10 PreYcHf Sinking Smut in
Wheat.
(Weekly Agricultural Letter.)

"CCA1y AB1ICultukhL LcttcT.)
Sinking smut in wheat was pre-
valent in a good many places in
Missouri the past season. This in
jury can be prevented by little
care on the part of the farmer in
selecting and treating the seed. In
the first place every farmer should
own a tanning mill, and every
bushel of wheat to be used for seed
should be winded heavily. It will
pay to blow out from 20 to so per
cent of the lighter grains. Then
if the farmer cannot obtain seed
free from smut he can prevent its
occurrence the next year by the
following treatment: Take Il one
pound bottle of formalin and mix
this one pound with so gallons of
water. This will be sufficient for
treating 35 bushels of wheat. Keep
the formalin bottle securely corked
and do not mix until ready for use.
After clearing off the barn floor
thoroughly wet the floor with the
formalin water, then spread on a
layer Of wheat using only that
which has been run through the
tanning mill. Then with an ordi-
nary sprinkler go over the wheat
wetting 1t thoroughly, shoveling
it over and resprinkle until every
kernel is wet. In this way treat
what seed is needed. It will also
be we'll to wash out the grain drill
with the formalln water. After
treating, the wheat may be spread
out on . clean canvas in the sun to
dry after which it should be put
into clean bags. 1t will not do to
put it back into the bags that con-
tanned the smutted wheat. AS
soon as dry the wheat may then be
sown.
It is useless to SOW affected
wheat without treatment, and it is
q short sighted policy for the
farmer to SOW any kind Of wheat,
however clean it may be from any
disease, without first discarding
the poorer grains.
