attacks it has made in recent years
on wheat. During the past summer
the loss due to its attacks on Mar
quis wheat alone was very consider
able.
To most farmers it is known famil-
iarly as wheat blight; to scientists it
is known as wheat scab. 1t is hoped
that ii may become more widely
known under the name Of wheat scab
as blight has been applied to several
different ailments in wheat. Wheat,
rye and barley are severely attacked
by this fungus. Oats, however, are
much less susceptible to the disease
so that the following of corn with this
crop allows one year for the organism
to die u in the ground. This allie.
viates the danger to a wheat crop
after oats.
Likewise, if wheat is followed by
clover and then corn, the same will
hold true. Where corn root rot or
wheat scab is abundant the ground
is well filed with rotted roots, max
ing it a very good bed in which the
disease will live over and remain to
