TREAT SEED WHEAT
FOR SMUT CONTROL

| EllAOuEA 0hA wy A0NS
that the 1880 crop of wheat showed
the second general reduction in the
prevalence of sinking smut, OF
bunt, as it is frequently called
since the wheat crop of 1928
was harvested, there remains suf-
ficient amount of this disease
throughout the state that all far
mers who are planning to SOW
wheat this fall should give due con-
sideration to the cleaning and treat
ment of their seed, according to the
warning that is being sent by DR..
j. F. Adams, Plant Pathologist OF
the University of Delaware and the
State. Board of Agriculture, to all
the wheat growers in the state.
Unless the wheat this year was
absolutely free from smut, there IS
every good reason to treat the seed
in order to avoid the possibilities OF
a diseased crop in 1881, for it does
not pay to assume this risk when a
thorough treatment of the seed will
insure a clean crop of wheat next
year under normal conditions. A
survey of the smut prevalence in
the state this year at harvest time
showed that the average infection
in twenty-eight fields was 2.4% in
Sussex county, and only 0.5%o in
Kent county, as compared to but a
trace of infection in New Castle
county, while the maximum infec-
tiOn this year was found to be as
high as 1870 in those sections where
this seed treatment practice has not
been followed consistently by the
growers.
That this smut control campaign,
which was launched in this state
in 1925, has shown remarkable
progress in Kent county is indicat-
ed by the fact that only 1900, BUSH
els of seed wheat were treated that
year as compared to $4,000 bushels
treated in 1929, according to a sur
vey of the wheat acreage which has
been conducted each fall by County
Agent Russell E. Wilson who is
working in cooperation with Dr..
Adams on this program for. cleaner
and better wheat for Delaware.
liC III u
ing wheat have not been changed
since the smut control campaign
was started five years ago, in that
it is being advised that either of
the dust materials be used at the
rate of two ounces to each bushel
of seed. The dust disinfectants
which are on the market today in
clude copper carbonate, copper
carb," "sanoseed," and ''ceresan," :"
either one of which will give salts
factory control if the wheat is
treated in a revolving. drum or bar
rel where the dust may be thorough
ly distributed over the grains.
AS some farmers have eXper-
fenced drill trouble in sowing treat
ed wheat, especially in rainy wealth
er, it is we'll to avoid as much of
this difficulty as possible by not al
/ lowing the grain to remain in the
drill in the open for long periods of
time. If this condition should occur,
however, care should be taken to
stir the grain thoroughly before at
tempting to SOW it, and the gears
of the drill should also be loosened
by rocking the drill back and forth
several times. 1t is also important
that the drill bearings be oiled fire.
quently when busted wheat is be-
ing sown, and this practice should
be observed very closely especially
during wet weather, and at the end
of the seeding period the drill
should be cleaned thoroughly be-
fore being stored away for the win
ter.

SENECA Mill. TO

Kidnapping Stop
Textile Union in N. c..

GREENVILLE, N. c., April g.
The safety of Ann Burlack and Jack
Dorm, two organizers of the National
Textile Workers Industrial Union is
assured, after attack by a fascist
mob led by deputy sheriff at Ser
eca, N. c., who kidnapped Dorm and
harassed Ann Burlack when the two
were making an attempt to organize
the workers of the Seneca Mill at
that place.
The Seneca Mill, a cotton mill, re-
Gently installed the stretch-out sys-
tenn of speed-up, and the N.T.W.I.U.
arranged an open air meeting for
Thursday at $50 p. m.
Comrade Jack Dorm, while distrib-
uting leaflets in the mill village, was
threatened with arrest by a deputy
sheriff, but kept on with his work.
The deputy gathered up a gang Of
boss men in a car, seized Dorm and
took him to the backwoods about 10
miles from Seneca where they took
him out of the car on a bridge and
tried to drown him. He escaped,
however, and walked to Clemson,
hitch-hiked to Greenville, So miles
away, where other comrades Joined
him to return to Seneca where Com
rade Burlack was due to speak at
$50 that evening.
Arriving in Seneca at 6 o'clock,
Comrade Burlack was warned by two
boss men to get out of town, but she
stuck and when a crowd gathered
began speaking. The fascist gang in
five cars prevented her speaking by
their auto horns and yelling.
So she distributed N.TW.IU. liter
allure and promised to keep in touch
with the workers, who listened very
sympathetically.
The incident has aroused great
sentiment among the workers and
farmers of Seneca, in favor of the
N.T.W.I.U., and none of the boss
men and their violence will prevent
the workers of the Seneca Mill from
in the union.
