Treat Seed For
HGWOrTl1S
By GEORGE ROEMHILD
ASSt. State EntOmOI0giSt

fore planting is the most practice
method under Montana conditions f0
controlling wireworms. Two insecticide
can be recommended at the presen
time-lindane and aldrin. Lindant
should be used at the rate of 1 full
ounce of active ingredient per bushe
of seed and aldrin at the rate of full
ounces per bushel of seed.
Almost any insecticide, if left in con
tact with seed over long period OF
time, will reduce termination to a GER
tain extent. It is therefore advisable to
treat seed as near the planting date as
possible. Lindane-treated seed should be
planted within Is days of treating, but
aldrin-treated seed can be left stand
three to four months with little OF, no
effect on termination. Shriveled, frost
damaged, or other wise poor grain is
apparently affected more by insecti-
cides than plump. sound grain, so be
sure to use the latter.
How to Treat
Many elevators operate treating ma
chimes in conjunction with cleaning seed
prior to planting Both lindane and al
drin are compatible with the common
fungicides used for smut treatment, so
seed may be treated with both ma
terials at the; same time.
A slurry treatment is one using a
suspension of wettable powder in enough
water to make thin soupy liquid Com
mercial machines add this material to
the seed at constant rate and mix it
in so all seeds are coated.
Within the next year or two two COM
mercial mixes combining liquid fungi
cides and liquid insecticides will prob
ably be on the market. These prepara-
tons will be for use in machines which
use liquid seed treatments instead of
slurry treatments.
Dry seed treatment is about the only
method open to farmers who wish to
10 their own treating. For this purpose
he wettable powders appear to do the
,est job Dust containing 5 to 10 per
,ent active ingredient present too much
'ulk to be held on the seed coat, SO one
With IS per cent or more should be
Ised.
Various methods have been used to
treat seed on the farm. One
yay is to spread a layer of grain 2 to
inches thick on tarp or tight floor.
art of the insecticide is evenly dis
'ibuted over the top and another layer
{ grain is added. Again insecticide is
ut on this layer and the process is re-
eaded until the required amount of
rain is in the pile Turning the pile
vice with shovels will distribute the
secticide fairly well.
Another method employed is home
ade mixers which are constructed
ON steel drums. The drums have baf-
IS inside and turn on a shaft which
IS crank attached for power. A tight
ting lid is necessary to prevent spill
Ie. This sort of apparatus treats only
bushel or two at time and is there
re quite slow if large quantities of
ain need to be handled.

Sanitation Protects
Pigs From TGE

Transmissible gastrOenteritis is a
big name for disease that is most
serious when it strikes little pigs
Strict sanitation is the best protec-
ton against losses from TGE, as
the disease is more commonly
known
DR. Stewart H. Fowler of the Uni
versity of Maryland animal hus-
bandry department points out that
although cases of TGE in Maryland
swine herds have not been numer-
Gus, it is a good idea to be CON
Stantly on the alert for outbreaks
1t is highly contagious, and spreads
fast.
Early symptoms include securing
vomiting and rapid loss of weight
Pigs under 10 days of age have the
greatest number of fatalities from
TEE, often 100 percent. Pigs more
than 10 days old have a better
chance to survive an outbreak
Even fattening hogs and the breed
ing stock may be infected, but
usually recover quickly.
Even farmers who ordinarily
have a good swine sanitation pro-
gram should take extra precaution
when there are little pigs on the
farm, or when litters are expected"
Dr. Fowler says. "One precaution
is to isolate sows at narrowing time
Another is avoid adding new stock
to the herd as narrowing time APP
proaches.'
He also suggests keeping visitors
away from the swine herd and that
farmers do not visit neighbors
swine herds when pigs are young.

Foley Fans 10 in
Sunday Victory

Swanton defeated Terra Alta 4

decision over Bayard Sunday to
tie for first place in the Mt. Top
Baseball league.
Bobby Raines. former Westvaco
and Moorefield pitching ace, tossed
a three-hitter and struck out eleven
in the Swanton victory. 1t was
Raines' second win in as many
starts.
Howard Sweitzer's triple with
one aboard in the It'll inning broke
the 2-2 deadlock and netted the run
that decided the contest. One of
the three safeties yielded by Raines
was a home run by Bolyard.
Bob Fraley, Terra Alta twirler,
gave up five hits and famed seven.
John Foley, Loeb Lynn's tall right
handler, limited Bayard to five
singles and famed l6 to post his
second win of the campaign. Elmer
Green Bayard relief pitcher, who
supplanted Fulk in the third inning,
struck out Ii Loeb Lynn batters.

has an investment exceeding S15,-
O00O0,00O in mmercial-industrial
facilities ranging from shoe re-
pair shops to clothing factories,
from cement mixing plants to saw
mills, from chain stores to tree and
garden nurseries"
There is the further assertion
that if the commissions recon-
mendations are followed the budget
can be Immediately balanced with
out affecting any vital government
tai activity or impairing the ma
tional security. Coming from Mr.
Hoover, certainly not given to
eXaggeration Cand high above any
suspicion of political motive(, also
supported by remarkable group
of men on the commission and its
task forces, who, without compen-
sation, have for many months given
unselfishly of their time and labor,
these statements cannot be lightly
pushed aside. They have been as
sailed as politically inspired, which
makes no sense whatever. There
may be certain details open to hon
est attack and certainly no one eX-
poets such sweeping reforms in the
governing machinery to go through
Congress without due consideration
and debate
What one has right to expect is
that Congress would without too
much delay indorse these reforms in
principle, enact as many as possible
at this session and hold the material
it now has available for govern
mental improvement at sessions in
the future no matter what party is
in control What is disturbing is the
inertia of the Administration to-
ward these exceedingly valuable
reports. If any overt step to further
their enactment has come from the
White House in recent months, it
cannot now be recalled.
This is the more strange because
these reports are in accord with the
Presidents personal desire to bal
ance the budget, to cut out waste
and promote efficiency. They also
are in accord with his political and
personal promises. 1t is, of course,
true that he has many other grave
national and international problems
with which to deal. But there are

LipaSe Can Cause
Rancid Milk Flavor

Dairy farmers can eliminate one
source of off flavor in milk by linn
iting the activities of an engine
called lipase
DR.. Mark Kenney, chemist in the
University Of Maryland dairy de-
partment, explains that lipase
breaks down butterfat. Free bu-
lyric acid is produced in the break
down. and milk containing free bu-
lyric acid has a rancid flavor. The
acid can also produce rancid
flavor in butter churned from raw
cream, unless lipase activity is con
trolled
"The activity of lipase is slowed
down by low temperatures" Dr.
Kenney says. so if milk is cooled
quickly to a temperature of about
40 degrees F. and held there, it
shouldn't have a chance to develop
the typical rancid flavor caused by
free butyric acid However, the en-
lyme reacts quickly if the tcmpera-

few, if any, more important than
those raised by the Hoover reports
There can be no doubt that Mr.
Eisenhower at heart is in favor of
these reforms and very little doubt
that soon or late he will make that
clear. Nevertheless, it would be in
the national interest if he made it
clear emphatically, unequivocally-
and soon He owes this to his Ad-
ministration, to the country and to
himself Delay in giving the Hoover
Commission his full support en-
courages the inevitable political
sniping and blocking tactics that
have so often prevented advance
along these lines.

ture of the milk rises to above so
degrees f. and goes to work break
ing down butterfat This is one rea-
son why farm holding tank manu-
facturers caution farmers about adj
ding large amounts of warm milk
to milk that has already been
cooled"
He adds that agitation also causes
lipase to become highly active.
There is possibility of a rancid
taste being "agitated" into milk if
it runs through a succession of
pumps, elbows and tee-joints in

pipe lines and holding tanks, espe-
cially if the cooling system is not
efficient. Most farmers probably
won't have this trouble" the dairy
chemist says, but it's still good
idea to build pipe lines with as
few joints and turns as possible,
and to use no more pumps than
are necessary in handling the
milk"
Pasteurizations stops lipase ac-
tivity, but it does not remove the
off flavor that results from activity
before pasteurization.
