REMEDIES FOR THE PREVEN- ,.TIIOON OF SMUT. RI - PROF. CULTUHRAL COLLEGE, GUELPH.. PANTON, ONTARIO O Clean If there sown, there will sporese no smut uponon the the grain be no smut upon the plants that grow from it. Hot Water.—It has been conclusive- ly shown that smut spores upon wheat or oats can be destroyed by immer- sing the grain for fifteen minutes in water at a temperature of 132°F. This not only destroys the smut spor- es, but hastens the germination of the grain and improves the general growth of the plants. The difficulty in this treatment, is to maintain a tempera- ture of 132 °, for if it falls below 1300 or rises beyond 135 ° , the remedy is likely to fail. Any way by which this temperance of 132°F can be kept up and the grain immersed in it twelve or fifteen min- utes may be adopted. Some persons take.two vessels, one containing water at 110 0F to 120°F, the other water at 1320F. Whatever quantity of grain is taken each time for treatment, it should be much less in bulk than the water into which it is to be immersed. The grain is put into a basleet or bag made from loosely woven m, terial, so as to permit the water to pass in and out readily without the grain strain- ing through. The grain is first put into No. 1 a minute or two, raised up and down a few times so that it may be thorough- ly wet, and heated so as not to lessen the temperature of No. 2, into which it is next plunged and moved about for twelve or fifteen minutes, so as to be thoroughly saturated. . It is very important to keep the temperature of the water in this vessel at 132 s ; if it sinks below add warm .water and if it rises above add cold water, never al- lowing it to reach higher than 135 ° or lower than 130 ° . The grain, after having been raised and lowered into No. 2 several times for twelve or fifteen minutes, is lifted out and cooled, eith- er by clipping it into cold water or by pouring cold water upon it. Considerable smut may be removed before treating with hot water, by placing the grain in a vessel of cold wat- er aid stirring it about for 30 minutes. The smutty grains will float to the top and may be skimmed off. Chemical Solutions.—In treatment by using solutions of chemical com- pounds, there is always a risk of injur- ing, the germinating power of the grain. But this method has been long fol- lowed with much success, usually more in the case of wheat smut (bunt) than that upon oats (loose smut.) In both cases the hot water remedy ranks the most successful. There aro many solutions that have been tried, but we shall refer to only two. It is generally believed that a strong solu- tion used for a short time is better than a weak one for a longer period, especially where the seed is to be sown by a seed -drill. When grain is allowed to soak for a long time, it does not readily pass out of the drill, and hence using a strong solution for a shorter time is preferred. The following are among the best solutions that have been tried:- 1 ried:1 One Ib. Copper Sulphate (blue vitriol) dissolved in 3 gals. water. Wet the grain thoroughly with this solu- tion and then dry it gradually or sprin- kle slaked lime upon it. 2 Three lb. of Copper Sulphate dis- solved in 5 gals. water. Wet the grain thoroughly and ,dry by sprinkling plaster or slaked lime upon it and mix well. This quantity will be about sufficient for 15 bushels of grain. 3 One lb. Copper Sulphate dissolved in 20 gals. water. Allow the seed to remain in this 12 to 15 hours and put it in lime water for ten minutes and then dry. 4 One lb. Potassium Sulphate (liver of sulphur) dissolved in 10 gals. water. Allow the grain to steep in this 12 hours, stirring it from time to time so as to thoroughly mix; then spread the grain so as to dry. 5 One lb. Potassium Sulphide dis- solved in 20 gals. water. Steep the grain in this 24 hours. I was onred o1 terrible lumbago by Min- srd'.a liniment. REV. war. BROWN. I was onred of a bad case of eareoho by Minard's Liniment. MRs. S. E. ULBL01r.

The Eiffel Tower is to be removed from Paris to Baltimore, at a cost of $500,000, and set up overithe latter city as an ornament and speculative enter- prise connected with the Lair to be held there in 1897. If your child is punny, fretful, troubled with glandular swellings, inflamed eyes, or sore on the bead, face, or body, a course of Ayer's Sarsaparilla is needed to expel the scrofulous humors from the blood.

He had one leg thrown over the other, and one arm passed back along the top of the seat, and with the other he waved to the great buildings as they sprang up into life as the day grew. The girl beside him was smiling at his pleasantries, while the rising sun showed how tired and pale she was, and mocked at the paint around her sleepy eyes. The horse stumbled at every sixth step, and then woke again, while the whip rocked and rolled rasi- tastically in its socket like a drunken man. From up the avenue of the Champs Elysees came the first of the heavy market -wagons, with the driver asleep on the bench, and his lantern burning dully in the early light.

The shortest was probably Benjamin Harrison, although Van Buren and John Adams were very short men. The oldest President was William Henry Harrison. who was 68 years and 1 month old when inaugurated; the youngest was Grant, who was not quite 47 years old.

During the year 1893 compulsory pro- ceedings were taken on 1,037 mortgages in the Province of Ontario by the loan com- panies making returns to the Minister of Agriculture. This, of course, takes no ac- count of such proceedings on the part of private lenders. That such proceedings have occurred in Ontario at the rate of three per day during the year, in the busi- ness transacted by the loan companies, is far from satisfactory. The greatest num- ber during any previous year was 892 in 1891. HOW TO GET A SUNLIGHT PICTURE.

Hundreds of birds sang and chattered as though they knew the solitude was theirs but for only one more brief hour and that they then must give way to the little children, and later to crowds of idle men and women. It seemed impossible that but a few hours before Duclerc had filled these silent cool woods with her voice—Duclerc, with her shoulder -straps slipping to her elbows, and her white powdered arms tossing in the colored lights of the serpentine dance. The long gaudy lithographs on the bill -boards and the arches of colored lamps stood out af the silence and fresh beauty of the hour, like the relics of some feast which should have been cleared away before the dawn; and the theatres themselves looked like temples to a heathen idol in some ,primeval wood. And as I passed out "from under the cool trees to the silent avenues I. felt as though I had caught Paris napping, and when she was off her guard, and good and fresh and sweet, and had dis- covered a hidden trait in her many sided character, a moment of which she would be ashamed an hour or two later, as cynics are ashamed of their secret acts of charity.—Harper's Maga- zine for October.

I walked under the arches of the Rue de Rivoli one morning when it was s:, dark that they looked like the cloisters of some great mon- astery, and it was impossible to be- lieve that the empty length of the Rud Cambon had but an hour before been blocked by the blazing front of the Olympia, and before that with rows ofcarriagesin front of the two Columbins. There were a few belated cabs hugging the sidewalk, with their drivers asleep on the boxes, and a couple of gendarmes slouching to- gether across the Palace de la Con- corde made the only sound of life in the whole city. The Seine lay as mo- tionless as water in a bath -tub, and the towers of Notre Dime rising out of the mist at one end, and the round bulk of the Trocadero bounding it at the other, seemed to limit the river to what one could see of its silent surface from the bridge of the Deputies. The Eiffel Tower, the great skeleton of the departed exposition, disappeared and reformed itself again as drifting clouds of mist swept through it and cut its great ugly length into frag- ments hung in mid-air. As the light grew in strength the facades of the government buildings grew in outline, as though one were focussing them through an opera -glass, and the pillars of the Madeleine took form and sub- stance; then the whole great square showed itself, empty and deserted. The darkness had hidden nothing more terrible than the clean asphalt and the motionless statues of the cities of France.
