Land upon which peas were used as a green manure in 1899 produced a considerably larger yield of winter wheat per acre than similar land upon which rape or buckwheat had been us. ed as a green manure, or which had been worked as a bare summer fallow. This experiment was conducted in dup• licate, but for only one year. It is be- ing repeated this season in a similar way. Large plump seed sown in the au - tum of 1896 produced 31 bushels per acre more than the small plump seed:: 6 4-5 bushels per acre mare than shrunk- en seed; and 421 bushels per acre more than the seed which had been broken with the machine in thrashing The same number of winter wheat grains were conducted in duplicate. In the average of four years' exper- iments in cutting two varieties of grain at five different stages of ripening, the results show that the grain cut before maturity does not give as large a yield as that which was allowed to become full ripened. The details of this ex- periment can be more fully studied when they are printed in the annual report of the College for.1897. The average results of au experi ment couducted for five years in suc- cession, in sowing winter wheat at dif- ferent dates in the autumn, show that the seedings of September 2nd and Brd gave of a bushel per acre more than the seedings of September the 7th and. 9th, and 7 bushels per acre more than the seedings of September 17th and 20th. It is found that it is not usually advisable to sow winter wheat iu the vicinity of Guelph later than Septem. ber 9th. PREVENTION OP SMUT IN WHEAT. An experiment in treatiug seed wheat for the prevention of smut has been conducted for two years with quite satisfactory results. Infected seed wheat not treated for smut pro- duced a crop containing au average of 21.46 smut balls per bushel of grain; while that treated with Potassium sul- phide produced an average of 109 balls of smut; that treated with hot water 9 balls of smut per bushel of grain. The hot water treatment which is one of the cheapest and most effectual remedies, consists in immersing seed wheat for fifteen minutes in hot water at a tem perature of 132 degrees F. The water should not go below 130 and not above 135 degrees. Not only is the hot water treatment very effectual in killing the smut spores, but it frequently improv- es the productive power of the seed, as shown by the increased yield of grain per acre. Every farmer iu smut in- feeted districts should treat sufficient seed to insure the harvesting of clean grain for seed next year, DISTRIBUTION OF SEED FOR TESTING PURPOSES. Mrs. Peter Brown and Her Brown Dress. 1 Guelph Goderich St. Marys Blyth.,.. Mrs. Peter Brown was a worthy and thrify housewife, and though proud of her Brown family she got tired of browns—we refer to brown colors. Now, Mrs. Brown had a brown cash- mere dress that she had donned on Sun- days for fully three years. Going to church in sun, rain, sleet and snow for such a length of time had discol- ored and faded Mrs, Brown's brown dress. The material still good gave Mrs. Brown hope that the brown dress could be changed in color and made to do service until times were better and money more plentiful with her. 'Mrs. Peter Brown bad heard of the gnarvellous Diamond Fast Black for Wool, and decided to experiment in -the work of home. dyeibg. The dye was purchased from her druggist and the operation conducted as per direc- 'tions on the envelope, and what a trans formption resulted! A deep, rich aid ,pure black, equal to the finest blacks produced by French professional dyers —a new dress at a cost of about thirty cents. Mrs. Peter Brown's experience is just ^the experience of thousands ;of econo .mizing women in Canada to -day. They •find the Diamond Dyes so indispensible that bame would be robbed of half its - pleasures if they could not procure .these great money -savers. The following three sets of winter wheat varieties will be sent free by mail, in one half pound lets of each variety, to farmers applying for them, who will carefully test the three kinds rounding country this afternoon, there in the set in which they choose, and being a continual stream of curious will report the results after harvest people heading in that direction from next year. The seed will be sent out in the order in which the applications are received as long as the supply lasts. Set No. 1. Set No. 2.

Wheatley, August 11.—A sad event happened about six miles from this place yesterday. The youngest child of William Imeson accidentally swat lowed. some rough on rats. Every ef- fort was made to relieve the little suf- ferer, but of no avail. It expired in about two hours later. Murder Near Galt. Galt, Ont., August 15.—The mystery of the disappearance of Mrs. Anthony Orr, of North Dumfries, about three miles from Galt, was cleared up about 11 o'clock this morning by the finding of the body badly decomposed in a steal• low grave in a porn patch, within tweu- ty five yards of the house. The de- ceased woman mysteriously disappear- ed on Monday morning last and at the same time a shotgun was missing, which she was supposed to have taken with her, with the evident intention of committing, suicide, but why she should do so was not known, as her domestic relations were of the best Although diligent search was made for the mis sing woman no trace of her was found until this morning, when a searching party was formed with the intention of making a thorough search. The party was not long out, when one of the num- ber, wnilc walking betw'ten two rows of torn, in rear of the house, noticed a slight excrescence in the ground, as though it had recently been disturbed, and the discoverer drew the attention of others of the party to the fact. Re- moving some of the soil with a stick they came on the body of the unfor tunate woman. The grave was not two feet deep, and looked as if it had been hastily made, awl the body even mote hastily buried, being only cover- ed with a few inches of earth. The body presented a fearful sight, the head and shoulders being badly tatter- ed, as if done with some blunt instru- meut. It is evident that the crime is one of premeditated murder, as every thing points that way. The intention of the murderers must have been to bury the body of their victim in the freshly made grave found dug in the swamp, about three hundred yards from the house, but a probable disturbance in their work caused a change In their plans. The remain were removed to a shed when a jury, empanelled by Coro- ner Bradford, viewed it, and adjourned until Wednesday at one o'clock in the Council Chambers, Galt, when the re- sult of the post mortem will be given. What the motfve for the murder could be is a mystery. Two arrests have al- ready been made—a young man nam- ed Allison, who was employed on the farm, and a medical student named Treleaven; who resides in Gait. The former has been interviewed several times, and it was evident that he knew more than be eared to tell. The gun was found hid in the barn, but it had not been used, and was evidently tak- en with the intention of throwing su- spicion from the guilty parties. Mr. Orr, who during the past week has been in terrible suspense, was somewhat re- lieved when the true state of affairs be- came known, and many kind friends and neighbors are with him to comfort him in every way possible. Beside the husband there is a daughter and son left. The scene of the tragedy was visited by hundreds from Galt and sur - St. Marys: Mrs. W. N. Ford, of the West ward, slipped and fell on Friday, spraining her ankle severely.; Varna: . Mr, John Sparrow was thrown out of his cart on Friday night last. The horse got frightened at some object on the road, and made a sudden spring to one side, throwing Mr. Sparrow back oyer the end of the cart. He was considerably shaken up, and for a few days had a very sore back, East Williams: The barns of Mr. David Fraser, lot 16, con. 5, were struck by lightning on Sunday afternoon and burned to the grouud, together with most of the contents. The loss on the building and contents will be about $1,000. Insured for $900 in the Lon. don Mutual. Clinton : A young boy, named Prout, who is working with Osbald- eston, of Goderich township, bad the misfortune the other day to get caught under a large hay fork, while on a load of hay, which was about to be lifted into the mow, one of the points running into his thigh, causing a severe wound. Clinton: A quiet but happy event toots place at the home of the Misses Dowzer, Aug. llth, 'when Miss Jessie became the wife of Angus McKelvie, a well-to-do merehaut of Liskeard, Temiscaming. The ceremony was per- formed by Rev. A. Stewart, only the immediate relatives of bride and groom being present. Parkhill : Miss Agnes Elizabeth T. Begg, daughter of the late James Begg, died on Saturday evening last, after au illness of two days, She was ill with inflammation on Thursday night, and in spite of all that the best medical aid could do she died on Sat- urday evening. Miss Begg was 26 years of age, and her many friends deeply regret her death. The bereav- ed brothers and sisters have the sym pathy of the whole community in their bereavement. The remains were in- terred in Parkhill cemetery on Tues- day afternoon. Tuesday afternoon 7. M. Staeb- ler, while assisting in raisiug a flag pole at Victoria Park, Berlin, was the victim of an aceident which might have terminated fatally. He' had been pulling on one of the large guy ropes acid then stood resting when the sup. port gave way.and the pole in its de scent struck him .with great forceon the head and shoulder, forcing him to the ground and severely injuring him. There gra no bones broken, :which is al- most a miracle, owing to the weight of the pole. the time of the finding of the body was known until evening. Around About Us. St. Marys: Alf. Roberts had the first two fingers of the left hand badly bruised at the Maxwell Works on Mon- day afternoon. Cameron's Siding Mr. Cyrus Nutt bad the misfortune to fall on one . of the knives at Mr. Sutton's mill and re- ceived a severe wound on the arm. kit Hullett: The other° day, while Dominick Reynolds, jr., was riding a horse, controlled' by a halter, he was thrown' off, and sustained a fracture of the; wrist. Hullett: George Warner, accident. ly fell off a load of grain onto a large, stone, alighting on his back, which gave him a severe shaking up but broke no bones: St. Marys: On Monday morning while working in Clark , & Carman's flax mill, Simon McDonald had the mis fortune to have the first fiuger of his right hand badly adly bruised in the thresh er. Brucefield : Duncan McDonald met with a 'painful accident last week,. while walkitlg he tripped and fell; he is confined to his room, and, although uo hones were broken, it will probably be a long time before he will be around again as he is in his 92nd year; he has always been a strong energetic man.
