SMUT CAUSES LOSS IN oAT CROP

Oat yields in Ohio can in most cases
be increased 5 per cent. if farmers
treat their seed oats for smut. is the
opinion of ]. G. Humbert, assistant
botanist at the Ohio Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station. Because of the un-
usually wet season last year many
farmers secured increased yields of
10 to 20 per cent by spending a few
hours in treating their seed just pre-
vious to planting time. In all tests
the results at the Experiment Station
show that the increase in yield has
paid the farmer well for time so
| spent.
One pint of 40 per cent. formalde-
hyde, or so-called formalin, to 40 gal
Ion of water is recommended for 40
to As bushels of grain. The oats are
spread on canvass or a clean floor and
moistened thoroughly with the liquid.
Any sprinkler may be used while the
oats are shoveled over. After being
covered with blanket over night, the
grain is spread out and shoveled over
frequently until dry enough to SOW
Grain sacks and the drill should be
treated with the same formalin solu-
ton.

DOES 1T MATTER?

John Smith, the average man, car
ries life insurance policy or has a
mite in the savings bank or both.
If it has ever occurred to John
Smith that it does not matter to him
whether the railroads get a square
deal or not. perhaps he would be in
terested in knowing his exact rela-
tiorehip to the railroads.
The capital securities of the Amer
ican railroads with their 250,000 miles
of line amount to about 1880, ,000,-
900. The federal valuation of the
American railroads last year discov-
cred. or rather confirmed, what was
already known that 10 per cent Of
these securities are held by insur-
ance companies and savings banks.
These concerns invest their surplus in
he railroad securities.
Now, let John Smith, if he dares
rav that it doesn't matter to him what
becomes of the railroads and their
7ecurities.-Public Service Magazine.

TIME LOST.

Does it pay to plow ground for oats
and to clean the seed for this crop?
These questions are answered by F.
A. Welton. associate agronomist of
the Ohio Experiment Station, in the
February Monthly Bulletin, in which
he says that farmers are frequently
misled by such practices. Six years.
results at the experiment Station show
that disked land has given greater
yields than plowed soil, and the cost
of preparing the seed bed has been
much less. The only objection to disk
ing is on land where weeds are un-
usually abundant or on exceptionally
heavy, clay soil.
Cleaning seed oats to remove all
the small grains has likewise been un-
profitable. Yields are increased so
slightly by repeated cleaning of the
oats in a tanning mill that Mr.. Wei
ton advises only the removal of dirt
broken straw and weed seeds in the
grain.

LIGHTNING RODS
PROTECT STRAW STA,


For several years an Iowa farmer
has protected his straw stacks with
lightning rods in the same manner
that he protects his farm buildings.
The uprights on stack are supported
on footboard which runs the full
length of the stack, along the ridge.
The rods are grounded through gas
pipes, the lower ends of which are
buried deep in the earth. This appar-
atus is used from year to year. When
a stack is to be removed the cable
and rods are rolled up and put aside
until new stack has been built. The
device can be quickly and easily in
stalled. Though IL trees on this
farm and three barns on neighboring
farms have been struck by lightning
in recent years, the barns and stacks
on this farm have so far enjoyed COM
plete immunity from damage by light
ning.-From the April Popular Me-
chanics Magazine.

HAS THE LIGHT DAMNED?

One would almost think that the
Columbus morning paper was doing
penance. Scarce two weeks ago it
carried an editorial bewailing the
fact that the Supreme Court of Ohio
had been bereft of its jurisdiction un-
til it was left stripped of its power
and had nothing to do but take a va
cation and go home. Now in its edi-
torial columns its 1aments:
"We are actually oppressed and
strangled by the multiplicity of our
governing forces. We are trying to
have a law for every whim, footstep,
pleasure, profit, fancy and all the lit
tie turns and twists of life and thus
amplifying the government to take
care of them all. The simplicity of
our forefathers wouldn't stand for it.
nor would we. God runs this entire
universe on a half a dozen laws, and
yet we take thousands of laws to run
Ohio. 1t would not be SO if we re.
sorted to the simplicity of the found.
ers of the republic"
When the former Governor of Ohio
was ramming these multiplicity Of
laws through the legislature under
whip and spur, denouncing those WHIT
dared to life a protesting voice as
"Barn Rats, he had no more stauncl
advocate than this same journal. Il
something like thirteen hundret
pages of new laws, the legislature O.
1913 sought to regulate everything
from the creation of dragmasters'
for every six miles of public roads il
the state, to the creation of inspec
tors and license officers to inspect an,
collect license fee of thirty dollar
from every quarryman who sold
wagon load Of crushed limestone t
a farmer to be spread upon his soil
to say nothing of a multiplicity of bot
bigger and hitler things; and all tn
while the power behind the thron
who wrote these reams of laws regu
lating "all the little turns and twist
of life", was ably supported by thi
selfsame journal.
This sort of "amplifying the gov
ernment" was then widely bruited a
Constructive legislation; and whe
the last General Assembly began
uproot some of these obnoxious legis
lative weeds, it was denounced a
"reactionary" and advised 'to adjour

dawned, and that those who thu
