ISLAND. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1889. ‘LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. Grain Rust. | Sin,—In my last I showed why early | grain is not so liable to rust as late. 1 will lnow explain why grain suffers less from rust on dry ground than it does on wet. ‘On all open, dry soils, the rainfall passes ‘freely downward, carrying into their re- _cesses an abundant supply of vitalizing air. The surface of such soils is consequently ‘dry, and no unusual moisture encum bers the growing grain. Rust spores lighting on such grain die for want of moisture and fall to the ground as harmless dust. On wet, retentive soils, however, a great | part of the rainfall remains on or near the surface and returns jnto the air as vapor. Oa the least change of temperature, as ‘from the heat of a summer afternoon to the ‘cool of evening, this vapor is deposited on !the stem and leaves of the grain. It is this ‘unusual supply of moisture which favors ‘the development of rust. When the micro- geopie spores light ou the leaves or stalks of this gram, the abundant moisture enabies hem to shoot out their tiny rootlets in two or three hours. These wander over the 'suriace of the plant till they find a breath- ing Into this they enter, and then the fungi revel on the rich juices of their ‘victim. Im seven days they are fully developed, and begin to shed spores in _fres!: myriads to infest the rest of the field. Ore. ln passing through the country jlast August, 1 observed fields of grain on low ground quite red with rust, while neighboring fields on high, dry land, were not noticeably affected. This, 1 noticed particularly at Nine Mile Creek, where low, flat lands are in the near vicinity of high sandstone ridges. The reports of the worst cases of rusting this season came from the fiat inland valleys, surrounded by large extents of high land. The valley of the Winter River suffered particularly. This broad valley lies between two elevated ridges of country, one running up the north side of the Hillsborough River, the other forming the watershed of the north side of the Island. On a calm wnight, the cool air from the high lands settle down in the val- ley and promotes the deposition of vapor. I have myself seen this vailey, on an autumn evening, filled with a white mist-wreath stretching as far as you could see, while the adjacent high lands were completely free from such an aqueous envelope. But the Winter River valley is not alone in this respeet. livery flat enclosed valley is subject to the same. And every farmer of experience knows that the frequent oc- currence of the mist-wreath means rust. { may remark that the application of mineral manures, which strengthen the growth of stalk and grain without increas- ing the mass of foliage, 18 sometimes bene- ciai by decreasing the shade and moisture in the field. It is moisture, moisture, moisture which promotes the growth of the parasitic fangus which we call rust. it has been asked, if an abundance Unsolicited testimonials regarding their merits Se. in every department eG es A COOK BOOK FREE By mail to any lady sending us her post office address.

Among heath soils he gives the analysisof onenoted for producing rusted grain every year. [t contains of potash and soda .090 percent. Another very fertile soil, in Hanover, which aiways produced good crops, coutains only .004 per cent. of potash and soda, that 1s not the twentieth part as much as the heath soil where grain always rusted. So we need not think to escape rust by piling potash into the soil. Karly sowing, thorough tillage, efficient manuring, so as to hasten the ma- turity of the crop, are the proper means, to employ against this enemy. But if any locality is proved to be particularly liable to the rust in spite ofall precautions, better devote it o grass or some other crop which may be equally profitable with grain. F.

The cross, which is of wrought iron, was manufactured by Mr, Michael McCarron, and is the highest if not the costliest gift te the church, and reflects much credit on the donor. Mr. Woodiy Llewellyn’s grist mill isa good one, and does a large amount of work and gives guod satisfaction.

Your correspondent noticed that some of the roads in this section are much narrower than the law requires.

The supervisor has been repestedly informed in reference to this matter, but has as yet taken no legal steps to redress this grievance.
