new DISEASE OUT.
Wheat Is Being Damaged by
Peculiar Infection.
Extent of Harm Depends on
Weather, Says X. S. A. C.

Manhattan, Kan. June 25.-A pecu-
liar wheat disease has suddenly ap
peared in many fields in different
parts of the state. This disease is
characterized by striped blackening
of the chaft together with black or
brown areas on the stems. The
glumes and boards of affected heads
are so highly tinged with brown and
black that from a distance many
fields look as if they had been
scorched by fire. This is not the black
stem rust, states L. E. Melchers, plant
pathologist in the Agricultural col
lege, although many farmers thought
this to be the case. 1t is a new plant
disease in Kansas being caused by
fungus about which very little is
known in the United States. 1t was
reported in one of the northern states
seventeen years ago, but at that time
no damage was inflicted upon the
wheat crop. What the result will be
from the attack on the Kansas wheat
crop will depend upon the weather
conditions the next six days. Low
spots in the fields have been the CEN
ters of infection in most instances and
wheat fields on the lowlands are ap-
parently the first to be attacked.
In connection with this "black
chaff' disease, another plant disease
commonly known as wheat scab is be-
ginning to appear. This can be told by
a more or less pink colored fungus
mold growing from the chaff. These
two diseases together, and also addi-
tional moldS are causing many wheat
heads in part to take on a water
soaked appearance, later being fol-
lowed by molds and eventually decay.
Sometimes the tips of the heads or the
bases are the only parts of the wheat
heads which are attacked but this
may spread to the centers of the
spikes.
Wheat fields which are in the milk
stage and which show signs of these
diseases are the most liable to suffer,
while those which are approaching the
dough stage will suffer less. The
wheat scab is known to cause consid-
cradle Shrivelling of the grain at times.
The weather conditions this season
have been most favorable for the de-
velopment and spread of these dis
unless the rain ceases and sufficient
within the next few days, the damage
from the combined attack OF these dis
eases may be serious in many fields.
Especially are those wheat fields in
danger which are badly lodged. The
plants do not dry off and this makes
it posi- BILE for these diseases to spread
rapidly.
There is nothing that can be done to
prevent these pests this season, and
the damage which will result depends
a, great deal upon climatic conditions.
1t is highly desirable that the seed for
the next year be selected and thrashed
from fields which are free from all
signs of disease.

Band HAS CHANCE
Marshall's May Yet Go to
Seattle With Shriners.
Cutting Out the Fairs Will Re-
duce the Expense.

Marshans band may yet go to Seat
tie or the occasion, of the pilgrimage
of the Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine
to that far western oasis. The gen
orally expressed opinion is undivided
that the band should go, and the
enthusiastic members of the local
Shrine club have worked hard to put
the big band at the head of the Kan
SaS contingent on the trip across the
desert Owing to the wet weather
the source of the biggest part OF the
fund fell through, and the shows at
the fair grounds were a losing VEN
ture.
1t is now proposed to abandon the
California side trip, and go to Seattle
and back direct, and by so doing re-
duce the expense. By this change Of
itinerary only about $1,000 more will
have to be raised which is about one
third, or a little less, of the total
The bandsmen are not inclined to al
low the matter to go by the board for
want of an effort and will arrange
popular price concert to be given soon
at the Auditorium, believing that the
friends of the band will rally to the
call for this deficit The officers of
the band have been urged to do this,
and many have expressed a willing
ness to lend a hand in making this
the best attended concert ever held in
the city.

lag in this opportunity to put their

tingent at Seattle said business
Mason, but mighty proud of our
band. Topeka has been greatly bene-
fitted by that band, and whenever it
has gone away from home it has done
us more good than it has cost ten
times over. There should be no hest
fancy in getting behind this scheme
to advertise Topeka and Kansas on
this pilgrimage
Count me in on this" said another
band fan who listened to the first
speaker. IT will contribute $25 to see
the band go on this trip, and con-
slider it money we'll spent. We ought
not to ask the Shrine club to shoulder
all this burden in addition to their
own expenses; let's help EN- put it
over"
MarshalTs band will give its best
concert of the season at CheSney park
this evening. The band boys are
keyed up to concert pitch Just now
over the proposed concert at the
Auditorium. They have been work
ing hard to prepare for this long pill
grimage with the Mobiles of the Mystic
Shrine, and have not given up hope
though they have to cut the California
fair from their itinerary. Much new
music has beer rehearsed, and several
of the latest hits will be heard in their

TO PUT OUT MOSQUITOES.
Great Bend Fire Department Called
When Man Took Swarm for Smoke.

Great Bend, June 25.-While union
meetings were in progress at the
Methodist church here, one home
staying citizen saw a dense cloud
above the Hume flour mill. He
dashed to the telephone and gave the
alarm and spectacular run was
made with the fire auto after an ex-
citing time getting it into motion.
The run was made valiantly enough
and hundreds of citizens turned out
to aid in the fight, but the smoke"
faded when the crowd bore down and
the mosquito alarm left everybody
laughing and slapping the nuisances
away. The swarm had been so dense
that it looked exactly as if it were a
smoke cloud.
