two others to what seemed healthy 

 growth, but it has gone right through 

 this variety, which is entirely spoilt, and 

 several others are almost as bad. The 

 soil here is a fairly stiff loam, on pure 

 yellow clay some eighteen inches down. 

 In this year's 'Sweet Pea Annual,' G. 

 Massee gives it as his opinion that the 

 disease is of a physiological nature, a 

 common feature of the disease being the 

 absence of nodules on the roots. This he 

 considers is due to the nitrogen-fixing 

 bacteria being rendered inert, or doing 

 work detrimental to the pea plant, owing 

 to the excess of nitrogenous manure used. 

 I have noticed the absence of nodules on 

 the roots of the diseased plants myself, 

 but this year I planted two varieties, St. 

 George and Henry Eckford, by them- 

 selves, where they are partially shaded by 

 some large oak trees; as far as I can 

 remember neither sweet peas nor the culi- 

 nary sorts have been grown on this piece 

 of ground for the past sixteen years, and 

 the ground is pooT and hungry owing to 

 the roots of the oak trees, and yet the 

 disease has appeared here, as well as in 

 the better-cultivated parts of the garden. 

 "1 hope the National Sweet Pea So- 

 ciety, which, I know, fiilly recognizes the 

 danger of the disease, will deal with the 

 matter immediately, while the disease is 

 stiU in its infancy, otherwise I feel sure 

 it will soon become a serious scourge, as 

 it spreads so rapidly."
