HOW TO TREAT BARLEY SMUT
(1y r. A. Moore.)

(6y r. A. Moore.)
Grain smut is one Of the worst me
mics, and you will lose from five to
ten per cent. If you do not treat it
properly before sowing. Most Of tho
select varieties Of seed barley now
on the market r nearly free from
smut.
Repeated experiments have proven
that formaldehyde alone will not kill
both kinds Of barley smut, and we
therefore recommend the warm water
treatment.
Hot Water for Loose Smut.
Soak sack Of barley IL hours in
cold water, let drain for one hour, put
in cask of warm water, not over 1870
degrees Fahrenheit, for a minute or
two to take of the chill and then sub.
merge In barrel of warm water held at
constant temperature of 1870 degrees
Fahrenheit for six minutes. II you
get the water too hot, even five de-
grees, you will kill the germ and ruin
your seed. Carefully test your Their.
mometer by the standard thermome-
ter at the cheese factory or creamery.
After removing sack Of barley, empty
on threshing floor to cool and SOW as
soon as possible thereafter, because II
left for two or three days before SOW.
ing, barley may sprout. Use gunny
sacks in which to put barley for treat.
ment and do not have them more than
half filled as this will allow tho pene-
tration Of the temperature readily.
Test Your Thermometer.
Do not treat more than one or two
sacks the first year. This will give
you enough seed which. Is free from
smut to plant all Of next years crop.
Every farmer should have his own
seed patch from which to select the
best each year for the next years
seed patch, using what is left for gen.
eral sowing.
FormaIdehyde for Closed Smut.
Thoroughly mix 10 ounces avoirdu.
polls Il pint) formaldehyde in a tank
or barrel containing SO gallons Of wa
ter; put your seed in a gunny sack
and dip 1t into this solution. Soak it
good for a few minutes; take out the
grain and allow it to drain for a few
minutes; then empty the grain on a
clean floor and cover with wet sacks
or with a canvas for an hour. Treat
the grain at least a half a day before
sowing, in order to give it time to
dry.
II you prefer, you can spread the
seed grain on a clean floor and spray
the seed with a common spr1nkling
can. or still better with a small force
pump, which will throw an even spray.
It should be shoveled over and vel
until the seed is thoroughly moistened,
then cover with a few sacks OF
blanket for an hour. Allow seed to
dry before sowing.
Sixteen ounces Of formaldehyde in
SO gallons of water will treat 40 tc
80 bushels, and should cost 80 to st
cents. Be sure that the formaldehyde
Is Of standard quality.

Loss ~ sMuT.

About half q million dollars' worth
Of barley Is destroyed by smut every
year in Wisconsin alone. II you are
going to treat smut With hot water,
you had better test your Thermometer
by that at the creamery. A few do.
grees too hot will kill your barley.
Every man should have q barley plot
and grow his own seed. Two or threG
acres will be SUFFICIENT to devote to
this seed growing.

A QUAINT DUTCH CUSTOM.
Discovery of Gunpowder Plot by
Boys in Holland.

From the Boston Transcript
VI the many quaint and curious Gus
toms. traditions and privileges prevailing
In Holland, none is more extraordinary
than certain privilege that has been en-
Joyed by the boys of Amsterdam for
nearly three hundred years.
At fixed time each summer these boys
gather by the hundreds in the great
square called the Dam, situated in the
center of the city. Each boy has a drum
slung over his shoulder
Facing this square is the stock ex-
change. and on the occasion in question,
just as soon as the days business is
over as many of the boys as can crowd
into the building. They proceed to the
floor of the exchange, where, pursuant to
this odd custom. they are permitted to
march about, singing and beating their
drums.
The origin Of this custom. it is said is
as follows:
One afternoon in the year 1922 a crowd
of boys playing in the Dam lost a ball in
the canal that in those days skirted one
side of the square. One of the lads.
while climbing in among the piles on
which the building stood. found instead of
his ball a boat moored in a dark corner
and loaded with boxes of gunpowder
This showed clearly enough what was
afterward ascertained with certainty, the
intention of the Spanish conspirators to
blow up the stock exchange while 1t was
crowded, as it was every day, with the
leading citizens of the city.
The boy who stumbled upon the gum
powder at once hurried to the town
authorities with his news. The boatload

WHEN Is AN EGG DECAYED?
Question Must Be Answered by the
Supreme Court.

When is an egg decayed?" is the
latest problem to occupy official atten-
ton in Washington. The Supreme Court
of the United States is called upon to
decide the question, and probably will
announce next Monday date for it's
consideration.
Preparers of frozen eggs are asking
for ruling that will prevent pure food
officers from condemning their product
on account of a change in chemical
composition, unless it is affirmatively
shown that the eggs are unfit for food
or injurious to health. The government
has informed the court that the case is
of importance. because frozen eggs are
used in the manufacture of the greater
part of the cakes and pastry sold to
the public.
