The attendance tray not so largo ea might have boon ex- pected, as only about thirty of the farm- ers in the vicinity put in an appearenee at the hall. Jarnes Diokeon, of Elena, was called to the obaie•, and R. Ferguson was appointed secretary. Prof. Panton, of the Guelph Agricultural College, being present, gave an interesting and lestruct- ive address on "Rust and smut in wheat," and illustrated hie remarks with draw - h' leo. • it 1 1H hart In intiod o1 0 fags and a t e g titre, the Professor spoke of the great ml vantages of b'arnlor0' Institutes, and even when properly properecl papers were not read, a great deal of useful in- formation would be gained by the inter. change of ideas or the relation of the ex- perience of each member. IIo then de. scribed the difforor'oe between flowering end flowerless plants, and the nature of fungi, to which plass rural and smut both belong. fie said experience bad shown that fungi always attack plants that 0.10 not constitutionally strong and vigorous, or when they are over stimulated in their growth. It was also found that sudden oliange he the oliinato promote the devel- opment and growth of fungi plants. Low lying dielriats aro liable to produce rust and poorly drained lands. It had also been noticed thea rust on wheat was al- ways worse in the vicinity of the barberry bush, and hence it was not advisable to have hedges of that shrub. The beet Juane to prevent rust was to avoid sow. ing on ill.drained land, and to sow both thick and early. Mr. Adams wanted to know if salt was a preventive of rust, James Dickson had tried salt on both 20.00 spring and fall wheat, and he had noticed that on the salted land the young blades 18.00 came tip several days sooner than on the 1315,47 ridges be had not stilted. He bad also 84.10 found that salt keeps ripe wheat bettor in the head, and hence it is loss liable to 327.40 loss from shelling. John Page had tried washing seed wheat badly affected with smut and had a first rate crop, while one of his neighbors, who had sowed smutty wheat without washing, had hardly any crop at a11. Profoesor Parton said the best way to clean wheat for eeed in which there waft smut, was to wash it with a solution of sulphate of copper. William Strew wanted to know what was consid- ered a proper quantity of salt for land. 1.00 ! Ile Lad tried 150 pounds to the aur, but could not Hay it had been env 110101.11. James Dickson never used less than 20(1 pounds to the acre. Win. Diokoon thoughtthat salt was of morn benefit some years than othere, and thought it produced its beet results in spring wheat, especially hi drained hand. Jacob Bray had need salt in small gtlantit100 but had not thoroughly tested its merits. Be had, however, noticed some beneficial 1.001(10 from it of spring wheat.
