Treated Oats
Seed Unsafe
As Stock Feed
STATE COLLEGE, Pa—Seed
oats that have been .treated with
any of the various seed protect
ants should not be fed to live
stock j)T poultry, even in rela
tively small quantities, accord
ing to a warning from Penn
sylvania Crop Improvement As
sociation Secretary, Harold
Swartley. These seed protectants
are poisons and may' injure or
kill livestock which consume this
seed.
Numerous farmers during pre
vious years have mixed left
over poisoned seed in their Jive
stock and poultry feeds, believ
ing that no barm would result
it the ratio of poisoned tp pure
grain was very low. This practice
has definitely proven costly to
some farmers.
Althpugh a low concentration
of treated grain may not be toxic
enough to kill livestock or poul
try consumption of this grain
may cause livestock to go off
feed for several days, and poul
try may cease to lay eggs or
they may produce eggs with a
poor color or bad taste.
Instances of feeding poisoned
grain have been reported in
which, all eggs for a several
week period were unsaleable
and unpalatable, apparently be
cause of some chemical reaction
which tainted the .eggs.
Farmers should take special
precautions when disposing of
surplus treated seed. Either it
should be securely stored until
the next season, or else it should
be buried or burned in. order to
prevent its consumption by eith
er domestic or game animals or
fowl.

Mexico Tests
PROGRESS REPORT NO. 43
Pennsylvania Agriculture Ex
periment Station The Pennsyl
vania State University
University Park, Pa.
Pennsylvania potato seedlings
will be tested in the highlands
of Mexico this year again as the
search for blight-resistant varie
ties moves into a new phase.
Since 1952 several hundred Pen
nsylvania seedlings have been
tested in Mexico and results are
so promising that .over 4,000 will
be tested in 1950.
Dr. Wilford R- Mills, a plant
pathologist and potato breeder
at the Pennsylvania Agricul
tural Experiment Station spent
the summer oi 1052 in Mexico
Studying potato growing condi
tions there. He found that specia
lized races of potato diseases are
more numerous in Mexico and
that weather conditions during
Tuly and August are ideal for
blight development.
For many years, Dr. Mills has
been testing his many lines of
potatoes for their resistance, but
often the weather conditions
where they were planted in Pen
nsylvania failed to provide those
attacks of late blight needed for
severe testing programs. So,
when Dr. Mills found the' Mex
ican conditions, he made arrang
ements to begin testing his plant
materials there.
Aiding him in this work is
Leopoldoa Servin, a graduate
students from Mexico. Benor
SJeryin was, studying under Dr.
Any resistant seedlings
foipd through the cooperative
research will be equally avail
able to Mexico and Pennsylvania
growers-
In Mexico, potato fields are
maintained at heights reaching
11,000 feet elevations, and these
half-wild native varieties are re
sistant to blight and frost, but
yield only 50 to 100 bushels per
acre. Siilce most Mexican grow
ers cannot snray their crops, re
sistant varieties are virtually es
sential.
