Today this is no longer true In certain districts, particularly this one, where the same crop has been and is still being grown on the same. land year and year in many cages with short rotations or none at all disease tends to accumulate. Such is the case with corn, Disease in this crop has increased so gradually ,and symptoms of certain of the diseases of corn are so inconspicuous and con- fusing, such as for instance the poor germination and stands resulting from root rots` and seedling blights, the lack of unformity of height of plants, and retarded growth which are the only above -ground symptoms of root rot of corn, that many corn growers either do not or will not re- cognize the presence of these dis- Ieases in their crop. The damcaused by many. fungous . diseasesage of corn may be materially reduced by seed treatment (with organic mercury dusts. In this category may be mentioned seeding diseases cs,used by several fungi, sail- borne organisnyst which either des- troy the young plant before em- lergence from the ground or invade the root tissues and weaken the plant also 'stalk and ear rot fungi, the latter of which are very common on 'seed used for planting, Under era deal conditions (treatment of corn seed with organic mercury dust may save the necessity of replanting.

Treatment of Seed Corn Before Planting (Experimental Farms News) The time for planting seed corn is now approaching and the corn grower would be wise to consider certain facts now known concerning the control of disease in this crap, corn districts to the south it has been found that habrid seed -benefits from seed treatment just as much as open pollinated seed. In these same districts corn seed treatment with pr- ank mercury dust increased yields' an average of 3.35 bushels per acre. Only a small number of ears of cern are required to pay for this increase.
