needed to treat a bushel of grain,
making the cost less than three
cents per bushel.
Besides protecting the grain
against the smut, the chemical dust
controls other seed-borne diseases
and soil-borne organisms. 1t also
promotes the growth of the seed.
In tests by university agronomists
seed that terminated only 80 per
cent without treatment came
through with an 86 per cent ger
mination with treatment.
Custom treating services are
available in some communities
where farmers may have the job
done expertly, Leeper said. He
warned, however, that if such a
service is not available, farmers
should treat their seed on the farm
either by the shovel method or the
rotating barrel method, both OF
of which are recommended. Farm
ers treating for the first time may
obtain detailed information from
their county agricultural agent.

May Lose Wheat Crop
With New Varieties

Although Ohio farmers have had
excellent recent wheat crops many
of them still are looking for higher
yielding varieties, and the inquiries
they send to D. F. Beard, specialist
in agronomy, Ohio State Univers-
ity, indicates hundreds of them are
going to pay high prices for seed
wheat which is not adapted to the
Ohio conditions.
One group of farmers inquire
about Black Hawk wheat, which is
an excellent variety for Wisconsin
but produces several bushels less
per acre than Thorne wheat in this
state. Black Hawk is a bearded
wheat, lodges quicker than Thorne,
and the price asked for Black
Hawk seed is way out of line.
Other farmers ask Mr.. Beard
about Pawnee wheat, and he eX-
plains that this variety is a hard
red, winter wheat that would be
much out of place in Ohio where
buyers expect to find SOFT winter
wheat for special milling uses
Pawnee has not been tested for
yields in Ohio but there is little
probability it would outyield
| ThOrne.
The University agronomist be-
lieves there is little reason for
Ohio wheat growers to test new
varieties at their own expense. The
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton continuously compares new
varieties of all crops in the hope
higher yielding or disease resistant
kinds can be found.
The Station agronomists also
produce new varieties by crossing
the best of the old ones. In all the
years. of work with wheat at the
Ohio Station, Thorne wheat is the
best one found either by testing ol
by breeding. 1t has outyielded al
other wheat varieties in this state
over a period of years.

Wheat Smut Termed
Heaviest In History

"Stinking smut, which infects
grains and causes an odorous dust
at harvest time, made the greatest
inroads in Ohio's wheat crop hist
ory," R. L. Leeper, seed specialists
of the Farm Bureau Cooperative
Association, Columbus, said today.
"Ohio State University estimates
that approximately Is per cent of
the wheat this year was damaged -
he said
Leeper pointed out that the
cause of the serious situation was
due to lack of treating seed wheat
last fall and urged farmers to treat
against far greater damage which
might result in next years crop.
All parts of the state were affected
this year, he said, and farmers
took price cuts at marketing points
because of lowered quality
The most effective treatment
found against sinking smut, ac-
.cording to Leeper, is Ceresan, a
chemical dust which is mixed thor
oughly with the seed before plant

Opening Postponed

Marietta-The opening date for
the fall term at Marietta College
has been postponed two weeks,
from Sept. 16 to Sept 30.
According to an announcement
by Dr.. W. Bay Irvine, dean of the
college, this pOstponement is neces-
sary because Of extensive alteTa-
tions being done on both old and
newly purchased buildings, to pre-
pare them for classes which will
be more than double in number
those accommodated previously.
Also, a Federal housing project
now in construction on the campus
will not be completed in time for
the original opening date. Twenty
temporary buildings from Camp
Davis, ~ c., are being erected here
to provide living accommodations
for 1872 single students, and 80
married veterans and their famil-
les. Without these building, it
would be impossible to find hous-
ing for the expected enrolment of
more than SOC
The new opening dates are as
follows: Freshman registration,
Sept, 30; registration for out-of-
town upper classmen, Oct. 2; be-
ginning of classes, Oct. 4.
Students in summer school who
plan to continue their work during
the fall term will register Aug 26-

See Danger Signals
In Farm Mortgages

Increases in the number of farm
mortgages being written in Ohio
during the first seven months of
1916, as compared with the same
period of 1945, call the attention
of rural economists at Ohio State
University to the short terms for
which some of these mortgages
were and to the large percentage
of the purchase price carried as
mortgage debt.
Mortgages were written for five
years, for three years, or payable
on demand reported. Conservative
financial agencies such as the Fed
eral Land Bank now loan up to
65 per cent of the normal land
value of a farm, and some indivi-
duals are selling farms for small
down payments and taking a mort
gage for up to rs per cent of the
1916 sale price.
The rural economists point out
that many farmers lost farms fol-
lowing World War | on mortgages
that ran longer than five years and
when their mortgage indebtedness
was less than rs per cent of the
purchase price. When corn sells
for 81 a bushel, hogs for $25 a
hundredweight, and other farm
products at proportionate prices,
increases of $50 an acre for farm
land do not seem out of line
However, no farm mortgage car
ries any guarantee of high future
prices for farm products, and the
history of farm financing proves
Is, 20 or more years are needed to
liquidate most mortgages. Mort
gage foreclosures take with them
the down payment and all the
years of work between the date
the farm was bought and the fall
of the auctioneer's hammer,
Cold rushes, oil booms, and un-
wise land buying impoverish more

ed down their noses a little at the couple with only one or two child ren.
 You didn't apologize for your children-not to anybody. And that included landlords.
 Then, suddenly children be- came a handicap to anybody who didn't own his own home. People stopped bragging about them, and started apologizing for their ex- istence.
 After all, parents had to com- pete with childless couples for living quarters, and most land lords acted on the theory that couples without homes of their own had no business having lids
 So came the self-righteous No children" and Adults only" ad- vertisements-inserted both by childless couples looking for a place to live and by landlords With houses or apartments to rent.

 But this is the pay-off: No children, smoking or drinking. Now children are being Jumped together with smoking and drinking - all three presumably being regarded as vices.

l wonder whether kids today, eV- en in country towns and villages, get the break you and I got when we were kids-I hope you were for tunate enough to be born and raised in country town. I'm afraid, though, there are not many such places left. Last time I visited Can- andaigua the place was making noise like a city and there were handsome motorcycle cops in evil dence everywhere.
 I'm not Sure-I came away too saddened by the changes that had come to the grand old village of late years-but I imagine they have a regular paid fire department now, probably because the young men of the village can no longer run fast or far enough to put out a fire. D.
 From the Butt-End, as the deni- zens of the flats called our part of the town up on the hill, we kids running to a fire-the fires were al- ways down in the slums or flats, it seemed, got our second wind some where between the Episcopal Church and the Courthouse. Wheth- CT we managed to have a hand on the No. 3 hosecart or not.
 Questioning youths here and there nowadays about this I gener- ally get only blank look-they not only do not know what second wind feels like. but they don't seem to want to find out
 Well, it is like this-I quote from R. Tait McKenzie's Exercise in Education and Medicine
