The farmers look on it with favor
for it yields more bushels per acre

SALT A REMEDY FOR WIFE, AT
RUST.


"Salt is sure cure for wheat
rust
The foregoing statement was made
to Fargo Forum reporter by James
Crombie of Wisconsin, who is the
grain expert for A. J. White & Co. OF
Chicago. Mr.. Crombie has made a
trip over a considerable portion of
North Dakota and Mani
toba In the interests of his firm, and
is impressed with the destructive
ravaRes Of rust In the wheat fields Of
the Northwest.
"Down In my part of Wisconsin, -
continued Mr.. Crombie, 1--WE are COM
PEELED to SOW salt en- the land to pre-
vent rust. Some SOW half bushel,
others a bushel, per acre. 1t is gener-
ally regarded that bushel will be a
preventative for two years.
There is no doubt about the
efficacy of the treatment. It has been
tried for years down our way and hat
always proved successful. Our fields
are small, and it is not difficult task
to treat them. We generally SOW the
salt after the seed IL In the ground, OF
about the time the wheat Is coming
up. I realize that it would be ar
enormous task to thus treat the great
territory In wheat in this state, but
1t would prevent such widespread
crop destruction as has occurred thil
