Abstract

"Leaf-spot may be controlled on a commercial scale and in a practical and inexpensive manner by a carefully planned and thoroughly executed system of crop rotations or by deep fall plowing. The best results are obtained by containing these two methods. A proper and uniform supply of soil moisture, spraying, and the proper disposition of beet tops and stable manure are important aids in the control of leaf-spot. Leaf-spot seriously injures the feeding value of beet tops." -- p. 18
