wheat, was planned Wednesday morn
ing in the office of the county agent,
in a conference between R. H. Rogers
and D. Parker, agents of Purdue uni
versity and the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Mr. Rogers is a
former resident of Richmond.
A good demonstration of damage
fro1a rust harbored on barberry bush
es was found on Monday, shortly after
the workers arrived in the county, in
a wheat field adjoining the Harry
Patti grounds on the Middleboro pike.
Two bushes, three years old, had
caused almost absolute loss of wheat
near the bushes, while rust was found
scattered all over the field Some
: rust was found a mile to the north OF
/ the bushes, the fact that the spores
! had not spread farther being ascribed
; by Mr.. Rogers to the youth of the host
plants. Mr.. Patti at once gave his
consent to the removal of the bushes
| Mr.. Patti has given cordial support
to the workers in their campaign.
Report lnfestation.
Another bush over five feet il
height, was found July 4 on the car
road north of Richmond. Infestatior
with black stem rust has been report
ed from New Garden township also

rust during the spring stage. Millions
of spores may be spread from sin
gle bush to adjacent wheat, rye. oats
or barley fields, although the damage
to the wheat crop is the greatest
The loss for the last five years has
averaged 100000 bushels.
The common barberry is easily
identified when compared with the
Japanese species by its rather up
right habit of growth, its spiney
leaves, and its three-pronged thorns.
The Japanese variety which is harm
less. has smooth leaves and one-prong-
ed thorns and does not spread rust.
Neither variety has any connection
with the leaf rust which is prevalent
annually.
Serious Damage.
The black rust does serious damage
to the wheat for it shrivels the grain
and reduces the yield and sale value
and in some cases makes the croI
useless, except for chicken feed
A state law effective since 1919
forbids the planting of the harmful
barberry, and requires removal where
ever found. Any paintings should b.

OF FIGHTING ALCOHOL
(By United Press)


CHICAGO, July 5.-Austria lis at
last awake to the necessity of Ia great
action against alcohol Pref dent D.
NJ. Hainisch of that country stated in
a letter to Virgil G. HinshalT, presi-

formation to which most members OF
the American-Austrian committee will
also belong. Altogether the general
feeling at present in Austria is favor
able to the idea of alcoholism being
fought by means of public measures.
Large sections of the population
realize at last that a nation in our

therefore, all facilities for advancing
this consumption must be removed

utilizing this favorable feeling and
shall pave the way for comprehensive
prohibition of alcohol or at least do
the first steps towards that goal.
II am certain that now all agencies
at our disposal will start work, and
shall be able shortly to report on the
effect and success of our activity ID

'If my words which you publish in
the great American papers will con
tribute to furnish the development OF
the prohibition movement in America
this success will. hope. be also to
US a stimulus to fight most energet
ically in Austria and Europe alcohol
and its adherents."
