EXPLAINS
OF SEED FOR SMUT

Treating seed wheat, oats and
barley for smut before plant
ing time will reduce the loss
es suffered annually from this
cause in Montana, says Ralph
D. Mercer, extension agronO-
mist at Montana State college:
The most commonly used
treatments are the new i'm
proved ceresan and copper car
Donate applied in dust form.
The seed Is coated by thoroughly
mixing the chemical dust with
the seed in an alright contain
er. An inexpensive mixer can
be made from a steel barrel,
Mercer said, by running an axel
diagonally through it. A tight
lid is fitted on the barrel and
the entire assembly mounted
between two uprights so that
the barrel may. be turned by
means of a crank attached to
the axle.
County extension agents, Mer-
Ger added, have complete details
about treating seed wheat, oats
and barley for smut and also
directions for making a home
made mixer.

Sheriff Bash happened on a gang
killing in 1888. A man ran toward
him with revolver but dropped it
when the sheriff produced a riot

identified as Gargotta, begged for
his life. Mr.. Bash already had killed
two other men at the scene.
Gargotta was acquitted of killing
a liquor racketeer at the same spot,
but the man whose testimony freed
him later was convicted of perjury

Parrots and some ravens have

When We start to talk, the vocal
cords tighten up and nearly close
the gap existing between them when
they are at rest. Outgoing air strikes
the tight cords, and makes them
"vibrate" and produce sounds.
There is one pair Of true vocal

great restraint in opening with q
modest bid of one spade Gas
matter Of fact, South's hand Is

ever, there was no restraint evident
In Souths bidding when he jumped
to the grand slam, for he should
have been well content with q
small slam contract.
West opened with the king Of
hearts. After drawing trumps South
was able to discard one Of dummy's
hearts on his third club. Declarer
next played out his three top dia-
monds, but when the suit failed
to break, he was forced to con-
cede the heart trick to his oppon-
ents.
South could have made his con-
tract. After drawing trun,ps and
playing the three top clubs, all
he had to do was to play dummy s
three remaining trumps. On dunn
mys last trump declarer should
discard his remaining heart. AT
the same time West would be
squeezed, for he could not very well
retain his heart queen and also his
stopper in diamonds. Too bad
south's play did not equal his bold
bidding.

know OF only one instance where
a fearless prosecuting attorney
made them respect the laws of
the state only to receive at the
hands of the voting public that
reward that is said to be the
only compensation for virtuous
conduct. He did demonstrate
the fact that the law of the
land was the law of the land,
and could be enforced, but his
conduct was very irksome in
deed, and so we have new
prosecutor who shows every
sign of being, during his term
of office, their very obedient
servant.
Their influence is so great
that even the iron bars of the
county Jail are not able to pre-
vail against them. Jail sentences,
if imposed upon their friends.
mean nothing more than free
board and lodging, and the run
of the county courthouse, with
weekend visits to their families
sometimes thrown in.
But the course of true love
never did run smooth, and il has
come to pass that since the re-
cent election these directors of
public affairs have had falling
out. 1t is a bitter affair. Said
to be a war of determination. It
has even involved our sheriff and
our o m m s on e of public
safety.
In the meantime gambling
games are being run openly both
in the city and county. Money
punch boards are all over the
county and candy punch boards
are everywhere in the city. The
quarrel does not seem to be over
the return of gambling, The
trouble seems to be over the
division of the protection money
being paid to ensure that the
gambling and the bootleggins
may go on undisturbed.
the bootlegsers ana gamblers
are reaping a harvest, so openly
that a few arrests are being
made, not Of the gamblers but
of the bootleggers. and few
Jail sentences imposed only TO
be suspended as soon as i'm
posed. In the meantime the
sheriff is vowing vengeance on
the commissioner of public
safety, thinking for some reason
the latter is not treating MIN
fairly. and these arrests are be-
ing made for the purpose of
showing him up. He should be
shown up. not to appease the
sheriff. but because he has gone
back on every promise he made
the public when he was elected.
