The Bonds.
Charlotte Cmealicle.

Through Mr.. Edward L. An
o1reWs, COUNSEL, the committee of
.5ondllolGers of New York. has
ISSUED an address to North Caro-
linians. The address is a reproof
to the people of the State for
Reputation of the bonds issued
in 1869. and it closes with
threat. Summing up the moral
consj derations (which should be
the cnain factors in bringing
about the restoration of North
Cardinals credit" " the address
csaysit would be unfair to all
concerned that the strength of
the oondholders' position should
be concealed. This committee, "
it says. has always favored the
cancellation of all the overdue
coupons on these bonds, amount
ing to seventeen millions of dol
liars. This proposition should af-
ford at least a basis for negotia-
tioea of settlement. Upon the
failure of such negotiation, that
amount will be transferred to
the absolute ownership of a gov
ernment in whose hands the en-
tire sum would be collectable.
In view of North Cardinals quick
assets in railroad property, and
taxable resources available under
the special tax provisions of her
statutes, judgment for this large
amount would be substantially
available. Moreover, even after
that collection the bondholders
would still remain in possession
of the full amount of the princi-
pal debt, ten millions of dollars,
In short, by adopting hostile
course, North Carolina would
be nearly trebling her liabili-
ty, /,
These bonds, we suppose, are
the same that Mr.. Butler has
been employed to collect. Wheth-
er the issuance of the address at
fflss time has any connection with
the Republican campaign in this
State We do net know. but it is
evident that tre purchasers of
the repudiated bonds are going
to exhaust every legal means in
the effort to collect them.

URGES WORKON
HIGH LINE CANAL

Apparently the Denver Republican
has experienced change of heart
with regard to the government con-
struction of the High Line canal.
Time was when that newspaper advo-
Gated, either by editorial or inspired
contributed articles. the private con-
strucuon of the big project. OF
course, the people of this valley want
ed the canal built If the govern
ment could not do it they wanted pri-
vate capital to accomplish its con-
struction- But they wanted to be Ger
tain the government would not under
take the job in the near future before
turning it over to private contractors.
However, in yesterdays RepubI-
can appears the following editorial.
urging the immediate RESUMPTION of
the Grand valley project:
Secretary BaIlinger will find
plenty to occupy his time and atteu-
tlon when he investigates the exist
ing reclamation projects to determ-
Inc how and where the available
funds shall be expended.
The purpose in granting permits

urally, these call for first attention.
The sum named, together with saccu-
mutations from the sale of public
lands, will supply the service of near,
ly S@5,O0O,000 with which to prose-
cute work upon these enterprises and
make at least, beginning upon new

ready in hand. the construction of the
proposed high line ditch in the
Grand valley in this state calls for as
prompt action as may be practicable.
1t is an enterprise which should have
been carried INTO effect years ago.
for it possesses as much merit as
many others actually begun, and more
than some of them.
Before ordering this work, the
reclamation service should, however,
determine with care the best line for
the ditch. One line suggested several
years ago passed through some o. the
most valuable peach orchards in the
Grand valley near Palsade; and since
these orchards would be destroyed
should a ditch be run through them
a better line ought to be secured. 1t
is not a question so much of avoiding
the increased cost which destruction
of the orchards would involve in case
the ownwers were properly compen-
stated, as of the destruction of that
much productive orchard which
would be permanently lost to the
valley and the state.
The Rio Grande, or Engle dam,
project in the southern part of New
Mexico should be condemned or at
least greatly modified before author
izing the expenditure upon il of any
more money. II is inherently defect
i've for several reasons. and one of
these is the unconstitutionalityo of the
attempt TO employ federal authority
for the reclamation of private land
lying wholly in Texas where the fed
eral government owns practically no
land
Since steps may be taken to COM
bat the project on this and other
grounds, it would be well for the
reclamation service to proceed slowly
and with great care in everything
connected with that enterprise 1t is
Objectionable for the additional rea-
son that it involves prohibition-also
illegal-upon the use of irrigation in
Colorado of water which the promot-
ers of the enterprise fancy they need
for storage in the Engle reservoir"

Treating Wheat For Smut

convenient place. About a gallon should
be used to the bushel of grain, and
great care should be exercised in order
that no seed escape the treatment
When thoroughly sprinkIed they should
be covered in the pile with old sacks
or canvas, and left until the next day.
when they should be uncovered and
thoroughly dried. Seed thus treated
may be kept many months before
planting.
Copper SuIphafe (BIuestOne.)
This treatment has been used for a
much longer time than the one just
mentioned. but does not give as good
results, though the disease may be
almost totally controlled in this way.
One pound of the crystals should be
dissolved in "a gallons of water, and
the seed poured in and left for II or
more hours with an occasional stir
ring. and then taken out and dried The
seed may be planted now, but better
results are obtained If the grain is
dipped in a solution made by dissolv-
ing one pound of lump lime that has
been well slaked. in ten gallons OF
water for five minutes, just after re-
moving from the bluestone solution
Where infection is bad and the smut
is giving a great deal Of trouble, all
sacks. drills. and everything with
which the seed comes in contact should
be treated with the same solution
Either of these treatments, if prop
erIy given. will result in an increase
in the yield and quality Of the grain
where trouble has resulted from this
disease.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1910-11-19

At threshing time this summer a
great deal of the wheat in certain parts
of the territory was noticed to be
affected by smut, which, caused a con-
siderable amount of financial loss to
the farmers Much of this might have
been avoided, and may in the future
be prevented by treating the seed be-
fore planting. as the disease is caused
bv spores carried over from year to
year on the seed.
There are two distinct kinds of smut
that affect this crop; loose smut, and
sinking smut. 1t is the latter that is
giving the trouble, and it might be
well TO add that it is this one that IS
so easily treated. The treatments adj
vised are many. but two methods have
been found most satisfactory from tie
standpoint of economy, ease Of treat
ment and effect.
FOrn1aIfn Treatment.
This is perhaps the easiest of all the
treatments, and repeated experiments
have proved its efficiency Sixteen
ounces of 40 percent formalin is used
In 40 gallons of water and the grain is
allowed to soak in the solution for
about 80 minutes, after which 1t is
removed and allowed 10 dry thorough
IL. Care must be taken to insure thor
ough drying to prevent mold good
way to manage the soaking is to place
the grain in coarse sacks of a small
size and immerse it in the solution
Many. however, prefer the sprinkllng
method, which consists of making up
the solution in the same strength, and
sprinkling it over the seed, which have
