The collection made in Davie County, by Coun ty Agent George Evans, makes the sixth county of this state in which ‘take-al” is now known to occur. “This disease is very destructive,” con | tinned Dr. Wolf. “It has certain fea tures which will enable any wheat grower • to recognize it with considerable accuracy. I The grower will find the affected plants !in well-defined spot to be dwarfed or shrunken. These plants may be only six Ito ten inches in height while normal plants aTe about four feet in height. Many of the affected plants will die prematurely or remain green until har vest time. The heads are always poorly filled while the lower joints are dnrk or entirely blackened and surrounded by a layer of delicate brown threads. These threads are a part of the eausal fungus and imbedded in them ace the hhtek fruit bodies ot the fungus. The roots are also blackened and somewhat decayed;” Dr. Wolfe explained that investigations were now tinder way by the North Car olina Experiment Station, co-operating with the United States Department of Agriculture. These studies have shown that oats and rye are immune to the trouble and that, certain varieties of wheat may also be immune. Dr. Wolff stated that the studies now being made may develop varieties of wheat that may be grown with safety in the infected soils. “This fungus," he concluded, “will at tack wheat, barley, spelt, quack grass, cheat and a number of the wild cultivated grasses.” MEXICAN PRESIDENT TO ANSWER KELLOGG Will Give Mexican Views of Statement Made by the Secretary of State.
