Wet Method
Smut Control
Is Popular
Although dry methods give just
as effective control, use of the
newer wet. so-called slurry treat
ment, to prevent wheat smut is
gaining popularity throughout
Oregon's wheat belt, reports Rex
Warren, state college extension
Number of machines in use has
Increased greatly wjimn me pasi
year or so, the specialist adds. To
make use of Ceresan M by the wet,
slurry method, required a specially
built machine designed to weigh
accurately and measure wheat
seed as well as the amount of
treating material used.
Big advantage the wet method
has over other treating methods
using Ceresan products is the fact
tint obnoxious dust and fumes are
eliminated. With the slurry meth
od, seed wheat must still be allow
ed to set 24 hours between treat
ing and planting. Warren empha
fci.es .' This waiting period allows
full utilization of gas that is form
ed by Ceresan M. It kills smut
spores.
Although water is used in the
slurry method. Warren states the
moisture content of seed wheat is
increased less than one percent by
proper use of this treatment.
New Improved Ceresan. copper
carbonate or basic copper are all
recommended smut control treat
ments. With New Improved Cer
esan, dust and fumes are object
ionable. Copper carbonate and
baio copper, while effective, de
pend entirely upon diiect contact
With the smut spores. Their use
li ineffective when mixing is not
thorough, the specialist points out.
A tutad many warehouses as well
a commercial seed treaters have
now installed the slurry method.
Poor treatment which resulted
from short-cuts or cutting down on
the amount of offensive material
has been virtually eliminated
through use of the automatic slur
ry treateis.
Slurry treating seed as it comes
from the field will not effect
gei initiation if the grain is planted
within six weeks. Warren points
out. Hold-over Ceresan treated
s?et is planted 20 perc ent heavier,
the specialist advises.

Brucellosis
11
Vaccine
Appears
A new kind of vaccine appear
to be "99 per cent effective" in
checking the losses caused by
brucellosis, one of today's most
erious diseases of cattle.
This conclusion, drawn from a
large-vcale experiment involving
the vaccination of hundreds of
Michigan cows, was reported at
the national convention of the
American Veterinary Medical as
sociation, held at Detroit, Mich.,
recently.
The i-eport was submitted by Dr.
I. Forest Hu'd3le?on, research vet
erinarian in the department of
bacteriology and public health at
Michigan State college. East Lan
sing. In the first ftafe of the experi
ments, "Brucella M" vaccine was
administered to 772 "clean rows"
in 22 private herds containing
more than 100 infected animals
from which the disease might be
contracted. Only 23 vaccinated
cows became infected in the ensu
ing 12 to 14 months.
Then, to further check the value
of "Brucella M," smaller numbers
of clean cows in four herds were
vaccinated and other clean cows
In the same herds were left un
vaccinated to serve as "controls."
Tests a year later showed only one
vaccinated animal was infected,
while many of the unprotected
"controls" had contracted the dis
ease. "Thus far," Dr. Huddleson said,
"from personal investigations, and
from inquiries among veterinar
ians and farmers, we have obtain
ed no evidence of any harmful ef
fects from the use of 'M' vaccine
Data now being accumulated in
dicate the spread of brucellosis
has been checked in 89 per cent of
herd where all non-infected ani-
mali were vaccinated."
Big Milk Production
I)orn't Always Pay
High producing cows obtained
t too great a cost in labor and
ur Chased feeds will not insure
igh net income on a dairy farm
as shown again in results of a
study of income and expenses on
seven farms in Clatsop county
that are cooperating under the
farm unit test demonstration of
the Tennessee Vallev authority
The study was made by staff
members of the farm manage
ment department at the state col-
Iee experiment station.
Labor income the return to
the operator for his labor anrt
management after deducting 'he
interest on the capital used was
highest when efficient use of labor
and efficient feeding were com
bined with high production. Good
improved pastures were also a
contributing factor in those show
ing high labor income. Labor in
comes varied from a loss of
$2392 to a profit of $2729. Feed
purchased per animal unit varied
from a low of $71 to a high of
$234 with an average of S136.
CTT TANSY ADVISED
For that patch of tansy ragwort.
It is better to clip the flower stalks
and spray later with 2.4-D than
it it to spray mature plants, says
Jack W. Ilansell. county extension
agent in Yamhill. After the tansy
plant bloorns, atlacide, ammale or
odium chlorate will.be the best
control material. The mixture is
one pound of material per one
gallon of water.
