Elizabeth Notes
From Eibert County Banner.

From Etberf County Hammer.
Miss Minnie Mitchell started on Tues
day morning for the eastern part of the
state, where she will teach a winter term
of school.
Miss Vera + otis of Denver recently
commenced a seven months term of
school in the Flint Wood district, north
west of town.

ated with William Stein in the saloon
business, has retired, and will engage in

A. l.. Carlson, living west of town. had
the misfortune to lose his house and it's
contents by fire Friday evening of last
week. Mr.. and Mrs. Carlson were both
absent when the fire started, presumably
from fire in the kitchen stove, and
when they arrived the flames had gained
such headway that it was impossible to
check them or to save anything. The
loss is estimated at about 5000, with $3.50
insurance. Mr. Carlson had just sent
some money away to his daughter in
Sweden, to pay her passage here, so he
considers that much saved.

Proper Treatment for Smut.

A few weeks ago Manager Maxwell of
the mill called attention to the prevail
ence of smut in some wheat crops and
advised growers to use the bluestone
treatment to eradicate it. Since then a
circular has been received from the state
agricultural college recommending a
simpler treatment, and one which is
claimed to be more efficacious than blue
stone. The letter is as follows:
81 would not recommend the blnestone
treatment as it is somewhat difficult to
treat wheat for seeding very large acre
age. ] believe the formalin treatment
fully as effective and much easier per-
formed.
use one pound of formalin-which is
40 per cent water solution of formalde-
hyde gas to 40 gallons water. Do not
mix the solution until you are ready to
treat the wheat, since the formalin is
quite volatile and quickly loses its
strength.
"a good place to treat the wheat is on
the barn floor swept very clean, or on
good hard ground surface covered with
n canvas.
'rhe wheat should be spread out from
4 to 6 inches deep. With garden
sprinkler apply the water solution after
thoroughly stirring up the formalin
when placed in the water. Thoroughly
sprinkle the wheat, then shovel with a
scoop shovel and sprinkle again, and so
continue until you feel satisfied that
every kernel has received some of the ap-
plication.
''Then shovel your wheat into conical
piles of about 10 to Is bushels. Cover
the piles with gunny sacks or anything
to keep out the air and keep in the gas.
Let the wheat remain in this manner
from two to four hours.
"Remoye the covering and spread out
the wheat to dry. In six to eight hours
the. wheat will be dry enough to seed in
an ordinary drill with force feed
"Of course the farmer should seed Il
little more since this treatment causes
the seed to swell and you cannot seed as
many kernels in given space. For in
stance, if planning to seed 75 pounds to
the acre before treating | would seed 80
pounds to the acre after treating.
81 have used this method for some
time and believe it to be quite effective

orders, don't sit down and brood over
your symptoms, but fly for relief to Elec

Here is good fellowship story that is
going the rounds: Isn't it the truth ?
Give man a ten-cent cigar and he will
beam all over and love you for six hours;
offer him the ten cents with which to
buy it for himself and he will throw it in
your face. Give man pass to show
and he will call you good fellow in all
the languages at his disposal; offer him
the money TO buy ticket and he will
call you fool. Ask man to your home
to take "pot luck" and he will jump at
the chance; give him 81, and tell him to
get good meal at cafe with your com
pliments and he will knock you down.
The dollar is mighty but it isn't warm.
Nothing chills hospitality and good-fel-
lowship more than touch of cold metal.

INDICTMENT
Found Against Representative Her.
mann, of oregon.

Washington, D. c., March 3-The
grand jury of the District of Columbia,
at a special session today, found an
indictment against Representative B.
Hermann, of Oregon, for violation OF
section 5,403 Of the revised statutes
of the United States, which reads as
follows:
Every officer, having the custody
of any record, document, paper, or
proceeding specified in section 5,403,
who fraudulently takes away, or with
draws, or destroys any such record,
document, paper, or proceeding, filed
in his Office, or deposited with him,
or in his custody, shall pay fine Of
not more than $4,000 or suffer i'm
prisonment at hard labor not more
than three years, or both; and shall
moreover forfeit his office and be for
ever disqualified from holding any Of

The indictment was found on the
testimony of certain general land Of

that department.
lnasmuch as Hermann is member
of congress he is exempt from any
apprehension or arrest, except for
treason, felony or breach of the
peace, and as the chime with which
he is charged, comes under none of
these, it is not likely any attempt
will be made at present to apprehend
him.
