Embar.Assias Situation Lens Existant
clsarsd Up in Adiuta~t's Office.
Especial to Times Republican.
pes Moines. July 26.-Col. Louis G..
flasher. Of Davenport, is now acting
adtutnnt general, Of the state ana after
Sept. 1 will assume the tits Of adjutant
general.
Adjptapt General Logan has relin-
quished his duties after several strenu-
GUS years and will take a vacation.
afterN which he probably viii assume
his new duties as major in the adult
ant generals office Of the United
States at washington
A somewhat Embarrassing situation
has existed in the adjutant generals
office for ,thesphst six weeks. General
Logan was given i commission IN the
aviation service and notified Governor
Harding that he wished to resign as
tadjutant general in order to accept lit.
The governor asked him to remain UNI
til he could find q sHccessor. He did
so. In. the meantime = change took
place In the heads ~ the aviation de-
partment ut Washington and the new
Corners refused to recogniEe any of the
Logan's appointment failed to ma
terialize.
The governor however. appointed
Colonel Lasher to the place OF adjutant
wit hthe understanding that he would
begin his new duties June I. He sold
out his business in Davenport and was
here ready to start work June 1. There
was then no vacancy inasm1lch as
Logan's new appointment was never
certified. Colonel Lasher took desk
In the office and proceeded to study the
work altho he received no pay for the
time spent.
In June word was received that Gen.
eral Logan had received an appoint
ment as major in the adJutant gen
erals department. This furnished an
opportunity for a solution Of the GEN
eral mix-up so General Logan left this
week for a vacation and is expected to
take up his new work about Sept. 1.
The office Of the state ad3utant gem
eral now pays $4,000 per year and car
rfes with it the duties Of custodian of
the capitol building and grounds. For
period Of twelve months, starting
with the time the national guard was
mopll1zlng In June, 1915, to go down to
Mexico. the office paid $1,000 per year.
This came about thru an enactment by
the legislature that during war times
the adjutant general was to receive the
pay Of brigadier-genera It had been
expected by the legislators when they
passed this law that the government
would pay the adjutant generals sal
airy in war times. The government,
however, would not do this. The last
legislature repealed the provision
which gave the adjutant general the
brigadi salary and fixed the
pay at $1,000.
General Logan came to the office
from Montgomery county. as assistant
adtutant general, in 1905, and was
made adjutant in February, 1909. He is
given credit with having built up one
OF the most efficient national guard
organizations Of any state in the union.

FIiahtIess Parrot.

When Macquarrie island, situated
600 miles to the south Of New Zealand.
was discovered in $780, it was in
habited by a peculiar flightless parrot
described by a contemporary who saw
numbers OF the birds which were
brought to Sydney by sealers as ..the
glibbest OF the loQuacious tribe" Re-
cent investigation Of the island makes
1t almost certain that this strangely
isolated specimen OF the parrot family
is completely extinct. probably as re-
suit Of the introduction of cats, which
have become wild and overrun the
island.

FUNGI OF SEVERAL TYPES AT
TACK FIELDS IN BLACK HAWK
COUNTY,.
FIFTY PER CENT OF
FIELDS AFFECTED
Black Chat, New Disease Coming From
Southern Section Of United States,
Also Appears in Black Hawk County
Strange MaIady Drives Northwest
Iowa Cattle Insane,

Waterloo, July 26.-The principal
loss to spring wheat Of Black Hawk
county this year is due to different
fungus diseases. The principal, one of
these Is wheat scab, In Investigations
A. A. Burger and NJ. A. ,Hauser of
Ames found on an average of about so
per cento the field infected. This dis
ease can be distinguished by the pink
coloreds mold in the heads.
Rlacf chat, a new disease coming
from the southern part OF the United
States. is found this year in the wheat
fields OF this section. 1t is noticeable
for black discoloration of the hull or
glume which surrounds the wheat ker-
mel. 1t appears in black streaks The
disease penetrates thru the covering
of the kernel and into the kernel it,
self and Is difficult If not almost TIM
possible to destroy
The next most common diseases are
anthracnose and septoria. Anthracnose
Is fungus disease which appears on
the stem in the joints Of the plant
causing the Joint to enlarge with a
discoloration OF the straw. The sep
toria is SIMILAR to the black chat but
| affects the entire glume in which the
| wheat kernel is situated.
Blunt Noticeable In Places:
In some fields bunt was noticeable.
Blunt rs also known as closed smut and
destroys the entire kernel. 1T is easily
transmitted from one field to another.
This year there Is very little O: the
| common disease known as black stem
rust. This is the disease which is
transmitted from the European bar
| berry to the wheat plant and under
favorable conditions 1t Is one Of the
most common fungus diseases Of
wheat.
Suggest Use Of Fan Mill.
Some of the diseases winrs s.avs
been mentioned are impossible to era
dicate but most OF them could be part
Fly eliminated, by the use OF the fan
mill. a most thorough tanning and the
formalin or formaldehyde. Wheat must
be selected for seed from sections
where these diseases are not common.
For several years it has been the COM
| mon opinion that the crop has been
discontinued because OF certain ele-
ments of the soil which have become
depleted. This likely Is not the cause
| for spring wheat seems to grow as
well as ever with the heads appearing
| and the Kernels forming as well as in
days when spring wheat was COM
| mon crop. It is more likely that the
growing of spring wheat has been re-
duced because Of these common fun
| gus diseases which we are Just begin
| ming to And out have caused thousands
| of dollars OF damage. Investigations
are going on looking forward to their
| eradication and s. doubtless in time
! methods win be found OF controlling

BONUS FOR j. S. CLERKS
Representative Sherley Says Govern
ment's Employees Will Be Aided
in Fight on H. c. of L.

Assurance that government employees
will be taken care of and granted a
substantial bonus to meet the present
abnormal living cost was made on the
floor of the House yesterday by Rep
resentative Swagar Sherley of Ken
lucky, chairman of the House commit
teen on appropriations.
Representative Sherley said that
conferences had been held between
members of all the committees in charge
Of appropriations for government en-
ployes' salaries. including both sides
of the House. He said that out of such
conferences would come a proposition.
possibly as an independent measure,
which would provide for government
employees generally on a percentage
basis.
The question was brought up when
the Indian appropriation bill did not
contain any provision for increases.
The statement made by Representa-
tive Sherley to the House confirms the
news printed exclusively in The Star,
a week ago, that Speaker Clark, Repre-
sentative Sherley and other leaders
were arranging to take care of in
creased compensation for the federal
employees in one general measure,
rather than in the number of appro-
priations bills considered by separate
committees.
