In accordance with the call published tbe week before, a fair number

here with the following officers: Post

Commander, Rolland Dyer; Adjutant,

will hold meetings every two weeks,

One of our  correspondents   speaks
of  the  sale  of  three   farms   in   that
-neighborhood within a feat days   audi
then  tnqutres,   "What- dees  all'this
mean?"    We sbouid say that it means
such treatment for corn.   Corn
is not spread through the seed."
Control methods for corn smut
include a rotation of crops in order
to avoid planting corn on ground
infected the year before, and tbe
cutting out of all smut early—before
it matures enough to spread in tbe
powdry-form. Smut wbich is cut out
should always be burned or burled.
If it is left in or near the field it
will mature and spread just as well
as if it had not been cut oft tbe
plants.
Seed corn can be selected from
smutty fields with perfect safety,
according to Dr. Coons. Tbe fact
jbhat tbe smut is not spread tbrougb
tbe aeed makes tbis possible, and
tbere is no reason wby tbe farmers
sbouid hesitate to use good seed
selected from a field which is infected
with smut.

The terrible storm of Saturday

With tbe bight cost of ail building

aud come here and buy one just -as
