Mackie notes that in California the first crop sustains the greatest damage and that the succeeding crops are injured but little, Yellow leaf blotch caused by Pyrenopeziza medicaginis Pckl. The states from which the yellow leaf blotch was reported, together vath estimates of injury, are indicated on the map, Pig. 63- V.^hile i±ie disease v^as widespread, it apparently was not very injurious during the past season, except in Idaho. Hungerford states that it causes defoliation of plants, is common throughout the state, and that it is the most serious disease on alfalfa in Idaho. According to Hungerford, the first cutting is most severely injured- In Oregon, it is said to be most cornmon in the semi-arid regions of the Pig. b3- Occurrence of and percentage losses from Pseudopeziza Hiedicag- inis (above line) and Pyrenopeziza medicaginis (belov; line) in I92I. Rust caused by Uromyces medicaginis Pass. Rust was reported from several states although it apparently did little damage in any of them. In North Carolina it was unimportant and occurred mostly in the Piedmont and Mountain counties; in Mississippi it v/as unimportant ani occurred locally; in Louisiana the importance was considerable, according to Edgerton; in Texas there v/as a slight trace in the Rio Grande Valley.
