attempted to overcome the difficulty
by dchydratlng or drying the timber

Sinking Smut Infection
Is Widespread In Rush

RUSHVILLE, Ind, July 19-Infec-
ton of Rush county wheat by sinking
smut is widespread and serious this
year, the county agent reports. Plans
for controlling the smut by co-opera-
tive action within the threshing rings
are being discussed.
Unless every farmer in a ring
treats his wheat, smut will be carried
from infected farms to others by the
threshing machine, elimination of the
disease therefore being a community
problem, says the agent Treatment
with formaldehyde, much simpler
treatment than for the loose smut
which requires more complex hot
water treatment, will kill the smut
spores.
