more destructive this year due to the fact that the mildness of Isst winter allowed the Insect wblch transports the disease to live and multiply In this section. This Insect le known as the sugar-beet leaf hop per, a slender, pale-yellow bug about 3-10 of an Inch long, with wings folded along lta sides. Although some, times called the "white fly," It Is not 9 true fly, but Is related to the apple leaf hopper commonly found In the Jralley. Starts In Weeds. Ourly top Is transported by the tn Sect from Infected weeds to tomato plants during the process of feeding. After eating the juice of an Infected weed, the leaf hopper transmits the disease to tomato plants through a beak which penetrates the leaf tissue. As ths Insect Is sucking the Juice of he vine some is regurgitated, whereby the virus Is reproduced. The disease remains In the body of the leaf hop per until the Insect's death. Sugar-beet leaf hoppers ordinarily Jflo not live through the winter In this section, but are transported or fly here In the aummer from dryer and warmer regions. They are strong flyers, having been traced from do to S00 mllea and during a recent heavy windstorm the Insects are believed to have flown here In great numbers from eastern Oregon. The outstanding eymptoms of curly o-.i are a yellowing of the entire plant, purple coloring and roughneas of leaf veins, and a checking of growth. In fected plants do not wilt, but stand up to their full alee until they finally turn brown and die. They bear no fruit, unless Infection has started uter the fruit has set. Hard to Combat. 3. A. Mllbrath of Orenon Btata m, lego, who la studying the disease In this section, and L. a. Oentner, ento mologist at the southern Oregon ex periment ststlon, stste that there la no practical means of combatting the oisease otner than removing affected Tines. Spray has no effect on the leaf hopper, as the Insect Is not sub ject to poisoning. Experimental control work la being carried on at Corvallls by Dr. F. P. McWhorter, who also supervises the work carried on here. Mllbrath states the disease prevails In the southern pare of the valley. out tnat plotting cf lta distribution and Intensity Is not complete. He aid the disease has a wide range and affecte practically all truck crops and a, great number of weeda. Tip Blight Keen. Another disease which ordinarily Boss even more damage to tomato crops than curly top la beginning to show up In the valle. Mllbrath re ported. Thla la tlp-bllght, which ef fects plants at the time the fruit Is ettlnc with such symptoms as spottwl foliage, dying tips, and the entire plant turning brownish-black. Professor P. C. Rolmer of the ex periment station is In charge Of Bred selection in combatting this disease, but there has been no method found for lta control other than removing Infected vines. The experiment sta tion does not advise growers to use spray for combatting tip blight. NEBRASKA PICNIC CORVALLIS, AUG. 5 The 1Mb annual Nebraska picnic will be held at Corvallls on Sunrisv.
