from field to field. The red or orange
Icolored spores which cause the red
color OF the young growing grain are
cut of in countless numbers from
parasitic mould-like flaments which
bore into the wheat plant and run be-
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
a viable rust spore falls on a young
wheat plant and there is sufficient
moisture to terminate the spore a new
infection spot is made from which the
disease spreads internally. Wheat
rust also attacks q number Of wild
grasses 80 that there is always a sup
ply of the spores to be blown about
by the wind and the crop attack is
light OF heavy largely because of the
moisture conditions Of the atmos-
phere. II there is not sufficient
moisture to terminate the spores then
there will be no large attack of rust,
but II there is plenty Of dew and damp
weather at the right season then the
crop Is apt to be largely infected.
It is possible that If fields were
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

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 a number Of years, however,
we have been working upon the mode
Of attack by rust and have learned
some valuable facts, one Of which ia
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

BROWN DAIRY TRYs ALFALFA
WILL SOW 50 ACRES MORE
Prof. L r. waldron

You ask for my experience and results
in feeding those two cars Of alfalfa that
| fed this winter to my dairy cows. The
below help to substantiate your
for the plant. and your advice
to the farmers of this community to plant
more of it is well founded. and it is to
be hoped many will do 80. / put in 40
acres last spring and will SOW 80 more
this spring. After we began feeding
the alfalfa. there was an %appreciable
gain in the milk flow : so we decreased
the amount of mill feed about 100 lbs.
per day. The difference in the amount
of mill feeds used in the two cases,
and the difference in the milk flow was
SO great that it will be of considerable
interest and value, to give the figures
to the readers of the PRESS.
While the COWS were being fed alfalfa,
the following-wa s the daily record:
Mill-feed fed 225 lbs.
Alfalfa fed $50 lbs.
Amount of milk IS gallons.
When the change was made to prairie
hay it was found necessary to increase
the mill feeds. and we have the follow
ing daily record:
Mill feed fed 800 lbs.
Prairie hay fed $50 lbs.
Amount of milk IS gallons.
The alfalfa hay cost ST. per ton and
the mill feed costs $23 and $24 per ton.
From the foregoing figures it is seen that
each ton of alfalfa produced 173 eallont
ofmilk.e Prairie hay produced 147 gallons
Of milk. This leaves a difference in
favor of each ton Of alfalfa of rs gal.
Ions of milk. The rs gallons of mill
was worth S.. 50! With alfalfa at $11
per ton. the common prairie hay wat
worth but SIC. so per ton.
ONLY HALF THE STORY.
But this is evidently only half the
story. Please notice that I had to feed
IS pounds extra of mill feeds every da,
while feeding prairie hay and still
stand the shrinkaae of milk flow.
From the figures l gave one readily
sees that the mill feed fed to the COW
tc produce each 100 gallons of milk,
while the cows were eating alfalfa,
cost $4.15. The mill feed to product
similar results. during the time I fee
prairie hay, cost S6.54. There was q
saving in mill feed for each 100 gallons
of milk of 81. 80.
l changed the hay feed from alfalfs
to prairie hay and increased the mil
feeds at the same time. Therefore /,
Is impossible to tell exactly how much
more valuable the alfalfa was than tn,
prairie hay to me. 1t is a pretty safe
guess that If prairie hay was worth
So 90 per ton. I could have afforded
to pay $40. 90 per ton for the alfalfa. OF
course there was q natural shrinkage
in milk flow but even considering tina,
I think l am pretty safe in making tn.

PAPkE DECLINES TO BOX
 MANTELl: ON BLACKLIST

NEW YORK. Oct. l. - Billy Pap ke, formerly middleweight champion. automatically placed himself on the blacklist of the State Athletic con- mission by refusing to fight Frank Mantcll al the New Star A. C. Pap ke. before announcing his refusal, cast a furtive eye over the club house and by some lightning cal cuiation figured that his remunera- ton would not be very substantial
 t was reported that Papke's de- termination was somewhat influenc- ed by the receipt of cable saying that George Carpentier the French champion. would not agree to meet him should he lose to Mantell. Papke is to sail on the Mauretania in the morning.
 It is doubtful now if the projected bout between Papke and the French man will take place, as Boxing Con- missioner O'Neill is incensed over Papkes action and will get into com, munication with Paul Rousseau, president of the confederation of French boxers, requesting that Pap Ike be barred from fighting in France.

CHARLIE WHITE GIVEN
 WHIPPING BY TRACY

SYRACUSE, Oct l. Charlie White received a little the worst oi it in his fight with Harry Tracy of Philadelphia before the Syracuse City A. C. here tonight. The pop ular decision went to the Philadel- phia boy on points.
 The stlye of the two men was entirely different. White waited for his opponent to force the fight while Tracy was aggressive and always on the jump. At no time during the fight was there a great deal of slugging.
 White tried several times to land a knockout blow. but some of his wide swings which looked like sure slams were missed through the clever lodging of his adversary.
 For the first three rounds the fighters fused around testing each other Tracy, however, bothered the Chicago boy by his clever foot work and lodging. He had Char lie missing repeatedly.
 At the opening of the fourth round the referee warned the two boys to get going or he would stop the bout Then White stepped in, only to get the worst of an exchange of blows to the body and face.
 For the next three rounds Tracy seemed to be the master, having White guessing After a word from his manager at the opening of the ninth session, White started to fight, and for the two final rounds worked hard. but was unable to overcome the advantage gained by Tracy.
 Both men weighed 12S pounds ringside. White had an advantage over his adversary in reach

Wigfall, who was charged with attacking Mrs. Esther Higgins.
