LITTLE
DANGER
OF RUST
Specialist in Plant Diseases
at Minnesota Experiment
Station, Authority.

st. Paul; Mimi, April 20.--"Don't lei
rust scare you out of planting wheat,
says DIR. e. M. Freeman, specialist In
plant diseases at the Minnesota ex-
pertinent station. THE chances are
against q serious return of rust this
year. Grow all the wheat you can"
The chances of two years russ in
succession are not great The hiaSory
of Minnesota shows that serious sSss-
es by rust have not occurred ofSNner
than from five to ten years apart.
Must can be done also to prevent
rust by sowing the seed early in order
to get ahead OF the rust. Something
may also, be done by digging out every
common barberry bush, because bar
berry bushes harbor rust. Certain
kinds Of Durum wheat also are re-
sistant to rust and largely grown in
regions where other conditions are
suitable. If one grows Durum wheat
he should be sure to get the rust-re-
sistant variety Of seed.
Even in some so-called rust years
good average crops have been grown
continues DIR. Freeman. The following
figures for spring wheat in the north
west show this:
1904 (heavy rust) 12.S blu. per acre
1905 Qittle or no rust) 14.7 bu per acre
1911 (fairly heavy rusD ga blu. per
acre.
1912 crust only in spots) 49, bu. per
acre.
DIR. Freeman issues this statement
to calm the fears on the part of farm
ers that there may be a repetition Of
last years losses from rust.

crop, produced last year one fifth, /. e..
$40 millions of bushels out of an aver
age world production of $1,000, 900
bushels. So much of last years North
American crop has been exported that
there is a serious shortage in the
present supplies for milling. There
is less wheat in store at present than
for many years, and more people to
feed. There seems to be no need OF
fear of overproduction.
In 1915, Minnesota, North and South
Dakota and Montana raised 323,000.-
900 bushels of wheat In 1915, only
20,360, 900, or a little more than one
third of the crop of the previous year.
Our mills are able to run only part
of the time for lack Of wheat, and
-four is continually rising. That pric-
es will remain high is indicated by
the prices offered for futures on the
wheat market.
In view of such facts it seems i'm
possible to overproduce wheat this
year. Every acre that can be put in
should be sown. Last years expert
ence with rust and hot winds should
be no deterrent to sowing wheat
this year. history shows that
rust has never followed two
years in succession. Weather con-
ditions, Of course, affect the
wheat crop and no one can tell what
it will be. The risk, however, Is not
great and should be taken. Early
sowing, early varieties and formalin-
treated seed sown on a well prepared
seed bed lessen the risk. Wheat may
safely be sown up to May 1 and there

RICE-BRAN
FEED POOR
FOR HOGS
Ration Will Cause Animals
to Dress "Soft", Impair
ing Market Value.
(By Associated Press.)

Chicago. Ill, April 20.-That a rice
bran ration win cause hogs to dress
soft" thereby lowering their quality
and their market value, has just been
proved by tests conducted at the
Texas Agricultural Experiment sta
tfon. The conclusion of the Texas
experts settles a question OF long
standing between the farmers OF GER
tain southern districts and the pack
ers who have been buying their hogs.
DR.. r, J. H. DeLoach, expert on ag-
ricultural research and education for
Chicago packer visited Texas re-
Gently for the purpose Of investigat-
ing the soft meat question. Upon
consultation with farmers and the
authorities at the Texas Experiment
station, he found that considerable at
tention had already been given to
this work and that the experiment.
station had just made new discover
les Of the causes OF soft meat. DIR.
DeLoach says:
THE tests conducted by the Texas
Experiment station authorities, throw
light on a subject that previously had
been much in the dark. For a long
time farmers in certain sections, espe-
ciaIIy in the peanut growing districts.
have sold their hogs under an agree
ment that the top prices would not be
paid for animals that dressed soft.
When the hogs did dress soft, the
packers suspected they had been fed
on peanuts, but nine times out of ten
the farmers indignantly-and justly
so as it now seems-denied il.
Their vigorous assertions that they
had not fed the hogs on feed that was
recognized as causing them to dress
soft. led me, among others, 70 visit the
field. found that rice bran was much
used as a feed and after a rather
tedious investigation and much ques-
tioning, some Of the farmers admitted
that they believed rice bran was the
cause of the hogs dressirs soft.
sJust at this time the Texas experts
finished experiments which are con-
elusive and which satisfy me that rice
bran Is similar in effect to peanuts
The Texas authorities are soon 20 is
sue a bulletin 20 that effect
'Tf the discovery lessons the number
OF hogs that dress soft, well and good;
but even IL Il does not. the discovery
win az least settle point that has
caused much controversy between the
sellers and buyers Of hogs.
