Bacterial direct cause of diseases differ from those due to true fungi in that they work in the interior of the fungi work near or on the surface the of the plant. T h is makes bacterial diseases very, hard to the combat, which combined with fact that many of them are soil diseases makes the growing of some crops practically impossible on cer tain soils. the plant, while Some of the most important bac terial diseases discussed were melon wilt, pear blight, bacteriosis of the bean, and cabbage rot.

To remedy these conditions M r.

Earl would hardly expect him to make a speech without making mention of good roads. In conclusion be stated that during the present fiscal year 125 miles of good roads have been built. Next year 200 will be built and the amount will be increased each year until 500 miles per year will be built. W h en the state is reforested and we have good roads the lands will be readily sold.
