Preventing Smut in Grain.

Smut grows from minute fungous
spores clinging to the seed grains, so
that if there are no live smut germs upon
the grain sown, no fungous threads will
grow into the plant tissues of the crop,
and no smut spores will be fruited upon
the resulting grains of wheat or oats,
according to ]. II. Panton of the On
tario station. BY stirring the seed grain
Of the smutty grains will float out and
may be SKINNED off. The best remedy
is to soak the seed grain in hot water ut
1872 degrees Il, which not only destroys
the smut spores, but hastens the sprout-
ing and improves the vigor Of the result
ing crop. A basket or bag through
which the hot water passes to the seed
Is lifted up and down in a barrel or tank
of water which must be kept ut from
100 degrees Il to 1876 degrees + for fif-'
teen minutes, when the grain is dipped
into cold water to cool, and then spread
out to dry. Solutions of chemicals may
injure the terminating power of the
grain, but they have long been success
fully used for the bunt smut of wheat,
and the loose smut of oats. Where
grain drill is to be used, washing for a

Growing Tomatoes by the Aero.

It is difficult to say which is the best
single variety of tomato, there are SO
many good ones, says S. A. Cook in the
Orange Judd Farmer. The Paragon has
always given satisfaction, but in the
home garden it is a good plan to plant a
small and Il Seeding. The seeds should
be sowed In cold frames a month or six
weeks before the plants are wanted for
planting out. The plants should be ready
by the time frosts are over. There are
several ways of growing tomatoes, but
plan which is liked very much by many,
and especially when not more than an
acre is planted, is as follows: After
blowing the soil thoroughly and then har,
rowing in a half or whole ton of some
good fertilizer, check off the land 5 by 5
feet, and at each intersection of the fur
rows drive down q stout stake IS inches
in the soil, leaving 3 feet above. In
triangle about this stake set three plants,
~ or Is inches from the stake. Before
the plants fall over encircle them and
stake with a broad, strong band, drawing
the plants in just little. If the band il
placed about Is inches from the ground
it will be sufficient to hold up the fruit
from the ground; but if the vines grow
very large a second band may be put on
later, but one is usually enough. Each
hill should yield, at the very lowest
if the land is good, a peck of toma toey
At by feet there will be 1742 stake:
or hills, and with three plants to the
hill it will require 1926 plants per acre
If preferred, two plants may be set to
the stake, and the hills reduced to a dis,
lance of by 4 feet, using 1856 plants
per acre.
