Corn Smut and Disease.

Probably never in the history of corn ^rowing in this state has there been more smut present on the fodder than can be found this fall. The conditions for development were very favorable and some fields are very badly infected. The presence of much smut on fodder is popularly believed to cause disease among stock. A number of communications have been received during the past two weeks, reciting losses due to this cause. This belief is very old, as one of the earliest writers upon smut in 1784 felt it necessary to make experiments to demonstrate the truth or fallacy of the belief at that time.

If we take the results of all available experiments from that date to the present time, as a basis for a conclusion rather the statements of those who have lost animals thought to be due to thiB cause, the real dauger to stock from eating corn smut is very small. In the experiments of feeding smut, the quantity has often been made many many times greater than it would be possible for an animal to obtain in the ordinary grazing of stalks. The periods have been from a few days to two or three weeks. With few exceptions the results have been negative. At this station extracts were made and given by mouth and hypodermic injection. The dose obtained in this manner represented very large quantities of crude smut. Only slight illness followed the administration by mouth and serious results occurred only after the administration of large quantities by Injection.

The conclusion cannot be other than that only under rare circumstances could an animal get a fatal dose or that death might come to a specially susceptible individual. The loss due to this cause must be very small.
