EUaville, Ga., Thursday Morning, July 29th 18S7 INFORMATION r FOR FARMERS Ran on lta«l. have Question. —My hybrid perpetual rosea been attacked by some enemy, causing yellow spots upon the leaves, | which have gradually extended uutil the whole plant seems affected. The young branches are drawn up and the general appearance of the bushes is sickly and deformed. The tea roses do not seem to have contracted the disease, whatever it is, but my hollyhocks are infected with what appears to be the tame disease. The plants seem to have dried up, and what was once a promise of lovely flowers is now only a disap pointment. What shall I do for them? Answer— The disease which has at tacked yonr oses is easily recognized as rose rust, to which the hardy hybrid perpetuals are peculiarly subject, and unless checked will develop winter spores, which will live through the win ter, and start again on their work of de struction when the pleasant weather of spring begins. The best plan is to watch the rose bushes, and as soon as the lemon colored spots are discovered that portion of the plant should be re ; moved and burned. Also, in the an | amUf a ii fallen leaves underneath the two kinds of rust; one attacks the blades, the other the stalks, and the latter does much the most damage. Answer.—Y m are mistakeu as to their being two kinds of rust that at tack wheat. The same rust attacks the blades and stalks indiscriminately. As a rule the blades are first attacked, either from tlieir greater S isceiwibility or because the staiks have not made their appearance, when the spores, or seeds af the fungus that produces rust, first settle upon the plant. Hot, wot weather is most conducive to the devel opment of this fuugus, and some varie ties of w.ieat are more easily affected than others. Weak plants are more liable to attack than those of vigorous growth, henea the importance of plant ing the best seed. There has beau no remedy discovered for this dise.,sa, when once it makes its appearance on the wneat. We can, however, use pre i ventive means by a careful selection | of seed, and so treating it before : planting as in some measure to 1 guard against this disease. The sim plest treatment, aud oue that gives as good resuits as auv, is to soak the seed wheat for two or three hours in a solu tion made of four ounces of sulphate of copper (bluestoue) to a gallon of water. Stir the wheat oc -asionaily and skim off all the light aud defective seed that rise to the top. It is claimed by some that a free use of salt as a fertilizer will prevent rust, but this has not been demonstrated. The rust of course does most damage wheu it attacks the stalks, for theu the grain is directly injured. If you will select your seed from wheat that fully matured and riponed in the field, entirely free from rust, and will then treat it as described, you will stand a fair chance of escaping rust, though it frequently appears after every pains has been taken to prevent it.—State Agricultural Department. Sorghain might. Question.— This year my young sor ghum crop has growu very slowly—the development has been so unusually de layed as to attract my attention, and I notice now'that the lower leaves are dy ing and that little red spots in clusters are appearing on the plants. On exam ination I find that the roots seem dis eased—in some oases seem to have rot ted. and even the larger plants may be puiled up without difficulty. A3 sor ghum roots, after the first few weeks, are usually tough aud tenacious, I must think that the trouble lies in the roots and not in the leaves, altnough the leaves indicate a diseased condition of the plant. Answer.—Y ou are correct in suppos ing that the seat of the disease is in the roots, and the distinct species of baote ria causing the blight can only be seen ! with the aid of high microsoopic power. So far as is known, rotation of crops is the best meaus yet fonud for prevent ing this disease, aud also to burn up all •talks, stubble and refuse from the in footed sorghum crop.—State Agriouit ural Department Volume VII.
