TREATMENT OF SEED WHEAT FOR !SMUT CONTROL Jaron the number of .Inquiries re- ceived at the ofliicc of the 'Huron County Branch of the 'Ontario De- partment of 'Agriculture it would ap- pear that many 'farmers are unable to tell the difference between the 'Stink- ing 'Smut or 'Bunt 01 W'Iieat and .the Loose ISnnu:t of ea t. T'he !Stinking 5mCi! ca. 'mot be detected' in the wheal ;fields until the heads begin: i'o fill, The Some of the throng of bowlers engaged in the Tourney last Wednesday on the greens of the Seaforth Lawn 'Bowling Club, Among those in the foreground are Dr. Bechely and E. H. Close, of the winning rink. smutted head's are darker green' and .rate of 2 to 3 ounces per bu'shel.An remain green longer than the healthy ones; later the heads ,stand up stiff and erect and the Chaff is somewhat 'bleached. T'he grains only are direct- ly affected', being short, plump, light in weight, somewhat discoloured 'and trilled with a brownish 'black oily pow- der wh'i'ch has an odour like decaying !fish, These "smut balls" are broken in. the process 01 fh'i'eshing and even a small percentage of this smut will impart a dis'agreea'ble odau.r to tine wheat, Sti'n'king Smart CAN be prev- ented by treating the seed with Oop- p.er 'Carbonate Dust or with Formalin, T'h'e Loose ISnnut of Wheat is more con -mots than the average farmer realizes due to the 'fact that most of this smut has 'blown away long be- fore harvest time. !Loose Smut is seen in the field just as' soon as the ceo.p begins to heat! out, 'It destroys both the grain and the chaff, changing them to black powder. The entire head thus becomes a mass of black smut, 'These saint masses are broken up and blown away by the wind, the only remaining evidence at harvest time being the naked central axis of the meas!'. !Loose Smut of 'Wheat CANNOT be prevented by treating with Copper Carbonate Dust or SFor- annli'n, The most practical method is to secure seed ft -ori a 'field where loose Smut was not present as such seed will produce a crop free from this smut. The only effective seed treatment is the !Hot \Vater Treat- ment which, un fortunately, cannot be said to be a practical treatment for the average 'farmer as it is a slow tedious process, necessitating certain equipment and requiring extreme caution regarding procedure and tem- perature, em- perad'ure, 1'ornl.alin Treatment for Stinking !Smut.—'Chis method may used for the control of :Sti'nkin'g Smut in Wheat but is not as safe of as satis- factory as the Copper Carbonate Dust treatment. In using the formalin treatment some farmers have exper- ienced injury to the1 , J bin much of this injury is done to care- lessness in treatment The correct mixture is one pint of formalin mix- ed with 41) gallon's of water and this amount is sufficient to treat 60 bush- els of grain', Each farmer knows. the num'b'er of bushels of wheat he is go- ingtosow,therefore,its' is a simple p platter to determine the correct amounts of formalin and water to use, The 'formalin solution is applied with a sprinkling can and the grain should be shovelled several times in order to thoroughly moisten each grain. The treated pile of grain should be covered with bags or burlap for three or four 'hours. Leaving it cov- ered much longer than this will re- sult in injury. !The grain should' then be spread out thinly to dry and it is advisable to shovel it over 3 or 4 Ones to hasten drying, Sow t'he seed as soon after treatment as possible. 'The 'Copper Carbonate Dust Treat- ment for 'Stinking Smut.—:This treat- ment is the safest and most satisfac- tory for controlling Stinking 'Smut of Wheat and is the only treatment which can be used for H'ulles's Oats. This dust should. be applied at the old barrel churn is ideal for treating the grain or some types of cement mixers may be used, GI either is not available, a home-nrad'e mixing' mach- ine may be made from an ordinary barrel. (Rotating the machine for 2 or 3 minutes will result in every grain receiving a fine coating of the dust. Advantages of this method are as follows, '(111 no injury to germination, (12) seed may be treated when con- venient and stored without injury, 0) it is rapid, 20 bu'shels may be treated, in less than half an hour. Dns - 'advantages are as fdllews, (11') treated grain cannot he used for feed or mill- ing purposes, 1(2) treated' seed must be kept dry and should not be allow' ed to stand in the seed drill, (3) any dust that collects in the drill should be cleaned out as it may become cak- ed and injure the drill. 'If the drill has not !been used' for several hours it is advisable to rock the wheels be- fore starting to loosen the grain and gearing, tFtirmers should lie able to pur- chase Copper Sulphate Dust from the local druggist who, it he 'doesn't stock it, will be able to get it. ;Some hard- ware stores may also have it on hand.
