Confined to Bed Most of This Time. Suffered Intense Pain. ROOT-KNOT SHOWN ON A COTTON PLANT. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Root-knot of cotton and other crops Is caused by minute eelworms, or nema todes, which bore into the roots and live there. The irritation of their pres ence results in the formation of irregu lar swellings, or galls, varying in size from tiny enlargements on the small roots to knots an inch or more In dia meter on the large ones. The male worms are too small to be seen with the naked eye, but the females when full of eggs assume a spherical shape and may often be distinguished in freshly-broken roots as glistening pearly bodies half the size of a small pinhead. Each female may lay several hundred eggs, and thus the worms are propagated. - How Root-Knot Is Spread. lioot-knot may be carried from one field to another by any agency which will transfer some of the nematodes or their eggs, in exactly the same manner that wilt Is disseminated. Drainage water Is perhaps one of the most Im portant means of spreading root-knot. In addition, a common agency for the introduction of the nematode into new territory Is nursery stock. Seedling pecans, peaches, figs, mulberries, or pomegranates, and young asparagus, cabbage, eggplant, strawberry, tobacco and tomato plants purchased from in fested sections may carry the worms in their roots or. in the soil adhering to them. In the West, where the nema tode occurs quite commonly on the po tato, the worms are carried In the tubers. ; Sandy Soils Most Subject to Root Knot. Root-knot is essentially a disease of light soils. Although the disease may occur on heavier soils than wilt, yet It is not, as a rule, serious on soils con taining a large proportion of clay. In general, the lighter the soil the more severe the root-knot injury. The places of greatest damage are usually light sandy spots or ridges in infected fields. In gardens which have been highly fer tilized with stable manure root-knot la often very severe. Root-Knot Attacks Many Farm Crops. Unlike wilt, root-knot attacks a very large number of plants, many of 'which are Important farm crops. Those sub ject to root-knot Injury may be di vided into two groups, according to their degree of susceptibility. Some of the crops most severely uttaeked by root-knot are as follows: Bean, soy Bean, lima Beet Cantaloupe Carrot Celery Clover, bur Clover, crimson Cowpea (all varie ties except Iron. , Brabham and Mo-netta) Cucumber Efrgplant Kig Lettuce Okra Peach Pecan Pomegranate Potato Ralslfy Squash Tobacco Tomato . Watermelon Plants less severely Injured by-root-knot are the following: Alfalfa Asparagus Pean, snap Cabbage Clover, sweet Col'ard Cotton Mulberry Onion Pea, garden Potato, sweet Padlsh Fpinach Strawberry S'larar cane vptrh. - common Vetch, hairy. A few common weeds are subject to nematode Injury and should therefore be eradicated where tho attempt Is be ing made to reduce root-knot In fields. The most severely Injured are the bnl loon vine, the majpop or passion flow er, and the papaya or melon pawpaw. Weeds less severely affected by root knot are mayweed, purslane and sweet fennel. Some Farm Crops Resistant to Root Knot. v Fortunately, n few farm crops are largely or entirely Immune to root knot. By employing these In suitable rotations, nematodes may be starved' out on Infested field", so that suscept ible crops can be grown until the, worms Increase sufficiently to cause damage, when another rotation is nec essary. ' The following crops are largely or entirely Immune to root-knot : Barley Grasses (nearly all) Bean, velvet Kafir Beggarweed, Flor- Millets (nearly alii Ida Milo Chufas Oats, winter , Corn Peanut Cowpea, Brabham Rye Cowpea, Iron Sorghum Cowpea, Monetta Wheat Grass, crab Root-Knot Increased by Most Varieties of Cowpeas. Such varieties of cowpeas as the Whippoorwill, Clay, Rlack, Unknown,' Red Ripper, New Era, and others are so susceptible to root-knot that not only are they seriously in'ured, but the growing of them on nematode-in-fested fields greatly Increases the num ber of worms in the soil, and conse quently the damage to subsequent cot ton or other susceptible crops. It is a common complaint, of farmers in wilt sections that the , wilt is noticeably more severe after a crop of cowpeas of a variety which "is susceptible to root-knot. This Is due to the fact that the nematodes make points of en trance for the wilt fungus, which then kills or further Injures the plants. A few varieties of cowpeas are highly re sistant to nematodes, Including the Iron, Brabham, and Monetta. These should be the only cowpeas planted on land Infested with root-knot. How to Recognize Cotton Root-Knot The detection of cotton plants affect ed by root-knot, except by an exam ination of the roots, Is much more dif ficult than In the case of wilt. Badly diseased plants are distinctly stunted but not appreciably deformed, as In wilt, and both leaves and stem have a peculiar sickly yellowish green color. .Measures for the Control of Root-Knot. The rotation and diversification of crops n re of fundamental Importance to southern agriculture everywhere and become absolutely necessary where the. root-knot nematode Is pres ent. It has been repeatedly demonstrated by many farmers that root-knot can be controlled by the use of proper crop rotations. The principles on which such rotations are based are (1) the use of crops Immune to nematode attacks until the nematodes are sufficiently re duced so that susceptible crops may be profitably grown and (2) the eradica tion of ail weeds subject to root-knot. The use of crops that will return a profit and the building up of the fer tility of the soil are also important con siderations. Every farmer must work out for himself the particular rotations suited to his farm and his type of farming. If land -is very badly infested with nematodes as well as wilt, a two-year or three-year rotation with immune crops Is recommended before suscepti ble crops, Including cotton, are grown, and they should not be grown for more than one or two years thereafter be fore. the rotation with Immune crops should ! repeated. When the infes tation Is less severe, a one year or two year rotation will do much to put the land In condition to grow the crops de sired. In planning rotations for land in tested with root-knot, susceptible crops, such as tobacco, sweet potatoes, cotton, cantaloupes, okra. and toma toes should never follow one another The damage Increases each year so lone as susceptible crops are planted. If the first crop should escape serious injury, the nemntodes will Increase In the soil to such an extent that the sec ond crop will be almost sure to show a decided loss. Immune crops should always be alternated with susceptible ones and Ihe nematode Injury thereb reduced to a minimum. Sheffield, Ala. "About four years ago,'! saj's Mrs. J. T.

Backache of any kind Is often caused by kidney disorder, which means that the kidneys are not working properly. Poison ous matter and uric acid accumulate within the body in great abundance, overworking the sick kidneys; hence the congestion of blood causes backache in the same manner as a simitar congestion in the head causes headache. Tou be come nervous, despondent, sick, feverish, irritable, have spots appearing before the eyes, bags under the lids, and lack ambi tion to do things. The latest and most effective means of overcoming this trouble, is to eat spar ingly of meat, drink plenty of water be tween meals and take a single An-u-ric tablet before each meal for a while.
