In ovaries in the normally staminate spikelets of Buchloe 

 dactr/loides, Jewell Co. (Miss Dahl), Trego and Ford conn- 

 ties (Kellerman and Swingle). 



In the early part of last year while making some germina- 

 tion tests preliminary to infection experiments with corn smut 

 a culture of Tilleiia Buchloeana was made on a glass slide in 

 a moist chamber from material collected in Jewell Co. the 

 previous summer. This year I have not succeeded in getting 

 the same material to germinate. Unfortunately no drawings 

 of the first were made and only the following note, *• after 

 nine days, No. 7, germination good, some show the charac- 

 teristic conidia of Tilleiia.^*

Attempted germination unsuccessful.
