Barberry Bush Eradication Survey Expands Across North Dakota
Twenty four field men under Geo C J Mayone begin farm to farm surveys in North Dakota to eradicate barberry bushes and curb black rust losses. Work directed by the U S Department of Agriculture covers Pierce McHenry Wells Bottineau Towner and Rolette counties with plans to survey many more counties and neighboring states. Mayone says stamping out barberry will cut rust spread as spores travel on winds across vast areas. Specimens can be sent to the Agricultural college for identification.
