1 TRINITY REFORMED CHURCH i i i i i i i i mpaiy Grocery Phone 27 Kansas Pathologist Warns Grain Growers of Pot Rot Manhattan, Kas June 20. A new wheat disease, called foot rot by Prof. L. E. Melchers, state plant pathologist, who first noticed its appearance in this state last year, has increased to an extent that it may threaten wheat production in Kansas.

The disease has not been found to differ from take-all, which swept Australia like a plague, and in a few years wiped out the wheat growing industry in a large area of that country. Starting in small areas, it spread rapidly until entire fields or distrints were ruined. Realizing the importance of foot rot, Prof. Melchers has been active since its discovery in encouraging farmers on whose land it has been found to stop growing wheat. An experimental tract has been established in Dickinson County, where in co-operation with the United States department of agriculture, every effort is being made to as certain knowledge thrt may help prevent its spread.

It is known to be a fungus and has ceen isola ted and grown'upon artificial media, but other than for these facts The disease can be identified in young wheat by the stunted, unhealthy appearance of the wheat, but becomes more noticeable at heading time, when the wheat plant turns white and no kernels are formed. It is always found in small spots, which rapidly- increase in size. Although it is more prevalent in fields cropped continuously to wheat, it seems not confined to any one set of conditions. W.W.Kinney, United States ij.int ii.itlw.l.,..! 1 fetate Hjrriculural college this week extensive survey of the wheat on the experimental farm and found practically all plots under conrinuous wheat production to be badly damaged. Last year only a few traces of the dieease were found.

Children's Day with us this year was observed late as we were busy with the revival, meetings. The committee worked hard and under many disadvantages.
