Method of TreatingSeed Grain
Before The Sowing Is .
Given.
CLEAN THE GRAIN WELL
Agricultural KifiertM at (). A. C. Ktig.
Kent Wnya or IVcpurftig; Seeil
Which They Ilwllero
To llo the Ik'M.
Out of ten samples of wheat that
havo been brought to the office 1
the lust month live have contained
smut balls. This would Indicate that
smut 1b unite prevalent In the conn
ty, and even when there are no smu
balls present It Is not to be assumed
that the seed Is free from infection as
tho spores are microscopic, and can
not be seen with the naked eye. All
wheat, oats and barley Should be
treated bofore sowing. The follow
ing are the best methods of treatin
as recommended by Prof. Barss, of
the Oregon Agricultural College.
Formaldehyde Treating Solution
Formaldehyde (formalin) full
strength (about 37 per cent) 1 pin
water. 4 0 gallons.
Tank or ltarrcl Treatment.
Kun grain through fanning mill to
remove smut balls, shrunken grain
etc. Partly nil tank or barrel with
solution and put in grain.
Kor Wheat,
If the seed is not known to be per
fectly free irom siMiti balls pou
the wheat in loose, stir with hoe or
some other implement to bring th
smut balls to the surface, skim off.
If the seed la known to be perfectly
iree from Binut balls It may bo treat
ed In partially filled' sacks; soak for
30 minutes, remove, drain and plan
tho Banio day, or waah with pure
water and ppread out to dry.
Kor Ont.
Put oata In gunny sack and soak
for 20 minutes In the solution. Take
out, drain and plant nt once. If grain
Is to be kept for a later date, wash
with pure water and dry thoroughly,
Kor Iturlfy.
Barley Is more sensitive lo the ac
tion of lormnldehyde than wheat or
oats. Use samo method as for oata
but use the weaker solution, 1 pint o
formadohydo to 40 or 60 gallons of
water, and soak for ten minutes
only. It should then be washed with
pure water, drained, and If it Is no
seeded shortly Bhould be thoroughly
uricd.
Sprinkling Method.
Run grain through tho fanning
mill. Spread grain out on clean floor
or tarpaulin a fow InchcB thick
Sprinkle with tho 1 pint to 4 0 gallon
solution of formaldehyde. Shovel or
hoe tho grain over until every kernel
is wot, then shovel up Into a pile and
cover with sacks or tanpaulln pre
viously moistened with tho solution.
Leave for 2 hours or more. Uncover
Hproadi out until dry enough to run
through drill, and plant at once, or If
grain la not to be seeded immedi
ately dry thoroughly bofore storing
away.
Tho sprinkling method should not
be used for whent if It has not been
cleaned of smut balls, as this method
does not kill the spores contained In
unbroken balls and when run through
tno drill tho smut balls aro broken
nnd tho living smut spores are then
Bwn on the seed. Such grain should
inoroiore Do treated- loose in the open
tank nnd smut halls allowed to float
on tlio lop of. the solution where
they can bo removed by skimming.
Taut ion.
l)o not soak seed longer than
recommended. Spread out to dry at
once, ami novor allow treated grain
to stand nway In sacks nnv length
or time witn the grain wet or moist
ened.
n some eases of using formnlde
hydo method of treatment a consid
erable loss in germination of seed
or failure to make a good standi of
grain Is very often reported. There
fore It would he well after treating
grain, it posslhlc. to make a germi
nation test to see Just what proper-
non oi grain will germinate and
men make your seeding areordlngl
