WITH YOUR
COUNTY AGENT
Walter 11. Rucker
Many of you have probably seen
the spindle shaped swellings on
branches and stems of pine trees.
I nearly spring, these swellings or
cankers are covered with blisters
filled with orange powder. They
are caused by a fungus commonly
called Southern Fusiform Rust,
Canker Rust, Fusiform Canker, or
simply, Fusiform Rust.
This fungus disease strikes hard
est on slash and loblolly pines. It
attacks longleaf pines to some ex
tent and sometimes is found on
shortleaf pine. This rust causes
woodland owners to loose thous
ands of dollars each year. Infected
trees may die, but probably the
most important loss is due to the
degrading effect the fungus has on
products cut from a diseased tree.
Trees w’ith stem cankers are un
suitable for poles or piling. Much
waste occurs in cutting lumber and
other products from them.
One of the most intteresting
things about fusiform rust is that
it requires oak trees for its life
development. The orange powdery
substtance which appears on the
cankers in the spring is a mass of
spores. These spores are carried
by the wind to the leaves of oak
trees where spores capable of in
fecting pines are produced. Spores
are released from the oaks in late
spring and are carried by the wind
to new pine needles and branch
tips where, upon germination, the
fungus grows, attacking the living
inner bark. This entire cycle takes
place within only a few months.
Germination of these spores is fav
ored by a cool moist spring follow
ing a mild winter.
By observing certain precautions
those of you who have pine stands
on the farm, or only a few trees
around the home, can keep Fusi
form Rust infections to a minimum
Early thinnings in young stands
will reduce losses from the rust.
Badlv infected trees can be remov
ed by thinning. Pruning of limb
cankers which are within 18 inch
es of the stem will save manv in
fected trees. In nurseries. Fusiform
infection is prevented by weekly
spraying with fungicides.
If you have a problem with Fusi
form Rust on your pines, the in
formation contained in the Agri
cultural Extension Service Circular
440, “Southern Fusiform Rust in
Pine Stands,” will help you. This
circular was written by Harold
Baxter. Extension forestry run’'Not
ing specialist. and George D. Wal
ker, Extension forester. Copies are
available free at the County Agent
ofice.

tural Extension Service, reports the

The nation's No. 1 homemaker sets an example for the lady of the
house who wishes she could have that old ceiling redone or anew one
built.
In fact, it takes little more than a steady ladder and a stapling gun to
put up your own new ceiling with today’s modern, decorative panels.
Mrs. America shows how easy it is to install Johns-Manvillc’i hbretex
acoustical ceiling panels.
As can be seen in the photo, there are hundreds of drilled holes in
these panels-boles that soak up 75% of the room noise that strikes them.
And for Mrs. America, a busy mother of three energetic children with
strong lungs, it's an added plus value she really appreciates.
To install, start in a corner and apply the first panel simply by stapling
it to wood furring strips as shown in photo. W ith the first panel in place,
apply additional panels in the same wav, fitting the “lightning” joints
together. These joints are designed so the panels slip together easily, and
so no staples show in the finished ceiling.
These panels fill the need for an attractive, noise-quieting ceiling.
And thev come from the factory with a white painted surface that re
quires no ’’urther decoration, but, if desired, can be painted and repainted
without affecting acoustical elficiency.
Good luck with your new ceiling!
