Bulletin No. 84 - The Grain Smuts, Lewis A. Merrill, B. F. Eliason

UAES Bulletins

Farmers are urged to treat all their seed grain with Formalin, during the coming spring, and thus save to the state, next year, thousands of dollars now lost by smut-infested grain.

Formalin can be purchased at any drug store for about seventy-five cents per pound. Pour one pound of Formalin in fifty gallons of water and completely submerge the seed grain, which is loosely held in burlap sacks, for ten minutes. Dry the seed and it is ready for use.

UAES Bulletins

It is simply a brief resume of the history and nature of pear-blight, together with the treatment of the disease that we have found to be most successful, during the last two years, at this Experiment Station.

Pruning is a means to an end. So then to prune intelligently and therefore successfully, there should be in the mind of the operator some definite purpose.
