Deep in the heart of things
Is song that ever sings,
And by the eternal plan
There is in the heart Of man
One rare chord. set there to be
An echo of that harmony.
Blent of singing of the birds
And of lowing of the herds,
And the humming of the bees,
Shouting of the seven seas
All sounds, be they harsh or sweet
Must In this song unceasing meet.
Tumult in the city walls,
Mellowness of country calls,
And the bugle's brazen notes,
Thunders from the cannon throats,
Children's laughter, foemen's cheers,
And the faint sad drop of tears;
Yes. and tones of marvel-grace
Thrummed across the field of space,
Wonder-music all sublime
Chanted by the stars that climb
By the faintest, farthest ones
And by the onward Willing suns.
So creations music blends
In a song that never ends;
Rustling grass and planets dim
Chorus IN the primal hymn
So through all the years it rings
Forever in the heart Of things.
Times there are when you and l
Hear it sweeping clear and high.
All unconscious that the sound
Is of neither mete nor bound,
Yet 1t may be it is planned
That some day we may understand.

1t is generally conceded in rail-

the banner year for southern Idaho

All grain will more or less smut
unless treated to prevent it. Grain
smut very often causes a lass of 8
to 25 per cent. Farmrs doubtless
do not realize the losses that occur
annually from this trouble. The pre-
venttive methods which can be en-
ployed are both easy and extremely
effective.
The source of infection is through
the medium of seed and all grain
sown should be treated in such way
that will kill smut spores without
injuring the seed. There are two
very effective methods.
1. Formaldehyde Method. Use
pint (pound) Formaldehyde to
from 40 to SO gallon water, 40 per
cent known as formalin, mixed in
barrel or tank. The grain may be
dipped into the solution in gunny
sacks until it is all thoroughly wet,
then pull up to let drain to save the
liquid. When dried it is ready to

PLANT ORCHARDS.
A Sure M0ney-Maker on The
RichfieId Tract.

Every farm on the Richfield Tract
should have an orchard on it.

the farm is coming into high

Orchards should be set on the
high points in order that teyh may
escape tn efrosts and chilly nights
that may destroy the buds in the
low land and pockets The philos-
ophy of this is apparent when it
is remem bered that coldair is heav-
ier than warm air and as soon as
the sun goes down and the ground
ceases to reflect heat there is set
up movement Of the cold air to-
ward the low spots When low
lands lie in the bottom of a canyon
the cold air may be known by wind
currents driving up or down the can
yon. In country of plains, how
ever, there is no general night wind
with the result that the
cold air settles into the low pockets
and the frost line may frequently
be observed in such pockets as ris-
ing to the heighth where the cold
air can flow into some lower region.
