During the past two years there seems / to have been a gradual increase in the amount of.damage or rotten com in the fields throughout the state. Investigations started last fall and continued tliis i summer shows that the large majority of 1; this trouble is due to a fungus disease f known as dry rot or ear rot of corn. In one lield recently investigated in Darling- t ton County we found 20 per cent of the t ears destro yed by this disease. Reports e have come in from other sections showing s that the disease is wide-spread and is caus- t ing considerable damage. Now any disease that injures our com crop is of vital c interest, and every farmer should know u enough about such a disease to enable 'I him to recognize it when he comes in con- c tact with it, and to enable him to combat t it where It causes loss. It is hoped that at (J least a part of such knowledge will be v gained from this article. c Symptoms of the disease are very char- r acteristic. At the time the corn begins to a ripen, the husks on the diseased ears turn r prematurely yellow. Later, they assure a a mottled or blackish appearance and seems ft to stick very close to the ears. When the husks are pulled back from such ears the grains will be found to be shriveled and immnt.nre and the ear will be not.icfln.hlv decreased in weight. Later, the grains appear very brittle and frequently assume a C brownish color. At this stage the whole 1 ear is usually overrun with a white look- a ing mold. When the diseased ears are b broken acress, small black fruiting bodies of the fungus will bo found on the tips of n the grains and in the cob. A This rot is caused by a parasitic fungus, C Diplodea maydis. Studies of the life history of the fungus recently made at the e Nebraska and Illinois Experiment Stations show that the fungus lives over winter on S the diseased ears and stalks which are 1< left in the held. It spreads from these to the new corn the following season at the d corn is in silk and tassel. The infection takes place through the silks. If the s; weather conditions are favorable for the development of the fungus at this stage 3V the disease spreads very rapidly. At the Illinois Station the fungus has been found to live on the old corn stalks in the field for two years, and in some cases for three years. They recommend that the corn stalks bo removed from the field and de stroyed and that a rotation be practiced which will keep corn off the land for two n years. It seems that such measures would eliminate the disease. I have in J mind one case in this state, however, where where the disease has done considerable si damage in the face of such rotation, so it V 3eems that some further data are needed p before we can give deilnite measures for t1 controlling the disease. In this connection it is well to keep in mind the fact that t< removing the corn stalks from the field d eliminates one of the principal sources of infection for the next season, his emphasizes the advantage to be gained by cutting and shredding the corn. As stated r however, we need more data which will upply to southern methods and conditions, d in order to secure such information, we r, need co-operation. We are pushing this investigation now and are asking that P 3very one who has the disease in his field tvill write us about it and send us speci- ,, mens. We have on hand a uumber of Cl franked tags which will bring specimens a -hrough the mail|free, and we will be glad jo send these to anyone desiring to send D such specimens. Where cases seem to war*ant it, we will be glad to visit fields k ivhere the disease is causing trouble and ook into the conditions prevailing there. P H. W. J3arre, Botanist, w S. C.

There will be a treat seldom in store for the amusement going public when the "Mighty Haag Shows" exhibit at Abbeville on October 15th. The program this year has been so arranged as to please everybody, being one of the greatest list of features ever j. offered by any amusement purveyor. E. Haag, proprietor of the Mighty Haag Shows, was successful in securing the celebrated aviator, Mons. Di' Pauhiaru, as nno r\f fKo faofuraa qIca oannrinnr nnA nf the rarest animals known to anlm&ldom, "The Hippotragus Equinius" which today is almost extinct; when added to his large zoological collcctlon will make it second to none. These two features are alone worth the price of admission and with other amusement enterprises would be the crowning feature, while with the Mighty Haag it to :. ' $ only one of the many features offered by the big Southern Circus. The seal of approval has been placed < upon the Mighty Haag S^ows by the amusement going public of the entire . South. While the thrilling aerial and arenlo < acts as well as sensational equestrianism -i and hippodrome track events are absolutely essential to all big tented sbofws, J their performances would fall flat were it | not for the clowns. Primarily the majority of show going enthusiasts, not to mention the small boys and gins, visit , the canvas cities to be amused and the salaried jesters must see to it that none are disappointed. Realizing that a goodly , share of the success of the entertainment, depends upon the funsters, the mighty Haag Shows, which give afternoon and evening performances October 15th. in Abbeville engaged for this season as unpaiailed a quota of world-famous clowns as money can hire. There is a veritable army of those jollyfellows, whose sole work is to provide wholesome laughs and amusement for ail classes and all ages. From the time the main tent doors are open, which is an hour before the first act enters the rings, until the end of the program, the great hippodrome track swarms with hariequines, and mirth reigns fast and furious. The Katzanyammer Kids, Buster Brown, Simple Simon, and the Billiken, those together with all the other comio supplement characters are there, as well as more than a score of others. If vou * do not wish to enjoy hale and hearty jollity, it will be advisable to remain away from the mighty Haag 8hows. On the ? other hand if you are suffering from an attack of the blues, a certain and perma- , nent cure is assured if you attend the 1 performance. t m "3 LOWNOESVILLE. Mr. and Mrs. t>. L.
