Treat Oats and Barley with Formaldehyde Dust 
Most Effective Dust Control of Smut 
Dry dusts, which contain penetrating gases are rapidly replacing the wet grain treatments formerly 
recommended as the best control. The cost per acre is comparatively small, not exceeding 12 cents. 
Formo-Dust is rapidly and easily applied. It liberates the gas rapidly enough to kill smut spores 
without injuring the grain in the process of germination. Grain should be treated at least 12 hours 
before sowing. It is not injurious to stock and treated grain, if left over after sowing, may be fed with 
safety. It requires 2% to 3 ounces of dust per bushel of grain. A 5-lb. can will treat 25 to 30 
bushels. Price, per 5-lb. can, $1.50.
