CORN RUST.
How the Black Spores Can BE Enectuali
Destroyed.


How the Black Spores Can BE ETectuaIiy
Destroyed.
Corn rust, a fungus similar to wheat
rust, which is common on the leaves Of
corn, ordinarily docs not appear to
grow in large enough quantities to dc
much damage. 1t is usually seen on
the mature leaves, late in the season.
/ have observed it several times on the
lower leaves of partly grown corn,
whose vigor was plainly impaired by it.
The fungus is similar TO wheat rust, yet
lifIcrent enough TO be recognized by the
experienced microscopic as a distinct
kind. 1t has its two kind of spores,
growing from the same fungus tissue,
red rust" and "black rust" Both &C.
eur in rounded or elongated clusters Of
small size, bursting through the epider-
mis- on both sides of the leaf. The ''red
rust comes earlier and is lighter in
color. Every cluster contains hundreds
of spores, each of which is nearly globu-
lar, yellowish, borne on a slender stalk,
from which it easily falls. 1t can not
live over winter and must terminate
soon after its formation if at all. The
"black rust" comes later, forms dark
clusters or patches. Each spore is double
OF two-celled, and borne on a perma-
nent stalk. 1t will not terminate until
next spring. Its office is to carry the
fungus over the winter. Where the
| first leayeA are found diseased early in
the season, all the leaves are likely t
become infected later, and if this latter
occurs, the young leaves will probably
suffer the next spring.
Apply the following remedy; Assoor
as the corn is gathered, burn all tn,
stalks and leaves not needed for fodder
and thus destroy the black spores. Dc
not plant corn on the same land mex
year. The corn rust will injure NJ
other farm crop.-Prof Seymour, II
