Wheat Smut Found In Omar Fields, Seed Care Urged Victory of a new race of smut over the efforts of plant scient,- ists to develop a smut-esistant wheat emphasizes the need for farmers to treat seed for smut control, according to W. B. Ray mer, extension plant pathologist at Oregon State college. He said a new smut race has been reported in test plantings and several commercial fields of Omar wheat, near Pullman, Wash. C. S. Holton, USDA plant pathologist stationed at Wash ington State college, said the new smut race is probably a hybrid, developed through the accidental crossing of several known smut races. Previous to this, Omar had come, through 10 years of test ing without showing a single smutty head. The new pastry wheat was released two years ago for production in the higher rainfall areas of eastern Oregon and Washington and northern Idaho. x While no cases of smut have been reported in fields of Omar in Oregon, D. D. Hill, head of the farm crops department at OSC, advised farmers to treat all seed including Omar before plant ing. This would greatly reduce the amount of smut infection, he pointed out and should delay introduction of the new smut race into Oregon wheat-growing areas. Hill also suggested farmers buy Omar seed from smut-free fields if possible, but emphasized seed treatment would still be a wise precaution. Seed treatment with one ounce of 75 percent PCNB pentachloro- nitrobenzene), or with one ouncej oi w percent tia inexacnioro benzene), per bushel of wheat seed was recommended by Ray mer. These materials, used as di rected on the label, should com pletely control seed-borne smut tiv reduce infection by soil-borne smut organisms, he said. o Mr. and Mrs. Hraold H.
