Even today there is a giant quarter

CHEMICAL STOPS
SMUT ON WHEAT

Complete control of sinking smut
in spring wheat can be accom-
pliShed by treating the seed before
planting with either a copper COM
pound such as copper carbonate
or an organic mercury compound
known as new improved ceresan,
according to III. E. Morris, plant
cultural Experiment station.
The cost of either treatment, he
said, is less than three cents a bushel,
including labor.
Treatment of seed by the busting
method is simple and requires only
a barrel mounted on an axle and
placed between two standards. The
barrel should have a tight fitting lid
and the entire machine can be con-
structed very easily at home.
Morris warn farmers against at
tempting to dust wheat in a wagon
box or a granary floor. Such a system,
he says, wastes material and the kerr
nels are incompletely covered with
the chemical.
The dust treatment has two dis
tinct advantages owe the old type of
wet treatment. busting is more effect
i've and can be done several weeks be-
fore planting thereby distributing the
labor and resulting less rush during
the busy planting season. Neither the
copper carbonate nor the new improved
ceresan affect the termination of the
seed.
In using copper carbonate, the drill
should not be started without first
making sure that it is not frozen"
Morris cautioned. Copper carbonate
draws moisture from the air, causing
the kernels to stick together and clog
freeze" the drill. This may result
in damage to the gears if precautions
are not taken.

ditions. Two months ago wheat grow
ers were depressed and predicted less
than half a crop of winter wheat, be-
cause of the drouth that existed at
the time Of planting, but much to
their surprise, the recent rains and
snowfall brought the wheat out in
fine condition and very little If any
will have to be reseeded.
