you should ever need a remedy for

Wednesday l.. L. Moffett came
from Billings to superintend the COM

considerably enhanced in efficiency.
The company now has double

to all sorts of wire trouble.
"trhe metallic circuit is the one now

Mr.. Motfett says that the building

morning.
Evidence Given by pr. Butler.
Dr. A. Butler gave Ills evidence Fri
day night He said that an eXamina
| tion Of the wound showed that it had
been caused by "a bullet of small cali
| ber, which had entered the head haif
an inch to the left Of the panchas Of
the left eye and about an inch above
that point "A protuberance had been
raised on the opposite side of the
head, just above the right ear which
4 was caused either by the bullet hav-
ing lodged there OF by a splintered
bone having been driven outward
from the skull. Death had umdoubted-
ly been caused by the wound. The
hair was singed at the entrance OF the
bullet, as though the weapon had been
held very close to the head when the
shot was fired. The body was still
warm when the examination was
made and rigor mortis had not yet
set in.

IT'S DEATH TO SMUT
treatment used by the
Wisconsin Expert
ment Station.
MEANS MILLIONS FOR FARMERS
How a Loss of Over 100000 900
Oats Alone Might Have
Been Saved.

The loss from smut in grains in the
cereal regions Of the west during the
past twenty-five years, has been far up
among the millions. In the state of
Wisconsin during the past season the
loss from smut in oats alone was over
six million of dollars. 1t is said by
those i'll charge of the experiment. i'll
destroying this disease at the state
experiment station of Wisconsin that
every dollar of this vast sum could have
been saved if the farmers had followed
the method of treatment discovered at
this station and now given to the public
without cost.
All growers of oats, all growers,
indeed, of all cereals subject TO smuts,
within "hearing distance of The Jour
nal will be interested in the work which
this station has accomplished. 1t is of
large Significance TO the grain interests
of the northwest.
Smut, to put it unscientifically, is
caused by a parasite which grows
within the grain plant. The prime
object of this parasite is first to destroy
the seed of the plant and then TO scatter
its contamination among healthy plants.
The spores, or particles of smut, are fine
like dust and are easily bowed from
plant to plant by the wind. One spore
will infect a healthy grain and the
spores developed in this healthy body
will then go on injecting other heads,
the spread thus being very rapid. The
smut spores do not live over winter in
the ground but are killed through frost
or inclement weather. The only way
the spores have of living and carrying
on their deadly work from season to sea
son is in the seed grain, From the
infected seed grain in the spring comes
the damage.
Smut in oats, as in other crops is an

farmers who tried the treatment on a
part of their crop during last summer.
In every instance the grain which was
treated according TO the directions of
the station was free from smut, while
the grain from seed not treated wa
overrun with it, and large quantities
were destroyed. Professor r.. A.
Moore, of the Wisconsin station staff,
who has written the bulletin, says that
the formaldehyd treatment will eradi-
cate barley smut and loose smut in
wheat precisely as in oats.
The results promise to be of large
value to the crop interests of the
