CHINAMAN CAUSED SURPRISE.
Governor Of Shantung insisted on Paying
indemnify TO Missionaries.

Rev. DIR. George w. Chalfant. OF
Pittsburg. Pa. has received n letter
from his son, Rev. Frank ii. Chalfan!,
who is stationed at Wei Helm. saying
that he had waited on the governor
of Shantung Province and proposed
to remit all claims for indemnity on
account of the destruction of property
by the Boxers" the money to rebuild
the burned missionary buildings at
Wei Helm station having been nearly
all raised in Pittsburg and Allegheny.
The Governor of Shantung refused
to entertain the idea, saying: NC
sir. That would not be fair. The
French and Germans ask twice as
much as is right, and the American
missionaries must have their money"
The Governor then handed Mr.. Chal.
fant one-half the amount of the loss,
and proposed to pay the remainder
soon. Most of the missionaries had
RENTED their claims.

ty-fve thousand OF more dollars
for go acres Of land in Union
county, besides considerable
sums for litigating the question
to convince Union county that
her ambition to move the asy-
lum to that locality could not be
gratifed. The land named cost
the people of Union county no
moro proportionately than it
cost all other taxpayers of the
state. Because Eastern Oregon
pays considerable taxes and pro-
duces much is no reason why
Union county, falling to secure
hhe branch asylum, should try
another and more doubtful ex-
pertinent, by attempting to move
the Agricultural College or a
part thereof from Benton county
to the land named in Union
county. Sacl a movement, too,
would undoubtedly involve the
state and maay of her people in
long and expensive litigation,
which might not cad short of
the supreme court of the United
States. And all this, simply to
convince the people OF Union
county and the governor that
the Agricultural College was not
intended to be divided and be-
come inefficient and useless.

To Prevent Snut OH Oats.

A preliminary bulletin on the
prevention of smut OF oats. has just
been issued by Prof. E. F. Pernot
of the Agricultural College. 1t
says many methods have been tried
for the purpose Of killing the spores
which are attached to the seed oats,
and while some have been found
good, others are almost worthless.
An experiment in testing the best
and simplest method of sterilizing
seed oats, to destroy smut spores,
was conducted this year at the col.
lege. Seed which was known to
produce smutted oats, was treated
by various methods and sown in
experimental plats.
The hot water method, if proper.
ly performed, is very effective, but
if improperly or csrelessly done
there is danger of alternating the
spores instead of destroying them.
The water in this method is simply
vehicle to convey heat, it has no
other virtue, so in order. to obviate
the necessity Of SO much apparatus
and trouble in drying the seed, one
sample was treated with hot air in
a laboratory hot air sterilizer. The
temperature was raised to 200 de.
grees F. and maintained for ten
minutes; although this ternpera-
ture was too high, the table shows
that sample H germinated 80 per
cent of the seed. The plat sown
with this seed contained only one
head of smut, which may have
come from one kernal of acci-
dentally untreated seed. In the
Willamette valley there are many
hop and fruit dryers, which could
be used for treating seed grain by
this hot air method at slight cost.
The seed could be treated at any
time and stored until seeding sea-
son, but it must be remembered
that seed which is treated for smut,
without their having been treated
in like manner, because the meshes
of the fabric offer an excellent place
for spores to lodge, SO that if the
sacks were not treated, reinfection
Of the grain would occur.
In treating the oats, they should
be spread in thin layers on the
dryer trays, in order that all may
receive the same exposure to the
heat. If they were placed in the
heater in sacks full, those in the
center would receive little or no
heating; or if they were placed in
heater in large piles, it would be
necessary to stir them continually,
as 10 roasting coffee or peanuts, in
order that they may receive equal
exposure to the heat.
. It is a we'll recognized fact that
in all psychological work that
there is nothing known to be more
efficient in destroying germs and
spores than dry heat, so that the
advantages of the hot air methods
are:
First. That it completely de-
stroys spores.
Second. That it penetrates to
