Nearly every grower of cotton is fcmilinr with the pinkish mold that U to be found prowing over locks at picking time, which prevents them from opening out. This disease is krown as anthracnoae sod it is found or. the bolls ss early as Auguat. These enlarge and by picking tins the entire boll is entered by the pink ish growth. Since the disease occurs on the boil, it attacks the saod also, nnd in this manner it is carried over from year to year. Dy making a close laboratory examinetioa of dis eased seed, nnttirnrnaaa |pbta are found on thu small plant even be fore the send has sprouted. This ac count* for ths poor stand that may often result in the spring. Control of anthracnoee is brought nbout by the Solectron of seed from flel'la having a minimum amount of t;w» dirraae in order to prevent car rying It to ths field on the seed in the spring.
