Nevertheless, the hardy varieties of vegetables can be as soon as it is planted possible to get on the ground to plant them. Usually the rule is to get the seeds in the ground as soon as the ground dries enough to work. That may be difficult this year because the ground is saturated, and working it may be next to impossible. If you didn't get them planted during our few dry days, plant the hardy vegetables as soon as you can. They include asparagus, broccoli, cabbage, kohlrabi, onions, peas, radishes, spinach and turnips. The family vegetable garden is always the most productive land per acre there is. Some attention should be with a shotgun, they probably have this fungus disease. It is also called shot-hol- e blight or California blight. The disease attacks the leaves, buds, fruit and twigs of peaches and apricots. Peach leaves are infected with small round spots ranging in color from tan to purple.

The infection on the wood consists of round, reddish spots that are slightly sunken. The fruit buds are often killed, and fruiting wood is often badly damaged or girdled. Coryneum blight usually does not kill the trees, but it can greatly reduce the fruit crop by destroying the buds and twigs. Because of the wet weather now, it is wise to check fruit trees carefully for any sign of damage. also different.

The centers of these infected spots will drop out and produce a shot-hol- e effect in the leaves. In apricots, the damage is usually to the fruit. Small spots with tan centers and purple margins frequently are found on young developing fruits. These fruits will mature, but they will be scarred. The fruit is still good to eat, but it may not look very appealing for canning or eating because of the brown dots. Sagers says ihe damage now is mostly on peach twigs and buds.

The Utah Farm Bureau conducts an active recruiting program in all states, with the aid of state staff members. Delaware ranks first with percent, and Utah is in seventh place with 86.9 percent tion, according to the Farm Bureau's official newsletter. Utah is in seventh place weeks later, if there is additional rain. If the disease persists, it is wise to apply a fixed copper spray to the trees after the leaves drop in the fall. Peaches should be sprayed at the pre-pin- k stage with Captan, a copper spray, or Ziram. Most k trees are at the stage now, but they can't be sprayed until the weather dries so the spray can be applied. Utah has ranked consistently in the top 20 states as far as among the state Farm Bureaus in percentage of 1963 quota for membership. ' |
