Sprinkle the formalin solution over the grain, then shovel the grain into another pile so as to ‘mix it thoroughly; then sprinkle and shovel again. Repeat this operation until every grain is moistened by the solution. Just enough of the solution should be applied to thoroughly wet every grain, but not enough to make the grain wet and sappy. In treating small quantities, use proportional amounts of the formalin solution. After the grain has been thoroughly sprinkled, cover the pile with bags or sacking that have been sprinkled with or soaked in a formalin solution and leave for three or four hours. At the end of this time spread the grain out thinly to dry. Shovel it over three or four times to hasten the drying. “Experiments conducted in the United States dui‘ing the past few yeafs and this year in Ontario, de- monstrated that copper carbonate dust is the most satisfactory seed disin- fectant for the prevention of stink- ing smut or bunt of Wheat. T-wo Kinds of Smut “There are two kinds of wheat smut in Ontario, namely, Stinking Smut or Bunt and Loose Smut of Wheat. The stinking smut or bunt was very prevalent last year. and I expect to hear that it is prevalent again this year, judging by the am- ount that has developed in our check plots in our experimental work. Another Method “Stinking smut or bunt can also be prevented by sprinkling with a dilut- ed formalin solution. The directions for sprinkling with a formalin solution are as follows;â€" An Unavoidable Loss Deterioration in the quality of On- tario wheat from smut became so pro- nounced last year that the Grain 'Standards Board for the Toronto Dis- trict of the Eastern Inspection Divi- sion directed the attentions of Hon. J. S. Martin, Minister of Agriculture, to the great importance of farmers treating their seed grain for smut if they are to produce crops to yield the largest monetary returns. Such treat- ment will easily remove the heavy annual 1053, and to indicate what line of procedure must be followed the Ontario Agricultural College, which has done some experimenting along this line, recently issued a statement. “Directions for the copper carbonate dust treatment:â€"'1he' dust should be applied at the rate of 2 oz per bushel of wheat. Place the grain to be treated in a barrel or churn about a bushel at a time. Add the required amount of copper carbonate dust and then revolve the barel or churn un- til the dust is thoroughly mixed with the grain After this treatment the grain may be bagged and sown at once. This method of applying the dust involves much time and labor if large quantities of grain are treated. Machines are now on the market, however, for applying dust rapidly to large quantities of seed. Records of official inspections in the Eastern Division indicated that over thirty per cent of the grain had been ‘excluded from the Standard Grades, while it is expected that the percent~ age‘ of the total crop would be larger. The estimate was that the presence of smut would mean a diseased re- turn to the farmers of the Province of from five cents to fifteen cents a bushel below the normal price of No. 2 winter wheat, or a total loss as stated above. ' Fully $700,000.00 has been lost to [Ontario farmers owing to the pres- 'ence of smut in last season’s No. 2 winter wheat. This estimate has been arrived at after an inspection of the samples of' grain collected from all parts of the Province for use in set- ting the standards for Conmiercial Grades of Grain for the last season when it was shown that a large per- centage of the grain would grade he-1 low the Standard Grades.

Such seed would pro- duce a crop free from this smut. If loose smut is bad and it is impossible to secure seed free from infection, it may be necessary to establish a seed plot and treat the seed with Jensen’s Modifid Hot Water Treatment. Forty gallons of the formalin solu- tion is sufficient to sprinkle between ,lfifty and sixty bushels of grain. Avoid Wet Soppy Grain “The objection to treating with formalin solution is that there is great danger of injuring the vitality ‘of the seed. It is not wise to use lformalin solution stronger than 1 pint to forty gallons, and care must be taken not to apply too much of it to the grain. To secure satisfactory results, just enough of the formalin solution should he applied to every‘ grain, but not enough to make it wet and soppy Toronto Central Women’s Institute, Nov. 16-17-18.
