BEATING Shows He Is Boss.

Little Falls.-John Reitzka, farm
er living near Royalton of this county.
was brought into that village on the
complaint of his neighbors, who as
serted that Reitzka had been beating
his wife. When brought before the
justice, Reitzka said that he was God
and that his wife is the devil. He
says that as his wife is possessed
with the demon from the lower world,
1t is his sacred duty as God to pound
the devil out of her. He also said
that it. incidentally served to show
that he was boss of the house. The
defendant was fined $22 and allowed
to return to his home.

well, however, to give q DrleI outline
Of the methods Of prevention here.
Smut is a fun"ous growth-that is, q
low form of plant which lives on other
plants. 1t usually attacks the heads
Of small gr;sin, hiIing the place where
the kernels should be with black,
worthless mass. The black dust Of
which this mass is made up is COM
priScd largely of spores, which CORE
sponu to seeds of higher plants. These
spores become scattered over the seed
in thrashing and storing. In the
spring, when the grain sprouts, the
tiny thread UP through the stem to
the head, where it develops into the
familiar smut ball. Often these smut
balls are inside of hull that appears
perfectly sound from the outside, so
that the damage from smut is much
greater than would appear from SIM
ply glanc1ng over the field.
Any method of treatment which will
destroy the smut spores on the grain
will prove effective, although the smut
which is scattered in the field some
times infects the plants the next year.
When rotation is practiced, however,
this is seldom the case, as the oat
smut will not attack corn, nor will
corn smut grow on oats.
The selection of seed corn Is even
more important than the selection OF
small grain, since SO much less corn
Is required to plant an acre, thus per
hitting of much more careful choice
The most important point to be consid
cred in the selection Of seed ears is ma
turity. An ear that is not entirely ma.
ture will be light, the kernels will be
loose on the cob and have dull
chaffy appearance, and the germs will
be shrunken and the back of the ker
| nels wrinkled.
Such corn should not be selected fol
seed because the amount of food ma
terial stored in the kernel is too small
to give the young sprout much Of 8
| start. The germ IS also likely to be
weak from being frozen while still In
fact that an ear is not entirely ripe
indicates, too, that 1t belongs to
variety just little late for the local
fly. E@yss .srGs. '..s" =l-fT.5s.,a 49,. ~.
Ears that are not entirely ripe are
not nearly SO valuable for seed al
ripper, sounder ones, even If the latter
are not SO large. BY selecting only
ears of this early maturing type g
strain Of corn can soon be developed
which can be depended upon to ripper
in the particular locality in which it II
grown. s,.-n
Since the size Of the crop depends
to a considerable extent on the siz,
Of the ear the seed ears selected
should be as large as is consistent
with early maturity. Mere size o.
ear is not enough, however. The ear!
| should be we'll proportioned and no
too big around for their length, since
ears of this sort are late in maturing
and slow to dry out. The size of al
ear should be made up of corn instead
of cob This means deep kernels anG
relatively small cob. .- a..
There must also be the largest pos
sible amount Of corn in proportion K

FOOD FACTS
What an Nj. ID. Learned.

A prominent Georgia physician
went through a food experience which
he makes public:
"It a. my own experience that
first led me to advocate Grape-Nuts
food and l also know, from having
prescribed it to convalescents and
other weak patients. that the food Is
q wonderful rebuilder and restorer
Of nerve and brain tissue. as well as
muscle. 1t improves the digestion
and sick patients always gain just as
! did In strength and weight very rap
idly.
Il w& In such a low state that
had to give up my work entirely, and
went to the mountains of this state,
but tive months there did not improve
me; In fact, l was not quite as well as
when left home.
my food did not sustain me and
it became plain that l must change,
Then | began to use Grape-Nuts food
and In two weeks l could walk a mile
without fatigue, and In five weeks
returned to my home and practice
taking up hard work again. Since
that time / have felt as we'll and
strong as l ever did in M life.
AS a physician who seeks to he'll,
all sufferers. l consider it a duty K
make these facts public"

Alfalfa Not Credited.

Alfalfa is not yet credited for more
than half it's worth for making beet,
milk, etc. In his recent visit to the
Argentine country of South America,
Prof. Mumford, Of the Illinois Univer-
sity, has some good words on alfalfa,
which are just as applicable to this
country as to that. He says:
Alfalfa is grown in most parts Of
the Argentine cattle country, but not
to anything like the extent to which
it can be grown. It is known that 1t
will grow well for ten years and 1t is
believed q fair stand will be main
tanned for forty years if not pastured
too close. Modern machinery is used
in some instances in baling and stack
ing this crop.
A fine illustration of the value Of
alfalfa is seen in the experience OF
the manager Of a 55,000-acre ranch,
all in alfalfa. This much now actual
ly supports more cattle than the 140,-
900 acres of the original alfalfa ranch
in the native grass when this mar
took the place thirteen years ago.
The alfalfa had much more than dou.
bled the production of the land. Some
cattle that are bred upon the native
grass land are shipped to the alfalfa
country to finish; at the monthly
charge per head of stock the alfalfa
returns 81 to 50 per acre per year.
It requires from n and one-thirG
to one and two-thirds acres Of good al
falfa, we'll cared for, to support one
steer and two sheep. This means
1000 to 1890 cattle and twice as man,
sheep per league of 6,672 acres. This
seem equivalent to a steer per acre
Knowing the great increase in yieli
and remarkable richness of alfalfa il
protein, the most costly kind of foo<
in a balanced ration, yet the wonder
full significance Of this crop cannot b,
understood unless it is remembers,
that in Argentina beef cattle ar,
brought to the highest flesh and finisl
on gras and alfalfa alone, without an,
! grain at all.

From Restaurants TO Oil.
Operations such as these have been
conducted for the last three years,
and as a result the country has seen
chains of drug stores and an ever in
creasing procession Of popular priced
restaurants.
It was admitted at the Office of the
Hegeman Company that several OF
the Standard Oil men had as individ-
uals invested in the corporation. Its
president is John III. Flagler.
According to Samuel Childs, vice
president Of the Childs Restaurant
Company, dividends from his enter
prise find their way to No. &c Broad
way. A. Tydeman, Of the Bureau OF
Purchases and Supplies of the Stand

manufacture of candy are denied by
leading confectionery companies, and
one of them has within the last week
| sent out a circular to the trade ex'
plicitly stating that there has been nc

G. T. White, assistant treasurer
who has an office on the fourteenth
floor, was asked If there were any
truth in the report that the STANDARD
ly interested in outside ventures.

phatic reply.
Mr.. White referred to the variou'

carbollc Acid in the Poultry Ward.

carbolic Acid in the Poultry Yard.
Carbolic acid. properly applied, is a
useful drug in the poultry yard. The
offensive and unwholesome odors of the
poultry quarters, arising from the ex.
halations and the fermentation Of
their droppings, may be easily and
efectually removed by the use of q
solution of carbolic acid. Among the
most troublesome annoyances of poul.
t~ry-keeping lice must be enumerated.
These parasites will master the situa.
ton unless they are looked after. Car
bolic acid in solution almost instantly
destroys these pests. The small
mites" or Spiders" which live dur
ing the day in cracks and crevices and
about the bearings Of the roosts, in
the corner of nest-boxes, etc., are the
most annoying to the fowls at night.
Another trouble that may be enumer-
ated under the head of parasites is
"scabby legs" This disease, if di.
a minute insect, which burrows be-
tween and under the scales on the
shanks and feet. When neglected for
a considerable time, the scabs or in
c%rustations grow to a disgusting size,
and will be harder to remove than
If undertaken as soon as discovered.
This trouble is easily cured by the
use of the acid. A solution for use In
poultry quarters for hygenic purposes
may be made by mixing n fluid
ounce Of the acid with a gallon of wa
ter. Then sprinkle the inside sur
face DECENTRALIZATION, walls, roosts,
nests, everything inside of the quar-.
ters-with the solution. An excellent
plan is to saturate pieces of old car
pet, or bags, or WORKOUT horse-blank-
cts with a strong solution, and hang
or tack them up in the roosting-place,
or inside the coops where small chick
ems are kept. In hot weather the So
luton should be used in the buildings
at least enc a month, and in the coops
for little chickens oftener. The smell
! given off will n%eutralize odors or mi
asms and destroy all microscopic or
ganisms and parasites, while it is aD-
solutely harmless to the fowls and
chickens. The ointment is made by
mixing about one fluid ounce or a large
tablespoonful of the acid with a pound
of melted lard and stirring until thor
oughly mixed. AS soon as cold enough
it is ready for use. A little of this
will keep the vermin away. 1t Will,
when applied, cure the 'scabby leg"
