Losses From Smut,
Fully $700,000.00 has ,been lost to
Ontario 'farmers owing to tlie ,pres-
euce of shout in last, season's No. 2
winter wheat. This estimate has 'been
arrived at after inspection of the sam-
ples of grain collected from all :parts
of the Province 'fou' use in setting the
Standards for Commercial Grades o
Grain for 'the last season, when it wa
shown that.a large 'percentage 'al the
grain would grade below" the Stan-
dard Grades,
Record of 'official inspections in the
Eastern 'Divisi'on indicated that ove
thirty per centof the grain bad 'bee

excluded from the standard grades
while it was expected the percentage
of tlie total crop would 'be larger
The estimate was that the presence
of smut would mean a decreased re
turn to the farmers of the Province
of from five cents to fifteen cents a
bushel below the normal price of No
2 winter wheat, or a total loss a,,.

Ontario Agri'eultus'sl 1Collegge, .'whit's

this line, recently issued a statement,
"There are two kinds of wheat

•nion•stratcd that copper carbonate
dust is the most satisfactory seed dis-
infectant for. the 'prevention . of stink-
ing• smut or bunt of wheat.

then revolve the lbarrcl or churn until
the dust is thoroughly, mixed with
the grain. After 'is trea'tmeut the
grain may be bagged' and so'wu at
once. This method of applying the
dust dnvolves nint1111 time ,and labor if
large quantities -of grain are treated.
'Machines are now on the .market,
however, for applying dust rapidly to
large quantities of :seed,
Stinking smut or burnt can easy be
prevented b3' sprinkling with a, dilut-
ed formalin, solution. The directions
"for- 'sprinkling with a •formalin sohi'-
tion are as •follows; - -
"M2ix otte pint of formalin with.
forty gallons ,of water. Place the
grain to be treated in a• heap on. a
clean floor. Sprinkle the formalin sol-
ution over the grain. then shovel the
grain into another pile so ,as to !nix
it thoroughly; then sprinkle and silo.
vel again. Repeat this operation until
every grain is moistened by the solu-
tion. Just enough of the solution
should 'be applied. to 'thoron„iily wet,
every grain, but not enough to make
the grain wet and sloppy. Its treat-
ing small quantities use proportional
unionists of the forihalin solution. Af-
ter the grain has ` i eett thoroughly
sprinkled, cover the pile with bags or
sacking that 'have been sprinkled or
soaked in a formalin solution and
leave for -three or foto" hours. At the
end of this time spread the grail: out
thinly to dry. Shovel it over three or
foie" times to hasten the drying. For-
ty 'gallons of the •formalea solntion- is
eulticient to spr'inkl'e between fifty
and sixty bushels of grain.
"The objection 'to treating with
formalin solution is that there is great
danger of injuring the vitality of the
seed. It is not wise to use formalin
solution stt +ai g., n •+i than 1
an. 1 pint. to 40
gallons, and cart must be taken not
to apply too much of it to the grant.
To secure satisfactory results, just
enough of the •formalin solution
should be applied to .moisten every
grain, but not enough •to make it wet
and soppy.
Loose smut of whefi cannot be
prevented by treating the' seedwith
binestnne or copper carbonate dust.
The easiest way of avoiding lona from
this snort is to secure seed 'front a.
field or district' wwhere loose smut is to secure seed free 4fro:n infection, it
