BOY GETS MEDAL FOR REPORTING A BARBURY BUSH
LaVerne Unger, son of Ralph Unger, Route 1, Cicero living 2 miles southwest of Cicero has just been awarded the medal of the Rust Prevention Association for locating and reporting an outlaw common barberry bush which sureads the destructive black stem rust to wheat, oats, barley, and rye. LaVerne was a freshman last year in the Cicero school. He learned to know the common barberry bush in the 8th grade when the teacher brought one to show the class and in while working on the farm which his father rents from Dr. Little, LaVerne located several common barberry bushes growing in the woods. He reported the bushes to county agent E. C. Parker and he in turn reported them to the state leader of barberry eradication at Purdue University. Mr. W. E. Leer, the state leader came to investigate. LaVerne took Leer to the location but they found only a hole where the bushes had been dug. The boy then undertook to find the transplanted bushes. They were found on the J. M. Kinder farm where Edward the son, had set them as an ornament around the house not knowing that they were the outlaw common barberries. Mr. Kinder was ~lad to have them removed vicinity identified them as barberries. Mr. Leer was so well impressed with the work of LaVerne Unger that he recommended him for the medal and it has now been awarded to the boy. Mr. Leer suggested that citizens of Hamilton County should be particularly careful not to transplant wild bushes from the woods unless they are very sure that the bushes are not the outlaw common barberry. Thousands of them have been killed in the county and more are constantly coming up from the seed left in the ground by the old bushes already destroyed. Last week agents of the United States Department of Agriculture used 750 pounds of salt to kill more than 300 common barberries which had sprung up since the county was surveyed in 1927. This work is nart of the campaign being waged in 13 central grain states for the eradication of the common barberry. Since 1918 more than 18,000,000 have been killed and the annual loss from black stem rust has been reduced from 57,000,000 bushels yearly to less than 10,000,000.
