Experts, In Letters, Declare - Pro

Section
.' Soon after the beginning of flax
harvest a few weeks ago. it was
found that some of the fields, es
pecially in, the Aumsville and
Turner districts, were 1 infected,
ither in spots or throughout
whole fields, with the flax rust.
There was naturally some alarm
over the situation' .
1 Especially on account., of the ,
fact that the first few hundred .
tons of flax received had been put
Into the warehouses, at the state,
flax plant without much regard to
keeping them separated by farms .
or districts, and there was no one
who could be certain whether or
pot the rust might or might not
be carried in the seed.
1 - Later,, there was more care In
keeping the flax from different,
farms, and sections separated in
Storing It.
! There will -be. a good deal ot re-.
lief. in. various sections, when It is
Shown,, as is authoritatively shown -below,
that the fust is NOT CAR

It was at first feared that the
appearance :Of the rust might ne
cessitate the bringing in of a lot
of seed from other countries, to'
play safe with the 192.7 flax crop,

will not be necessary." '
