Smut in Wheat.

Prof. L. j. Burrill. of the Illinois Industrial
university, gives the following scientific expls-
nation Of emut in wheat and the causes which
produce if;
There are two differnt kinds of "smut'' in
wheat. In one the affected heads of ripening
grain are not noticeably different from the sound
ones, but the kernels somewhat abnormally large,
are filed with black, pssty mass having bad
odor, instead of Che white starchy material of
good grain. This is often called 'bunt' to dis
tinguish it from the kind much more commonly
observed in the United StateR east of the Rocky
Mountains, In the latter case the diseased heads
never show the characteristics of the ealthy ones,
but at first can be recognised by being more
slender with the inter-spaces between the kernels
and their chaffy covering more distinct. Soon
these latter become black with sooty, powdery
substance, and all vastiges of the kernel DIS
appear. In both cases the immediate agent in
producing the effects observed, is fungus OF
low vegetable growth, living and developing al
the expense of, the wheat. But the intruderf
are specifically distinct, and each has its peculiar
mode Of lifeas well as kind of injury. In tbs
great wheat regions OF the Paclfc coast, the
first kind is by far the more common, and prac
tical experience has demonstrated that washing
the seed with ''blue-stone' solution (sulphate o.
copper, or blue yitriol) prevents the bunt. Tht
explanation is, that the minute spores of tp'
fungus are attached to the wheat grains, and thi
| treatment Of the seed before sowing kills th'
spores. These latter are somewhat visoid, ant
are not likely to be carried by the air, hence tn
crop from the cleansed seed escapes the injury
But it is probable that the smut spoken of b.
our correspondent is the latter kind, and TO
this the same treatment of The seed will have M
effect. The powderey spores are readily dis
seminated l. the air, and being produced il
/ immense numbers, some of them are likely i
| find Judgement upon the wheat plants at the time
and uRder the conditions favorable to thei
termination and growth. Though the youn
wheat plants do not show the effects OF the para
site developing within its Tissues until after tn
heads 'shoot," still it 10 pretty certain that thi
fungus always starts with the terminating grain
and lives continuously within the plant fror
spring Tor autumn) until near harvest time
The sooty mass st length produced is non
other than the new crop of spores, or the fruit
of the fungus.

Two peoples conventions we're to

tickets in the field, the one being a
delegate convention fathered in Aber-
deem. the other mass convention
called by residents of the fiorthern town.
sbips. Ere the time for assembling ar
rived, however, a fusion asagreed upon
and delegates appointed to represent
various townships which had no dele
gates present. Under this arrange
ment ffty-eight votes were mustered
and the work of nominating was pro-
ceeded with, resulting as follows;
Sho3riff-James Ringrose of Aber-
deem.
Treasured. G. Stewart of Rondell.
Register of Deeds--S, G. Hedger OF
Detroit r
Judge of Probate--E. a. Bacon OF
Groton.
County Attorney--M, J. Gordon Of
Aberdeen.
Commissioner Sd district-C. 5,
Swift of Aberdeen.
Between this ticket and the one
nominated at the regular convention
we can see no material difference SC
far as the modus operandi is concerned
the one being the result of combinations
as much as the other and neither being
run in the interest of the taxpayers
One is the ticket Of the more astute
politicians, gotten up By unjust com
binations and packed caucuses; the
other is the work OF a few honest men
who deplore the degeneracy of the re.
gular convention and desire to teach
the schemers lesson, also Of a great
many more who would have run the
former convention in their own inter
est, in the same manner it was run, i
they had the power. But they lacked
support and so endeayored to ingra-
tiate themselves into the good graces
Of the people that they might use them
as tools. While we deeply deplore the
current Of county politics, we can con,
scientiously take sides with neither
ticket unless future events convince us
that either has claims upon the sutf-

THERE arc definite inlioatiSns that
leading prohibitionists all over the
country are rapidly abandoning the
third party movement and coming to
the support Of Blaine, in order to pre-
vent the success of the democratic
party, which would certainly not be an
advantage to the temperance cause.
