necessity, but there is q great difference
between stimulants and intoxicants. A
stimulant that arouses the life, causes

brings health and vigor, is great bless

But healthful stimulant is one of the
rarest of all things Beef is the best

good blood. Combine this with a gentle
stimulant, and we have what debilitated

been most perfectly effected by the cele-
brated Prof. Rose, and Hoptonic, which
is unquestionably the finest of all recent
discoveries, is the result. Hoptonic

TO PREVENT SMUT IN SEED WHEAT.
The Northwestern railroad has issued,
through General Freight Agent Nc
Cullough, little pamphlet of great
interest TO farmers, dealing with the
question of smut in wheat, which has
caused losses of thousands of dollars.
Hitherto the smut was confined to the
soft varieties of spring wheat, but it is
now making its appearance in the
Dakota or Phyfe wheat. II is stated
Lat the smut can be stamped out by
using solution of blue vitriol, COM
monty known as bluestone. From one
to two pounds of the vitriol are TO be
dissolved in gallon of water. The
seed wheat is placed in coarse bags hold
ing from fifty to sixty pounds, tied
loosely and placed in the pickle from
five to ten minutes, turned over often
enough to allow every grain to be thor
oughly soaked, and then lifted out and
allowed to dry. It is stated that this
treatment will infallibly dispose of fsmut
and cause the wheat to grade much
higher, Six pounds of vitriol will be
sufficient for ton of seed wheat.
