SMUT IN WHEAT.

Smut in wheat is caused by fun
gus. Spores terminate in contact
with the terminating plantlet, send
ing thread-like stems into the minute
wheat plant. The smut plantabsorbs
the food designed by the hostfor the
grain, and its spores fill the inside
of the ripe kernel. Usually dis
eased or "bunt" kernels are larger,
darker in color, but weigh less than
healthy kernels of wheat. The
threshing machine breaks many of
these bunt kernels, scattering the
spores throughout the mass of
wheat. thus infesting the seed for
the next year. This gives the grain
slightly darker color, and pc
culiar, disagreeable odor.
We have no smut-proof varieties
of wheat. Whenever wheat infested
with smut is planted we can expect
a smutted crop. Smut does not
come from the variety, and is as in
fictitious disease in wheat as is
measles in the human family.
Threshing machines, as well as
seed wheat which is infested, often
carry smut from farm to farm.
Treatment. Secure from a reli-
able druggist good formaldehyde,
something called 'formaline." For
each pound of this liquid use 40
gallons of water. Spread the wheat
On tight floor, sprinkle on the So
luton, and shovel until every kerr
nel is moistened. Let the grain
stand a few hours before sowing.
# sown the same day, the machine
will need to be set to sow about one
fifth more than the ordinary amount. |
i it is not to be sown the same day, |
he grain should be shoveled over
Until dry, or spread thinly Oh the
loor to prevent heating. One pound
i formaldehyde will treat 80 or 100
the cost being only a few
ents per bushel.

WAGE FARMERS AT. THE FAIR
Prominent Men Planning to Help
Workers See the Great Exposition.

| Prominent Men Planning to Help
Workers See the Great Exposition.
Wage earners Of America are to see
the Worlds Fair by tens Of thousands
under the auspices Of the National Civ
ic Federation. A new bureau Of the
Federation has just been established at
st. Louis upon the Worlds Fair
| grounds. Back Of the movement are
Grover Cleveland. David R. Francis
Andrew Carnegie, Cornelius N. Bliss
and others. Plans are making to have
vast number of the wage earners Of
the United States see the Worlds Fair,
the most glorious spectacle Of the age
and the most influential factor In the
education Of the American citizen.
The bureau is in charge of Miss Ger
trude Beeks, secretary Of the Fedora
tons welfare department, Of which
Mr.. H n. Vreeland, head of the street
railway system Of New York city, is
chairman. The bureau headquarters is
in the east end of the Palace Of Trans
portation, on the ground floor. The Elk
position management is in hearty ac-
cord with this movement on the part
of the Federation to induce the large
manufacturers and other employers Of
labor to provide ways and means for
the wage earners Of America to visit
the Exposition. President Francis is
displaying personal interest in the IN
dertaking by affording the Federation
every facility for the contamination OF
its efforts, and in this connection he
has directed Theodore Hardee, assist
ant to the secretary, to cooperate with
Miss Beeks and Ralph M. Easley,
chairman of the Federation's executive
council, in every possible way.
The Exposition management has also
equipped this bureau with clerical as
sistance and full supply of Worlds
Fair literature. The bureau will be
used as headquarters for all wage earn
ers coming to the Exposition under its
auspices. The aim of the Federation is
to make it feasible for the largest pos

pot by responsible persons and con-
Quoted to suitable lodgings, where they
will be treated fairly.
There viii also be furnished, free or
charge, appropriate itineraries tndicat-
Ing the points of interest to be seen
within limit of one week, which Il
about the average time each party will
spend here. It will also indicate the
objects of special interest to various
craftsmen In their particular lines, 90
that they may devote as much time
as possible to the objects OF peculiar
interest to them. These and many 9TH
er efforts viii be made to help all wage
earners to enjoy the benefits OF this
great Exposition comfortably and at an
expense within their means.

Smut of oats and barley is sue
cessfully treated in the same way,
using more liquid to insure its
soaking under the bulls and des-
troying the germs there. The
grain drill, the .threshing machine,
wagon boxes, grain bins, or grain
bags infested with smut spores may
be cleaned by wetting with the solu-
ton.

FAVORABLE FOR OYSTERS
1uHlish Royal Commission Reports That Danger of Typhoid Infec-
 ton Has Been Exaggerated.

The English royal commission on sewage disposal has issued a report that should tend to allay the frequent "oyster scares" caused by the assertion that she'll fish are polluted and made unfit to eat by typhoid germs. They are of the opinion that there is not at present exact knowledge warrant. Ing such sweeping measures as i. he compulsory purifcation of weNvage before discharge, for there is nots ing, they state, in the ap, N, earance ol shellfish to distin. suish those which have been ex. rosed to sewage contamination from those which have not been so exposed.
 The denial of the validity of meteorological examination as a ytest is very important, for this sl,st has rested on the assumption that the bacillus coli communis, or other allied organism, does not normally occur in the oyster. Over 1000 oysters taken from the put estwaters and from beds obviously liable to pollution were examined and the bacillus coli was found in nearly all of them, from whatever Ia ying they were taken, though as a rule a very much smaller mum. bcr of bacilli was found in those from pure than in those from polluted waters. The commis' si )ners say:
 s'If it should be seriously con |. nded that the mere presence oi bacillus coli, or colilike microbes. in an oyster should condemn it, few oysters would probably es c; pe condemnation"
 Concerning the possibilities oi the communication of disease by slellfish, they state that there is prima facia probability that al times living typhoid bacilli nigh bc conveyed by shellfish to the con surner and produce enteric fever experience confirms their view that the extent to which the ill ncss is actually conveyed canno' A~ deternined, the present stat. cf knowledge on the subject ac1 making it possibls to make an ao ssJsse numerical stassn5st

INDEPENDENTS
 BABY CONTEST.

Here is tn proposition and the rules governing the contest:
 There isf a handsome $25.00 solid gold ilocket with diamond setting ana solid gold chain, on display af the Palace Jewelry store, to De given away Decem- Der 24thl 1904, to the baby boy or girl finder two years of age, who wins the highest number of votes yas the prettiest and sweet est baby. Now the baby that is not pretty is surely sweet, and if the wee tot be a little cross at times, beauty must offset this badness. Fond parents at least are expected to think their ba- bies are both sweet and beauti- ful, and so they do. But to set tie once for all the claims of the under two, and put at rest this rivalry of mothers and fathers, the Independent has inaugurated a contest that is to be determined by that cherished right, popular ballot, and in accordance with the following rules:
 BABY PRIZE CONTEST RULES.
 First-No baby that has reach ed the age of two years Nov. 1, 1904, is eligible to this contest, nor shall any employe or party connected with this paper be eli gible to vote.
 Second Every issue of the Daily and Weekly Independent from November 1 to December "A, will contain a ballot entitling the holder to one vote in this contest. For every dollars worth of job, work, advertising and subscription paid for between these dates a coupon good for ten votes will be issued, but no cou- pons will be issued for sums less than $1.00. Coupons will not be sold, and will only be issued for job, ad and subscription busi- ness, but extra copies of the In- dependent at 2 cents per copy, each containing one ballot, will be sold at this office.
 Third-All votes must be sent to this office and will be de- posited in a lock box, to be opened at 8 o'clock each publication day and counted. The daily issue of that afternoon will contain the total of the several candidates and the public will thus be kept informed of the voting each day.
 Fourth "A committee of three good business men will be select ed to canvass the ballots the of Dec. "A and announce the winner. All ballots must be at this office by II a. m., Dec. "A, 1904.
 Read the rules carefully.

There are seven main features Of heart disease, viz: CD Weakness or Debility; (2) Rheumatism or Neuralgia; (3) Valvular Disorder; (D Dilation: (5) Enlargement; (6) Fatty Degenera- tion; CD Dropsy.
 Documentary evidence will prove thousands of so-called "incurables'' have been absolutely cured by Dr. Miles New Heart Cure. =
 Patients often have no idea their dis ease is heart trouble, but ascribe it to Indigestion, Liver Complaint, etc.
 Here are some of the symptoms: Shortness of breath after exercise. Smothering Spells. Pain in Chest, left Shoulder and arm. Discomfort in Lying on one side. Painting Spells Nervous Cough. Swelling of Feet and Ankles. Paleness of Face and Lips. Palpitation. Nightmare. Irregular Pulse.

DAME FASHIONS DICTATES.
Pretty Notions in Trimmings That
Are in Favor with Her
:. Fair Devotees.

An object of great attraction is
gold fillet for the hair. Some of them
are just a single plain band of gold.
so becoming to well-shaped head.
Others are carved with ears of wheat
or with laurel leaves or mistletoe.
1t is pretty fashion, though not a
new one, to make the skirt with a Sc
ries of gaugings, or gathers, below
plain hip piece; this is becoming to
figures inclining to stoutness. though
thin women do better to have their
skirts fulled right into the waist line.
1t is in matters of this sort that a
good tailor studies individual figures.
Chenille is used as a trimming on
millinery and jet is sparingly intro
duced. The elongated toque certainly
finds more favor than one would have
supposed, as it is unsuited to the style
of the average face. To be effective
the hair beneath must be taken up
more tightly at the sides than is usual
ly done; otherwise 1t Is not in the
least becoming.
Some of the daintiest forms of but
tons are the hand painted porcelain
ones of various sizes. framed in metal
or jewels. These are either round or
oval, with only a slight curve to the
top, are richly painted by good artists
and may be either decorated with
floral or landscape designs or reflect
the features of the wearer's prettiest
ancestors in miniature form.
After so many years of matching"
everything one must expect to meet
some bizarre strikings-out in the op-
posite direction. There is, for in
stance, an exceedingly smart linen
gown that came across the water. 1t
is pale ecru embroidered in red,
but. very oddly indeed, the red on the
jacket is warm crimson, while that
around the skirt hem is vivid scar
let, nearly harsh brick color A lot
of fluffy white ruffles relieve the jack
et. but nothing quite harmonizes that
contrast in embroidered reds
Thus far almost every woman is
asking this question at the stores:
Have you anything new in the way
Of shirt waist suit materialS?" The
question hardly needs a reply. All
that is necessary is a glance at the
quantities of new and novel things for
this very purpose. Fancy mohairs,
brilliantines and siciliennes immedi-
ately commend themselves because Of
their dust shedding propensities.
They come in plain colors and in the
prettiest little checks, stripes and
broken stripes. Among wooden mate
rails the fancy batistes in small. neat
checks and shepherds plaids have al
most the appearance Of silk, so soft
and beautiful are they.
