visited areas where rust has been preva lent many good ranches in reach and uxbridge townships have been at tacked during the past season by white groub the sod being destroy ed to the extent where no grass is growing whatsoever this year on the affected area it was the opinion of the com mittee that where possible these areas should be diced and reseeded to pasture mixtures using a high percentage of clovers in the mix tures sweet clover was also recommended in the mixture in order that new sod could be established as soon as possible many fairs have experienced heavy losses from rust during the past few years in many localities buckthorn and wild barberry is quite common in fence rows and these two shrubs are hosts to red rust during the latter part of may and june the rust spores then leave the barberry and are blown to grain crops where great damage results it is recommended that fence rows be cleared of these shrubs to prevent the spreading of rust some farmers have had good success hiring a bulldozzev to completely remove the fence rows where shrubs and undergrowth are thick by this means fence rows can be cultivated keeping down these shrubs other farmers have already trimmed out fence rows and are endeavouring to spray new growth with chemical weed killers the agricultural committee of the county counciland those at tending the meeting were v warden james
