Garland county has to date this year threshed already l0,604 bushels of wheat. as against 5y257 threshed las, year This year the production was on 1863 acres of land, with a yield of 6.7S bushels per acre, whereas last year the yield was 1922 bushels per acre
 The wheat yield in this county has been materially interfered with be- cause of the presence of smut, and County Farm Demonstrator White has caused to be issued the following in structions to all wheat growers on this subject:
 The best method to use is the for maldehyde solution. Clean and grade the seed wheat beforehand by running throuh a flaming mill Dirty SACKS. bins and machinery should be dis infected by scalding with hot water
 When using formaldehyde the soaking process should be followed in treating wheat This may be done m an open vat or tub, so that it can be stirred and the refuse rising to the surface, including unbroken smutted kernels, can be skinned off. Other wise, these false kernels, containing innumerable smut spores which are not injured by the treatment, may be- come broken in subsequent handlingI and thus re-infect the seed grain be- fore it is soWn.
 Use one pint of 40 per cent formal dehyde to 40 gallons of water. Soak the seed in an open vat or tub from ten to thirty minutes. Skim off all floating kernels and refuse-then spread the wheat out to dry. Be sure not to let the seed remain damp as fl will begin germination which will in jure the duality and 1t vii be ditticult to use in q wheat drill, This treat ment will not control loose smut.
 ,Wooden tubs, half barrels, etc, may be used for the soaking process. Do no tmix the formaldehyde with tho water until you are ready to use the solution Do not SOW wheat this fall unless the seed has been properly treated for smut if you wish to avoid loss next year

SMITH & WESSON REFUSE
 THE WAR BOARDS FINDINGS
WILLING TO TURN OVER ITS PLANT TO GOVERNMENT BUT
 WILL NOT RECOGNIZE UNION.

Washington, Aug. 30-The Smith and Wesson company, of Springfield Mass, informed the war office today that rather than abide by recent decision of the war labor board it would prefer to have it's plant taken over by the government and operated for the war
 The decision referred to provided for the restoration with back pay of employees discharged for violating a rule regarding nnion membership. and approved collective bargaining be- tween employees and the company
 The company employees 400 per sons and is engaged on many govern ment contracts, including the making of quarter of q million army revol- vers. IL offers, if the government will take over the plant, to have the individuals of the present manage ment operate with any officer placed in charge
 In addition to it's notice to Secre- tary Baker, the smith &Wesson com pany also protested formally to the war labor board upon the decision and expressed a refusal to abide by it. In it's letter, addressed to the war secretary the company asserted that its business history had been "singu- larly free" from labor troubles, and that it's board of trustees saw no req son why it should abandon methods of doing business proved 10 be con ductive of industrial peace and high efficiency for the fantastic method outlined by the war labor board in it's recommendation for dealing with employees"
 These recommendations, it con cluded, in addressing the board would tend to lessen if not destroy the morale of the workers. would promote arguments and dissension, would impair the general efficiency of workers, thereby reducing the pro duction so badly needed by our coun- try"
 The position was taken, the letter to Mir Baker concluded. because the company was convinced that the war labor board would cause demoraliza- ton and dissatisfaction among loyal employees" lack of respect for the management and loss of efficiency fin the production of war materials
