Official Paper of Dakota County
County Agent's Field Notes
I1Y C. II. YOUNG.
Although a bit late, we cannot
help but realize that at last spring
ia upon us. The remaining few
daya before we can get into the field
should be busy times with the farm
ers, getting manuro hauled where
this is possible, machinery repaired
and painted, harness mended and
oiled, seed wheat and oats cleaned
for Bowing and Beed corn tested as
to germination. Some of the most
profitable days work done by the
fanner are often those spent in do
ing these oft neglected jobs.
A few days ago tho writer visited
the farm of Mr. II. Biormann and
found him fanning some of the best
oats he has ever seen. These oats
and also tho wheat are to be treated
'for smut before seeding time. Mr.
Biermann saya that this treatment
ach year is paying him well. While
it is sure that some years the oat
smut is not so troublesome as at
others because of climatic conditions.
nevertheless, there is no year that
it does not pay well for the labor
and expense involved, and many
years big returns are secured.
Don't judge your oats or wheat
seed as to their freedom from smut
but treat before sowing. Often
from five to ten bushels per acre are
lost from Btnul.
'I'l.n fynnlmnnf i ur.tt.l- c rvti
pint of formalin to forty gallons of
water. Treat tho seed in wagon bed
or on granary floor. Wet the oats
thoroughly by Bprinkling the solu
tion on a little at a time as they are
shoveled in a pile. Shovel the pile
over once or twice to insure all be
ing wet. When the box is. full, or
a good pile treated, cover "carefully
with a blanket or tarpaulin for ten or
twelve hours, After treatment
shovel nil grain over one or two
times to hasten drying. Two men
in a few hours can treat enough for
fifty acres. Tho cost of labor and
formalin should not exceed one and
one-half cents per bushel.
Because of difiiculty in drying,
grain should not bo treated for smut
until just before sowing, Care
should bo taken in sowing, to make
sure that tho seed feeds fast enough
to insuro agood stand, and with oats
it is best to sow a peck more than
usual to allow for swelling.
Those desiring assistance in smut
treatment should notify this ollice.
We are now in touch with two
lubor bureaus. Those desiring farm
laborers might secure them from
one of these places.
Through the co-operation of the
Agricultural Engineering Depart
ment of our State University we will
be able to assist those having drain
age projects. Application for this,
help should be made as soon as pos
sible. For Sale

Practical Education
While ourschools are being con
ducted very satisfactorily, we be
lieve many of the problems in math
ematics are not practical. Why not
have problems useful in everyday
life? For instance like the following:
If it takes a boy twelve years of
age twenty-two minutes to bring in
six small sticks of wood, a distance
of seventeen feet, how long will it
take him to travel a mile to see at
circus show procession?
A woman placed four pounds of
cold meat and eight slices of bread
before a tramp. At the end of
twenty minutes how much was left?
A housewife sold a coat to a ped
dler for a vase worth nine cents, a
pair of boots for a china dog worth
six cents, and a vest for a glass bottle
worth four cent3. How much did
she recejve for all and how much
over $9 clear profit did the peddler
make?
A man .pays thirty cents for three
pounds of- evaporated apples and
gets a $14 newspaper puff for send
ing them to an orphan asylum.
Does he gain or lose and how much?
Two females, each thirty years of
age are sitting on a sofa, Neither
of them has a husband. -One is
worth two hundred thousand dollars
and the bther teaches a district
school. Which is the unmarried lady
and which is the old maid?
A man winks his eye an average,
of 30,000 times a day and a woman's
tongue makes 78,000 motions every
twenty-tour hours. At this rate
how long will it take the man to
catchjup?
If it costs $200 for a young lady to
ler.rn painting, and she turns out
two landscapes worth forty cents
apiece, what is the net profit?
It take twenty blows of a hammer
in the hands of the woman to drive a
tenDennv nail three inches. She
hiisses the nail twice where she hits
it once. How many blows does she'
strike in all, and how far can her
voice be heard when she strikes her
thumb?
