Oat Smut Caused
by Minute Plant
Enters Developing Kemels
and Turns Them Into
Powdery Masses.
Oat smut is caused by a very mi
nute plant which lives parasiticaily
within the tissues of the oat plant.
It gains entrance In the seedling
stage, about the time the plant
emerging from the soli. When once
inside it grows upward through the
tissues of the stem, giving little or
no external evidence of its presence
until the heads are produced. At this
time it enters the developing kernels
and destroys them by forming black
powdery musses in their places.
Important Parasit«.
The black powdery substance la
found to be made of millions of small,
spherical, dark bodies called •'spore*.**
Spores represent the reproductive
phase of tiie parasite and are im
portant in that they are the means by
which the smut 1» spread. They are of
very light weight and easily carried
by air currents for long distances.
They find lodgment upon, or under
neath, the chuff of healthy grains and
remain there nntll the grain is sown.
Under favorable conditions the spores
germinate soon after germination of
the grain itself. They produce^ a
tiny transparent infection thread
which soon penetrates the young tis
sues of the growing seedling and
thereafter keeps pace with the upward
growth Of the stalk.
Produc« Dark Spores.
By the time the plants arrive at ma
turity the original infection threads
hava grown so extensively that they
eptfr the devel oping kernel sand pro
duce the characteristic large masses
of dark spores. This simple life cycle
of the smut fungus is completed but
ouce during the growing season, and,
unless it Is checked by means of effec
tive seed treatment, may continue in
definitely In succeeding crops.—Exten

Top-Dressing Alfalfa Is
Proper Thing for Spring
The practice of top-dressing alfalfa
with manure during the winter is not
recommended by the Ohio experiment
station. It frequently result * In In
Jury to the stand and la not a sure
preventive of winterkilling Top dress
ing In the spring with a moderate
application of acid phosphate is to be
preferred.
If from very late catting in the fall
or other cause the stand is too thin In
the spring for s good crop, a full har
vest of hay may be secured by drilling
in oats In March or early April with
a disc drill, at the rate of three or four
pecks per acre. The mixture of oats
and alfalfa wli) make a bay of good
quality.
Mf an early Variety of oats, euch as
Fulghum, Sixty Day, Kherson, or Burt
is sown, the mixture mav be cut when
the alfalfa is coming Into bloom and
will make a hay of good quality.
The second cutting will be almost
puye alfalfa. A mixture of three
pounds of timothy seed and two of
alsike per acre may be seeded with
the oats. This will gradually till the
spaces between the scattered alfalfa

Breeding Cows and Sows
Like Sweet Alfalfa Hay
The man who has some nice, sweet
alfalfa hay stored away need not have
much trouble with his breeding stock.
If he will make liberal use or it. Cow*
fed on good legume hay will drop strong
calves. Sows will farrow strong, vig
orous litters If they are fed plenty of
alfalfa and oats or barley, and sparing
ly of com. Breeding cows or sows
should not run with nor be fed with
the fattening stock. Some breeders al
low their sows to run with the general
drove up to within two or tnree week*
of farrowing time. It's a mistake, and
small lifters with cross mothers are
the outcome.
Alfalfa hay Is a good conditioner,
and it's a good bone builder ; you can t
find anything better, and the good
careful live stock feeder will see that
his stock has plenty of it during the
next two or three months.

Diversified Fanning
• Is Winning Friends
Find Stock Profitable Side
Line in the West
(Prepared by the United Htntei Department
of Acrlcultnrn. )
The effective farm trio—the cow, the
hog, and the hen—have recently won
many friends in a wheat-growing coun
ty of the West, iHiuglas county, Wash.
This dry land section had been plant
ing wheat and buying most of Its but
ter and eggs and using much canned
milk and cream. For the lust three or
four years the county agricultural ex
tension agent, leading fanners, and
business men of the county have been
endeavoring to bring about the gradual
addition of enough live »lock on the
wheat farms to help feed the family
and nia\> a good contribution toward
running expenses. Most of the Dougins
county men have made the change in
their farming systems by degree's, be
ginning with only a few animals, gen
erally three or four cows, two brood
sows, and about SO chickens. As the
growing of feed crops permits and skill
in handling live stock develops, the
flock and herds usually are built up to
the amount of live stock the farm
should carry.
Mow generally this diversified farm
ing plan has been developed in the
county is shown by the fact that in
stead of Importing butter, eggs, and
cream, ns was the Vase three years
ago, there was shipped out of the
county during the year ending May l,
1923, according to reports to the Unit
ed States Department of Ag «.-ulture, a
surplus of over 6,000 cases of eggt,
13.000 pounds of butter, and 46,000 gal
lons of cream. • In addition. It is esti
mated that the amount of poultry
and dairy products used in the county
««e the» do ubled in the three
years.
Plowing Up Barn Lots Is
Beneficial to Animals
Hog raisers may accomplish two de
sirable results by plowing up the burn
lots at least once a year. In the first
place, hogs need good succulent pas
ture as much of the time as possible,
and In the second place, they need pro
tection hgainat internal parasites, such
as round worms, the eggs of which re
main In the soil. Turning the soil in
the lots helps to get rid of the pests
and the crop of forage makes it a
profitable operation, write» Jack L.
Baker in the Indiana Farmer's Guide.
In addition to providing cheap *-oteln
feed, pasture crops sld as a laxative
and require the hogs to take a certain
amount of exercise which is necessary
to breeding animals and growing pigs.
Is probably the best crop to us*
for winter and spring pasture for hogs.
By putting in successive plantings
from two to four weeks apart it is pos
sible to have fresh pasture all the
time. SeedIng fo r pas ture should be
much heavier than ffor grain crop;
from three to four bushels per acre on
a good soil Is best. Pasturing can be
gin six weeks after seeding, and may
be continued if the rye Is not cov
ered with snow, until the following
April.

most desirable frees to be left perma

possible and remove the superfluous
trees. Most towns hsve n large nbm
her of trees that should be removed In
order that the remaining ones may be
developed symmetrically true to the
best type"of their species. Remember
that Isolated trees must protect them
selves and the branches must shade
the trunk. Sun scald Is nearly a I wars
followed by an attack of borers and
many trees are lost by Improper prun
ing. An attempt to grow trees with
too small tranks is likely t<^ be fatal
to many of them.
The woodlot should be carefully In
spected, leaving the trees that prom

years.

The greater the number of pig*
raised per sow the less the coif per

of protein, hence the necessity of feed
ing plenty of protein to the sow from
breeding to farrowing time h» order
that she may produce a large, strong,
