MR. EDBroR An important question
to farmers is, what is the best mode Of
preparing wheat for seed 2 and, is there
any sure preventive for smut in wheat 2
There are many theories concerning
smut, and some receipts gwen saidto be
in part, or entire preYentives.
Some recommend washing seed wheat
in blue vitriol water and we have reason
to believe since the experiments with Wit
rial wash have resulted III a great meas
ure in cleaning the wheat of smut, that
the vitriol must destroy the vitality Of
smut, for although the seed Of smut will
not germinate independent Of the wheat,
it will grow as parasite. If so the mi
mute seed must attach itself in some way
to the growing wheat, and the only way
is by the seed passing up in, or through
the sap vessels Of the growing wheat
stalk, and as fungus, taking the place Of
and destroying the kernels Of wheat.
Hence we see the reason why a smut head
so nearly resembles true wheat as.tO only
show its deformiiy at little distance by
its darker green color, until the wheat is
ready 10 harvest. It seems that he soft
er the variety Of wheat, the more liable
to smut. This being true, may we not
reasonably concluded that the riper the
seed wheat the less likely to smut and
the greener the wheat when cut, the
more sap Of course will be in the stalk
and the more likely to dissolve the smut
into its fine particles during the sweating
il the stack or NOW, and make it difficult
if not impossible to destroy the smut by
any wash, without danger of destroying
the germ of the wheat at the same lime.
It seems to me that if farmers desire
to grow wheat Of soft instead Of ainIy
surface, they may lessen the smut evil by
allowing the wheat intended for seed to
get fully ripe before harvestipg' then
iuSE before sowing. wash in strong brine,
so strong as to swim all the smut and
other impurities. There will be no need
of much stirring so as to break or disolve
the smut kernels, the object being to COM
pei the smut to swim; skim off all, what
ever rises to the top and swlms, then dry
sufficiently to sow, taking care 20 have
clean sacks for the wheat after washing.
and the crop therefrom will be almost if
not quite free from smut. l have tried
the foregoing with good success both in
Illinois and Nebraska. J.F. B.

How to Make a Set OF Very PFet

pretty small flower in peach, blue or pink,
or even green. We have seen both prints
and muslin with flowers sprinkled over
the pattern. Choose these, and cut cut
the flowers and tack them in a row round
your collar and cuffs; get some white
braid, and then stitch the braid round the

For the Nebraska Farmer.
Farming as q Vocation.

A great deal has been said, especially
during the last few years, in regard to
the exalted and ennobling character of
farming as a vocation. Out of all this
talk a very pretty theory has grown, and
gained much credence and popularity
1t is often said, the owner and tiller of
he soil is the true aristocrat of the land.
He alone of all classes and professions,
owes none Of his success in life to the
'tricks of trade," or the favor and pat
ronage of his fellows. The compact is
between him and the bounteous Giver of
good, who promptly .recompenses faithful
industry. This, then, is the most inde-
pendent, the most dignifed, as well as the
purest and most natural vocation in which
men may engage. Such is the theory,
and a very fine one it is; too fine, it
should seem, for every day use, as we are
apt to set it aside from our common call
culations, and only give it an airing on
state occasion, when we wish to show our
to mere vulgar prejudice
Ordinarily. when the merits of some par
ticular individual are under discussion,
we hear the expression, ooh, he is a COM
mon sort of man only farmerm Now,
as farmers daughter and a farmers
wife, we claim the privilege of being as
sensitive as we please on this subject, and
of frownlng severely upon any offender
who shall drop this unlucIly phrase in our
presence. Many persons give utterance
to this sentiment without in the least
that they are perpeuating an
excellent joke. Perhaps, after all, it is
no joke If so, the truth ought to be
known and recognized at once. We
ought to look the matter squarely in the
face, for there is enough moral courage
in the world to accept almost any well
demonstrated fact. If there be any
known law, moral or physical, by which
farmer is incapatiatede for enjoying the
society of men of culture and refinement,
or for being himself man of culture and
we have been in the dark too
long.
But no such law exists! The highest
ideal which has been cherished of the
dignity of the husbandman's vocation, is
the truest. The theory is right; it is
only one practice that lags shamefully in
The rear! Some will say, ''after all. this
is trivial subject with which to occupy I
The columns of valuable journal, devo-
led to objects of practical utility" But
this is not matter Of little consequence.

About Usage Orange Fences

About Usage Orange Fences.
Mr. EDITOR: 1t being an acknowledged
fact that timber, especially for fencing
purposes, is very scarce and not sufficient
to fence our vast and beautiful prairies.
The more thoughtful are turning their at.
tention to this important subject by way
of putting out groves of timber, and
many are using their able pens to try to
impress upon the minds of others the i'm
portance of engaging, at an early day,
in this, of all other enterprises, perhaps
the most important to Nebraska farmers.
Hence we see in almost every number of
our valuable FARMER one or more arti.
cles written on this subject. This is as it
should be, and l am greatly surprised that
farmers generally take so little interest
in a cause Of SO great a magnitude to
themselves. $3.50
There is another enterprise of scarce
ly less Importance than that of raising
timber, that appears to attract bat little
attention even from the most enterprise
ing farmers; mean live fencing. All
agree that we must, sooner or later, re-
sort to some substitute for timber for
fencing material. Yet, very few are
making any effort to even experiment
with any of the numerous substitutes
recommended by agriculturists. Every
one appears 20 be waiting for his neigh
Dor to so to the trouble and expense of
experimental knowledge, and after some
one has spent years Of toll and large
amount Of means in experimenting, and
some one thing has proved a success, they
TOO will plant and at a comparatively
triAing expense secure good, substan-
tial and durable live fence. Now, Mr..
Editor, this is not the way for Nebraska
farmers to realize the great advantage
that would result from an immediate

that will endure successfully our winters
anu other mishaps that the more tender
plants fall an easy victim to.
If farmers generally would spend
little of their leisure time in experiment.
ing with something that would probably
make fence, and communicate through
the columns of the FARMEK; we would
thus very soon be in possession of the
much desired information as to The best
material for Eiue fence.
