Killing Wild Oar.

Wild oats is one of the worst weed
pests that the Colorado farmer has to
deal with, especially in the higher alti-
tudes. Where wild oats have occupied
the land for a number Of years they
usually have left . large amount Of
seed on the soil. Quite frequently,
when given crop Of wild oats de-
stroyed by cutting or blowing, the
land will Immediately come up thickly
with wild oats. The common impress
sion is that the crop was not destroyed,
whereas usually the growing crop was
killed and the crop which appears 10 the
result or the sprouting Of seed already
in the soil.
The best way to rid the land Of wild
oats is to use meadow crops or cult
waited crops. If the wild oats are pre-
vented from seeding, and conditions
made favorable for the sprouting Of
.ths-sssd-in -ths- ground. thsy en- ~
in short time. The seed IL known b

from three to seven years before germ

Drying Damp Cellars.

The most efficient way to dry damp
cellars. Easements, etc., is to use cal
cium chloride. Put about q pound of
this salt in an old kettle, can, or SINH
lar container, that does not leak and
leave on the cellar -four. The above
amount is sufficient for a fairly large
space. The calcium chloride rapidly
absorbs the moisture from the air,
forming a solution in the can. This
liquid should not be thrown away, but
the water driven off by strong heat,
leaving the calcium chloride ready for
use again. With care, it will last a
long time. Commercial lump calcium
chloride costs about 10 cents per pound
retail. 1t is not the same as "chloride
of lime. &c. E. Vail, C. A. c., Fort
Collins, Colorado.

Colorado Springs, who was on her way
to this place to join her husband and

the Yellow Jacket country, was serio-
usly injured. Mr.. Payne was at this
place to meet his wife when he received
the wireOf the accident and left on No.
s for Mancos. going on to Durango
where the injured were taken. The
entire train excepting the engine and
tender left the track and the rear
coach turned turtle the passengers
walking out on the ceiling. The cause
is unknown but was probably caused
by the train getting little too much
momentum on the uneven rails causing
it to swing over, as we understand the
accident occurred when the train was
coasting down . grade.

To Make Whiiewash.


Whitewash is usually made by slack.
ing lime with water and applying with
. brush or broom. At least this is the
way we did it down on the farm.
A whitewash that will last longer
than one season on the inside of build
ing and which I believe has been re-
commended in one of the government
reports 10 made as follows: Slack half
. buslel of lime with boiling water,
keeping 1t covered, strain and add q
beck Of salt that has been diss0lyed in
warm water, three pounds Of ground
rice boiled to thin paste, half pound
Of powdered Spanish whiting and one
pound Of clear glue dissolved in warm
water. Mix and let the compound
stand for several days. Apply as hot
- possible. using a brush kept especially
for the purpose.
This whitewash will cost more than
the other but makes a very white
smooth surface and is quite enduring.
Where whitewash is applied to rough
boards, fence posts, etc., for -disen-
fectant purposes . more suitable mix
ture Is made by adding water and some
disenfectant to Stacked lime. The
above formula is intended more for in
side finishing where in some places it
will be quite as satisfactory as the
more expensive paint. Geo. H. Glover,
