Prevention Of Sorghum and Kaflr Corn Smut.

9 The most common smut of the
cultivated sorghum is what is known
grain smut" caused by a fungus ALI
ed to the smut of corn, and which
grows entirely within tissues of the
plant, becoming externally evident
and most active in the Towering head,
where it consumes the food material
intended for seed formation. AT
maturity the affected heads consider.

pearance but in the interior the seed
kernalS are almost entirely, replaced
by a mass Of olive-brown, dusty
spores, the reproductive bodies
of the fungus. These spores germi
nate when the seeds are planted, send.
ing forth slender germ tubes, which
infect the young terminating grain

Within the host plant, the fungus
consist of very minute, slender
threads, the myceliem, which pene-
trate all the soft parts of the growing
stem. The result of the activity of
the fungus do net become manifest
until the head appears. The injury
done lies in the destruction of the
developing seed, and lin sorghum) in

endless surprises, and the air of nature which is cast over even the most extravagant situations make this play worthy of the popularity it has enjoyed in almost every country of the world.
