Control Of Ergot.
In Grain, Grass
By NJ. M. AFANASIEY, Botapist
Montana Experiment Station

montana EXPERIMENT otHtz0N
ERGoT is A FUNGUS disease Of
wheat, oats, barley, rye and many
grasses. 1t is usually most severe on
rye, although certain varieties of
barley and wheat can also become
heavily infected. Bronze and wheat
grass and some other grasses can
also become seriously infected with
ergot.
Ergot disease decreases the yield
of grain, but its main Importance
lies in the poisoning effect on live
stock because ergot grains contain
a very poisonous alkaloid. Ergotism
as known now is principally a dis
ease Of cattle although horses, pigs,
sheep and also chickens can become
affected.
The feeding of ergotized hay or
grain may have the following eff
fects on the animals:
1. Impairing the general health of
animals when ergot is consumed in
very small quantities.
2. Producing abortion in cows and
mares.
8. Producing spasmodic or gan

women of the countryside learn all
about their glorious opportunities.
It's commencement speech time.
You know how it goes. The mem
bers of the graduation class sit up
on the platform, the boys feeling stiff
and uncomfortable in their new
clothes and the girls feeling glorious
and glamorous in theirs, and the
speaker turns it on-how the future
is theirs &. how this completion Of
their nigh school years is a great
achievement, but it is not the end
only the beginning and great OPP
portunIty lies before them. Of course
it is true that our land frontiers are
gone. No longer can we say, Ego
west, young man, and take your gun,
your ak and your pillow and hew out
an empire for yourself" But there
are still frontiers, the frontiers Of
science and service. the frontiers of
the mind and so on and so on
A Great Speech
It's a great speech. 1t has to be;
it's been given every year with minor
variations for generations. It has
stood the test of time because it is
eterna1ly true. Opportunity does lie
ahead.
And who bemoans the fact that the
land frontiers are gone? How ex-
cited would any young man get to-
day If he were told that the same
opportunity lies before him that his
grandfather had so years ago? All
he'd have to do is move 1000 miles
from home, stake himself out claim
and starve on it for the next 20 years.
No, the modern young man has
much better opportunity than that,
but it is still hard to take. Whereas
when grandpa started out he at least
had the lure of adventure and of the
unknown-if he had known, he
probably wouldn't have let himself
in for 1.-THE modern young man
will probably have to stay put, and
face the known facts at home. His
opportunity will lie in doing better
where he is than his father or his
grandfather did before him.
Fifty years ago on the day after
graduation, the father could say,
well, son, hear there's lots Of
good land out Montana way to be
had for the taking. Better go get
yourself some. Goodbye"
20 Years Ago
Twenty years ago, on the day after
graduation the father could say,
well, son, now that you're ready to
get to work, what do you say we buy
or rent that section or two just north
of us and branch out little The
insurance company or the bank that
took it over when the homesteaders
gave up will probably be glad to sell
it pretty cheap, and with the two Of
us working and our new tractor, we
ought to be able to handle it pretty
easy"
And this year after graduation, the
father can say, well, son, I'd Away.
kind OF planned on picking up an
other section or two for us to operate
when you finished school, but tn.
way land prices are now I'm afraid
it's out of the question. We'd hav,
a hard time making the crops pay u

could pay for it. Guess you'd bette

Pointing out that the Ohio State
Fair has recognized the impor-
tance of youth cooperative activi-
ties since 1929, D. Robert Jones,
Delaware County farmer who is
assistant fair manager in charge
of the Junior Fair division, calls
for joining of hands in making
the 1851 State Fair the banner
occasion of its long public service.
"Here are the meeting grounds
of those who proudly DISPLAY
the fruits of farm, factory and
cooperative endeavor and those
who VIEW with admiration, en-
lightenment and PRIDE" he says.
1T is fitting that OH. ould be
the pioneer in opening It's State
Fair to competitions and activities
that appeal to YOUTH" Jones adds.
"It was in Ashley, Delaware
County, in 1924 that the worlds
first agricultural exhibit for young
people was held"

MINISTER'S


From the beginning of Pres
byterianism in Key West, fol
lowing the initial evangelistiC
mission of the Rev. j. w. Rose
borough in 1909, the pugnacious
Presbyterian spirit of determined
laymen kept alive the little con-
gregation. The normal and natur-
al objective is to have and main
tain regular church. This is
difficult without pastor. The To-
cation of Key West, separated as
it was SO many years from the
mainland by water, later connect
ed by railroad and ferry, and fin
ally by the splendid highway and
bridges, has determined the fluc-
tuations and activity of the
church. Those conditions have also
influenced the inclination of min
listers who were reluctant to be
too far separated from good
schools and libraries. This &C
counts for the sporadic activity
of the Presbyterian church.
The church has had TO be salts
fled with transient ministers much
of the time. Following the first
evangelistic meeting the little
flock sought desperately for a
pastor. During the first year the
Rev. r. w. Hines and later Rev.
B. II. Dupuy passed this way and
conducted services in the old
Masonic Temple. In April of 1910
the Session requested Mr.. D. f.
MILESTONE, ito urge upon the
Presbytery the Importance of hav-
ing a minister at an early date"
However no pastor could be
persuaded to accept the call. Again
the next year in.sMarch. l9l ] the
Session fiirectedssMr. Whetstone,
the clerk, ito correspond with the
seminaries in an effort TO find a
pastor" During that year the Rev
erends w. p. Chalmers and w. B.
Wilkie passed this way and con-
Quoted services for the congrega-
ton. BY March 1912 they had sue
ceeded in persuading the Rev.
II. ii. Newman to accept the call.
He remained with the church UNI
til the 18th Of July when he re-
signed.
The little congregation drlfted
along without SECULAR services
through 1913 conducting Bible
School and meeting for worship
services whenever transient
minister passed this way, DR..
Homer Mcmillan of the Home
Mission Board came to them In
December of that year and prom
ised 10 find for them pastor II
at all possible. A DR.. Morris visit
ed the congregation the following
March ana on June 18th the Rev.
John McWiliiaiSs accepted the
pastorate. He remained only about
nine months when he resigned IN
March 1915.
For a short time in 1916 the
Rev. X. S. Rogers supplied the
pulpit. From that time on for the
next seven years the church had
no pastor. In fact the members
called representative of the
Board OF Home Missions to con-
slider disseminating the work in
1918. The Rev. j. r. Winnard OF
the Home Mission Board advised
that they continue the work. 1t
wasn't until 1923 then, that Or.
r. peyton Walton of the Home
Mission Board arrived with the
Rev. w. ]. Garrison and after a
few services were able TO revive
interest In the church. The follow
ing year the Rev. P, w. Sinks ac-
cepted the pastorate and served
for about year. From that time
e,~,,x,ay.4 tha church has had
