Control Measures for
Flag Smut of Wheat
Several Ways Outlined for
Holding Disease in Check.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.I
Flag smut of wheat, a disease that
has been known by its presence
throughout the world for many years,
was first discovered in the United
States in some fields of wheat In I'LL
no!s In 1919. Although the disease has
not caused much loss in the infested
area. the n is gradually charging
and indications are that il may become
a serious disease unless adequate con
troll measures are put into effect. The
symptoms of flag smut snd suggested
control measures are discussed in De
partment Circular 273, just issued by
the United States Department of Agri.
culture.
Flag smut appears as black stripes
running lengthwise In the leaf and
Sieaths of the wheat plant which be-
come twisted and rarely produce a
head. Infected plants are usually more
or less dwarfed. The disease may be
held In check and reduced in quantity
by judicious quarantine measures, seed
treatment, crop rotation and other
sanitary measures, and by growing re-
sistant varieties of wheat through ex-
periments a number of varieties have
beer found which are highly resistant
to or possibly even immune from the
disease. 1t is possible that by the use
of such varieties. kept free from sus-
ceptible mixtures, the disease may be
entirely eradicated.
Those interested may secure a copy
of this circular free of charge, as long
as the supply lasts, from the Depart,
ment of Agriculture, Washington.

Seguin's many attractions and invited
the motorists to return as often as
they liked, asserting that Seguin would
welcome them with open heart on
every visit.
Following Congressman Wurzbach's
address of welcome, members Of the
caravan were called together and each
given a brick Of delicious Mistletoe ice
cream. with the compliments of the
Mistletoe Creameries Of San Antonio.
This surprise came at an opportune
time and the Mistletoe courtesy was
appreciated by everyone.
Distilled ice water was supplied in

Commerce, which courtesy also was
greatly appreciated by the motorists.

To. many Of the motorists who had

failed TO exclaim over the beautiful
scenery, both in Seguin and on the

and her excellent streets likewise were
the subject Of much favorable COM

pride was noted on every hand.
After the Mistletoe treat was over,
caravan members started for home, ar

praise for both The Light. Jack Neal
