Treatment for Smut
So many inquiries are coming in to
the experiment station for methods
of treatment for smut in grain that
simple method would prove effective
if given here in connection with the
use of good seed.
There are 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 infect
tiouS disease in wheat as is measles
in the human family. Threshing
machines, as we'll as seed wheat
which is infested often carry smut
from farm to farm.
To treat seed wheat for smut, Sc
cure from reliable druggist good
formaldehyde sometimes called for
maline.' With each pound OF this
liquid mix 81 gallons of water
Spread the wheat on tight floor,
sprinkle on the solution and shovel
until every kernel is molstened. Let
the grain stand a few hours before
sowing. If sown the same day, the
machine will need to be set to
SOW about one-tifth more than the
ordinary amount. Ii it not to
be sown on the same day the
grain should be shoveled over until
dry, OF spread thinly on the floor to
prevent heating. One pound of for
will treat ~ to 100 bushels
the cost being only few cents per
bushel treated.
Smut of oats and barley is success
fully treated in the same way, using |
more liquid to insure its soaking ,
under the hulls and destroying 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 solution.

ANSWER TO SOME PERTI.
NENT QUESTIONS
How Rust Has Affected Seed
Wheat and Remedies
That Every Farmer
Should Know

The following bulletin from the
Minnesota Agricultural College En-
neriment station on the rust in
wheat is OF greatest interest to Colo
rado farmers this spring, who are
considering the question as to the
advisability of using shrunken wheat
for planting;
Minnesota is on the verge of seed
wheat famine because of the raraseS
of rust last season. The damage
done by the rust was so general that
it is only occasionally that we hear
of locality that has been fortunate
enough to produce good. sound grain
AS result many farmers are at a
loss to know what to do for seed
wheat for their spring sowing. The
experiment station is receiving many
Inquiries ioi lLloi iihatioh ieS"NHe
the probable prospects and outcome
if damaged seed is used, and the ad-
visibility of getting a change of seed.
There is probably enough good
seed wheat in the state to SOW the
six million and a half acres annually
devoted to this crop. but this supply
is not properly and widely distribu-
ted and the people generally do not
know of the whereabouts of the sup
ply. Hence, in certain cases. the
most will have to be made from what
is at hand and available. Strenuous
efforts are now being made to get
farmers in touch with the best seed
and methods of securing ii. The
majority of wheat now in the hands
of the farmers and from which this
seed wheat must come Will grade
only NO. or less. The weight per
bushel OF this wheat is much below
the standard (6o lbs per bu), but
there is good wheat in this quantity
OF lightweight wheat, which, if
graded out would weigh up nearly or
quite to the standard, and when sep
arated, would grade sufficiently high
to warrant its use for seed.
Rust Not PreventabIe.
pr;o -
tions which confront the farmer on
the seed wheat problem. These are:
Will the rusted wheat if planted.
infect the succeeding cropI The pre-
yailing idea being that rust. like
smut. is carried from one crop to
another by using infected seed. But
such is not the case. Smut and rust
are as different as sheep and goats.
Methods OF preventing smut have
been found. but as yet no method has
been found for the prevention OF
rust. 1t tlourishes only under the
most favorable conditions of moisture
and sunshine. If these conditions
are not favorable it is bad season
for rust. Rust comes from the out
side and under these favorable con-
ditions spreads rapidly from plant to
plant and from field to field. 1t re-
quires only short time in which to
mature the spores the seeds J of
the rust plant. AS above stated, NO
preventive treatment has vet been
found but certain precautions, such
as rotations of crops and burning all
stubble and other rubbish will tend
to abate the wide spread os the
spores.

The attitude of the Holy See towards the po-

Christian Democracy, might serve as a warning to
the advocates of Catholic party in America To
many devoted Catholics such movement seems

Is II not surprisingly strange that it should be
necessary to urge men to avail themselves of the
greatest, the dearest, the most sublime privilege
that Is vouchsafed unto the sons of men? Is II not
all but incomprehensible that men endowed with
faith and with reason should have to be reminded
OF the blessed duty of receiving into their hearts
the God of ineffable love and peace? Such. how
ever seems to be the case and Holy Church who
IN her divine solicitude would save men almost
against their will, enjoins upon the faithful the
duty OF receiving Holy Communion at least once
year, under pain of mortal sim In order TO render
more definite and certain this sacred dutv. sbo

Editor W, S. Dalton of the Crisis is reported as
saying in speech at Federation hall. this city,
recently, that the churches can't be expected
to help the laboring man, inasmuch as they are.
with very few exceptions, under the domination of
the oppressors of labor. If Mr.. Dalton will watch
the columns of the Catholic press he will doubtless
soon materially modify this view Catholic editors
as well as Catholic priests fail not to recognize
that their chief concern. as disseminators Of the
Gospel, is the welbeing of the masses.
Ii Catholic priests do not make practice of
discussing the labor problem frequently from the
pulpit, 1t is, no doubt because they believe that
justice may, and in the end SHALL be made to pre-
vail by the effeacous incubation of the doctrines
OF Christ as taught by the Church, without the
expediency of specific reference to the industrial
evils as they present themselves today
