FROM the Southern Cultivstor.
Practical Hints on Raising Wheat

The wheat plant and it's seed, being
very nutritious, are quite subject to the
attacks Of parasites, both animal and
vegetable. OF the latter, "rust" and
smut" are mos, common. Or tho former,
the Hessian fly and wheat Ay or midgs,
are most destructive and prevalent
Could the wheat grower discover pre-
ventive OF thsse evils, It would gres,ly
encourage the cultivation Of this staple
in the South, to the benefit Of all classes
but no sure remedy 10 likely to be found,
and palliatives slone are within our reach.
Late seeding is psrhape the best pre-.
vsntive ofserious injury from the Hessiau
fly. Thi, insect deposits eggs on ,bs
leaves Of wheat, 6rst when the plants are
a 70" inches high, whore they soon hatch
minute worms which psss dom the leaf
between the sheaf aud stem where, near
the lower joint, they attach themselves 10
the stsm and grow 10 full maturity by
sucking the juices Of the plant. The fly
comes out early enough iu April or March,
in the South, TO raise a second and far
moro numerous generation before the
~hes, gets ripe. These insecrs Gauss the
plant to look sickIy and fall down, and
sometimes wholly destroy the crop.
The midge or proper wbea, tiy, attacks
the seed when in the milk and before. i,s
offspring destroying it in part. or wholly
as the starch and gluten are formed
Smut does precisely the same, only the
product belongs to one Of tho lowest
types OF cellular plants. being q mace Of
black te,id cells Of extreme mixtursness.
Fortunately washing seed in bluestone or
salt brine will kill the germs OF smut on
the grain and in clean land prsven. the
