it is treated.
observation-disclosures
By this method seer wheat is slow
ly poured, loose, into solution of l
pint Gao per cent? formalin to 40 gal
Ions of water and stirred carefully
for few minutes which causes the
smut balls to rise to the surface.
The smut balls airs skinned off and
destroyed, the wheat soaked 10 to Is
minutes, the liquid drained off and the
wheat spread out upon clean floor
or canvass to dry enough so it can be
sowed. Seed treated by this method
should be sowed the same day it is
treated.
This method may seem rather COM
plicated upon rst thought but in prac-
tice it warks out well. By using two
tubes, they can be made by saving a
barrel in two, and placing one with
hole in it covered with wire mosquito
netting, upon saw horses in which to
soak the seed, and one below in which
to drain the liquid after batch of
wheat has been treated the same sol
ution can be used over and over.
In using any of the methods des-
cribed above, with the exception of
the concentrated, there will be swell
ling of the seed which must be allow
ed for in drilling. This can be easily
done by measuring a half bushel of
seed before treatment and again
the same one-half bushel
just before drilling, thus determining
the percentage of swelling, then set
the drill to sow that much heavier.

Last Friday night the members OF the

by all and the school reporter earned
fifteen-cent drink through the renting
of his turkey hat. So, you see. we all

The movements Of the Seniors are
veiled with mystery. Last night they
had meeting under the supervision Of
Mrs. Lynn. a secret meeting too. and
next Friday they are going to have an
other. The Frosh are fairly bubbling
with curiosity, and maybe with fear.
The Senior girls were rather startled
last Tuesday night. They were quietly
walking up the sidewalk an one of
them turned around an there was a
big ortomobile. OOH! They kindly re-
quest that hereafter ortomobiles keep off
Of the sidewalk. or course they are
amiable and take It in the right spirit.

TO STOP POLLUTION
OF CLEAR CREEK WATERS

Believing that the people Of Colorado
In general, and of Jefferson county in
particular, would be benefited by the
passage Of bill now in the Legislature.
which would prevent the pollution Of
streams. the city council of Golden has
passed a resolution recommending the
passage Of the bill.
r Hundreds Of acres Of land in Jeffer-
son county that are irrigated from
Clear creek have been ruined by the
sediment from mills Of ,Gilpin and Clear
Creek counties. and 1t is to prevent ad-
ditional pollution of this stream that the
farmers of this county and the city
council Of Golden are acting.
If the bill becomes a law 1t would pre-
vent any new mills which might open
from running the waste water into the
creek. Many OF the mills of Black
Hawk have older water rights than the
irrigation bitches. and 1t is not believed
the proposed law could compel Such
companies to put in settling tanks. =

looks LIKE BIG STRIKE
IN THE BECKY SHARP

A streak Of tale ore from three to
six feet wide-the biggest thing In the
Russell Gufch district-was recently
struck in the Becky Sharp mine by some
lucky Idaho Springs leasers-John Mol
lard. II. T. Giller and e. V. Ingels, all
connected with the Argo company.
The strike was made by drifting from
15 to 100 feet from a shaft down 400
feet. The ore runs from SIS to 500 a
ton straight across the streak. 1t is
thought to be the famous old Becky
Sharp vein that has made many for
tunes and over which 100000 law
suit at one time resulted.
Richard Hughes is operating on a
higher level in the same property and
1t was he who first held the lease on
the lower level where this rich strike
was made. The three men are sub
leasing from Mr. Hughes. The Old Town
company owns the property. Six men
are now at work and shipping will be-
gin in another week.-Idaho Springs

ACTIVITY IN RUSSELL AND LAKE

There is a great deal OF mining ac-
tivity in the Lake and Russell districts,
in fact. more than has been report ed
since the war caused cessation OF
gold mining. 1t appears that the inves-
tor is turning his attention to gold min
ing, particularly since the slump in cop
per. NJ, tungsten and other metals,
and this would indicate that the gold
camps are to experience a period of re-
vival similar to that which prevailed
when silver was demonetized and caused
an influx of miners and investors into
the gold fields.
Just at present the two districts mem
toned above are the busiest in the
county. No less than fifteen mines are
working now. and the majority OF these
were started just recently. They are
