The foliowing recipe was given at a
Farmers' Instite, as a preventative of
smut in oats, and is -worth trying: -
"Get some formalise at the nearest
drug store ; mix in a barrel in pro-
portion of one ounce to seven gallons
of water ; put your seed oats in a sack
and leave the sack to soak twen ty
minutes in the mixture ; lay tile
sack over the top of the barrell of ter
soaking so as to allow the liquid to
drain back into the barrell, spread oats
out on barn floor to dry; turn two or
three times to facilitate drying, then
sow By treating your oat seed in
this way you will avoid all danger of
smut in the crop and may make a
difference of five or ten per cent. in the
yield."

• HIdes' FORECAST&FOR NEXT WEEK
--After a few mornings of chill and
frost, over all sectiuns central and
northward, change to warmer. with
falling barometer and more April
storms will center about the 13th rind
14th, The transition state of the
season throueh the most part of April
brings, as a rule, scattering " April
showers" at a.lrnost any time. But
this tendency to showers and squalls
becomes decided, general and often
violent as we pass into the regular and
reactionay storm periods. In the
nature of things, hail storms are more
numerous in April than in almost any
other month in the year, flashes of
hail being common from almost any
local and dense thunder cloud.
CIRCULAR TO INSPECTORS-- The
Education Department has issued a
circular to school inspectors, asking
that Arl:or Day and Empire Day be
properly observed in every school,
This year the former falls on Friday
May lst, and the latter on Friday,
May 22nd. Mr. Harcourt remarks:
"Let Arbor Day be a bright., joyous
holiday, devoted to the pleasure of
making beautiful what should be
beautiful, and developing in the
young minds a keen appreciation of
nature. Let Empire Day be also a day
which will foster a healthy national
patriotism and awaken all the pleasur-
able emotions which the love of our
country and empire should inspire."
The circular suggests that prepara-
tions for Arbor Day should begin two
or three weeks before hand, for the
work to be done and the kind of trees
