JUESDAY, MAY 17, 1949 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE SEVEN Virus Disease Ravages Wheat n Kansas Topeka, May 17—(U.P.)—A mysterious virus disease in wheat today was creeping over Kansas, the state which regularly produces one-north of the nation's total crop of bread grain. As much as 50 per cent of the winter wheat crop in Lane and cott counties appeared to have been hit by "western wheat mosaic." A. B. Erhart, superintendent of the Garden City state agricultural experiment station, said that in the Western section, whole fields of wheat had been plowed under after eing ravaged by the disease. But Erhart and other experts id the virus may have "run its arse." The disease has struck wheat in the Western third of the state from the Nebraska to the Oklahoma borers. Some damage also has been sported in Eastern Colorado. Erhart said that in his section one fields appeared to be recovering from the virus. "If they continue to recover," he said, "the damage may be considerably less than 50 million dollars. On the other hand, if the disease continues to spread and becomes stronger, the damage could be more." Crop experts from Kansas State college, federal and state agriculture authorities, and farmers are udying the disease. They think the green bug," a crop insect found in seeds in the autumn, spreads a virus. Government offices here esti 1ed that one million acres of heat have been planted in the eastern third of the state. "That would take from seven to eight years," he said. We only answer to the virus outreach. It it continues to spread, Erwart said, is to develop new varieties of that which will withstand its tecks. Erhart said the disease has beenown to strike in the state before it that the outbreak is the worsthis experience. The disease appeared to have hit hardest in Scott and Lane counties near Dighton. Field agent Leslie Frazier said that damage there which could run as high as 50 per cent is increasing 10 to 20 per cent a week. All known varieties of wheat in state have been affected. L. E. Melchers, head of the Boty department at Kansas State, id the extent of the damage still not known accurately. Dr. Hurley blows, plant pathologist at the ilege, was expected to return from field trip through affected areas day. Rea Butler, government expert, haspected to arrive here today report on his investigations in a afflicted area. Erhart said the fields where "volteer" wheat had been plowed older were hit hardest. "Volunteer" heat is that which springs from mrels left lying on the ground in harvest. The first compulsory milk pasurization law was passed in 1908 Chicago. Now all milk for the med forces and 88 per cent of the id milk supply in United States les is pasteurized. Expert Watch REPAIR Electronically Timed Guaranteed Satisfaction 1 week or less service.
