Treating Wheat for Smut
06e College Takes up the Work

and much smut this year is the conse-
quence, With such short soaking as is
usually given it is not possible to pene-
trate the smut balls and, as Mr.. Smith
says, they are broken in the seeder or in
handling and resmut the wheat that has
been treated.
That the ordinary method of vitrioling
is not effective as treatment is shown by
the accumulated experience of eastern
Washington farmers. In spite of the
hundreds of pounds of vitriol that we're
used this year by the wheat farmers, Whit
man county lost more than half a million
dollars from smut, and the state of Wash
ington lost not less than two and a half
million dollars
MR.. KTTTZMILLER'S EXPERIENCE.
Ed. Kittzmiller's experience this year
is instructive. Mr.. Kittzmiller has large
farm three miles north of Pullman and is
one of the most careful farmers in Whit
man county. Last fall he treated his seed
wheat very carefully with vitriol. He
used one pound of vitriol for every FIVE
bushels of wheat.
He times every sack for full FIVE min
utes. In spite of all this, over 1000 bu.
OF his wheat were so smutty that the wheat
was docked two cents per bushel. Pro-
badly IS to 20 per cent of it stayed in the
field as smut.
The great lack of uniformity of results
which the farmers get with vitriol is not
we'll understood as yet. 1t is probably
due to the fact that the seed which is
treated is i'll many cases clean and free
from smut. When farmer once gets a
good clean crop and plants seed from it
he will likely get no smut whether he
treats or not. Thus oftenti1nes clean
crops are credited to the vitriol when
there was no smut on the seed to kill.
However, a very smutty threshing ma
chine may come along the next year and
resmut all his clean wheat and then his
troubles begin again.
Vitriol can be used in such way that
it will kill the smut. To do this it is
necessary to use very weak solution (I
pound to ID gallons of water) and to treat
it for very long time ia hours). The
swelling of the wheat, which results with
our soft wheats and the long time neces-
sary for the process, makes this method
prohibitive for the farmer who grows

r. Kent Beattie, of the agficul-
tural college, takes issue with Liilis
Smith OH the smut question, Mn
Beattie giving his views in the fol-
lowing article:
/ can not agree in full with Mr.. Smiths S
method of treating the wheat. 1t is,
however, step in the right direction.
II IS much more effective to treat the
wheat loose in trough than to dip it in
the sack. / believe, however, that the
trough should be more than IL inches
wide, IL inches deep and II feet long.
Such narrow trough, it is true, was de-
scribed in the press bulletin issued by
the experiment station this spring, but
further experience has shown that a
larger one is preferable. One at least II
feet long, feet wide and foot 9 inches
deep, holding at least 20 bushels at one
filing, is much more convenient. 1t can
then be used as watering trough when
not in use for the treating of grain.
vIrRIoL SOLUTIONS TOO STRONG.
Mr.. Smith suggests the use of 10 to rs
pounds of vitriol to the 90 gallons of water
which his trough contains. This is from
two to four times as strong as is ordinarily
employed by the farmer. With these
strong solutions it is not possible to soak
the wheat for very long time or it will
be injured. Now, every wheat grain has
on one side groove. If you cut across a
kernel you will find that this groove is
T-shaped and that it runs into the wheat
kernel. 1t is here that many smut grains
lie hidden. It is not possible by soaking
/. one minute or FIVE minutes or even for 20
minutes, todrive the air out of this groove
and to wet the smut that is hidden there
in The use of strong vitriol for short
time simply covers the grain with chrys-
tails of vitriol and these tend to retard the
growth of the smut plant for time.
1.-THE weather is favorable when the
wheat is planted it soon terminates and
the wheat growth gets the start of the re-
tarded smut. Thus it escapes being
Smutty. If, however, the weather at the
painting season is unfavorable and the
wheat lies in the ground long time, the
utriol is all dissolved away by the soil
and the smut is again active. Such was
The case last fall Our cold, dry autumn
caused the wheat to terminate very slowly

Skim these off. Continue till the trough
is nearly full, being sure hhat there is
enough of the solution to Keep the grain
covered. Let it stand at least an hour
and half, and, better, two hours. Then
shovel out the wheat and dry it on clean
floor or piece of canvas. IF the floor or
canvas has ever been contaminated with
smut, clean it by scalding it with water.
When the wheat is dry put it in clean
sacks. Scald out your seeder with boil
ing water. Do not let this treated wheat
touch live smut or'it will again be con-
taminated.
WORK OF EXPERIMENT STATION.
1t will not be necessary for the state
grain commission to take up the smut
problem as Mr.. Smith suggests, for the
state and national law makes it the duty
OF the agricultural experiment station to
investigate the causes of and to seek to
discover remedies for fungous diseases.
1t has been working pom smut for some
time. Its first publication on the subject
was in bulletin s, published in 1893, which
ouAlCtlH 10 now FAtHausle' 3tte greater
part of the work has been done during
the last two years. Last spring a short
bulletin upon the subject was issued and
another is now in press.
We invite every farmer interested in the
smut problem to write freely to the Wash
ington Agricultural Experiment station,
Pullman, Washington and tell us his
difficulties and successes. We will do all
that we can to help anyone who may APP
ply. The station is beginning smut
campaign which will be continued until
the smut is practically all driven out of
this country. We would be glad to hear
of successful or unsuccessful methods in
use anywhere.

LUKE DILLON IS A PRISONER
The Irish Nationalist Leader Is
Confined In the Penlrentiary
at Kingston, in Ontario.
BEEN THERE ALMOST TWO YEARS
Sentenced Under the Name of
Karl Dallman.
Dillon and Two Others Were Convicted of
Attempting to BLOW Up Lock of the
Weiland Canal, April 21st, 1900. and Sem
fenced to Life imprisonment.

Buffalo. N. Y, March 2S.-The Ex-
press this morning published a copy
righted story to the effect that Karl
Dallman, one of the three men sentenced
to life Imprisonment in the Kingston,
Ont, penitentiary for attempting to
blow up lock in the Welland Canal,
on April 2lst, 1900, is no other than
Luke Dillon, the Irish Nationalist
leader and famous as close friend Of
Dr. Cronin, who was murdered in
Chicago
The three men were captured soon
after the explosion, which wrecked "a
portion of one of the Canadian canal
locks. Two Of them-John Walsh and
John Notin-were identified, and their
records traced. The third man, who
gave his name as Karl Dallman, was a
mystery. Ii was known that the name
of Dallman was fieticious, but the
Dominion police and detectives failed
to identify him.
Two years ago Dillon was teller of
the Dime Savings Bank of Philadel,
phia. 1t was then that the bank turned
over its accounts to the Union Surety
Guaranty Co, and the announce
nent was made to Dillon's friends
that he had gone to Europe. A year
later the report was circulated that
he had been drowned in Ireland.
The plot to blow up the Welland
Canal failed. The men Numbered in
lowering the dynamite into the locks,
placing it in such position that the
gates stood the shocks. Had it sue
ceeded,a large area of tho surrounding
country would have been flooded, and
the loss of life probably would have
bpan great
