This was continued until the grain was
almost saturated-at least until every
kernel had thin coating of water over
its surface. After sprinkling and stir
ring in this manner the oats we're spread
out to depth of five or six inches and
stirred three times during the following
twenty-fouf hours, at which time they
were dry enough to sack up. AS in the
case of hot water treatment the sacks
must not be neglected. They should be
thoroughly wetted inside and out. We
found that it took about one half gallon
of the liquid to wet one bushel of oats,
or, in other words, our mixture of eleven
gallons Just treated twenty-five bushels
Of oats.
The formalin may be purchased at any
drug store at cost of from go cents to
81 per pound. 1t is a:ially sold in two
ounce bottles and, in fact, this is one of
the most convenient fofmg IL which to
purchase it, as it is an easy matter 10
make up solution of the proper strength
when the substance is weighed out ac-
curately in small quantities.
1t will be seen that the cost of either
of the above methods is very small, so
far as cash outlay is concerned. The
formalin will cost only about l cent per
bushel. while in the other treatment
there is no cost outside Of the labor and
fuel. At the same tire many farmers
object to taking the time and trouble to
treat their seed, even when they know
it to be infected with smut. For those
who do not wish to treat large quantities
of seed, the practice of treating only a
few bushels may be adopted, the seed
for the following year being saved from
the product of the treated seed. In this
way one can free his grain from this
pest at q very small cost

There has been an unusal demand for

Mining Items.

Fl. N. Gates, Of Sioux Falls, has been
appointed receiver of the Crown Hill
Mining company.
It is reported that the Hebert Broth,
ers, owners Of the Clara Belle mine near
Oreville, are negotiating for the Alex
ander & Marsh mill at Four Mile. The
Clara Belle has been making an excel
ent showing of late running on two
stamp Tremain mill, and the owners are
desirous of enlarging mill capacity.
While in keystone last week Mr.. f.
A. Gira, of the Cuyahoga Mining COM
pany near Spokane, stated to reporter
Of the Keystone Recorder that they will
soon put in hoist aud engine at the
mine, and as soon as the tests being
made on their ore determine the best
process of treating they will begin the
erection Of mill.
The Deadwood Independent learns
that big strike has been made ON the
Newark mine, four and half miles west
of Custer. The strike is reported to have
been made on the 100 foot level and O
large vein of the rich ore is rapidly be.
ing opened. The company is composed
of Chicago capitalists who had spared no
expense III the development work. The
news of the strike is very meager as the
company are keeping it very quite. The
ore which was discovered is in large
quantities and no doubt, but what a
second "Holy Terror" is in store for the
company.
LEASED.
The Golden Summit mine, one of the
richest gold prospects ever found in this
section of the country has been leased
for term of three years by Mr.. Beayer
Of Cedar Eapids, Ia, a stockholder in
the Tycoon mine at Keystone. The
Golden Summit mine produced some
thing like 100000 in gold in the early
days and, although, much money has
been spent no great depth was ever at
tanned. Depth is essential before a
body of ore can be depended on as to its
permanency on ledges in the southern
Hills. When depth is reached in the
Golden Summit it Is very likely to rival
the Holy Terror for the ore was just as
rich on the surface as that ofthe famous
Terror mine.-Hill City News

The Bee has no interest whatever
in the republican squabble about the
forest ranger supervisorship. That is
a republican matter so far as the in
dividuals are concerned. But The
Bee does know, and it is the testi
mony of people to whose interest it is
to take note of such things, that il
will be hard to replace Bill Bremen
as supervisor of the forest rangers
A fifteen minutes talk with Mr.. Bren
men on the subject will convince any
unprecedented person that he knows
his business and the people interested
know that he attends to it. Mr.. Elk
Representative Faust may have pull
enough with Tom Carter to get Mr.
Brennen's job, but such change will
not be in the interests of the public
welfare. Mr.. Faust is a good news
paper man. but what he does not
know about forests and forest fires
would fill large book.

1t is significant that at the grand
rally Of game wardens which took
place at Helena Monday, neither Bou-
cher ofAltyn, the putative preserver of
game for Flathead county, nor Scott,
of Deer Lodge, the father of the son,
were present. Mr.. Boucher having
been appointed for his legal ability,
probably considered it unnecessary to
leave his milk ranch, and Father
Scott did not care to undertake the
trip. 1t was the first meeting of the
wardens under the new law and was
for the purpose of acquainting the
deputies with each other and for the
dispensation of harmony among them.
Each deputy was supplied with a set
of blank books for use in his duties
and he received explicit instructions
concerning the special provisions OF
the new game law. It was especially
impressed upon the deputies that the
enforcement of the law would be
without fear or favor.

Those who thought that Charles w.
Nortdstrom of Seattle would be hang
ed because all the courts of the coun-
try from the district court up to the
United States supreme court said he
should be hanged, have another guess
coming. Nordstrom was first convict
ed and sentenced some ten years ago.
He engaged J. Hamilton Lewis to
save his neck and that eminent lawyer
and politician has succeeded in the
endeavOr up to this time. A few
days ago the United States supreme
court affirmed the judgment of the
lower courts in the case and every.
body thought it was all off with Nord-
strom. But it seems that the last
Washington legislature monkeyed
with the law dealing with the execu
ton of criminals so that none of
them. including Nordstrom, can be
hanged under it's provisions. Thus
Nordstrom will continue to linger for
while on this mundane sphere. His
soul will doubtless depart to the
realms of the beyond sometime in the

'..eeting Relative to the Consolida-
ton Of Mining Companies.
Notice has been given by William
G. Rockefeller, secretary of the Anal
gamated Copper company, that a spe.
cial meeting of stockholders will be
held in Jersey City at 10 a. m. on June
6, to take action upon a proposed in
crease of the company's capital stock
from $75,000,O0O to $155, 100000.
The stockholders will also pass up
on the advisability of acquiring the
stock of the Boston & Montana Con-
solidated Copper and Silver Mining
company and of the Butte & Boston
Consolidated Mining company, either
for cash or by issuing therefor stock
OF the Amalgamated company.
There will be submitted at the
meeting the report Of special COM
mittee, appointed by the Amalgamated
board Of directors, to consider the
terms Of the acquisition of the
stocks of the Boston companies, to-
gether with such recommendations as
the directors may make in this re-
gard.
On the basis that four shares of
Amalgamated will be given in ex-
change for one share of Boston &
Montana, 100000 shares of the new is
sue will be required in the transac-
ton. On the basis that one share of
Amalgamated will be given for one
share of Butte & Boston, 100000
shares of the new stock will be utiliz.
ed in this way. These requirements
would entirely absorb the new issue
of 100000 shares of Amalgamated
stock. leaving no provision for the &C.
QUESTION of the minority interest in
Anaconda or the absorption of other
properties. However. these matters
can, of course. remain in allegiance
until late date, when a new issue
of Amalgamated capital can be pro-
vided for, says the Financial News.
It has been the manifest policy of
the Amalgamated management to
proceed along the line of issuing new
stock at certain intervals for the pur-
pose of providing for the amalgama-
tion Of certain groups of mines.

Why the Snow is not Black or Red

Why is the snow white is a
question frequently asked. Be-
cause black snow would be dang
erous, so would red or yellow.
These are "warming-up colors, y
and they change the suns rays
to heat. Such snow would soon
melt again and prove a very poor
protection. But white snow
throws back the sunlight iD just
the form in which it receives it,
and thus the snow can be long on
the ground. Throw dirt on the
snow, and it's dark color quickly
makes it eatits way in whenever
the sun shines on it. After a
[snowstorm, once let the horses
feet mingle the dirt of the road
with the snow and sleighing will
soon he over.-Professor S. c.
Schmucker, in the December
Ladies' Home Joursal.
