In tb« Pry Belt It has usually been oonsidered a nenilBlble disease, but it has recently oaus^'d much loss at Vernon and Kelowna. The rainfall in thme districts in a wet season Is sufficient to provide the retpiisite conditions for a Imd attack of st-iib. The disease Is due to a fungus which may attack the leaves, flowers, fruit, and twigs. On the leaves it forms dark olive-green spots which may lie circular or Irregular In sha|H>. They are usually more irregular and less clearly defined on the lower surface. Tnder a lens each spot may readily lie seen to consist of the radiating branched threads ihyiihw) of tlie fungus. From these, summer »iiores (conMia) are priHlun^rl. which in (urn give rifc to new infections. The power of a loaf so attacked is much reduced, and if the attack is severe, premature .yellowing and fall of the leaf results. Serious loss may result from the disease attacking the flower-stalks, causing the flowers lo fall (jft instead of setting fruit. On the fruit.
