YAKIMA PKACH DISEASE
IS CALIFORNIA IUjIGHT
Seattle, S»pt. S—-The identity of
the peach blight which has be«»ii
working havoc in the orchards »f
the Yakima valley has been es
tablished by Professor John TV*. I
Hotson, the University of Washing
ton plant pathologist, ks tlie Califor
nia peach blight. It is a fungus
growth, which aj>pears on both
branches and fruit. The tanowu rem
edy for it is a spray. Dr. Hotson is
at work experimenting with other
possible remedies that may develop
better atcicn.
"Dr. Hotson has a series of tree
hospitals established in the v*41ey,"
said President 1-andos, who has just
returned from a visit to the affected
district. "Iu some places he has en
closed whole trees in little houses, I
with pndloeked doors. Within these
liouses are arrays of -materials with
which Dr. Hotson is experimenting.
He has the different branches sub
jected to different treatments, or iu
different stages labelled, so that
the individual trees have a sort of
hospital chart of their conditions.
"He is working with numerous
concoctions from which he hopes to
evolve certain remedies. He is shoot
ing into the trees solect«d for ex
perimentation all sorts of solutions,
from common salt to creosote.
"Besides these individual station*,
I)r. Hotson has two laboratories, b*
tftvaen which he travels in an s.u
ttomoWle furnished by the fruitgrow
ers^ One of the first question* I
was asfced when I alighted from th«
traim over there was: 'Can you 1®®
us have Hotson again next sum
mer?' I believe that the same ar
rangements made for him this sum
men can be made next year."
