Production of Small-Grain Crops Can Be Increased by Proper Method. Small grain smuts may. be destroy- • ed very easily by seed treatment, says - the botany and plant pathology divi sion of Clemson College. There was a loss of 5 to 10 per cent of our small- grain crops in South Carolina last year due to smuts. In view,'of the fact that grains are of very great im portance at this time, and in most cases seed from last year’s crop is to be used, it is urged that the seed be treated before planting. Enough seed to sow an acre can be treated for five cents, yet it may save the farmer- as high as $20 for every acre- 1 of grain planted. Rye is not subject so to smuts, but to , prevent smuts of oats, barley and wheat use only the very best seed obtainable, and before treating be sure to have, if possible, the seed pass- light imperfect kernels and any smut balls that may not have been removed at the time of thrashing, f For chemical treatment of seed the w.. (1) Take an old molasses or oil barrel, clean well and fill about two- thirds full with ^formalin" solution-' one pint of,formaldehyde to forty gal lons of wa,tdr. Place about a bushel of seed in atfd tie near the top so that the seed will have free move ment within the bath. Allow each bag to soak In the solution for about ten or fifteen minutes. After tread ing from fifteen to twenty bushels a new bath should be prepared. ^As fast as the sacks of seed are treated and allowed To drip they should bs emptied into a pile and allowed, to re main over night. The seed should then be planted at once or dried to prevent damage. ' ■' . - (2) Place the seed in a pile on the floor or in one end^pf a wagon body, and as you gradually shovel from pn? pile to a new one the seed shduld be sprinkled with the formalin solution The shoveling and sprinkling of the seed should be repeated until the seed are thoroughly damp.. Then place damp bags over the piles and allow tc remain over night. The former treatment is preferable and gives better results as the seed j are more likely to be thoroughly wet I The above methods may be varied by the use of bluestoqe (one pound ol j bluestone to four or five Ukif&nt’ oY I O water) instead of formaldehyde. The { bluestone is likely, however, to prove 1 IQi more injurious to germination, espe dally oat seed. Materials for making the solutions may be purchased at a drug store. Mosquitoes Also Are Numerous and Make Life Unpleasant for Farm ers In the Far North. Reports from every ° corner of the town, where the littleZ garden has been nurtured Into healthful, life by master, maid and milady, are constant ly appearing to the effect that 1 the gar dens are being completely wiped dut, or rather cut off, by a diminutive in ject,' apparently, at first blush, harm less,- the Anchorage Democrat states. The lettuce anil cabbage seem to af ford the best food for the pestiferous little bug and the only barrier that will stop him is a quantity of lye wa ter sprinkled aroupd-each .individual plant. The homesteaders, too, are troubled much in the saftie way, and unless some Wans may be ^developed,' and one more practical than the lye water for big crops, the season’s re turn will not be as ample as expected. And the bug Is not alone proving a pest to the farmer. The mosquito this year Is making life on the farm any thing but pleasant, and, In fact, the swarms of them appearing day and night not only retard mubh of the nec essary farm work, but p'ractieally make some otlt Impossible.

He has bought five tons and has them stored in barn. He says that they occupy less space than old style hulls. To secure the best results snd to develop the ensilsfe edor, wet the hulls thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It is ess? to do* this by wettinf then down night snd morning for the next feeding.

Just as no stream can possibly rise higher than Its source so no‘church can make prqgress faster than its people, says Dr. W. H. Mills, a well- known Presbyterian minister and pro fessor of rural sociology at Clemson Ctoltbge. The piety and spirituality of the church are In direct proportion to the piety and spirituality in the homes and in the lives of its members. So also, the intelligence and vigor which the church, shows In supporting the work of its denomination, Indicate the average intelligence and financial abil ity of the "people of its congregation. A live prayer meeting shows that some m'embers pray at home; a grew ing Sunday school shows that the people are interested in the welfare of the children and the study of the Bible,.

There Is an Intimate relation between a prosperous agriculture and a pros perous chulch. Suppose the crops are in need of rain, petitions are sent up for refresh ing showers. - But again,- crops wilt from bad farm practice—the soil is not In proper condition to retain mols ure. .Then ought nQt. the church to be Interested and take part In teach ing those who can correct this farm management and show the . way Q| to more profitable yields? Since bp- ^7 portune rains, 1 the direct gift of God, and good farming, the result of scien tific teaching," alike produce more abundant harvests, out of which the church Income is paid, "the church should have ~a vital Interest In both and should not neglect either.
