The tlrM outward symptom of tin* cotton wilt or "Mark mot" Is the wilt il)g of the leaves. Sometimes only one branch will show signs of the presence of the disease, while other parts of the plant will appear healths ami vlg orous. The whole plant, how-over, us nally succumbs to the fungus and tiles within a few weeks. At other times the whole top wilts at oiiee and the plant soon dies. On an Infected farm the plants usually die out In spots. Further proof of the nature of the dis ease may he gathered hv cutting length wise the roots or stems of a diseased plant, and observing the blackish brown discoloration of the woody tls niic. Small tufts of fibrous roots will also be found on the diseased parts of the larger roots, which Is abnormal for healthy plants. Selection of Resistant Plants. There are to be found In ever\ In fected Held some plants v h Ich nn< iiion* or less resistant to the disease. It frequently happens thai of Iwo plants in tin* ) 1 1 1 1 . equally exposed to i II feet loll, Olio will die, W title till' other will ma 1 11 rt* a good crop of cotton. We should take advantage of this fact, a 1 1 < I when resistant plants lire found in diseased spots of Infected fields, the seed from stlch plants should he saved and planted In separate plats the fol lowing year. As some plants have greater power for t ransiultt lug this < ha racterlstle to their offspring than others, the seed of each resistant plant should he ]>lanted separately and their prepotent clia racterlstle noted If from this progeny the mt>st resistant plants are selected in a line manner, and tin1 method closely adhered to for a few years, the result will he a wilt resistant strain of cotton.
