RUST IN WHEAT'
Mr. Editor t While discussing the sub
ject of " wheat rust," a few day's since,
with a farmer, I advanced the statement
that I believed it to be a fimgus, or micro
scopic plant, growing upon, and deriving
its nourishment from the wheat stalk. In
order to test the correctness of my opinion,
I procured several stalks, and brought them
to town, for the purpose of examining them
microscopically. A glass, with a power of
20,000 araes, or about 160 diameters, showed
Very clearly that it Was a vegetable growth ;
in fact, as much a plant as the wheat upon
which it grows. In appearance, it very
tnuch resembles rows of Has seed : each e. II
being connected to another by a very slen
der filament, scarcely discernible. The col
oring matter, which is of a yellowish brown
color, and which gives the name to the par
asite, is contained in the center of the cells,
the margins being transparent. I write
these few observations, not that they are
new, or have not been made before ; but
more, because many of our farmers are not
acquainted with the exact nature of "rutt,"
though they are perfectly familiar with its
practical bearings on a wheat crop. The
fungus not only attaches itself to the out
aide of the stalk or blade, but penetrates
the outer, or cortical part, thus, not only
absorbing the nutriment of the plant for its
own use, but also interferring with the cir
culation necessary for the proper growth of
the plant. I think it probable, that in both
these ways it exerts its deleterious influence.
I will take pleasure in showing it, at my
office, to any ot our farmers, who may de
sire to examine it, and who will brine a
specimen with them. Yours respectfully.
F. Cacthorn.

A. O. U. W. On Monday evening W. S.
White, D. G. M. VV., organized and insti

charter members. We are glad to see this
order started in this city; having thoroughly
examined its workings we cheerfully recom

readers as are eligible to membership in the
order. Its principles are moral and its
teachings good, besides this, it is a cheap
and secure means of life insurance. The
lodges do all the business of insurance, and
thus the policy holder gets his benefit at
cost. The name ot the bulge at this place
is Friendship Lodge, No. 14. The follow
