/. L. LINCECUM

says the College lndustrialist, has
been repeatedly tested and found
effective. The reason for using
Ia double strength of solution in
the case of the grain smut of sor
ehum and Kaf'ir corn is because
the sorghum smut is enclosed en-
tirely within the hard seed coat
of the grain, which, although I'M
altered in external appearances,
is filled with black smut dust (the
sopres or reproducing bodies OF
the smpt parisite). The cmut
spores of oats, on the other hand,
become scattered from the smut
ted heads in the field and are
caught in the chaif of unsmutted
heads. In threshing, also, the
smut is mixed with and rubbed
over the grain.
One pint of commercial formal
dehyde to 50 gallons allowing ]
gallon of the mixture to every
bushel of the seed, is the strength
recommended for oats. The oats
are spread out thinly on a clean
floor sprinkled with a watering
| pot or sprayer
Caution: Do not spread seed to
Doe sprinkled upon floor which
smutted grain has lain. After
/ treatment If the grain has to be
stored, see to it that it is stored
in a clean or dismfected place.
Keep the formaldehyde away
from children. 1t is not explos-
i've or infammable, and is per-
fectly safe for adults to handle.
| The fumes of the gas which es-
cape from the liquid solution are
exteremely irritating to the eyes
| and throat, and the stronger so
/ lutions are corrosive to the skin.
Internally formaldehyde is pois-
! OnOus.

WE NAY ALL HEAR
THE PRESIDENT THE N
Thos. A. Edison Calls on Taft and
Explains New Invention s.

/ Washington, Nov. 3O.-ThOmas A.
Edison, the noted inventor, unfolded
before President Taft yesterday a
plan for campaigning without travel
ing by which Mr.. Taft might be seen
and heard, not by 100000, but by
| 60,0OO,OO0 of the nations voters
without absenting himself for day
from business at the White House.
1t is the newest invention of Mr..
Edison-the talking motion-picture
machine.
All that would be necessary Mr..
Edison explained to the President,
would be for man to go before an
audience, make a speech on any subs
ject which he chose, and the talking
motion-picture machine would repro
duce to audiences all over the coun-
try every gesture of the speaker,
every word of his speech, and every
shout OF the crowd about him. In
his recent trip Mr. Taft appeared in
Els cities and towns by arrangement,
and spoke from the platform of his
car in perhaps hundred small
places.
This took up So days of the Presi-
dents precious time, and, besides,
put strain on him that brought him
down with a cold which kept him out
of the executive offices for four days
more.
Mr.. Edison said he was in WASH
ington in search of rest. He had
never met the President before.

the clubhouse have been drawn and
call for floor space of about 200x1S4
feet. The building, II erected, will
include all the equipment necessary

he consulted with many progress
sive Republicans In the ward he
. consented.
He Immediately sent out fifty
postal cards into each precinct OF
the ward with five propositions
thereon to be voted on and he
found the sentiment of the ward
to be overwhelmingly In accord
with his own views. The vote
stood as follows:
Are you satisfied with present
