GERANIUMS; FUMES OR FUNGUS. 



We have noticed a leaf disease in 

 our geraniums and should be glad to 

 know what it is and how to remedy it. 

 We enclose samples of the affected 

 leaves, which turn yellow and keep the 

 plants almost bare of foliage. We used 

 to be troubled with it in southwestern 

 Missouri a dozen years ago. It came on 

 a batch of geraniums which were shipped 

 to us. We believe it to be some sort 

 of fungous disease; it works the year 

 around. Our plants are in good, light 

 soil, in the sunny end of a light, well- 

 vcntilatod greenhouse, and are grown 

 at a low temperature. There are no 

 cinders under them, nor arc they en- 

 dangered by gas. T. N. C. — Tex. 



In my experience in growing many 

 thousands of geraniums annually, I 

 have never seen any trouble just like 

 the one referred to in the inquiry and 

 s)iov,n on the specimens submitted, but 

 I have seen a condition closely resem- 

 bling it caused by fumes. Possibly 

 your plants are so affected, although 

 you have not as yet detected the es- 

 caping gases. I have also known gera- 

 niums to suffer in the same way when 

 standing on coal ashes from the boiler 

 pit; in such a case, the obvious remedy 

 was the substitution of sand for the 

 ashes. In any case, do not allow the 

 plants to become extremely wet at the 

 roots. You are entirely right in giving 

 them plenty of light and air. If, as you 

 s.ay, it is a fungous disease, pick off all 

 the affected leaves and spray the plants 

 with Bordeaux mixture or one of the 

 newer preparations for eradicating 

 fungi. M. P.
