The Ravages of Peach canker.
In passing through the peach orch-
ards of Niagara Penirisola, or else-
where in Ontario where peaches are
grown, one constantly meets with
large, dark. gummy lesions on the
trunks or limbe of the trees. This
diseased condition of the branches
was formerly given the name of
"gurnrnosis" on account of the gum ,
exudations which are so regularly- as-
sociated with it, but a closer study
of its nature indicntes that this dis-
ease clearly belongs to the type of
affection known as canker, for which
reason the, latter name is now adopt-
ed, according to Mr. W. A. McCubbire,
M.A., Assistant in charge of -Fruit
Diseases of the Dominihn Plant Path-
ologieal Laboratory, St. Catharinee,
Ont., in bulletin No. 87, second ser-
ies, entitled "Peach Canker," that can
be had free on applicatiort to the
Publications 13ranch, Department of
Agriculture, Ottawa. Mr. McCubbia
proceeds to give a description of the
disease, some account of the eXten-
sive damage caused by it, its preval-
ence in the Niagara Peninsula, Lamb -
ton, Essex, and Kent, Ont., the nature
of the trouble, and steps that should
be taken to control and remedy the
evil. The bulletin, which Is both
timely and exhaustive, contains six
full pages of plates, ehowing exact -
1y the progress of the canker, with
explanatory notes of each stege.
