TO PREVENT OATS SMUT

Wherever tried, the dry or spray
ing method of treating seed oats for
smut prevention has become popular
among careful farmers. 1t is easy,
simple, cheap, and effective, and no
difficulty is experienced in sowing the
treated grain.
For fifty bushels of grain one pint
of formaldehyde is mixed with one
pint of water and applied with an
ordinary quart hand sprayer as the
grain is being shoveled over. One
or two strokes of the handle gives
about the right amount but this will
depend somewhat upon the sprayer.
1t is not necessary to use up all the
solution and there is some danger in
putting on too much. The gram
should be shoveled over only once
in this treatment.
Since the formaldehyde vapor is
very irritating, the work should be
done in a well-aired room. Spraying
beneath the grain as it falls will pre-
vent the escape of the vapor to some
extent and insure a more thorough
distribution throughout the grain.
After the grain has all been
treated, it should be covered four OF
five hours, but no longer, with clean
canvas or blankets. The sacks In
| which the grain is to be taken to the
field should be sprayed inside ano
out and covered over in the pile. The
seedbox of the drill may also be
SPRAYED with the same solution.

Think OF This Boy When
Next Loan Is Offered

Carter Glass, secretary of the treas
ury, copied the following note among
others, from the note book of Red
Cross nurse when he was in France:
"One boy shall always remember.
His right shoulder was practically all
shot away and he had big wound in
his back and one in his left eye. But
he sat straight up, and wouldn't let
anybody help him. He didn't say a
word while they pulled off the tight
clinging gauze from the red, raw, wet
eflsh that quivered in spite of him.
When the first wound was finished all
he said was:

Bayard hung up the receiver, pushed

and laughed sheepishly.

He kissed her and patted her back
with doleful tenderness and she went
out of his office into the elevator. Its
ir0n-barred door and its clanking
chains gave it a c~ongenial prison feel

into seemed even more appropriate.

ward effect. He was actually dizzy
with loss of bearings and control.
Bayard had carried heavier burdens
than Clay, and under the sting of
Leila's whip had taken greater risks
for higher prizes. The crash in the
street had found him so extended that
he could not recOve without addition
All help That very morning one of
his brokers had called on him for a re-

Resulted from every door, Bayard
had gone to WethereII's office-a mys-
aeriGus sort of place surrounded by
guards and secret service men to
ward of the menace of spies. real and
imaginary.
BayaFd had unusual difficulty In
passing the lines. The reason he soon
heard A new man was in charge in

He made Bayard describe who and

Only BByard's desperation gave him

Wetherell felt that she had turned
against him and he reached for the
last of the wine to fling it down his
throat. Leila grimly took it from his
fingers and emptied it in the ice
bucket.
"Chauffeurs and champagne are a
bad combination" she laughed, but
there was q sneer on her lips.
"Oh, very wellT Wetherell sneered
in turn. He paid for the dinner and
tipped the waiter with the lavishness
of a bankrupt. He tipped lavishly the
man who guarded his car, and swung
out into the road with an instant
speed that would have been prettier
if there had been less danger.
Daphne and Leila were good sports,
but they were not merry. Wetherell
furnished all the merriment, and his
was from wine and despair. 1t was
the wine that brought out the truth.
He had to tell Daphne what he had
told Leila, of his misfortune with his
bally old government.
He asked Daphne to explain to Bay
ard how sorry he was that he was in

Daphne grew furious. She felt now
that she had justified her presence
here. She held Leila fast in her en-
brace and commanded Wetherell.
"Slow down at once! Do you hear!

They whipped round a somber jut in

Daphne and Leila seemed to die al

There was nothing for Wetherell to
do but what he did. He spun his wheel
and drove his thunderbolt into an
| open concrete culvert. There was a
furious racket. The car turned a
somersault and crumpled in a shud-
dering mass.
Wetherell, pinioned under the wheel,
was knocked this way and that and
his beautiful head cracked on the con
| crete like a china dolls.

no more here. Close by was Daphne

leaping. His very soul bled and he
dropped to his knees, his arm thrown
across that bundle of wreckage which
had been his choice among the worlds
beauties.
He was soon dragged from his COM
munion with his once-more nco
scious bride by the young doctor, who
lifted him up with the Impractical
diplomacy of internes and led him
aside, grumbling: "Say, what you try
ing to do? Kill her? She's weak and
her hearts luttering. Cheer her up
if you can. If you can't, you can't
stay. Better not stay, anyway"
Bayard a~pologized cravenly and
promised better behavior, and was
permitted to steal back to Leila. He
took her n unchanged hand; it was
as beautiful as the severed hand Of a
Greek statue, and as marblish white
and cold.
Fhe inferno led him at length out
into the corridor. And now Bayard
remembered that he had also a sister,
an only sister, in this same tavern of
pain. His heart went out to her. He
remembered, too, that they had a fa-
Their and a mother to tell or deceive.
The inferno assured him TINT
Daphne's injuries were slight. She
looked sad enough when he peered in
at her, though she was far from the
dreary estate of Leila. She was
asleep, but she woke at the sound of
his step, and, turning her head with
effort, opened her eyes and smiled at
him feebly and whispered his name,
and beckoned to him with one weak
finger.
Daphne's heart ached out to him /;
she Rugged him as hard as her weak
arms would let her. She searched her
mind for comfort. She could think of
nothing so comforting just now as a
hearty, reassuring lie. She whispered
tits all my fault, honey. You see,
Mr.. Wetherell was taking me out for a
ride. I met Leila. She told me you
telephoned you weren't coming home

I asked her to come along and chap

He was so grateful, so eager to be
deceived, that he forgot her state and

In gratitude for a priceless boon. The
nurse, returning, saw the deed and
smiled, not knowing what joy Bayard
was taking In absolving Leila of sus.

At such a time we love to bow our
own heads in shame and cast ashes

But Miss Thomas came to court and

doctor since his marriage. She brought
letters the doctor had written to her,
and the judge indicated he would dt-

Then came the philosophy.
"We have both had a disgusting
