killing DAT Smut-UsefnI Methods
and a Powerful Germicide.
One of the first crops to be planted Is
oats, 1t is estimated that nearly 10 per
cent of it is destroyed by smut Pre-
ventive measures should be generally
used. 1t has been shown by careful ex
periments that the Jensen method. or
the treatment of the seed with hot wa
ter. gives entire immunity from smut
The treatment consists in keeping the
seed oats for ten minutes in water at
temperature of 1i3 degrees This re-
quires means for heating water. a bar
rel. thermometer ana sack to hold
bushel or two of oats. It is essential
that the water be kept up to the proper
temperature and that the immersion
should not be continued much under or
beyond the time named After being
removed the seed should be spread on
floor and stirred until cool and dried.
This method requires no chemicals
and little expense, but does involve
considerable labor. Complete prevention
has been secured with less labor. but at
an expense of about cents per bushel
by the use of a per cent solution of for
malin. or. as it is chemically termed.
formaldehyde The seed. being spread
on floor, is sprinkled with this solu
ton and turned over until every grain
is moistened If the solution be applied
with sprayer having very fine Doz-
zle, less of it will be required and the
cost will be less. -Formalin is power
full germicide, and it will do its work
if only enough be used TO cover the seed.
This substance is not poison in the
sense that corrosive sublimate and paris
green are poisons. No harm can come
from its use as recommended in this
article If any one prefers to soak the
seed for one hour in formalin solution,
this can be done at less expense and
will be equally effective. In this case
the solution should be made but one
fifth as strong. or one part of formalin
to 500 parts of water As in the hot
water method. it is best to put the oats
in sacks for convenience in lifting them
in and out of the solution. Farm jour

In the enthusiasm of youth there is

The origin of the Shorthorn cattle in
the valley of the Tees and in the hands
of such farmers as the Ceilings tells the
value of environment and persistency
along well defined lines The evolution
of the Poland China hog in the Miami
valley under the encouragement of the
Cincinnati packing industry shows how
one leading purpose brought many
strong men to the work of producing
the animal that could most cheaply con-
