TREATING OATS FOR SMUT
Mixture of Formaldehyde and Water a
 Practical and Effective Method.

Seed oats this spring must be treated for smut. Nearly all spring oats last year smutted badly and all seed now available are probably badly infested. Treat the seed with formal dehyde and avoid loss from smut.
 l. Mix one pound (one pint) of for maldehyde With forty gallons of water in large size barrel
 9 Put a bushel or more of oats IT, two bushel bag Ca cheap gunny sack of very coarse open materiaD.
 8. Dip bag and oats into the solu- tion and shake up and down until all oats are thoroughly wet. Elevate and drain.
 4. Allow the oats to remain in the bag for about two hours, or empty Tn 8 heap and leave for about two hours.
 5. Spread them out to dry. When nearly dry, drying may be hastened by sprinkling them with thoroughly air slaked lime.
 6. Sow about ten per cent more per acre to allow for the swelling.
 '. The machinery and receptaclec to be used in handling the oats after they are treated should first be thor Oughly cleaned with the solution.
 Note. Mix the solution just before using. Apply the treatment just be- fore seeding.
 For convenience, a pulley may be arranged directly over the open end of the barrel and through it a rope can be used for dipping, shaking and draining the bags of oats.
 Another method sometimes used in treating seed with formaldehyde, con- sists of spreading the seed out in a three-inch layer on a smooth, clean floor, sprinkling them with the solu- tion, and then shoveling back and forth to insure contact of all seed with the solution The treated seed are then shoveled into a pile and GOV cred with sacks or canvass to keep the gas enclosed. After six or eight hours the covers are removed and the oats spread out to dry.

 The double method consists of using serum and a small quantity of hog cholera virus (boOd taken from a hog about to die from cholera.> The dou- ble method usually produces immunity against cholera for life.

IEvEHY HOC RAISER KNOWS
 CHOLERA |s CONTAGIOUS
Methods of Prevention and Cure-Sin- gle and Double Treatment With An ti-Hoa Cholera Serum Properly Given Effective.

Given Effective.
 Every hog raiser knows that hog cholera is a contagious and infectious disease. If no germs were brought into the herd there would be no hog cholera. The germs are frequently carried by dogs, birds, the feet of peo- pie, wagon wheels and running water All new hogs brought on the farm should be quarantined 30 days before they are allowed to run with other hogs. In cases of death by hog cholera all carcasses should be burned. Quick lime is good disfnfectant, and can Another effective disinfectant is six ounce solution of U. S. P. creolin to one gallon of water.
 If hog cholera is in the herds of the neighborhood. vaccinate at once with anti-hog cholera serum. This will not cure the disease but will prevent the healthy hogs from becoming infected.
 There are two methods of vaccina- tion, the single Cor serum alone) and the double Cor simultaneous) methods. By using the serum alone method, there is no danger of infecting healthy hogs with cholera.
 The objection to the single treat ment is that 1t only gives immunity against cholera for a certain indefinate length of time. By using this

you like to see your sons and

North Dakota is at your service.
Now, Mr.. Editor, | trust that
this formal introduction of the
University of North Dakota to
the people of Emmons county
will result in an intimate friend
ship. My favorite day-dream is
that Emmons county will begin
in earnest to take advantage of
the state institution of highest
learning, and range alongside
some of the other progressive
counties in student representa-
ton, with the result that, at the
beginning of the next school
year, the number of students in
attendance will not, as is now the
case, be single solitary one, but
a score or more.
Cordially yours,

To the Editor of the Emmons

Whenever return to Emmons
county to spend part of my sum-
mer vacation, notice one thing
in particular: the people meet
know usually very little about
their state university. Many
people do not even know it's loca-
ton. Almost nothing is known
concerning the nature and scope
of the specific work of this insti-
tuition. This condition of general
unfamiliarity accounts for the ex-
ceedinely few Emmons county
students in attendance. ] Won
der if the people of Emmons
county are acquainted with the
fact that the University of North
Dakota offers to serve them in a
number of ways? Evidently a
formal introduction may be in
order.
