To Destroy Smut in Wheat-
'l'ho August bulletin of the Kansas Ex-

our ('010118(0.
It i0 to well innown fact that snout and
similar growths are due to parasitic fungi,
which propagate by spores (similar to seeds
of other plants), those spores beinl,g, in the
case of wheat smut, the black stinking pew -

I11 threshing these grains 11,00 broken, the
spores are scattered over healthy grains with

of the young plant microscopic threads,
which grow with its growth, and 10)1011 the
wheatiteads out they penetrate the grains
and there absorb the nutriment intended
for the grain and convert it into the foetid
mutt,
Know'in'g this history of the smut, itis
easy to understand that any treatment that
will kill the spores of the shut on the seed

ground I buried my face fn my aryls, but
whenever I looked up and sew the perspir-
ing faces, protrudent eyes and woebegone
appearance of the coolies end the intense
anxiety depicted an "L's" face lest my gig-

"The 'rogue' teas close here, had been ly-

Crossing this woo.begon and forlorn vil-

would go and reconnoitre and see if the

our cheaper restaurants arc now guilty of,
to offer coffee with milk. On the contrary
it seems to ns th1t tea gains nothing, but
rather loses some of its delicacy of favor
when served with cream, gaining a body
that is inconsistent with its 001,11'e. There
are none of the breakfast cereals that are
not doubly delicious served tvitil cream. A
pasty, half cooked dish of oatmeal served
with titin milk is quite a different dish

particularly delicious in whipped cream
served with any kind of sweet fruit.

paratively rare thing it is to sos them

may be made with a foundation of cream,
Char/011e R1183o 10001,150 tho simplest of

is acquired. This can be done with an
ordinary egg whip, but most persons

about ten inches long. Creast can he rapid-
ly beaten in such a churn. As the froth
rises it is skimmed ole on a sieve, which is
planed over a pan to drip, There is always
soma cream in a quart that will not beat to
a froth, and this will clrein into the pan and

Whipped cream proporlyllavored and sweet-

fruit completes the dish. All iced or cold
pudding made with a mixture of whipped

one of the best desserts we have.
