THEanuouncementb by Gov. McCreary
of his candidacy for Congress will be
gladly received by hosts of democrats,
who think he is the one man who can
lead us out of the wilderness. The ex-
cellency of his past services both to the
people aud to the party is an earnest of
what may be expected of him in the
future and guarantees him hearty
support from all who admire honesty,
integrity and faithfulness in public
official. Gov. McCreary is not man to
rush in without viewing the field and
counting the costs and the fact that he
has seen fit TO yield TO the solicitation
of friends from all over the district, is
proof that he is sure Of the nomina-
ton.

THE GRAIN SHUTS.
How the Most Destructive of Them
Are Caused and How to Prevent
Them Most Effectively.

I'm time of peace prepare for war, is
a trite old statement that is also true of
other matters. For instance, it is now
inadyance of wheat sowing time, and we
are just in receipt of a most valuable
publication from the department of ag~
riculture, Farmers Bulletin" No. Is,
entitled THE Grain SHUTS" Winter
wheat growers who secure a copy will
have time to fully post up on this mat
ter before the need of utilizing the in
formation comes. The bulletin shows
that the sinking smuts, or bunt, at
tack the kernels of wheat, filling them
with mass of fetid spores. These
smuts cause great damage, but are cas-
lily prevented by treating the seed.
Sinking smut of wheat can be pre-
vented by soaking the seed ~ hours in
a solution made by dissolving one pound
of commercial copper sulphate in "a
gallons of water and then immersing
the seed for five minutes in lime-water
Loose smut of wheat attacks the
whole head and converts it into mass
Of loose, dusty spores. 1t causes CON
siderable damage in some localities and
is more difficult to prevent than other
smuts.
Loose smut Of wheat can be pre-
vented by soaking the seed in cold wa
ter for four hours, allowing il to stand
four hours more in wet sacks, and then
treating for five minutes in water at 1872
degrees.
1t will pay wheat growers to care
fully preserve the foregoing methods
until wheat sowing time arrives. The
old-fashioned method Of negIecting
such things has now become too ex-
pensive TO warrant its continuance. II
IS estimated that the annual loss from
cat smut alone is over $4,000. 900. and
this could be easily saved by adopting
the methods of treatment described in
this bulletin, which also advises that
seed dealers should now begin the prac-
tioe Of treating all cereals (grain seeds)
offered for sale, both 10 increase the
yield and TO prevent the introduction Of
SHUTS into localities where they are
