Inquiries are being received at the Purdue Experiment station as to whether or not the so-called dry formaldehyde treatment, generally recommended for preventing oat smut, can be applied to seed wheat. The answer is no. Wheat is much more sensitive and likely to be in jured by strong formaldehyde solu tions than oats. Fcr this reason the old method of sr.rinklins the seed with a weak solution is still advo cated as tho safest treatment, ac cording to I. J. Pipal of the botan ical extension staff. The stinking smut of wheat is spread easily by threshing machines, smutted sacks or wagon boxes, and in various other ways. It is advis able, therefore, to disinfect the seed in every suspected case in order to prevent serious losses in the follow erop. It is well known that when a smutty lot ui wheat is threshed on one farm there is- enough infection carried in the separator to spread the smut to several other farms. Treatment of Sectl. The seed is treated as follows: Mix one pint of formaldehyde in 4 0 gallons of water and sprinkle this solution on the seel at the rate of cue fint to two bushels of grain. Shovel sprinkled seed over several times so as to distribute the mois ture evenly. Shovel It then Into a pile- and cover with sacks, blankets, or canvas for two hours not less nor more. Tho seed is then spread out and stirred occasionally to al low rapid drying and the escape .of the gas. It can lie sown as soon as dry enough to run freely through the drill. Care should be taken to use ab solutely reliable formaldehyde pre ferably in sealed bottles. The above treatment destroys the stinking smut only. If the grower wish 's to kill also -the loose smut diseaso which turns the entire head into a Mack smutty mass an appli cation of the hot watfr treatment Is necessary. The seed is first soak ed live hours in cold water, then tempered for one minute in hot wa ter at 120 degrees and followed with a dip for ten minutes at 129 deprees. This method, however, requires ex perienced supervision and those who wish te use it are advised to consult the county agricultural agents.
