Relationship of
Burberry and Rust
Is Argued in House

Whether barbcrry bushes cause
grain rust or whether the rust lust
happens was the main point at is
sue recently when the house argued
at length over a proposed $4,000 ap-
preparation to aid in the barberry
eradication movement.
The house appropriations commit
tee recommended against the appro-
priation on the ground that money
spent by the government in barber
ry eradication had not been used to
the best advantage.
William Watt, Cass county, said
that a federal man had appeared be-
fore the committee to explain the
work and that the committee felt it
was not being handled properly
Edwin Traynor, Ramsey county
who is known as successful farmer
led the successful fight to place the
bill on the calendar despite the ad.
verse committee report. He alleged
that the relation Of barberry bushes
to grain rust had been established
by scientific investigation in the
same manner that relationship be-
tween germs and various diseases
has been established.
Other farmer legislators opposed
the appropriation on the ground
that they had never seen any de.
struction effects resulting from bar.
berry bushes and demanded to know
why rust appeared some years and
was absent in others.

planned that conditions for thu
spread of rust are better some years
