DETERIORATION OF wooDLoTs
There Is Usually Almost No Young
Growth of Tree Species Where
Pastured Heavily.

Heavy pasturing of farm woods has
been one of the chief causes of their
deterioration, it has been found by the
forest service, United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. The severity Of
damage depends largely upon the
number of stock and the makeup Of
the woods. In heavily pastured woods
there is usually almost no young
growth Of the valuable tree species.
Cattle, horses, sheep, or goats eat
young seedlings, particularly the hard
woods, trample them out, or else
break them off. Hogs eat some kinds
of seed and thus prevent reproduction
from starting or root young seedlings
out of the ground and sometimes eat
the roots.
In those parts of the southern long
leaf pine region where hogs run wild
they are known to do a great deal Of
damage to the seedlings and often
damage trees several feet In height
When driven out of the swamps by
high water in the late winter and early
spring they root up the long-leaf pine
seedlings and devour the heavy roots.
Observations carried on In Louisiana
have shown stands Of several thousand
long-leaf pine seedlings per acre where
protected against hogs and no seed
lings on adjacent areas which were
unprotected.

PEA ROOT ROT FOUND
IN WESTERN STATES
Much of Seed Grown in Montana,
Idaho and Utah.
Survey Indicates That There Are In
cipient Cases of Disease in Nearly
All of the Most Important
Districts.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Does pea root-rot, so destructive In
the pea-canning sections of the Eastern
and Central states, occur in the impor-
tant seed-producing sections of the
West, or is there some basis for the
belief of the growers there that their
climate and soil safeguard them in
some way from loss? Is there any
danger of the spread Of pea diseases
with western seed.
Answers to these questions have
been made by specialists Of the bu.
reau Of plant industry, United States
Department Of Agriculture, who have
studied the pea disease situation dur
ing the past season, which has been
one of heavy loss in some of the older
sections of the country, where pea
root-rot has now become so common
that many fields are unproductive and
the continuation Of the industry seems
uncertain in some localities.
Much of the seed used in the East
Is grown in Montana, Idaho, and Utah,
where the industry is relativelas young.
A survey of these states, howV @er in
dicates that there are incipient cases
Of pea root-rot in nearly all Of the inn
portant districts and that under pres
ent conditions it will be only a matter
Of time before this type of trouble is
as widespread as 1t is in the East.
In the same way the western potato
growers, who formerly escaped root
troubles, now find their yields very
greatly curtailed by Fusarium blight,
Rhizoctonia, and other fungus para
sites which have increased with the
longer culture of the crop. The west
ern climate cannot be depended upon
to keep plants healthy. Growers
should therefore watch carefully for
the appearance of pea root-rot and
practice the longest possible rotations
to prevent it's development. The sit
uation is not one to justify undue
alarm, but these findings should be
taken seriously if the interests of the
pea crop in later years are to be safe
guarded.
/ The danger of spreading pea dis
eases with the seed Is minimized by
the department specialists, who point
out that only one disease, the leaf
and pod spot, is carried in this way,
and this is not as general or extensive
as has been believed.

age Of the sclerotia, or ergot bodies,
would, Of course, be blown out with
foreign material either as part of
the screenings or with the straw
through the blow stacker.
Ergot can be distinguished in ripen-
Ing wheat as large blush black bodies,
which in many instances are from
three to eight times as large as the
grain of wheat or rye which they dis
place in the head. Many Of these bod
les fall from the ripe wheat or rye
head during the process of harvesting
and lie on the ground all winter. They
terminate in the spring and produce
spores which infect the wheat or rye
head when it is in bloom.
AS a disease Of wheat, ergot has be-
come widely distributed across the
country from New York to Oregon and
from the Canadian border to the south
ern limits of wheat production, but not
until within the past three years has it
attracted more than passing attention.
From such observations as have been
recorded there is some reason to be-
lieve that the disease is becoming not
only more prevalent but is also more
widely distributed. The durum wheats
seem to be more subject to attack than
do the common wheats; at any rate,
reports based on field observations and
on samples Of thrashed grain show
higher percentage of ergot in the du-
rum varieties.
Ergot Is Poisonous to Live Stock.
The importance of ergot as cereal
disease lies not so much in its relation
to crop yield as it does in its poison
Gus effect upon animals that unwilling
ly have been given ration of screen
ings or other feed containing the ergot
bodies. It is now generally accepted
that flour made from wheat or rye is
unfit for food If it contains more than
one-tenth Of 1 per cent by weight of
ergot. Screenings obtained from wheat
or rye affected with ergot would nat
urally include ergot bodies, and these
when ground at the feed mill are
scarcely recognizable as part of the
grist. Such feed, when fed to poul-
try or other live stock, may result in
fatal poisoning.
AS a cereal disease, ergot may be
controlled by planting clean seed i'm
mediately after any other crop than
wheat or rye in which there was an
outbreak Of ergot.
Winter rye volunteers readily, and
these volunteer plants are almost al
ways badly infected with ergot. Sow
ing wheat after rye, therefore, is bad
practice, for, regardless Of whether the
ergot attacks the wheat, its presence
in volunteer rye is sure to leave con-
siderable quantity of both rye and err
got In the wheat as it comes from the
thrashing machine. This foreign mat
ter is likely to lower the grade Of the
wheat as we'll as affect its value for
bread-making purposes.
Freeing Seed Grain Of Ergot.
Rye or wheat containing ergot bod
les can be perfectly cleaned by pouring
the grain into vat or barrel contain
ing q 20 per cent solution Of common
salt and stirring thoroughly to bring
the ergot bodies to the surface. The
difference in specific gravity between
this solution and fresh water will bring
all ergot bodies, or pieces of such ma
terial, to the surface where they can
be skinned off. The brine should
then be drawn OFF and the grain then
washed in fresh water to remove any
salt remaining nM the saad
