Adams, representatives of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, arrived in McHenry a few days ago and resumed the barberry eradication activities which were suspended last fall before the survey of McHenry county was completed. The common barberry is being eradicated because it spreads the harmful black stem rust to wheat, oats, barley and rye. Stem rust causes an annual loss of about $50,- 000 to grain growers in Illinois. In order to reduce this enormous loss in Illinois and twelve neighboring states the Federal Government, cooperating with the State Department of Agriculture and other agricultural agencies, is striving to find and destroy every common barberry bush now in existence. Last summer the federal inspectors found hundreds of the harmful barberry bushes growing in the parts of McHenry county covered in a survey. Bad weather early in the fall caused the survey to be suspended until this summer. It is hoped that the remaining portion of the county v/ill be completely surveyed within the next few weeks and every barberry bush eradicated. Mr. Brakensiek and Mr. Ham were here last summer and are acquainted with conditions in this county. Mr. Brakensiek states that during the short time they have been here several barberries have been found. Three hushes were found growing on the grounds of the State Fish Hatehery, The manager was very anxious to have these bushes removed as soon as he was informed that they were barberry bushes. ^ Anyone knowing of bushes which they think might be common barberry are urged to report them to the Federal Agents, Box 276, McHenry, 111.
