Smut Experiments.

On Thursday, Oct. %, in the after
noon, some of the experimental
wheat plats at the Agricultural Elk
pertinent Station farm will be treated
for smut. The following methods
will be used:
I.-Vitriol with barrel and sack.
2.-Vitriol with trough.
3.-Vitriol by sprinkling.
4.-Vitriol by long soaking.
5.-Formalin by sprinkling.
6.-Formalin with a trough.
1.-The Jensen hot water treat
ment.
The object of this experiment is
to compare the first three methods
now in use among the farmers with
other methods, some of which will
probably prove more effective and
better adapted to our wheats.
In order that the first method
may be exactly like the one used by
our farmers, we have asked Mr.. Ed.
Kitzmiller to superintend the treat
ment, and he has consented TODD so.
Any farmer or other person inter
ested in the smut question is invited
to be present at the w. A. Q. barns
on Friday afternoon.

Catarrh Of the stomach has long been

sometimes with sour or Watery rlslnss,

stomach could be seen it would show a
Shiny, inaamed condition
The cure for this common and obsti
nate trouble is found in treatment
which causes the food to be readily. tho
roughly digested before It has time to
ferment and irritate the delicate mucous
surfaces Of the stomach. To secure a
prompt and healthy digestion is the one
necessary thing to do, and when normal
digestion is secured the catarrhal condi-
ton will have disappeared.
According to Dr.. Harlanson, the safest
and best trea tment is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed Of Diastase,
septic aPepsin, little Nux. Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the name
OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. and not

De-fect safety and assurance that healthy

WOMAN S COLLEGE
VERY POPULAR.
Two Students from Distant
States Turned Away
Yesterday.

Dr. James Nelson when seen down on
Main Street yesterday afternoon was very
happy, and YET almost broken hearted.
He was in this strange psychological
state on account of the Woman's College,
over which he presides. He was happy
because of the great measure of success
which the Woman's College is having,
and heart-broken, for he had just been
forced on account of lack of accommodate
lions to turn away two young ladies
who wanted to attend this session.
One came all the way from Texas. She
was accompanied by her mother who
begged DR.. Nelson to take her daughter
In. But he just could not, and so the girl
had to go away She will probably go
to Hollins. The other young lady also
came from a distant StatN 3
DR.. Nelson says his BoNl Of Trustees
is in earnest. A committee on site for.
a new and far larger college has already
been appointed. Mr.. wv. s. Forbes is the
chairman. His committee will look about
for some suitabl lot. get the option on It
and report back to the board This im-.
iportant meeting of the board will be held
early In November
DR.. Nelson declares that In three years
he could have 500 young ladies from
North, South, East and West at his
school had 8 he the accommodations for
them He is literally begging the tr,Is-
tees to give him more room. He says
they. are g,cdng to do now and right
