FARM BUREAU DOES

Shipping Associations So Vital

one of the most successful devel-

markets As a basis for these or
CARNATIONS the Cooperative Live
stock Shipping Association had been
the logical foundation. These local
units which have been growing by
tremendous strides during the last
few years feed livestock into the
terminals and consign their ship

CEDAR TREE RUST
RUIN TO APPLES
Mystery of Diseased Apple
Tree Is Solved as Culprit
Tree Is Found Near.

In one of the counties near Ind
annapolis a man was complaining
about not being able TO get any APP
pies. The tree blossomed well but
ne said the leaves got yellow and
little or no fruit was produced. Right
near this tree was a cedar or two
gals that are known as cedar ap-
just covered with large Shiny brown
pies There was the explanation
of his trouble. The apple tree
was diseased every year with apple
rust and cedar tree covered with
other cedar apples was the culprh.
This case is similar TO hundreds
of others in Indiana, says c. T.
Gregory Of the botany extension staff
of Purdue University in a bulletin
to the News-Times farm editor.
The relation between the cedar
trees and the apple rust can easily
be proven by anyone now Examine
cedar trees that are 200 feet or less
from apple trees and the cedar ap-
pies will be found abundantly, es-
pecially right after a rain. The
nearer the cedar is TO the apples
the greater the number Of cedar
apples that Will be founnd. Then
examine a cedar that is along the
roadside or out in a field a long
way from apples and not a single
cedar apple will be found. These
cedar apples are round. hard. brown
gulls that become covered with
brown jelly-like horns right after
rains.
The apple trees near the cedar
will be found to have bright orange
yellow spots on the leaves and also
on the fruit. Usually the leaves
turn entirely yellow and fall The
trees either produce no fruit or else
a very poor lot.
The explanation of this is that
he cedars carry the apple rust
parasite over the winter From the
cedar-apples the rust fungus is
blown TO the apple. In other words
the cedar trees bear the same rela-
ton TO the apple that the barberry
does TO the black stem rust of
wheat. Cedar trees near apples are
menace and should be cut down.
Some men have planted cedar trees
as a wind break for their apple
orchard. This should never be done.
IF the wind brock is needed some
other kind of trees should be used
Certain orchardists have solved the
/ roblcm by buv'ng n ..si trees
from their neighDors and cutting
them down.

BLACK ROT FOUND
IN CABBAGE ACRES
Disease Is Spread by Insects
and Rain Control Plague
by Preparation.

Several farmers who are using
the Wisconsin All Seasons Cabbage
which is immune from Cabbage yell
lows have complained 10 the Agri-
cultural Station at Purdue that this
disease had appeared on their plants
this year An examination was
made by T. c. Gregory Of the EXten-
sion staff who found il was black rot
and not the familiar yellows. al
though apparently the latter disease.
The leaves were yellow on one
side. were bent toward the yellow
side, and when the petioles of the
leaves were split the sap tube was
found 10 be black However, this
blackening did not extend down into
the stem anc into the roots as it
does in YelloWs This is because
the black rot germ attacks the leaf
through the edges or through in
sect bites and then goes down the
vein into the sap tube. into the
stem, and up into the other leaves.
The yellow fungus attacks the root
and goes up through the sap tube
of the stem into the leaf. If the
blackening Of the sap tube does
not extend up into the leaves il
is not yellows
The black rot causes the affected
papery area he veins stand out as
and finally become papery. In the
part Of the leaves 10 turn yellow
black streaks The disease is caused
by a germ and is spread i'm the
field by insects AMI spaJtering OF
the rain. The disease cannot be
controlled in the filed. IT is con
trolled by soaking the seed with
corrosive sublimate. IA ounce in
two gallons Of water Fhe seed
should be soaked in this solution for
sc minutes. rinsed in clean water
and spread out TO dry Soak the
bag that contains the seed also.

ST. JOSEPH COUNTY
SOILS NEED LIME
Both Sandy and Clay Ground
Is Beginning to Feel the
Need of Sweetening.
BY l.. &. BIRD.
Il. Joe County Agricultural Agent.

st. Joe County Agricultural Agent.
From tests made on soils of St
Joseph County, Indiana, il is shown
that most of our soils need lime.
The old sandy soils have been sour
for a long time and now the heavy
or clay soils in the south end of the
county are beginning TO feel the loss
of limestone through removal of
crops and teaching. The soils show
ing the most acid condition in the
county are those of Terra Coupe
prairie most Of which are extremely
sour
Lime in some form must be used
to correct this condition. Ground
limestone. burned lime, hydrated
lime air slaked lime, refuse lime and
mari are all used for correcting acid
ity of soils. Which Of these forms TO
use, depends upon the cost Of laying
down on the farm of a given amount
of calcium carbonate or its equiva-
lent in a reasonably fine condition.
According TO the findings of Purdue
University 100 yOunds of finely
ground limestone. SO pounds Of
freshly burned lime, "a pounds Of
hydrated lime and about 90 pounds
OF air slaked lime, have equal acid
neutralizing power. If finely ground
limestone can be delivered at the
nearest station at 81 per ton, then
fresh burned lime should be secured
at the station for 81. hydrated lime
for s.. and air slaked lime for about
$40 per ton. A good grade OF lime
stone should be fine enough so that
all will pass through 10 mesh
sieve. one-half through a 40 mash
sieve. and one-quarter through a Il 90
mesh sieve" The objection TO coarse
material such as screenings is that
II acts too slowly. II has been sug-
gested that the only place 10 sow
limestone was on plowed ground.
