Abstract

Consistent, diagnostic symptoms of citrus quick decline in California have been identified as leaf vein clearing and stem pitting. The symptoms can be induced in a relatively short time, and on seedling plants.

Also in this issue:

Western livestock slaughter: California producers gain by increased Western demand caused by population growth and high spendable income

Veterinary science research: Current studies on disease and injury to domestic animals aid in the training of future veterinarians

Chick shipping boxes: Should keep brooding temperature as chicks can withstand chilling better than overheating

Apricot irrigation: Tests indicate one irrigation not enough for best results

Fruit tree leaf roller on citrus: Experimental field trials conducted in Pomona-Ontario area for control with the newer available insecticides

Chestnut production: California leading state but commercial possibilities doubtful

Toxaphene for mite control: Effectiveness established as control treatment for cyclamen mite, privet mite, and for mushroom mites

Cabbage seedpod weevil: New enemy of seed crops of Brussels sprouts and other members of mustard family can be controlled

Use of fire in land clearing: Controlled burns must be planned and organized to obtain effectiveness, safety and low cost

Summer weight gain: Brafords, Herefords compared for seasonal gains in Imperial Valley
