ERADICATION OF CORN SMUT
Fresh Manure Should Not Be Applied
and Rotation Of Crops Should
Be Practiced.

There are things to be done and
things not to be done to combat sue
cessfully the smut of corn which has
damaged the big crop of this year In
various parts of the Northwest.
Fresh manure should not be put on
corn ground; rotation OF crops
should be practiced. Spores terminate
best and multiply In fresh manure,
says f. G. Stakman, plant disease spe-
cialist of the University farm, st.
Paul. Some other crop than corn
should be planted on land growing
smutted corn this year.
Corn smut is not poisonous, says
Doctor Stakman; on the contrary, in
Its early stages it is edible for hui
man beings. 1t may occur on any part
of the corn plant above ground. 1t
has been found that corn smut spores
are killed In the silo.

SODIUM FLUoRID POISONOUS
Does Not Get Into Drinking
Water or Feed.

IF sodium fluorid is used for killing
lice on chickens be careful not to let
it get into the food or water. Don't
pour 1t out where the hens will drink
it before 1t can soak into the ground.
The material is rather poisonous II
taken internally.
Where some of the sodium fiuOrid in
dust form reaches the body of the OPP
orator, and Is allowed to remain for
several hours, local irritation and
burning may occur on tender parts Of
the skin. In busting large flOcks 1t is
better to use table rather than to
hold the fowls between the knees. The
solution does not injure the hands,
even when dipping is continued for
several hours, except where there are
sores, which may become slightly irri-
tated.
Don't allow sodium fuorid solution
to remain In galvanized vessels great
length of time. 1t is best not to keep
1t overnight in tubs or galvanized con-
tainers, as it will injure them.

BACK YARDS MADE BETTER
Contest Spurs Boys and ciris o. Find.
lay to Beautify Their home
Surroundings

More than 100 back yards Of Find
lay, O.. now look better than most
Findlay front yards as result Of an
idea of Council President Frank j.
CollingwOod, whose hobby Is attractive
environments for the home.
Mr. Collingwo0d enlisted the support
of the local Rotary club and the
Chamber Of Commerce In what he
termed a better back yard" contest
as means of heightening Juvenile
interest In Findlay In Improved yards
and home surroundings. and at the
same time lettering the cOmmunity's
outside appearance.
A list of eleven prizes was an
nounced for the contest-one grand
prize for either a boy or girl, FIVE
for boys and five for girls. Mr.. Col
lingwood himself furnished the money
for the prizes, to the extent Of several
hundred dollars
The Chamber Of Commerce took
charge of the routine of the contest
and when the lists closed for entrants
there were score more than 100 In
the race for the coveted awards.
The contest lasted little over q
month, in which miracle transforma-
lions were wrought In many back
yards in the city, by the youthful con-
testants. Working entirely alone. boys
and girls in many instances, the judges
reported, had to start with nothing
but dump heaps. rough. weed-covered
plots and the like. But hoes. rRkes
and spades, coupled with q generous
amount of energy and above ell de-
sire to win one Of the eleven prizes,
brought results, which were remarks
BILE. according to the judges.
In making the awards, 1t want
alone the neatness of the yards that
counted. but the condition Of the
yard at the start was taken into con-
sideration as well and the progress
that was made had a great deal to do
with the award. Gardens were part
Of the required work.
"There must be some real value
in yard identification, or large con-
Germs wouldn't sl md thousands OF
dollars in 1t every year." said Mr..
Collingwood In presenting the prizes.
I'm fact, I am told it does pay real
interest on the investment In better
satisfied employees who like attractive
environments In which to work"

CARS MUST BE WELL COOLED
Refrigerator Should Be Allowed to
Rest on Siding at Least "a Hours
Before Loading.

The careful shipper and packer
should ask the railroad to set the re-
frigerator car on his siding at least "a
hours before he expects to load, for no
man who works to prevent decay ever
loads his poultry into car having a
high temperature. Examine the car to
see that when the doors are closed not
a ray of light enters. See that the drain
pipes are In working order; and when
the car has been iced and sailed for
"a hours take the temperature about
four feet from the floor midway be-
tween the doors. If 1t is below 40 de-
grees Fahrenheit you may load your
chilled birds with safety.

Urges Building Of Flreproof Homes.

Urges Building Of FIreproof Homes.
Fireproof homes, built to last. and
Standardization of plumbing supplies
and builders hardware were given as
partial solutions of the housing prob
lem by DR.. j. w. Stratton, director
of tie National Bureau Of Standards
at Washington, In an address to the
New York building congress. Doctor
Stratton said the greatest waste Of
housing was caused by fire, and this
had an unquestionable effect on the
shortage of homes
Recently I returned from trip
abroad, where / inspected the homes
being erected there and which have
been erected In the past for the laboring
classes" he said. "Those houses are
Of fireproof construction and are built
to last. The construction which has
been going on In this country has
been almost entirely Of wood. Such
houses will disappear In a few years"

EVIL OF THE RENTING HABIT
Dependency on Other Hands for
Homes Marl<s Retro0ression
IN Spirit.

Wien llOusehOlders become renters
by habit. that Is, when they become
willing to depend on other hands than
their own 20 provide and maintain
their homes for them. society loses
much OF that valuable individuality,
that personal independence, initiative
and self-reliance that distinguishes
great people from mass Of people.
For three hundred years the Ameri-
can people have led the world In indi-
viduality, initiative and personal indie
pendence. The fathers pulled out OF
the European huddle In order that they
might stand on their own feet; and
having reached America, they had to
stand alone. Most born Americans
were born of parents who owned their
own homes.
Contentment with huddle, the will
ingness to live in some one else's
warmed and cared-f0r loft rather than
in ones own fought-for and paid-for
home marks retrogressl0n In spirit
from the American way to the Euro
pean way Of life.
However we. may excuse ourselves
for inclination toward the easy COM
fort Of the choreless, commercial, rent
ed compartment, and for shrinking
from the harder demands of the de-
tached, owned and paid-for home; and
however respectable the renting habit
may have become. 1t must be admitted
that our inclination Is phase Of So
cial degeneracy, drift toward the
huddle, the beginning of the abandon
ment Of that vitalizing independence
Of which the owned home Is pre-emi-
nently the symbol and support.-Port-

BUILT IT WITH POTATOES
How the Citizens Of Patricia, Alberta,
Obtained Their Much Needed
Town Hall.

Patricia needed a town hall. Being
only two years old, this was problem
to the infant village In the southern
Alberta prairies. Ways end means
were discussed. 1t was finally decided
to build it with potatoes.
Twenty acres were plOwed and
planted to spuds. Breaking the land,
seeding and cultivating were all done
by volunteers. Everybody took hand.
The community potato patch now
promises heavy crop.
The entire town tends it. When the
first potato plant peeped above ground
1t war a municipal event. The town
fathers called mass meeting to take
action when a vagrant rooster
scratched up plaat. Discovery Of q
weed that had escaped the community
hoes caused as much excitement as .
fire alarm. The potato patch Is locked

Preventive dentistry should be
practiced upon first appearance OF
the deciduous or baby teeth and con-
tinued throughout life. With soft
napkin on the finger, moistened in
fresh or salt water, the infants
teeth and gums should be carefully
cleansed several times daily. This,
while of benefit to the teeth and
gums, also accustoms the child to
dental manipulations, and if con-
tinued will establish the dental tot
let as a routine part of the personal
hygiene of youth. AS soon as the
child has erupted the baby molars,
the dentist should be visited for a
thorough inspection of the teeth. AT
this time painless methods of treat
ment may be sufficient to prevent
or arrest tooth decay. An import
an factor not to be sighted is that
the dentist should not be mentioned
in the presence of the child as one
to be visited with dread. Experience
dealing with the pain and discor
forts of the dental chair should not
be related in the hearing Of the little
patient. This has a close relation
to preventive dentistry, for dental
operations involving pain may be
escaped if skilled dental attention is
promptly and regularly given during
and after intangible Minnesota
