Look Out for Sorghum Smut

A 4O0-ton silo exploded near
Downs, Kansas, recently within "a
hours after filling, according to GER
tain newspaper reports. The large
amount of smut present in the sor-
ghum used for silage was suggested
as a possible cause.
Smut may or may not be to blame
for this explosion, but anyone who
works in a silo when smutty sorghum
is being blown in soon learns that the
dust is very unpleasant, to say the
least, There is an unusually large
per cent of smut in most sorghum
fields this year. Two kinds of smut
are present. Kernel smut, which af-
fects each seed separately, is most
common. Head smut, which forms
solid black mass with no signs of any
individual kernel structure, is also
abundant in some fields.
The smut attacks ali sweet sor-
ghums and kafirs. Milo and feter-
tia are not subject to smut.
Kernel smut can be prevented by
seed treatment before planting. The
seed should be soaked from 80 min
utes to two hours in solution of 240
parts of water and 1 part of formal
dehyde.
Head smut cannot be prevented by
seed treatment. It's spores live over
in the soil Fields infected with head
smut should be planted to milo or
feterita the next year, or not farmed
in sorghums at all.

tunity to obtain the best that medical
science can offer right at home. He

citis, gall stones, ulcers of stomach,
tonsils or adenoids.

heart, kidney, bladder, bed wetting,
catarrh leg ulcers and rectal ailments.

CONSISTENCY THOU
ART A JEWEL

The regular Republicans and the
Townleyites each met at Bismarck
last week and organized for a cam
paign. Each passed resolutions en-
dorsing the Republican principles az
laid down in their platforms since
Lincoln's time and accepted the is
sues as now advocated by that party
There were men in the Townley
bunch who have been life long enc
mics to the principles Of Republi-
canism. They sat there swallowing
everything that the bosses saw fit
to embody in the resolutions that
they thought might catch the voters
and when it came to voting they act
ed like the members did at the fam
GUS caucus" in the legislature two
years ago. RI
The Pioneer Express believes that
the greater portion Of these men
who framed the resolutions for the
Nonpartisan party were insincere
and that they should be considered
<as such. ..
Let us take 9 view of the leaders
Of the Nonpar tisan party IN this
county Practically every one Of
them are Demo Gratis at hear. They
have done every thing Ia their power
I to destroy and discredit the issues of
the Republican party since ws can
remember. They lave not only op-
posed everything TINT the true re-
publicans cherished but they have
allied thenselves With anything TIT
wonld further their party principles:

ERUCTIoN IN CAMP.

How large is the crops Of easy
marks. This question will be asked
by large number of the intelligent
public when they read reports of the
split in the Nonpartisan ranks in
this state. One calls the other liars
and the other retaliates by charging
crookedness and dishonesty: The
trouble with the heads of the Nom
partisan League as the Pioneer Ex-
press sees il. is that they are lavish
ing in too much money that is thrust
upon them by the members of the
league, which is principally farmers.
According to one of their official
organs a short time ago, it can be
estimated that the money contributed
by the farmers for campaign pur-
poses this year alone is over two
million dollars.
With this enormous amount Of
money at their disposal, without
having to make accounting to the
doners or anyone else the discord
came about. It is not because the
Messrs Townley and Lembke are
bigger crooks than they were when
Messrs Waters and Brinton were
doing their bidding in managing the
Bank Of North Dakota and framing
the famous Brinton newspaper bill.
These people are the same as they
were when they trained together:
But it is over the dividing of the
spoils that the scrap was brought
on: Waters and Brinton are famil-
lar with the management of this
political organization from the fact
that they were part of the combine.
The Grand Forks American and the
Fargo Courier News are devoting
columns Of space to show up the
crookedness of Waters and Brinton:
If they will refer to their files they
will find columns written in defence
of these gentlemen when their acts
were criticised by the Pioneer Ex-
press and others during the sitting
OF the legislature two years ago:
These gentlemen were then the far
mers' friends and we were working
against the interest of the farmers,
according to the Townley kept
press What a change: Either the
Pioneer Express was right in its
criticism at that time or the Town
ley kept press is telling a lie now.
Which is it. When thieves fall out
honest people will get their just
dues.
How large is the crop of easy
marks at the present time. We
think that next falls election will
see wonderful falling off.

Republicans are raising $15,00O,OO0

"You will find It generally true that

THE reason is that the japanese,

japanese firm which ordered print

been copied and none of the presses
would work"
