Over It 1-2 per cent of tlio who-' crop and 1 per cent of the rye crop i lost through smut. Seed treatment with forma'.dehyd solution is practically 100 per cent efficient except in a few section? where the soil is badly polluted witsmut spores. The formaldehyde treatment costless than 5 cents ppr acre for mate rials and labor. To this must be add ed in extreme cases the cost of 20 p? r cent of the seed grain, the germinating power of which may be destroyed because of seed injury. In every case the entire cost of the treatment together with possible seed injury is much less than the value of the increased yield which it assures. Now that, because of world shor - I age, every bushel of wheat and ry ! counts for more than ever before, th safe-guarding of the next cr< jjs 01 these grains against diseases by ti e treatment of seed before planting is of greatest importance, says the United States Department of Agri i 4 :I :t s i. ,i I I HUH.'. LIIll ilL ?(?!.* liUKU> mate that the atoragh annual lbs.' due to the smuts of wheat and ry. amounts approximately to 2?,f00,00 bushels. This is equal to about 3 1 per cent of the entire yearly whea crop and disregarded as a conserve tive estimate, since only smutteu heads actually lost are considered The increased number of heads which hralthv plants would h ive thrown out were not taken into account: -The lhSs to the billion-bushel wheat crop the Department hopes to sec harvest'd next year would, at 3 1-2 per cen\ amount to 35,000,000 bushels. With wheat selling at $2 a bushel this Xvould amount to an exceedingly high un the farmers of the country. Treatment of Seed. Ti'eatment of wheat against stinh ing smut is fairly easy,. , not exper. sive, and fully Do psjr cent effective. The efficiency of the treatment, is i fact, practically 100 per cent in mo. * of the wheat-growing regions. Th percentage of efficiency for,.the courv try a whole, however, is reduced n; the fact that in large regions in th Pacific Northwest the soil is pollute with smut germs to such an exton. that the effects of seed treatment ur. negatived. Seed treatment cost* not to exceed 5 cents an acre for materials and labor. To this cost, however, must be added the cost of grain, the germinating power of which may be destroyed by the treatment. Thi.i amounts at the most to 20 per cent. In every case the value of the wheat saved by treatment would amount to several times the cost of treatment. Statistics show that the average an nual loss of rye from smut is about 1 per cent?considerably less than the loss of wheat. It is well worth while, however, to treat rye seed also.

The grain should first bo cleaned thorough l.v with a fanning mill so that smut balls, shriveled grain, chaff, etc., will be removed. After the grain is clean it may be spread on a floor or a tarpaulin in a layer or pile several inches thick and sprinkled with a solution of formaldehyde made by mixing 1 j I pound of commercial formaldehyde with 4o gallons of water. An ordinary sprinkling can or a spraying machine is used and the grain is shoveled over and over until every 1 kernel is wet. The grain is then plac. , cd in a pile and covered with sacks, blankets, or a tarpaulin for 2 hours I or over night. It is then dried suCf' j [ciently to be run through the drill, I after which it may bo sown.

A letter written March 8, 1916, by Von Eckhardt, former minister to Mexico, who was concerned in the notorious Zimmerman plot, was intercepted by American officials while em route to the imperial chancellor. Ifc discloses that Folke Cronholm, former Swedish charge at Mexico City, rir tually was employed by the Germare legation to furnish information from the "hostile camp." The letter asks that the imperial government recognize the srevices of Cronholm by awarding him the "Order of the Crown of the second class.'* As an added chapter to the story of the recently revealed intrigue ire Argentina, the disclosures gives a hint of the nature of the evidence ire this government's possession of Germany's illegitimate use of neutral diplomats. The full extent of this evidence mnv never hn nni>:iSwwi u..?. t, . V. ^V puu(ioui;U| l/Uli \z is known to be complete, and this government's action in making some of it public is not felt to be directed so much at Sweden as to further Informing the world at large of Germany's practices. It does, however, raise ?nmo specu!: tion as to how the Stockholm foreign office will explain it. Stockhelm has declared thai l>aron luaven, Swedish min'stor to Argentina, transmitted messages for Count lue:burgy the Herman change th,,ve. without k owing their contends. \V) t r ;1\3 same defen ;e will be made for (,'ronholm is not known.

Von Eckhardt's letter to the German chancellor recounter the extent to which Cronholni used Sweden's dip 'omatie privileges for Germany and ho* recommendation of an imperial d?v vatjon for him is regarded by Al ip<l dip'omats here as further evi Vnre of th?*ir charge that Germany as distributed decorations among the ''o'omats of Oienilv neutrals for u *h services probab'y in other intunces.
