TREATMENT FOR DAT SMUT.
Seven to Ten Per Cent. Lost in Pro
duct!on by Not Treating for
Shut.
(By L. n. Ro!Isy.}

National Crop improvement Service.l
1t will cost about eight to ten cents
per acre for treating oats with formal
dehyde for smut. BY a large number
Of tests it has been found that on a
conservative basis there is q loss from
sever to ten per cent. due alone to
smut; or in other words, the farmer
loses annually from three to five
bushels of oats per acre to smut which
could have been eliminated for not to
exceed ten cents per acre by treating
the seed with formaldehyde. One
pound of formaldehyde $40 per cent?
mixed with 40 gallons of water will
treat 40 bushels of oats. The oats
should be spread out about four or five
inches deep; q sprinkler is a very
convenient method of applying the So
luton. While the solution is being
added it is we'll hat the oats be
stirred "a rake can be used for this
purpose), in order that the solution
may become equally distributed. The
oats should then be shoveled into a
pile and covered with blankets by
gunny sacks, something to prevent the
formaldehyde from evaporating too
readily. This treatment may be done
in the evening, and the oats left cover
ed during the night. The following
morning they might be uncovered and
spread out. By stirring them occasion
ally it will be found that they will
soon dry out and may be sown the
same day.
Simplest and Best.
If more oats are treated than are
needed for seed, they may be fed aft
er they have been exposed to the air
for "a to 48 hours, during which time
the formaldehyde will have evapo-
rated. The formaldehyde treatment is
the simplest and most effective treat
ment for smut in oats. In purchasing
the formaldehyde, great care must
be taken that it is of the proper
strength as above stated. Should it
be weak, the treatment will be Of no
avail.
Advice to Local Druggists.

strength is one of vital Importance to
you. You and your town will pros

and make your town. 1t is an easy
thing for you to see to it that they get
only the full strength and weight. l
have found that many so-called pound
bottles of formaldehyde contain only
IL to 13 ounces. The formula calls for
16 ounces-for a pound. The different
treatments will fail if made upon q

STATE VETERINARY
TO EXAMINE COWS
DR.. Luckey Writes Mayor Rage
Inspection Will be Made
Thursday.

The publication of these facts eaus-
ed the members of the Wednesday
Club ,one of the most exclusive So
cial organizations in this city, to no.
tify their milk men that unless they
could produce certificates, showing
the milk to be pure, the ladies would
refuse to buy milk and cream from To-
cal dairymen.
The facts were communicated to DR..
Luckey, who is making arrangements
to hold an investigation under the SUI
pervision of his office.
His letter to Mayor Rage says:
Dear Sir: l am informed that there
is some move on foot to improve the
dairy conditions about Cape Girardeau
and, in particular, to require the dairy
cattle to be tested for tuberculosis.
In order that you may avoid errors
that have been made by other cities,
| would like to go over the matter
with you in person. If nothing hap
pens to prevent, l or DR.. H. c. Tuck,
Deputy State Veterinarian, will be in
Cape Girardeau on Thursday, the Is
inst, to go over the matter with you.
Mayor Rage received a letter yes
terday from DR.. D. f. Luckey, State
Veterinarian, stating that either he or
DR.. H. c. Tuck, his assistant, would
visit this city next Thursday to ex-
anime the dairy herds in this vicinity.
Dr. Whitaker, Deputy State Veter-
marian, who lives near Oak Ridge, in
tended 70 inspect herds from which
milk is sold to residents of the Cape,
but DR.. Luckey requested him to de-
lay his investigation until repre-
sentative from Columbia could be
here.
DR.. Whitaker will accompany the
state official when he inspects the
mich cows next week.
The investigation by the state au-
thOritieS is due to the revelations made
in The Tribune last week. Stories
published in this newspaper showed
that some of the milk sold in this city
was unfit for use.

COMMIT CLUB
MAY. MANAGE
FAIR GROUNDS
Business Men Discuss Plan
to Lease Park for Prese mt
Year.
COMMITTEE OF THREE
TO CONSIDER PROJECT
Club Endorses Fair and Will Offer
1000 for Control of
Grounds.

At the meeting held at the CONNER
cial Club last night for the purpose
of discussing the proposition of con-
Quoting the fair for the fall of 1915
the following four questions were Civ
en- considerations:
l. Shall we hold a fair?
2. Shall the Commercial Club lease
the grounds?
,. What amount can the Club af-
ford to pay for a lease on grounds?
4. Who shall conduct the fair?
Charles Blattner of the Fair Asso-
citation, addressed the meeting, in
which he stated that the directors de-
sired fair, and would like to know
what proportion the Commercial Club
had>t to offer.
The motion of Professor Roberts
that the sense of the Commercial
Club was to hold the fair, was second
cd by John l.. Miller, and carried.
1t was moved by A. NJ. Tinsley that
if the Commercial Club could lease the
ground on a favorable consideration
that a contract be made and the fair
conducted under the supervision of the
Commercial Club. The motion was
seconded by Prof. Roberts, and duly
carried
A committee composed of William
Bergman, \. NJ. Tinslcy and A. H.
Hinchey was appointed to meet with
the directors Of the Fair and Park
Association, on Wednesday afternoon
for the purpose of reaching some def
mite conclusion relative to holding the
fair, and to report at the meeting of
the Commercial Club, to be held On
Friday night.
1t was moved and carried that the
committee be empowered to offer the
Association for the use of the fair
ground property from now until Nov,
l, z sum not to exceed $1,000.
The committee will meet with the
Board of Directors Of the Fair Asso-
citation on Wednesday afternoon, and
definite arrangements will be reached
Friday night, in order to enable Sec
rotary Joe T. Num-, Jr., to arrange
dates and help to form the circuit for
Southeast Missouri and Northern Ar
kansas fairs.
The members of the Fair Board and
the committee appointed by Presi-
dent Mcpherson met after the meet
ing had adjourned, but not reaching
a decision will meet again on We'd

am here obiecting to the improve
ments Of Sprigg street.
Il want it understood that any rad
ical change in the grade .. mat street
as suggested here will be objected to.
Any substantial change in that grade
would be considerable injury to alb
butting property on that street.
81 doubt very much whether the
city could afford to undertake a
change like that at this time.
al it was contemplated to make
that four per cent grade at that hill
that grade ought to have been estab-
lished in 1872 and not at this time.
We find that nearly every strict in
this town, and every city in the state,
have six per cent grades and even
heavier, and l do not think you gen
t!ement would be Justified at all in
making the change. That is my opin-
ion and do not wish you to accept it
unless you so desire.
81 do not think it would Justify you
to attempt to change the grade from
six to four per cent. In other words
the city could hardly afford to under
take to level down that hill. Sprigg
street is one of the longest and level
est streets in the city"
Engineer Silver stated that when
he was ordered by the Council to es-
tahlish the grade, and when he looked
in the plat book he found that an old
ground line was shown, but no grade,
and at the top of the hill a cut CORE
spending to the one he suggests. 81;
feet, is shown and that is the only
place along the original survey that
grade line is shown and all the rest
shows contour of the ground.
Upon motion, the matter was refer
red to the Street and Wharf Commit
tee.
The motion of Councilman Fowler
to direct the street commissioner and
health officer to prevent the deposit
ing of garbage and other refuse mat
ter on the vacant lots in the sunken |
area near Lorimier and William |
streets, and William and Fountain |
streets, was carried.
Chief Nichols requested that some |
steps be taken to prevent trespassers
from beating paths across the court
yard. He stated that he wished to see
this correction made before he retired
from the office of chief, and Council
man Black suggested that Mr.. NichOl-
as personally guard the courtyard and

Willow Springs, Mo, March ia
few charred bones and the upper half
of human body were found in the
ruins Of the residence of George w.
Ward, eight miles east of Willow
Springs, by the Coroner's jury called
to investigate the affair yesterday.
The body is supposed to be that of
Wards wife, Mrs. Agnes Ward. The
house burned early yesterday.
According to Wards story he arose
early, built fire in the stove and
went to feed the stock. When he re-
turned to the house it was in flames
and he was unable to rescue his wife.
Ward, who is about 81 years old,
has lost five residences by fire. In a
former fire his first wife was burned
to death. Mrs. Wards first husband
was murdered about two years ago.
They had one child, who is in a Cath
olic school in this county. The dead
woman carried 5000 life insurance,
one-half of which was recently made
payable to Ward. All her property is
in Wards name. The house that was
burned is said to have been insured.
