Story of My Vegetable Garden (私の畑の物語) (30) Sudden Disease

English translation:

The tomato plant was very fine until September 25th.
After the next rainy day, its leaves suddenly got weakened
because of disease, and most fruits got eaten by a lot of slugs.
On the 27th, I had to kill 100 slugs, and learned about the difficulty of farming.
(The plant name of Tomato is almost common worldwide, so here
it is shown as [vegetable name] + a shortly compounded form of
the sound of {t,o,m,a}. In the future, probably a new overlay ideogram
for tomato would be made.)

Japanese translation:

９月２５日までとても元気だったトマト・・翌日の雨の後急激に葉が腐り、
ほとんどの実が大量のナメクジによって喰われました。２７日に私は
１００匹のナメクジを殺さねばならず、畑つくりの困難を思い知りました。
(トマトの名は、ほとんど世界的に同様に呼ばれているので、ここでは
「野菜名」+t,o,m,a の音声記号を重ねた略記号で表しました。
将来的には表意記号のみによる合理的表記も考えられます)
