being attacked by the rust and as a
consequence are dying on many of
the plants.
Early headed fields, though are so
far advanced that there is probably
almost enough substance in the stem
to fill the kernels, Dr. Kiesselbach
said in answer to scores of inquiries
now coming to the college of agri
culture. He indicated that farmers
cculd expect "well-filled heads and
the kernels to develop in a fairly nor
mal manner in such wheat. In the
late heading wheat, fewer heads
with somewhat greater sterility and

Some indications as to whether
winter wheat would escape injury

;i experimental data
it the agricul
tural college. From the lime the
wheat is in full head, it is usually I'S
days until the wheat reaches matur
ity. In Saline rouniv. Dr. Kiesselbach
i
land Dr. Goss found conditions ex-
ert'ble growth before the wheat
: reaches the bull-head or fertilized
stage. By that time, the leaves may
' h a v e ceased functioning. There
I would probably not be enough sub
stance in the stem to properly develop
the head and this would result in
severe damage.
1 That the late wheat which has not
yet headed out may be subject to
jblackstem rust was also the thought
projected by the agricultural college

in from Re2 Willow county by Agri

"Weather conditions though will
determine the damage yet to be done
by stem rust." said Dr. Goss. "Warm
dry weather would hurry ihe wheat
along and cu; down possible damage
considerably."

PLATTS TROOP'S SCORE AT
Scoutmaster Raymond Larson has
received the official rating sheet for
Troop 3 64 of this city at the cam
poree held here June 6 and 7.. It is
interesting to note that Flattsmouth
scored 14 5S points, or 61 above the
camp average of 13!i7. As previously
reported the local troop made a "B"
rating.
Failure of the local troop to com
pete in four of the last five com
petitive events cost Flattsmouth pos
sibility of making a higher score
although had they made perfect
rating in all four of the events
not competed in. they would still
have fallen short of the required
lS2ii points for "A" rating.
