colored grain even in absence OF wet
at harvest time, for these fungi stain
and blister or loosen the seed coats
even in nearly full formed grains. 1t
accounts in part for the apparently
great destruction caused by a COM
paratively slight attack of rust, for
in such cases these diseases greatly
exaggerate the injury done by the rust
fungi. 1t explains why seed grain
should always be disinfected before
sowing, for even plump, undiseased
grains are found to carry the spores
of these minute fungi on the exterior,
busted on at threshing time. 1t ex-
plains why the fresh uncomposted
barn yard manure applied to clean
wheat lands are often found to be
very destructive to the crop, for such
manures are often thoroughly con-
taminated with living spores of these
wheat disease producing fungi which
have been introduced into the barn.
yard manures and highly developed
there because of the diseased wheat
straw used as bedding for the stock.
Finally it gives clear cut reason
which anyone. can understand for
proper, long serted, crop rotation
methods, and explains why nothing
less than the plumpest, best colored,
heaviest wheat grains should be Sc
lected for seed, for no internally par
asitized wheat grain can be both
plump and clean of color, nor can it
produce a healthy or normal yield.

or rust nor smut can compare as
wheat destroyers with the heretofore
supposedly innocent genera. Helmln-
thosporium, ColletOtrichum, Fusarlum,
Alternaria and Macrosporium. Species
of these fungi are regular inhabitants
of the soils of old wheat areas and at
tack as internal parasites the ROOFS
stems, leaves and seeds OF the wheat
plant, and are transmitted by the
seed as internal parasites to the seed
Nngs of the new crop.
OF these genera mentioned, it is yet
impossible to affirm which one is most
destructive, but all aid, either sew
orally or individually in bringing
about seed deterioration and soil
sickness. No mother plant once at
tackled can produce normal berry
as to color, textures and weight quail
ity. Even crops cured under can
vas may thresh out seed giving all
the appearance of field bleaching and
blistering.
The Sanitary View Point.
This new sanitary view point in
wheat cropping, l hold should give
new hope to the wheat and cerial
growers. It gives new light on many
questions. 1t explains why supposedly
virgin soils when surrounded by old
wheat areas no longer are certain to
produce plump wheat, and why first
class titled and trained lands, as in
corn culture or summer fallow, may
only produce shrivelled seed, because
disease contaminated seed is sown
thereon; also why corn culture or
summer fallow with plump, we'll COL
ored, treated seed may give old time
yields of good quality, even on old
wheat soils, for such culture, through
aeration, etc., tends to free the land
of these rather delicate fungi so that
healthy seed sown there thrives more
nearly normally. 1t explains why it
g so difficult to get normally good

WHY wheat Yields
ARE GROWING SMALL
(Prof, II. L. BoIIey of the State 49,
ricuIturaI coIIege.)

While the total annual output IN
bushels in the three spring wheat
states, is perhaps as great as Ill any
previous period, even larger year ny
year, l think all agree that THIS Is >
primarily due to the breaking up OF
new land areas and not to Increased
Yields per acre. Further, all, l thlnK'
agree that the quality of grain or per-
nv is maintained only upon the rela'
lively new land areas OF the west
and northwest prairies. Most farm
ers are agreed that, in general, there
is constant deterioration in yield per
acre and in the quality of the berry IN
the older wheat areas, as for exam
ple in south Minnesota and in the
east and southeast counties or the
Dakotas, and particularly IN the heo
River valley, and in the older areas
of Manitoba like conditions prevail.
The grass or straw produced IS ap-
parently as great as in the previous
Years. but is inferior in texture,
strength and color, while the grain
which is produced is no longer gen.
orally plump and of proper amber COL
or. This is especially true OF Fife
and Blue Stem varieties. 1t is also
noted by those who observe closely
that the new varieties introduced, as
for example, the Durum types and
Velvet chaff, do we'll only for year
or two, then fall off rapidly in the
qualities of plumpness, hardness,
color and milling value, and finally
after but few years trial yield even
less per acre than the bread wheats
previously men toned. 1t is apparent
ly a fact that there are large areas
or regions in which the yield can
hardly be expected to reach the sixty
Id. per bushel in weight quality.
Numerous Theories Advanced.
Numerous theories have been ad-
vanced and are yet given for expla-
nation of these facts. Some beg the
whole question by the claim that con
slant cropping has exhausted the
land" Others, that careless and In.
competent tillage has placed the land
in poor physical condition" Some
specifically assume that available nj
trogen and humus have been with
