Because of the fact that the official
returns from many Of the precincts
have not been received, it is impos-
sible to give the exact vote on all
the Offices. The Record herewith

An extremely light vote was cast
in northern Emmons because of the
fine weather election day. The
farmers were looking after their
thrashing and many failed to 90 to
the polls. Even Livona, with vote
usually Of more than sixty, only
polled fifty this year. Clayton,
Usually over sixty. polled forty-five.
Rocks usual solid vote in Stras-
burg went glimmering this year.
Fogle got fifteen votes away from
Rocks even in Westtield precinct.

color on the young growing grain are

tween the cellular parts Of the plant.
breaking out in certain points to form
large masses of spores.
A rust sick plant is sick inside; that
Is to say is parasitized. Every time
viable rust spore falls on a young
wheat plant and there Is sufficient
moisture to terminate the spore new
infection spot is made from which the
disease spreads internally. Wheat
rust also attacks number of wild
grasses 80 that there is always a sup
ply Of the spores to be blown about
light or heavy largely because Of the
moisture conditions of the atmos-
lphere. If there Is not SUFFICIENT
moisture to terminate the spores then
there will be no large attack Of rust,
but If there is plenty of dew and dAmp
weather at the right season then the
crop is apt to be largely infected.
1t is possible that IL fields we're
properly sprayed at the proper time
some advantage would come from the
spraying work. but the fact remains
that nobody knows Just when to spray.
and also there is great difficulty in
getting a solution to moisten the
leaves Of the wheat without destroy
ing 1t. The fact also remains that
carefully conducted spraying expert
ments have failed to stop the develop
ment Of wheat rust Spraying for the
prevention of rust, therefore. would
seem to be for the most part out Of
the question.
During number of years, however.
we have been working upon the mode
of attack by rust and have learned
some valuable facts, one Of which is
that wheat rust very often attacks the
wheat grains internally. causing the
grains not only to shrivel but some
times masses of spores are found i'm
bedded inside the bran layers. We

Rusting of cereal grains is one Of
the most difficult problems the farmer
has to deal with. From time to time
as each rust epidemic comes on we
get many letters asking what can be
done. 1t is easy for anyone to see
that 1t is a difficult proposition to ar
range any plan Of cropping which will
do away with wheat rust, for the rea-
son that 1t is an infectious disease
