 Ever since you learned of the rich tob-^cco of 

 which W-B CUT Chewing is made, there has 

 been a big and increasing demand for it. The idea of 

 shredding the leaf, so that you can get at the tobacco 

 satisfaction without so much grinding and spitting, has 

 made a winning with men also. The little chew that

SOUTHERN PACIFIC LINES 



ash-gray appearance. Badly-infe.sted 

 bark when cut into u.sually shows a 

 reddish color. These scale pests are 

 very successfully controlled by the use 

 of strong sprays applied during the 

 dormant period of the trees, as indi- 

 cated in the schedule of applications. 



DISEASES OF THE APPLE 



Apple Scab: This is the most de- 

 structive disease of the apple and is 

 almost universally distributed. It ap- 

 pears very early in the season and 

 causes not only grayish or brownish 

 unsightly spots on the fruit, but often 

 causes cracking and dwarfing of the 

 fruit. It also appears as black blotches 

 on the leaves. It is a cool-climate dis- 

 ease and hence is most destructive in 

 the more northern apple-growing re- 

 gions. It is well controlled by spray- 

 ing according to the methods outlined 

 hereafter. 



Bitter-Rot: Bitter-rot is typically a 

 Southern apple disease, and in the 

 regions in which it occurs it is one of 

 the most dreaded. It does not appear 

 until the weather has become hot, this 

 dale being usually about the first of 

 .July, and is one of the hardest of all 

 diseases to control. The rotted spots, 

 with the pink or dark-colored con- 

 centric circles of fruiting postules, are 

 typical of this disease. The removal of 

 limb-cankers and mummied fruits in 

 which it lives over from season to 

 season is an important aid to control 

 by spraying. In the East Yellow New- 

 town (Albemarle Pippin) is especially 

 susceptible to this disease. In the 

 Middle West nearly all varieties are 

 susceptible to some extent at least. 



Apple Blotch: This disease begins in 

 the early part of the growing season, 

 but is not conspicuous until nearly mid- 

 summer. It is distributed over the 

 southern half of the apple belt and is 

 to the .South what the apple-scab is to 

 the North. It is most destructive in 

 Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky 

 and Southern Illinois. It occurs on 

 fruit, leaves and twigs, but is most 

 destructive to the fruit. It appears on 

 the fruit as an irregular brown spot 

 with a hard roughened surface and a 

 somewhat uneven margin. It grows 

 very slow and finally becomes some- 

 what sunken. In severe cases, especi- 

 ally on certain varieties, the fruit nia>- 

 finally become badly cracked. Ben 

 Davis, Missouri Pippin and Northwest- 

 ern (ireening are especially susceptible 

 to this disease. 



Sooty Fungus and Flyspeck: Toward 

 the end of the summer apples may 

 become covered with large sooty 

 blotches or areas of minute black spots. 

 These diseases do not penetrate the 

 ai)ple skin at all, but injure the market 

 value of the fruit by detracting very 

 grealiy from its appearance. These 

 diseases are (|uite common in the 

 moister parts of the United States and 

 in iuisi)ia,\ed orchards often cause con- 

 siderable financial loss. They arc, in 

 ordinary seasons, controlled by the 

 sjjiayings applied for the control of 

 oilier apple diseases. 



Black-Rot or Ring-Rot and Leaf-Spot: 

 These diseases are caused 1)\ tile same 

 fungus, and are conli'olled by cutting
