THE CAUSE OF BLACK RUST.

THE CAUSE OF BLACK RUST.
Some time ago the Wells Foru m
raised the point that the black rust
in wheat was caused by the barberry
bushes There were some who were
little sceptical about this, but an in
vestigation by Prof. Lugger, of the
state experimental station confirms
the views of the Forum. In trip of
inve stigation he four d the rust pre-
Yalent in patches of about twelve
miles in diameter generally, and in
every case where investigation was
made it was found to come from the
barberry bush. Upon the outer edge
Of the circle affected the wheat might
be fair, but as the explorers drew near
the center it became worse, until there
was practically no grain at ALL
Prof. Lugger says that the rust can
be prevented for the most part by
cutting out these barberry bushes,
which are Of no real value to the
farmers, but will spread this disease
among the grain. He says that on a
windy day in the prairie country, the
spores Of the black rust will blow for
