Ralph Miller of Syracuse. The last two had to spend the night in Warsaw until the road plows cleared the way through the drifts to Syracuse the next day. , . OATS FOR SMUT “It is approaching oat planting time and farmers are beginning to ask what to use For smut treatment,” says Dr. C. T. Gregory of tne Purdue Agricultural Extension Department. “They want to know about the new treating materials that are being advertised. They read about the effectiveness of these treatments and nautrally many of them want to know what Purdue has to say.” Oat smut and barley smut can be controlled i|uite effectively by these new organic compounds. Farmers peed not hesitate to use them if they wish to do so*. However, why discard the tried and true formaldehyde treatment of oats. It is cheaper than the new methods, if properly used' It is a dry treatment and is sure death to the oat smut. .This is the method. Mix a pint of formaldehyde with five gallons of w ater. Dump 40 or 50 bushels, in a pile or in a’ wagon box. As the pile of Oats is being shoveled over apply the five gallons of formaldehyde mixture with a sprinkling can. Apply it slowly sb that the five, gallons will be scattered rather evenly throughout the pile of oats. After the pile is shoveled over arid the formaldehyde is applied, cover the pile for at least five 'hours with a blanket. Leave the seed longer, if desired/but at the end of five hours the water will all be absorbed by the oats . Five gallons of solution on 40 to 50 bushels of oats does .not wet the seed. It can be sown the next, day or if treated in the morning the seed can be planted in the afternoon. For amounts less than 40 bushels, a smaller amount of formaldehyde should be used. Use this table: 40 or 50 bushels 1 pint formalde-. hyde in 5 gallons of water, 30 to 40 bushels—pint formaldehyde in 4 gallons of water. 20 to 30 bushels—pipit formaldehyde in 3 gallons of water. .10 to 20 bushels— 1 r pint formaldehyde in 2 gallons of writer. A — - Q ’ ’ DRIVER ASLEEP. HOR.<E DRAWS HIM ACROSS RAILROAD BRIDGE IN SLEIGH “Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the Way.” meant nothing to a traveling salesman named McCue, up in the regions of Pennsylvania; where sleighs are no curiosity, as his horse. and sleigh approached a railioad bridge, for McCue was fast asleep. s The bridge was one that spanned the Clarion river, near. Clarion, Ps., on the old narrow, gauge line from Clarion Junction. A. C. Snyder, retired business man of Kane, Pa., formerly a railroad agent and operator, relates that a blinding snowstorm was raging when the salesman made his perilous ride. Tucked snugly away in the cutter and with blankets wrapped around him, McCue became drowsy as the horse trotted along .and finally sank into complete oblivion. When they reached the crossing of the railroad, at the head of the bridge, instead of following the road, the horse turned on the track and crossed the bridge. Meanwhile, McCue snored on, totally unconscious of thefact that the slightest slip ijould send driver, horse and cutter into the depths of the Clarion River below. Ignorance was bliss in this case, and McCue only awoke when the horse stopped on the opposite side of the bridge. It is ‘also related that the regular train arrived at the bridge only a few minutes after the crossing. McCue seems to have placed himself squarely under the tutelage of Old Man Luck on that day.

“Veni, vidi, vici,” stands For Imperial Caesei’s bands. Nelson calls witi» wonu roiis beauty, "Every man to do his duty.” “Give me liberty ,or death,” Our great Henry’s glorious breath. Each was ready. “Boys, do not the ship,” Fell from fallen Lawrence’s lip. “Fire, Gridely, when you are ready, Dewey states in accents steady. 'Still this call rings something new: "What we are called upon to do, “We are ready,” Washington, provoked to flight; James Monroe extends the right; Grant and Lee in opposition, Each fulfillnig conscience’ mission; When the call rings clear and true: "What we are called upon to do, We are ready.” Jefferson authority “cracks”.

Listed we beneath His banner, Tell we by our word and manner, In the fight ’twixt false and true: "What we are called upon to do, We are ready.” j — Henry P. Boggs. The following poem was sent in by the L. T. L’s: . Our Heroes When Washington was a youngster, he scorned to tell a lie: To- be honest, ’ brave and maly, he always seemed to try. And Lincoln from his boyhood, was eager for his books; His mind was great and noble; strong his rugged looks. Our Washington, the soldier, Was always brave arid true;' So Lincoln in his conflicts, came off victorious, too. They both were valient leaders, of this fair growing, land. And trusted One who led them with unerring hand. In both these men we glory—heroes of years ago!. Their lives ring -out their challenge 'L—they’re calling us, and so, We’ll help to build our country, in ) honor strong and free. Arid work as truest patriots for liberty. . We cannot all be Lincolns or Washingtons, you see; But every single one of us a patriot true should be: Strong drink shall never tempt us; we’ll spurn the cigarette; To carry out this purpose, we. our faces have set. —Carolvn R, Freeman.

POULTRY DISEASES MORE PREVALENT Information relative to the occurrence of bacillary white diarrhea, paralysis, arid tumors in poultry, indicate that these diseases are be- [ coming more prevalent in Indiana • farm flocks. Bacillary white diar- ; rhea or pullorum disease is responsible for most of the high death rate which occurs in young chicks, and , paralysis and tumors cause | loss in pullets and mature birjjs - .' Irr 1920, the Veterinary Deptffrment at Purdue University received for post mortem examinations only two chickens that had para/s'sis, and eight •that h There* has been a steady increase in the number of Srirds from flocks in which these diseases are causing serious loss. “Last year we received birds from j 241 flocks that showed lesions of | paralysis and tumors on post mortem i examinations,” said Dr. R, A.

Purdue in a recent address at the University. “Unfortunately for the poultry industry, pullorum disease and paralysis may be transmitted through the * egg, and the tendency to develop tumors in inherited,” he stated. If we expect to prevent these diseases from spreading more rapidly in the future than they have in the past, it is necessary for poultrymen to use only breeding flocks .that are known to be free from diseases , or those in which no cases of paralysis and *tumors have occurred. This is an important disease control measure.” NOTICE The regular meeting of the Syracuse Library Board will be held on May 6, 1930, to consider the purchase of floor covering of linoleum at approximately SSOO.
