stalks, sometimes in the soil and may
also live in manure for several
months. During the summer while
the corn is growing the smut germs
move about as dust in the winds and
find lodging on the corn. The fun
mel shaped pockets in the tops of
corn and the pockets at the base Of
the leaves collect dust and water
When the germs or spores lodge in
pockets containing moisture they be-
gin to grow and in short while
form the smut gall which we now see
in the corn fields.
Corn smut is not particular about
which part Of the plant to grow on.
When tho parasite attacks the ears
the grain usually is total loss.
When other parts Of the plants are
smutted, such as the leaves, tassels,
silks and nodes, the amount of loss
is hard to estimate. Often the plants
are broken over, sometimes by the ex-
cessive weight Of the amut gals and
sometimes by the weakening of parts
where the smut growth comes out.
In one way or another smut is caus-
ing heavy losses in some fields.
Growers have asked whether
silage made from these smutted ears
and stalks will injurc cattle. 1t is
very true that these smut gals have
an ugly appearance and some may
hesitate to feed them to a fine lot
of cattle. However, 80 far as is
known corn smut has never caused
any disease or i'll effects when fed to
cattle. In experiments conducted by
the experiment stations of South Da-
kota, Kansas, Michigan and the Unit
ed States Department Of Agriculture
cattle were fed corn smut in heavy
amounts. In no case was any injury
done to the cattle resulting from the
smut. ".
"The only remedy known to avoid
losses to the crop is to destroy the
nearby source Of the disease for the
next year. In fields where this means
Of control is impractical it Is neces-
sary to rotate crops. Smut resistant
corns have not been developed yet
hut plant breeders are having some
success in this direction. 1t is hoped
that in the near future we may have
developed variety Of corn which will
resist smut"

Range and Pasture
Condition Improved

Improved condition Of North Dakota
ranges and pastures is Indicated by
the September first range and live
stock report according to Paul G,
Newman, Federal Statistician for
North Dakota. Winter feed supply
is fair to poor. Cattle movement has
been heavy from sections where the
feed supply is short. A slightly i'm
proved condition Of cattle and calves
is also indicated, while sheep and
lambs are in fair shape, about the
same AS reported a month ago.
South Dakota hay and feed supplies
are ample in western sections where
cattle and sheep will move ut about
the usual time or later. In the east
rrn part of the range area hay and
feed supplies are short and the move
mcnt from these sections has been a
little earlier. Fall and winter range
prospects are good in the western
range area. but short in the eastern
art. There is II good demand Tor
ewes and eve lambs.
Montana cattle are in very good
shapc generally and markctings have
been heavy from the dry sections Of
the east central and south eastern
sections. Sheep and lambs are in
excellent condition with a strong de-
mand for eve lambs and considerable
lamb contracting. Late August rains
reduced the condition Of cured grass.
in the western two thirds 0f the state,
but supplied water for the dry Sec
tions Of eastern Montana and started
fall grass.
Wyoming range condition is very
good with prospects for winter range,
the large hay crop harvested is fully
ample for normal needs and in the
north east and west where the crop is
Iightest there is u large carry over
from last season. Cattle and calves
are in fine shape. Sales vary, some
are selling close while others are
holding as many as possible. Sheep
and lambs are heavy and in good
flesh.

FARM RBLIEF
SUBJECT J CT FOR OR
H. S. DEBATES /
Every High School in tht
State Urged to Have Pre-
liminary Contest

Grand Forks, n. d., Sept. lG tPl =
The agricultural legislation consider
ed mt recent sessions Of congress will
form the basis for the annual high
school debate which will open this
fall and eliminate next spring when
laurels will BE- awarded at the annual
May Fctc here, il was announced
today by officials Of the University
Extension division, which will conduct
the contest.
The question. as outlined in n cur
rent extension department bulletin,
is: Resolved: That congress should
promptly enact agricultural legis-
lation that would insure to the pro
ducers Of staple agricultural products
a price exceeding the world price by
the amount OF the tariff thereon, for
that portion used in the United States
and providing for losses on the ex-
portable surplus by means Of an
equalization fee against each product"
Selection Of this question, il is
pointed out, will enable high schoo!
candidates for forensic honors to
discuss a subject which is now Of
vital importance to the average indi-
vidual. while we are not all farm
crs our welfare rests upon the pros
perity Of the farming interests Of
this state" said the bulletin. Dur
ing the year congress will again dis
cuss farm relief measures. The ques-
tiOn will be in the minds Of our
people. 1t is therefore. a suitable
question for the high school debate.
On account Of the Importance Of the
question we are suggesting pre-
liminary debate in every high school
in the state" Material beaging on
both sides Of the question is being
prepared by extension officials.
Martin Hanson of the CandO high
school, cando. wrote the best essay
on good roads last year, the bulletin
announces. The next best essay was
the work Of Herman A. Asmus, Bin
ford. N. d. Copies Of the winning
essay have heen sent to the federal
highway education board at Washing
ton. The good roads essay contest
IS held annually.
Observance Of Constitution day on
September II is urged by the bulletin.
Schools not in session on that day
are asked TO observe il on Roosevelt
Day. October 81.

More Winter Rye to
Be SOwn This Year

An increase Of five per cent over
the 1926 harvested acreage Of win
ter rye il indicated by a report on
farmers intentions to sow winter
wheat aud rye, issued by Paul {.
Newman, federal agricultural stat
istician.
II these intentions are fully ear
ricd out the acreage sown to win
ter rye will be l,22i 900 acres com
pared with an estimate of 1903. 000
acres harvested this year and l.57l,-
900 harvested in 1925.
For the United States. intentions
to sow winter rye indicates AN in
crease Of ia per cent over this
years harvested acreage. or 4,229.-
900. The reported increases are
moderate in the more important rye
states: 8 per cent in North Dakota
and from 10 to IL per cent in Mich
igan, Wisconsin and Minnesota
Last years intentions to sow win
ter rye were about 3s per cent above
the actual acreage sown due prin-
eipally to adverse weather in the
fall Two years ago the intentions
IN these states were three per cent
above the actual area sown; three
below. United States acreage for
harvest in 1926 was 1901 900 acres
compared with 4.Os8.OOO acres in
1925 and the five-year average 1920
1924 Of 1860, 600
The early intentions may vary with
the weather. changes in price outlook
and may also be influenced by this
report. Factors favoring the sowing
Of an increased area this fall are
the improved price. heavy reduc-
tion in acreage for several years
past and the value of rye for fall
and winter pasture and as nurse
crop for seeding grass and clover.
Winter Wheat
United States intentions to SOW
winter wheat indicate an increase Of
Ia per cent greater than the acre
age sown last fall. The Indicated
nereage, if these intentions are car
ried out. will be 45.OG4 900 acres
compared with 39.54O,OOO acres last
fall and 39,95G,0OO acres in the fall
Of 1924.
Although the acreage reported as
intended to be sown is l4.4 per cent
graoter than the revised estimate of
the area actually sown last fall it
Is only about four per cent greater
than,th area which the farmers in
