Show YOUR COUNTY AGENTS COLUMN County Agent Writes On Wheat Mold from last Week Continued What kind of weather favors the mold? snow mold in The speckled particular prefers a winter with plenty of snow falling on unfroWet snow and zen ground soil are ideal for it In 1952-5the fungus grew without much snow but the ground was soft during much of the time What about resistant varieties? have No resistant varieties thus far been found date of seeding? What about In Douglas County growers that have found early seeding helps July seeding gives a good plant and sturdy crown but too much leaf growth danger from autumn leaf rust or insects etc Many growers prefer to seed in However to eajly seeding in very late August and especially in September may be fatal in bad mold areas because the small wheat plants do not develop enough crown to escape complete killing by the mold of tillage? What about kind Since there is a general spore shower of the speckled mold in and early to late late October makes it probably November as to kind of little dfference tillage such as plowing under the stubble as contrasted with trashy Cheat fallow grass (downy brome) and some other common are widespread carriers grasses of both speckled mold and pink mold and it is difficult to elmin-at- e all of the sources of the disease What about the spring seeded wheat? Spring wheat of course is free ol mold and a spring frop now and then seems to tend to reduce the prevalence of mold in the long run- In tho general spring wheat is less profitable except were snow mold is hopelessly bad When is it necessary to reseed? When the stand is obviously too thin to stool out and still make a crop In general it is Utter to leave any reasonable stand because unless continued cold wet weather and spring spring frists prevent recovery stand will stool out and recover and do better if A mixture left alone of and spring planted wheat is not good What about fertilizers? Snow mold cannot be controlled or very greatly benefited by practical applications of fertilizer (20 lbs of actual nitrogen per acre is generally considered as desirable in Douglas County) Fertilizers do help the plants to recover however What about chemicals? We have tried many materials and some give fairly good t are too expensive to be practical Since the time to stop snow mold is during the spore shower in November our best luck has been' with Cereson M used at 5 pounds per acre When we apply this with 40 pounds of nitrogen fertilizer such as pelleted urea (NuGreen) we have had control in practical Where we have used airplots acre on an plane application there 'is some reinfection basis incomwere which from areas exWe suggest pletely treated perimental land use of Cereson M at 5 pounds in 40 pounds of NuGreen per acre to be applied If it as uniformly as possible saves reseeding the grower may In genfind that it is practical eral however the odds are still against chemical control of mold on winter wheat What is Washington State College planning to do in the future toward 'control? v Expanded research on chemical control will be stressed in an effort to find a chemical control which will be effective but not too expensive to be practical-AddeNote: Yield data from Ccrcsan-treateplots and fields that this treatgave indication ment showed more promise than in late had appeared spring is chronically Where reseeding Ceresan-urenecessary treating is suggested as desirable WED STUDENT BEAVER of Miss Carolyn The marriage Thorpe of Logan and Dennis E son of Mr and Mrs Simmons of Beaver Simmon Thomas Y Dam took place at the Logan 15A Oct Temple Thursday reception at Logan honored them in the evening The bride is a daughter of Mr- and Mrs Derle Thorpe DAUGHTERS OF PIONEERS MEET AT EAST GARLAND gren when she visited her parents in Burley two days last week— Norma also went with Greetings!
