Denver, April s.-The News this

IF nobody else will test the validity
of the pretended appropriation bill

morning, the News will test it. No such
dangerous and illegal procedure as
marked the pretended passage of this
bill should be tolerated. II opens the
door for every kind of jobbcry and
robbery of the people.
THE governor should not think of
signing the bill. He cannot afford to
set such precedent He must think
of the future as well as of the present.
II the speaker and president of the
Senate can sign bills in blank and per-

regulation is a necessity, and to ignore

Experiment Station at Fort Collins,

sinking smut in wheat. In the eXper
iments very smutty seed was used and
in the growth from the grain without
treatment eighty per cent of the prod
net was diseased. Where the seed was
sprinkled with copper sulphate, one
pound of sulphate to four gallons of
water. the disease was restricted to
one-half OF one per cent. Grain soaked
in a solution of corrosive snblimate,
one pound to fifty gallons of water,
did equally well. Sprinkling with cop
per sulphate is recommended to be the
best remedy. Place the grain in II
bin large enough so that the grain can
be shoveled from one side to the other,
Sprinkle the solution on with COM
mon watering pot and at the same
time keep shoveling the grain over
and over When the kernels are all
wet the treatment is finished but great
pains must be taken to see that the
work is thoroughly done. The grain
should not be treated until ready to
