Select Exhibits Now.

It's time to begin work on a
grain exhibit for the county and
other fairs, declares E. d. Holden
of the Wisconsin College of Agri-
culture.
The aim in showing sheaves and
bundles of any crop is to display
few of the best plants so that
they will bring out, to best adj
vantage, the purpose for which
the grain is grown. Taking the
plants at the right time, curing,
fitting, and binding them to-
gether in an attractive way, all
help make success in the show
room.
Several good bundles Of grain
selected during harvest and cured
where they will not be exposed to
rain or dew is the usual way of
preparing such samples. A better
way, according to Holden, is to
cut a quantity Of the best plants
having large ripe heads and clean
bright straw, with sickle and
cure it carefully. Sunlight helps
bleach the stems and improves the
appearance.
Before the stems are dry, all
the leaves should be ripped off
and the sample bound together in
neat bundles, three or more inches
in diameter. All sheaves need to
be stored hanging head down to
preserve their shape and compact
ness.
"Soybeans and field peas for hay
sheet samples should be cut when
we'll podded but before the seed
is mature and while the leaves
are still green" says Holden.
Curing in a rather dark room or
shady place preserves the color
Care is needed to prevent the
leaves SCATTERING. Bundles Of these
crops are made six or more inches
in diameter at the center.

For several years lettuce growers
in Imperial Valley have noticed
plants in their fields which become
sickly yellow in color, stop growing
and fail to head. The leaves of
affected plants gradually turn brown
and dry up, beginning at the bot
tom. Plants become diseased from
the time they have five or six
leaves right up TO fully mature
heads. Headed or partly headed
plants on becoming diseased usual
ly show dark brown dead strcaks or
blotches in the leaves, Of the heads.
All diseased plants are entirely
uselcss, since the small plants never
make heads, and the plants, which
become diseased after headed, arc
not marketable on account Of the
dead brown streaks in the heads.
There may be here and there one
or q few diseased plants in n field
with healthy plants all around, or
there may be spots from Il few fee;
to several rods in diameter in which
all or large percentage of the
plants are diseased. Wholefields may
have half or more Of the plants dis
eased and useless.
This threatening disease Of let
tuee is being investigated by /. G.
Jaeger, plant pathologist Of the
4. 8. department Of agriculture
with the active cooperation of r
l.. Garthwaite, Imperial County
farm advisor, ard l.. G. Goar, super
intendent Of the University Of Cal
ifornia Imperial Valley experiment
station st Meloland.
Originates in Soil
Considerable information has been
obtained although the exact cause
has not yet been determined. The
disease originates in the soil. The
investigations so far indicate that
the disease Is caused by some sort
of minute microscopic living things,
popularity called germs. Nor have
the investigations shown any con
nectton between the disease aud al
kali soils.
The beat name for this disease
seems to be brown blight, since II
all Its several forms or stages there
are brown, dead streaks, blotches
or areas in the leaves. The ship
ping point inspectors, and the hor
ticultural commissioner have alrea
dy decided on the name brown
