Press bulletia S4 of the Kansas Sx-
perimeat sUtioa has the f oUowing to
my oa the smut of oats and wheat:
Srsut of Oats. The spores gain an 1
entrance during the germination of
thosoed. If the spores sticking to the
surface of the grain cam be killed the
disease cam be almost wholly prevent
ed. To kill the spores the seed is
soaked in hot water or ia .certain
chemicals. The hot-water treatment
ts the cheapest, but on small quantl-.
ties it is aot so convenient of applica
tion as the other method. To apply
the hot-water treatment, soak the seed
oats ia water heated to a temperature
of 133 degrees Fahrenheit The grain,
ia about half-bushel, emantitlee, is
placed ia a sack, wire netting cage, or
other closed receptacle allowing free
access of water, and plunged in the
water, which should be ia a large tub,
kettle or vat It should be kept In the
water, being meantime rotated and
plunged, about tea minutes. A ther
mometer should be at hand constantly,
for if the temperature is too high the
seed will be iajured, aad It too low
the smut will aot be killed, 'it is a
good plan to dip the seed first into
water about 119 degrees to120 degrees
Fahrenheit, so that the hotter water
will not be so much cooled by the
process. After treating the seed is
spread out oa a floor to dry. The sec
ond method for treating oat smut is to
soak the seed for twenty-four hours in
a solution of flower of sulphur, one and
one-half pounds In twenty-flve gallons
of water. Care should be taken to
completely wet all the grains. The
solution should be kept in a wooden
vessel.
Stinking Smut of Wheat Wheat is
elected by two smuts. Oae the stink
ing smut or bunt remains within the
grata aad is observed only when the
covering to the grain is broken, when
the interior is found to be a maw of
black dust or spores. This can be'pre
veated by the hot-water treatment as
described for oat smut or it can be
treated as follows: Soak the seed in a
solutioa of copper sulphate (blue-stone
or blue vitriol) for twelve hours and
then for five or ten minutes in a solu
tion of lime. The solution of copper
sulphate is made by dissolving one
pound of copper sulphate in twenty
four gallons of water. The lime solu
tion Is made by slaking one pound of
fresh quick lime in ten gallons of
water. .The copner solution must be
kept in a wooden vessel.
Loose Smut of Wheat The second
kind of smut on wheat is the common,
conspicuous sort which makes the
whole head a black mass. To prevent
this kind of smut soak seed four hours
ia cold water, set away in the wet
sacks for four hours more and then
treat with hot water as described for
oat smut hut soak at 132 degrees for
only five minutes. The seed Is likely
to be injured some, so one-half more
seed should be used than would other
wise be required.

The defenders of the Ben Davis
apple are finding much comfort in a
little lacldeat that occurred at Paris at
the close of the fruit exhibit The
American apples were sold at auction,
and the man who purchased them re
sold them st a profit For one barrel
he received 10. and on inquiry It is
learned that this barrel of apples con
sisted of Ben Davis only. They sim
ply out-sold all of their competitors,
the said competitors being fruits that
at home bring a much higher price
than the Ben Davis apple. This is en
couraging news to the men who are
putting out great orchards of this va
riety. The well-developed Ben Davis
apple, grown in the southern parts of
Illinois, Indiana and Missouri, has a
beautiful color and good flavor, and is
bound to make a place for itself on the
French market
a
France, and, In fact all of the coun
tries of western Europe, offer a great
fleld for the sale of American apples at
a high price. The people in those
countries raise a great many apples,
but they are all of the summer and
fall sorts, aad are all gone by Christ
mas. The Europeans seem to have
failed to comprehend the possibility ia
the raising of long-keeping varieties.
As a consequence, the few apples that
And their way to the French market in
late wiater sell for an exorbitant
price. Last March. Mr. Dunlap tells
us, apples sold in Paris at 12.40 each.
The French are unable to keep fruit
for the reason that they have no cold
storage facilities and know nothing
about cold storage. We believe that
the mczr future will see an immense
trade ia long-keeping varieties of ap
ples. The cost of shipping a barrel of
apples f com Chicago to Paris is about
12, which includes tariff duties at the
Frenca port of entry.
a a
H. M. Dunlap says that the fruit
growers of Illinois should be highly
elated, at securing premiums from tne
French' Judges who awarded them.
The French awarding committee is a
remarkable institution. It consists of
twenty men, with theleadiag nomolo
gist of France at their head. These
men never appear In the exhibition
room except with tall hats, dress suits
and their badges of omce. He thus
describes the incident of the awarding
to Illinois of "perfect" on one of the
exhibits: "The French Judged every
thing in the fruit line oa the scale of
twenty points, and of course It was
difficult to get more than eighteen
points for the best displays, as- even
they could aot be generally considered
perfect One day. however, after a new
exhibit had been installed, the twenty
functionaries appeared. The head of
the line reached the table of the Illi
nois exhibit amd the stately procession
topped. The head seemed to be im
mensely pleased at the beautiful show
made by the Illinois fruit and ex
claimed. -Ah, messieurs, tres Jolie.

trunk Is girdled and the tree hilled. In
many cased the borer works oa only

If a large spat of bark la killed, the
bark and woods begin to rot amd are
soon filled with a mushroom growth.
This mushroom breaks through the
bark of the tree amd develops the fruit
ing portion oa the outside, or the
trunk. The fruiting part is white aad
resembles that which is seen oa rot
tea logs. If the 'tree dies the rot is
then supposed to be the cause of Its
death. The rot may hasten the death
of the tree, but a tree that is sound
and free from blemishes is very sel
dom if ever attacked by this rot''
The best thing to do Is to keep the
tree free from borers and other inju
ries., The land should be kept free
from grass and weeds and well culti
vated. Good, clean cultivation Is worth
more than all the washes and dress
ings that can be applied to prevent
borers.

In 1894 the division of vegetable
physiology and pathology of the
United States department of agricul
ture began experiments on an exten
sive scale to test the comparative rust
resistance of 'different varieties of
cereals, especially wheat This work
was carried on for three seasons, and
during that time it became apparent
that constant rust resistance is not to
be obtained among the ordinary bread
wheats known at present, though on
an average a few such varieties are
fairly resistant during a long period of
years. By the results obtained it was
rendered highly probable that this
quality must be bred into a variety
either by rigid selection of the most
resistant Individuals of that variety or
by crossing with resistant varieties of
other wheat groups and selecting from
the resultant progeny such types as
combine in the highest degree the
usual qualities of the bread-wheat
group with that of rust resistance.
It was also found that In regard to
other qualities than rust resistance, it
Is not possible to obtain varieties
which even approximate perfection,
and it is rare that many desirable
qualities are found in the same va
riety. It was, therefore, determined to
study thoroughly wheat varieties
themselves in all relations, and inves
tigate all associated problems, such as
drought resistance, early maturity,
yielding power, and other matters of
great economic interest

Repeated investigations into the
cost of raising corn and wheat have
shown that about S10 for wheat and
$11 for corn per acre are about as low
as they can be produced. Investiga
tions by the Wisconsin commissioner
of agriculture resulted in a report
from wnich we make the following
excerpt:
"The returns from 410 of the most
successful and prosperous farmers in
the state showed that the annual in
vestmentthat 43, the expense of la
bor, seed, taxes, depreciation of land,
machinery and horses used, feed and
incidental outlays amounted to $6.12
per acre for one crop of wheat and
,$7.91 per acre for one crop of corn. To
the" average yield the past six years
this is equivalent to about 35 cents per
bushel for wheat and 16 cents per
bushel for corn. If to this is added in
terest at 6 per cent on the value per
acre of the machinery and horses used,
the annual Investment and the value
of the land as estimated or given by
the fanners the expenses for wheat
would be Increased from $6.12 to $9.45
per acre, or from 35 to 54 cents per
bushel, and for corn from $7.91 to
$11.36 per acre, or from 16 to 27 cents
per bushel."

They are a great acquisition to our
water fowls, being hardy, easily rear
ed, excellent table fowls, good layers,
while their yield of feathers is nearly
as great as of any ordinary goose.
They are creamy white in plumage,
with a medium-sited deep yellow bill,
and legs of a reddish orange color.
They are large in size, and their ffaffy
feathers make them look still larger.
While swimming no other duck shows
so much body above the water as the
Pekin. The eggs hatch well, the duck
lings are easily raised and mature rap
idly. They are excellent foragers, and
can be easily raised where there is
-only sufficient water for them to drink.

An investigation recently inaugu
rated by the United States Department
of Agriculture promises if successful
to promotethe growing of tea. This
is the irrigation of tea at Pinehurst
the home of Dr. C. U. Shepard, near
Summervllle, S. C. The labors of this
gentleman have already produced in
teresting results. He has about fifty
acres planted to tea, which will when
in full' bearing produce each year
about 10.000 pounds. Last year it pro
duced about one-third of this amount
His investigations have bacn contin
ued long enough to make it manifest
that it any part of the South where the
temperature does not usually fall below
25 F., and never falls below zero,
tea can be successfully grown, but that
in order to make it a complete success
ia all cases irrigation is necessary. The
great obstacle ia the way of making
this industry atommerdal success is
the coat of production, and the readiest
means of reducing' this cost la to in
crease the yield per acre. If more
pounds per acre" can be grown, it means
a leas cost per pound for fertilisers and
for cultivation. Picking will also be
made cheaper because leas ground will
have to be traversed.
The need of irrigation to stimulate
the growth of foliage is shown by a
comparison of the rainfall at Summer
vUle with that of other tea-growing
districts. This is given in Dr. Shep
ard's report and shows that the precip-
itatkm during the tea-growing
at that point is only about one-melf to
one-qaarter of that of the tea-growlag
districts of ladla aad

for the same period varies from
HI laches. Through the eo-operatlam
of Dr. Shepard aar Elwood Mead, the
irrigation expert of the Oaten of Sn
periment Stations, plans hmvi
made for thVcoastractiom of a
reservoir sumefeat to hold
enough for a season's irrigatloa of oae
of the tea gardens. TWs reservoir will
ha filled from a well dug to a depth of
twenty feet and supplied by the under
flow of a neighboring stream. The
tea garden to be Irrigated is punted
in rowa five feet apart These rows
have a fall of four inches in one hun
dred feet which 'gives ample fall for
distributing water and for underdrala
age should this prove necessary. Im
order to test the relative merits of
surface and sub-irrigation, about one
half of this plat will be watered by
means of tile placed one foot beneath
the surface and laid down between the
rows. The distance between these
tiles will therefore be five feet and the
water will have to percolate laterally
two aad one-half feet to moisten the
ground around the plants. Another
portion of the garden will be irrigated
by surface furrows run on each aide
and one foot from the plants. In order
to test the difference between the
growth and productiveness of the ir
rigated and non-Irrigated portions a
small part of this garden will be left
unwatered.
, An interesting feature connected
with this extension of Irrigation is the
fact that a part of the farm on which
tea is being grown was formerly de
voted to the production of indigo and
was Irrigated. The production of this
crop finally became unprofitable aad
was abandoned, but the remains of the
ditches can yet be. seen.
It will probably require several years
to fully determine the extent to which
this form of agriculture can be ex
tended in the south. Even without the
aid of irrigation tea has been grown
with profit hut if, as Is believed, a
material increase can be made in the
yield through the addition of this
stimulus, and improvement in the
quality of the product as well, there Is
little reason to doubt that the time is
neap at hand when this country will
have made another significant addi
tion to its capacity to be entirely self
sustaining. Hones la tha North. Caatral DlvWoa.
The census report of domestic ani
mals. Just published, credits Illinois
with 238,650 horses, of which 233,807
are animals two years old and over.
Of the remainder 2,237 are colts of one
year and under two years. It is in
credible that the supply of colts under
one year is only 2,606, but it serves to
emphasize the predictions of. the
Farmers' Review relative to a horse
famine one of these days. Indiana has
a still smaller stock, according to this
report, the number of horses over two
years of age being 124,072, the number
of colts one year and under two, 1,448,
and of colts under one year, 1,737. The
Missouri horse statistics are not much
better, viz.: Horses two years old and
over, 124,952; colts one and under two
years, 1,064; colts under one year, 1,
247. Michigan's supply of two-year-old
horses is given as 100,410; -of colts
one and under two years, 823; of colts
under one year. 872. Ohio has 185,
683 two-year-olds, 1,502 one year old
and over, 1,811 under one year. Wis
consin 83,446 two-year-olds, 879 colts
one year and under two years, and 874
under one year. Iowa has 147,275
horses two years old and over, 2,667
one year and under two, and 3,362 colts
under one year, a larger number of
young colts than is credited to any
other state. Kansas is reported as hav
ing 81,687 horses two years old and
over, 1,182 one year old and under two,
and 1,778 under one year. Kentucky,
so famed for its horses is allowed 43,
757 horses two years old and over, 585
colts one year and under two, and 550
colts under one year. Minnesota is
said to possess almost twice as many
horses as Kentucky, or 82,994 horses
two years old and over, 976 colts one
year and under two, and 1,093 colts un
der one year.

It was generally thought that Eng

the world in the matter of horse rac
ing. But Tod Sloan went over and
showed them a new style, by means of
which he beat the best jockeys in
England. He sat much further for
ward than the English riders, aad it
has been found by actual test that a
rider so perched..besides. being easier
on the horse's wind, enables the horse'
to make from four to seven inches
longer stride than If he rode in the
good old English style. The result of
this is that Yankee Jockeys have had
a great run of engagements and the
English are training their younger

Bilious-Got a Gold?
'- You're bilious, got a cold, you have a throbbing sensation in your head, a bad taste in your mouth, your
eyes burn, your skin is yellow with dark rings under your eyes; your lips are parched and you feel ugly and
mean, as if you wanted to kick a lame infant or kill a canary bird. Your system is full of bile not properly
passed off, and what you need is a cleaning up inside. Don't continue being a bilious nuisance to yourself
and those who love you, but send out at once for a box of CASCARETS and work off the cold while you sleep.

Lydia E. Pinkliam'a Vegetable Compound can
always be relied upon to restore health to women who thus
suffer. It is a sovereign cure for the worst forms of female
complaints, that bearing-down feeling, weak back, falling
and displacement of the womb, inflammation of the ovaries,
and all troubles of the uterus or womb. It dissolves and
expels tumors from the uterus in the early stage of develop

subdues excitability, nervous prostration, and tones up the
entire female system.
