HOW TO PREVENT DAT SMUT
Grain Should Be Treated With For

Drilled In Same Day.

To prevent oat smut. the eraIr

takes about one ounce OF formalin fol
every i've bushels OF grain to be treat
ed.
Clean n space on the barn floor and
thoroughly sprinkle 1t with the for.
malin solution before spreading the
seed grain. The oats should be run
through the tanning mill twice to re-
move all light grain. as only heavy
clean seed should be sown. Spread
down the seed grain. then sprinkle the
grain with the formalin solution made
as follows: Formalin, one ounce; wa.
ter. two and one-half gallons; mis
thoroughly. The solution can be I'D
piled with a fine rose watering pot:
shovel the grain over so that every
seed is coated with the solution When
all the grain is coataed shovel the
grain into a round pile and cover with
sacks for not more than two or three
hours. then spread out. and as soon
as the oats will not stick together n
is fit to SOW or drill. The grain should
be treated In the morning and drilled
In the same day. The drill should be
set to drill two and onefourth to two
and one-half bushels to the acre. as
the oats. having absorbed considerable
water are larger than dry oats. Have
the ground thoroughly mellowed:
drill the oats In with $50 pounds 10

will pay to use the fertilizer. The fer
tilizer will ripen the grain early. the
straw will stand up stir and cannot be
blown down by summer storms and
the yield will be increased fully 10 to

STAPLE FOOD FOR CHICKENS
Hens Cannot Give Best Results When
Fed Grain Aione-Fowis De-
mand Variety OF Feed

Grain is the staple food for poultry
and Will be used for that purpose az
long as fowls are kept on farms. but
hens cannot give good results on grain
alone. II is beneficial to them and will
be at all times rellshed. but the do
mands OF the hens are such as TO call
for a variety. In the shells OF eggs
as well as their composition are sev.
eral forms OF mineral matter and nitro
gen. which can only be partially OBJ.
tanned from grain.
Even grains vary in composition
and when fowls ara fed on one kind
for long time they will begin TO re-
fuse II. as they may be oyersupplied
with the elements OF the food partaken
and lack the elements that are bes,
supplied from some other source. For
this reason they will accept n change
OF food. which is OF itself an evidence
that the best results from hens can
only be obtained by variety OF food.
corn and wheat may be used as food
with advantage. but must be given as
portion OF the ration and not made
exclusive articles OF diet.

To some not accustomed to the ex-
elements and responsibilities of

some respects and at some points
seem heroic. but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. 1t is our
business to make sure that they are
genuine remedies. Our object is clear.
II our motive is above just challenge
and only an occasional error of judg
ment is chargeable against us, We
shall be fortunate.
We are called upon to render the
country great service in more mat
tiers than one. Our responsibility
should be met and our methods should
be thorough, as thorough as moderate

facts as they are, and not worked out
as II we were beginners. We are to

with the facts of no other, and to
make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed 1t is neces-

For the present. l put these matters

RECORD ATTENDANCE AT
 CONVICT SHIP MAY MEAN
 PROLOKGING OF HER VISIT

Following the record breaking at tendance yesterday at the Convict ship, Success, moored at the Steeple- chase dock, Lower Bridge, Captain D.. H. Smith today increased his corps of lecturers who accompany the groups of visitors about the ship, that there may be no unnecessary delay in ex- plotting the myriad of interesting fea- lures to the curious visitors.
 The attendance on the Success yes terday was so large that the capacious hold of the historic vessel was thronged almost continuously from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m. The visitors includ- ed many who had come from inland cities to witness the curiosities of the convict ship. There were many Bridgeporters, too, who had already seen the ship, but who returned to bring their families and friends. Cap tain Smith said today that he knew Of a number of instances where visit ors have returned the third or fourth time, even during the short stay of the vessel here, for there are so many things to see that it is difficult to grasp them all even in a prolonged tour of inspection.
 Captain Smith is seriously contem- plating a long visit in this city. He had planned originally to stay but a, week or ten days but with the con stantly growing patronage. and the interest that is spreading througI1o St the city and surrounding country in the convict ship, there is a likelihood that he may change his shipping ar engagements.
 Trolley cars from all lines run past the ship or make quick connections at transfer points for the vessel. The hours are from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m., and at night the entire vessel is brightly iI1umined with hundreds of electric lights.

YOUNG CHRIsTY MATHEWSON WILL PASS 3sRD
 MILESTONE TOMORROW

Looking at it in offhand, imper- sonaI sort of way,''-it is Bob Edgren of the New York Evening World who is doing the 1amping stunt doesn't it seem about time to drop that grand old man line when mentioning Christy Mathewson?' ?''
 Looking at it according to the direc- tions prescribed by Dr. E5dgren, and also by and large, ana up one side and down t'other, and taking into consid- eration box scores and averages and such like it does seem that Bob is right, as usual and that the grand old man. thing should be taken out on some dark night thrown into the wa ter, and held there until it stops bub- bling and the attending physician pro- nounces life to be extinct. And in sup port of this statement there is the fol lowing timely statistic:
 Christopher MatheWson will pass his thirty third milestone tomorrow.
 Now, I take it, and I think even tfDoo'' Osler would take it, that a par ty of thirty-three summers IS not a grand or any other variety of old man. Looking at it from the present angle, there appears to be no particular rea- son why Blk Six should not go right on hurling the pill for another decade. No other pitcher has ever had the art and science of saving his wing down to so fine point as Matty. Early in his career as a hurIer Mah6WSOn QOpoQ it out that the average batter has only one chance in three of swatting the leather safely, even if given a good opportunity. Having arrived at that conclusion, with the aid of a college education at Bucknell, Matty decided always to save himself for the time of need and he has been following that program ever since.
 Matty was playing with Norfolk, in the Virginia State League, in 1900, when he was drafted by Cincinnati. Before the 1901 season opened the Reds traded him to the Giants TOT Amos Ru- sic The sun of the great Rusie was even that fading, and his baseball ca reer was over before Matty's was fair V begun. Rusie is now d pfumber in Seattle while Mathewson is-weIl, even the natives of Timbuctoo must know what Matty is. But, then, the chief mission has always been to be stung, and when they swapped Matty, for Amos they were certainly stung good and proper.
