Several rusts are common on cultivated plants, causing disease; viz., beet rust (dromyces Bete), broad bean rust (Uromyces Fabce), white pine rust (Cron- artium riStcoiwm), asparagus rust (Puccinia Asparagi), chrysanthemum rust {Puccinia Hieraeii)^ black, or wheat rust (Puccinia graminis), hollyhock rust (Puc- cinia malvacearum), etc. John W. Harshbergeb. The rusts are fungi constituting a very large and economically important class known as Uredineff. They are all obligatory parasites, attacking a vast num- ber of native and cultivated plants. The mycelium of. 2J23. Ruta eraveolens. Flowers slightly enlarged. the rust fungi exists entirely within the tissues of the host. The spores are formed in masses or sori just be- neath the epidermis. When ripe they break through the epidermis, forming brown patches and spots from which they are scattered. Many of the rusts produce several spore-forms, which often occur in regular succes- sion either on the same host or on different hosts. For example, the wheat rust produces uredospores and teleu- tospores on the wheat and secidiospores on the barberry. Rusts rarely kill the plants which they affect, and hence in many cases the damage done is not as appar- ent as in many other diseases. In all cases, however, the plants are weakened, and often much disfigured. They are among the most difficult fungous diseases to combat. Spraying has been tried in many instances, but has proved, at most, only partially successful. The most profitable cou
