Abstract

Also in this issue:

Gibberellin sprays on celery: Field trials in southern California revealed differences in results due to spray concentrations, timing, and to season

Alfalfa hay conditioning tests: Relative drying rates, field losses, chemical composition of the hay, and feeding response of sheep studied in '58 season

Clover seed chalcid in alfalfa: No effective chemical control measures yet available for use against insect causing heavy losses to alfalfa seed growers

Brown spot of bartlett pears: Disorder of canning pears a direct result of impact bruising of firm fruit during the handling operations after harvest

Mechanical potato harvesting: Studies conducted in Kern County indicated less injury to potatoes when harvested by machine than by hand harvesting

Nitrification of fertilizers: Mean winter temperature of 45°F prevalent in state's farm areas not sufficiently low to prevent substantial oxidation

Area-wide drainage: Herringbone pattern and interception type systems solve drainage problems

Integrated control measures: Experiments in lemon grove near Carpinteria showed selective miticides to be compatible with biological control of red scale
