few hours after treating. The bulk
of barley does not appear to be chang
ed materially by the moisture.
Corn smut and loose smut in wheat
cannot be prevented by merely treat
ing the seed. The only effective
method for these smuts is for farmers
to combine over a large area and cut
off all the diseased corn stalks and
pull the diseased wheat heads and
burn them.
To prevent potato scab, immerse
the tubers to be used for seed for a
nalf hour to an hour and half. be-
fore cutting, in mixture of 6ounces
of 40 per cent formaldehyde to 30 gal
Ions of water. 1t is better to plant
the seed on land previously used for
some other crop.
The cost of treating seed grain to
prevent smut is SO small and the
benefit SO large that if generally un-
derstood many more farmers would
get the habit. When the writer first
commenced the practice a number of
years ago he was informed that treat
ing the seed once would be good for
three or four years, SO be skipped it
the second year. The result was that
there was enough smut in the crop
that year to knock the wheat one
grade, or 2 cents bushel in the Min
neapolis market. making difference
of S75 for the half of the crop thresh-
ed out of the shock. The seed for the
whole crop would have been treated
at an expense of S6 or $S, including
labor. Since then formaldehyde, is
used as regularly as taxes are paid.
Fields OF wheat have come under his
observation in which, by actual tests
in different parts, more than half the
grain was destroyed by smut and
what was left graded rejected instead

people who have never studied a
railroad report, but who are 'ferninst"
the railroads, simply because they
are operated by corporations, will
take free hand in it. and will say a
whole lot that is both interesting and
untrue
The above is the Argus Leaders
way of disposIng of what may be said
by the people in favor of the 2-cent
rate, and against the litigation to fol,
low But what does the editor of the
Argus Leader, or any other man, know
after udying a railroad report7 To
gain positive knowledge from such a
report made for publication one must
possess positive knowledge of condi
tions not mentioned in the repors,
such as walered stocks, etc. The ed
itor of the Al. would have to study
railroad reports long time before he
could make a reasonable explanation
OF why the rate on car of corn should
be IL cents per hundred pounds from
Cauistota, in McCook county, to De
Smet, a distance of about 80 miles,
when the rate from De Sine to Mime
polls, distance of about $50 miles, is
only IL cents per hundred pounds.
Likewise, it will take lot of study to
produce satisfactory explanation of
why a 2-cent rateis unreasonable and
liable to ruin train service when the
reports to the railroad commissioners
by the two great systems in this state
show the average receipts per passen-
ger per mile for 1908 was less than 2
cents per mile.

THE Twin Cities were in mourning
last week for one who had been a
pioneer, and one whose life had been
devoted to their interests, while ac
cumulating fortune for himself.
Probably no millionaire ever lived in
the west who was more generally re
spected and who uas more universal
ly mourned at death than plain Tom
Lowry, of Minneapolis. He was at
the head of the Twin City Rapid
Transit company. and prominently
connected with many other enter
prises, as well as one who was always
at the front in every move for the
building of his home city. 1t has
been suggested that a monument of
Lowry to be the central figure of the
new gateway park, which is to be
made of the site now occupied by
the old city hall. A more graceful
act the Minneap Ills people could not
do.

plaintiff is trust, admitted of record
to be trust, pr-cticing a method of
monopolizing common among trusts.
The plaintiff was organized to do
the selling of all the fac ories making
wall paper. 1t required dealers desir-
lug paper TO sign an ironclad agree
ment to sell only at prices fixed by
the plaintiff. 1t fixed the wholesale
price, Voight, the defendant averred,
so per cent higher than competitive
price would be. If Voight would not
sign, he could get no paper and would
have to go out of business. So he
signed and bought 100000 worth,
payments on which reduced the debt
to the amount stated To collect
this, the trust brought the suit, was
nonsuited below. and the supreme
court affirms the judgement of non-
suit.
The trust relied on decisions that
held that voluntary buying of mo-
nopoly created valid debt, collection
of which courts would enforce But
Justice Harlan, who read the majority
opinion, distinguishes this case as one
of implied contract, founded on mu-
tual express agreement to do an il
legal and forbidden act, the creation
of a monopoly in restraint of trade,
violative of the anti trust act. "We
hold" says the court, "that such a
judgement Zone making effective the
illegal agreements that constituted
the forbidden combination) cannot be
granted without departing from the
salutary rule that a court will not
lend its aid in any way to enforce or
to realize the fruits of an agreement
which appear to be tainted with IL
legality, although the result of apply
ing that rule may sometimes be to
SHIELD defendant who has got some
thing for which, as between man and
man, he ought perhaps to pay, but
for which he is unwilling to pay
Justice Holmes read dissenting
opinion He distinguished between
the agreement, which was plainly IL
legal, and the sale, which was legal.
Following prior decisions which held
defendant to his contract with a
trust, knowing it to be such, II could
make no difference, he argued, that
this knowledge was expressed in the
mutual agreement. Which strikes
the laymen as a severe criticism oi

PREVENTING SMUT IN GBAIN.

The great loss caused by sinking
smut in grain can be entirely done
away with by treating the seed with
formaldehyde, using 16 ounces of the
40 per cent solution to each As gallons
of water.
A good way to treat the seed with
out going to the expense of buying a
machine for that purpose is to use
gunny sacks to dip the grain in the
prepared solution, putting about a
bushel in a sack. By using from a
half dozen to a dozen sacks and hav-
ing arrangements made to allow them
TO drain for few minutes before
emptying, running the surplus back
into the barrel or other receptacle so
it will not be wasted, a large amount
of seed can be handled in a short
time. Care should be taken in dip
ping that all goes under so that it is
all thoroughly wet.
Another method is to spray or sprin-
kle in pile on the gfanary floor or
even in wagon box and mixing thor
oughly with shovel so that every
kernel is wet
Where large quantities are to be
treated time is saved by using a ma
chine made for the purpose. There
are number of different makes and
various sizes on the market. Owing
TO the greater speed with which the
grain is handled with the machines
more of the solution is wasted than
when the grain is dipped or sprayed.
In treating flax seed for wilt, use 16
ounces of the 40 per cent formalde-
hyde to forty gallons of water, spray
ing the. seed and shoveling over at
the same time SO as iomix thoroughly
without getting too wet. Dry flax
seed will absorb about gallon to the
bushel, wheat to ! gallon and barley
and oats about 2 to q gallons
Wheat that has been treated in
creases in bulk about 20 per cent by
the next day and has absorbed the
moisture SO it appears to be quite dry

NO AID FOR A TRUST

By another of those five-to-four de
cisions of the United States supreme
court, which reveal the uncertainty of
judges of what the law really is, that
thing which all men are presumed to

permissible as a defense, that court

company cannot collect of Voight &
Sons a debt Of $4,000 owing it for
