BARBERRY HEDGES RUINOUS
North Dakota Makes Appropriation
to War Against Whcat's Enemy.

FARGO, n. D., June 16.-Barperry
hedges were charged last year with
causing a decrease Of Ill 900, 900
bushels in North Dakota's wheat crop
and the last legislature appropriated
5000 for two years campaisn
against the bush. J. n. Hagan, state
secretary of agriculture, was entrust-
ed with the work and he has recently
reported that his special agents are
busy on their mission of eradication.
1t is believed the work will be so eff
fective that millions of bushels OF
wheat will be AIDED to the state crop
as the result.
According to agricultural experts
the barberry hedge Is responsible for
the rust which devastates wheat fields.
1t is stated the rust does not inocu
late the soil or the seeds. 1t is not
a disease but a fungus resulting from
the accumulations of barberry bush
pollen,
