In a number of cases rather high percentages of scabbed barley heads were noted. Individual fields in Kentucky and Tennessee were observed where 50 and 40% of the heads were scabbed, respectively. In Iv'innesota the highest percentage noted was J,0%', in Iowa 20%; in Missouri 10%. On the whole, the general infection area on barley coincides in general with that where the wheat scab epidemic was severe, hence it is not surprising that the disease on barley should have been found to occur more extensively in I919 than heretofore. As to relations of these high percentages of scab on barley to previous crops on those fields, it is particularly interesting to note that"where these highest percentages of scab in barley occurred in Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri,
