Farmers of Morrow county are ur gently requested to be present at a meeting in Heppner on Saturday af ternoon at 1 o'clock at the Court House. This meeting will be ad dressed by Mr. J. C .Hawkins, of the Department of Agriculturo who is working in Morrow county under the Extension Service of the Oregon Ag ricultural College. Mr. Hawkins is especially anxious to get in touch with all the farmers and place before them his plan of combatting the smut evil. He has stated to us that the De partment oT Agriculture has dem onstrated that fully 30 per cent of the seed wheat falls to germinate because of improper treating, and tht government Is co-operating with the farmers to overcome this condition. In these times of stress, when it Is necessary to conserve the supply of wheat and get better results of pro duction, the farmers should be ready to take hold of every suggestion the government makes to better these conditions. i Mr. Hawkins requests that our farmers bring In samples of smutty grain, and also those who have clean wheat are asked to bring along sam ples. There is a strong demand for clean seed at this time and such wheat brings a fancy premium. Mr. Hawkins will use the samples In making practical demonstrations in the proper treatment of seed grain with formaldihyde, which is recom mended for smut."" As this will be a meeting for the purpose of disseminating informa tion, the farmers are requested to ask all the questions they can think of concerning smut, and ssould be prepared to place before the meeting their experience with this evil. A meeting has beeu arranged for Lexington at 10:30 Saturday morn ing, to be addressed by Mr. Hawkins. The following line of action, pre pared by H. P. Barss, botanist and plant pathologist at O. A. C. is rec ommended. This treatment has been thoroughly tested by the government covering conditions in Eastern Ore gon and farmers should preserve this paper for future reference. Necessity of Treatment. The smuts and other diseases of cereals which are carried by micro scopic spores on the seed are so com mon through Oregon, as well as else where in the United States that crops free from disease can not be expect ed unless the seed Is treated to kill the disease spores before planting. Where the treatment is properly giv en the crop will be practically free from smut. Soil Infection. Soil infection is practically un known in western Oregon "and is of little importance In most of the Co lumbia Basin. Where it does occur, it may result in a smutty wheat crop in spite of proper seed treatment. In regions where soil infections are fre quent, it is reported that much of the danger from this source may be avoided by very early or late plant ing. Formaldehyde Treating Solution. The formaldehyde method is ef fective, inexpensive and is the one most commonly used. The ordinary dilution Is: Formaldehyde (Formalin) full strength (about 37 per cent), 1 pint; water, 40 gallons. One pint in 45 gallons is sometimes used and apparently with equal ef fectiveness. Two good methods oi treating with formaldehyde are giv en below. A. Tank or Barrel Treatment. 1. Run grain through fanning mill to remove smut balls, shrunken ker nels, etc. 2. Partly fill tank or barrel with solution and put in the grain. For Wheat: If the seed is not I known to be perfectly free from smut balls, pour the wheat in loose, stir with hoe or other Implement to bring the smut balls to the surface, and skim off. If seed Is known to be perfectly free from smut balls, It may I be treated in partially filled sacks. Soak for 30 minutes. . Remove, drain : and plant the same day or wash with ' pure water and spread out to dry. I For Oats: Put oats in gunny sacks 'and soak for 20 minutes in the solu 1 tion. Take out, drain and plant at once. If grain Is to be kept for a lat er day, wash with pure water and dry thoroughly. , ' For barley: Barley is more sensl tlve to the action of formaldehyde than wheat or oats. Use same meth od as for oats but use the weaker so lution, 1 pint formaldehyde to 45 or 60 gallons of water and soak for 10 minutes only. It should then be wash ed with pure water, drained, and if it Is not seeded shortly should be thor oughtly dried. ' B. Sprinkling Method. 1. Run grain through fanning mill. 2. Spread grain out on , a clean floor or tarpaulin a few Inches thick. 3 Sprinkle with tie 1 pint to 40 gallons solution of formaldehyde, us ing a sprinkling can or sprayer. 4. Shovel or hoe the grain over.till every kernel Is wet. WE SELL PURE WHITE FLOUR NONE BETTER HEPPNER FARMERS' UNION WAREHOUSE CO WE HANDLE WHEAT AND WOOL.
