Indications are that the two dreaded
foreign foes of wheat, flag smut and
take-all, will not become widespread
In the United States. The United
States department. of agriculture an
nounces that the two stutes where
these diseases appeared, Indiana and
Illinois, have taken steps that will pre-
vent the spread of the diseases from
the infected fields and that should
wipe out in a few years the infection
In fields where it exists.
Indiana officials came to the recent
hearing in Washington with adequate
safeguards already placed. Shortly
after the hearing, Illinois established
similar safeguards. All the infected
wheat in both states is under control
and will be disinfected before any use
whatever is made of it. All straw and
stubble are to be burned, threshing
machines are to be thoroughly disin-
fected and no wheat is to be grown in
infected areas for several years.
But Fight Is Not Over.
Under these conditions full conf
dence is felt that neither of the dis
eases will spread from the diseased
areas in Illinois and Indiana. That
does not mean, however, that the fight
against flag smut and take-all is over.
It is possible that one or both of the
diseases exist this year in places where
they have not been recognized. There
is, however, no great probability that
this is true. The department of agri-
culture and its cooperating agencies
have been diligently on the lookout for
these two diseases all summer and
have found no evidences of them ex-
cept in the two areas. Both flag smut
and take-all occur in Illinois and only
take-all in Indiana. The experts, how
ever, realize the possibility that some
infested spots may have escaped OBJ
servation and 1t would not be surpris-
ing if diseased fields are found else
where next spring.
In the meantime there will be no 1etup
in the work Of preventing either of the
diseases from getting real foothold
anywhere in the United States. The
federal department is working with
the authorities Of Illinois and Indiana,
giving them every possible aid. Its
pathologists are energetically studying

VALUE OF BARNARD MANURE
Protection Necessary to Preserve Its
Fertility Is Not Recognized by
All Farmers.

The value Of barnyard manure has
always been recognized, but the protec.
tion necessary to preserve the fertility
of the manure has not been recognized.
The value of manure on different soils
is illustrated by experiments in differ
ent parts of the state by the Missouri
college of agriculture. As an average
of all experiments on outlying fields
barnyard manure has brought a return
OF $1.90 ton, although on some of the
fields the return has exceeded So a
ton. On one experimental field the re-
turn has been at the rate of $40 a
ton. These experiments show that the
farmer who is not caring for his ma
nure is overlooking most important
source of revenue.

FERTILE SOILS FOR ALFALFA

Client In Lime-Turn Under
Sweet Glover in Fall.

Alfalfa will not thrive on poor land
or that which is deficient in lime. Even
soils that are moderately fertile and
produce good average grain crops will
not produce profitable crops Of alfalfa
unless first lined and then planted in
sweet clover, which should be turned
under while it is green and juicy in
the fall or late summer.
Farmers are learning that it is
cheaper for them to lime their land
than it is for the western grower to
irrigate his fields. OF course. the
growing of alfalfa must be learned
just the same as any other crop with
which one is not familiar.

congeries of human, national and ra-
5cial amalgamation, is inclined to sym
pathize with the probable enlighten-
ment of Colonel Roosevelt, who is re-
ported to have inquired of sea cap
tain concerning the population Of a
certain West Indian island, when the
old sea dog replied: "Well, there are
some Spanish, few French, some Por-
tuguese, a few Dutchmen and dozen
other races the Lord didn't intend"
The amazing wonder of all (espe-
cially to North American less famil-
lar with European races, and holding
decided views concerning color lines,
etc), is the manner in which this coun-
try is slowly, and apparently with har-
mony and democratic social and racial
relations, evolving distinct Brazilian
type. The salient characteristics of
what is becoming to be known as the
true Brazilian character include the
aristocratic culture and high intelli-
gence of the old family Portuguese
stock, at once Latin and Moorish by
inheritance, the exaltation, daring and
passion of a vigorous aborigine's blood,
softened by the affectionate, emotional
strain Of the African, especially in
north Brazil-the whole shot through
with typical modernity and enterprise
that marriage and general contact with
European races have afforded. With
IL 4In
of Brazil is being compounded.
| The Latin races are said to be lack
ing in homelike qualities, as compared
with English or Teutonic peoples.
Moreover, the Portuguese, who gave
Brazil formative principles, were more
truly the copyists of Roman civiliza-
| ton than any other European stock,
and the Romans were famous for their
slight attention to the home. Yet Por-
| tugal has been ever a land of homes
and her new world Brazilian daughter
has inherited her instinct. 1t is a land
placing great emphasis on family life.
There, is always danger, in writing of
subject like Brazilian home life, for
! the narrator to overgeneralize. Home
and family life is, like the civilization
generally diverse, and 1t is necessary to
decline the stratum of life one is talk
ing about if an attempt is made to
find universal characteristics. There
is the home of the seringuero or rubber
gatherer in the lonely fastness of the
Amazon wilderness, and the tepee of
the still savage Indian of the forest
Jungle. The fisher folk, considerable

coast from the extreme north to the
