I Editor Dcscrct lamicr: 1 am a subscriber to the Dcscrct Farmer and have been since it started. I trust the paper will live long to help fight the cause of horticulture. Will you publish the following in i your paper? What is the cause of I Crown Gall and Hairy Root on nursery nurs-ery stock as well as other trees? Can these diseases be detected by the looks of the wood under the bark? CrdwTi Gall is very easily detected de-tected by large bsmall bunches on roots, but I find differences of opinion opin-ion among nurserymen iYid inspect-ors, inspect-ors, as to hairy root. All information you can give this subject or any literature lit-erature that can be recommended will be very much appreciated. SUBSCRIBER. MM |
