College, Giving Much information Valuable to Farmers. Maturity of \V’inter Wheat For Seed Purposesâ€"Seed taken from wheat which was allowed to become very ripe before it was cut produced a greater heavier weight of grain per measured "bushel than that produced from wheat which was out at any one of four earlier stages of maturity, according to the average results of fourteen separ- ate te’sis. Selection of Seedâ€"Selections of seed were made from two varieties of winter wheat and tested for six years produc- , ed average annual results in bushels of . grain per acre, tons of straw per acre, 1 and pounds per measured bushel as follows: Large plump seed, 46.9 bushels, seed, 40.4 bushels, 2.2 tons, and ~59.2 ‘ pounds; shrunken seed, 39.1 bushels, 2.1 tons. and 59.1 pounds; and broken seed, 9.3 bushels, .6 ton, and 54.2 pounds, respectively. Quaiity of Winter Wheat to Sow.â€" The average yield, less the amount of seed used, from sowing one bushel, one per acre in each of six years, have been 39.7 bushels, 42.3 bushels, and 42.4 bushels per acre, respectively. Southern and Northern Grown Winter ‘Wheat Seedâ€"Seed wheat grown a thousand miles south of Guelph gave practically the same results as Ontario grown seed in the average experiments .of two years. Dates of Sowing Winter Wheat-â€" ‘Winter wheat sown at the College {luring the first ten days of September in each of nine years has yielded 5.2 "bushels per acre more than that sown 'from the 16th to the 20th of September. Methods of Sowing Winter Wheat.â€" “The average results of sixteen experi- ments, covering a period of eight years. show that on wellâ€"cultivated land winter wheat which was drilled in with :a machine, and that which was sown 'broadcast by hand, gave practically the same yields of grain per acre. Green Manuring For Winter Wheat. â€"â€"â€"â€"Land on which field peas were used :as a green manure yielded 6.5 bushels ccf wheat per acre more than land on "which buckwheat was used as a green' 'manure, and 2.3 bushels per acre more than land which was worked as a bare fallow, in the average of eight separate tests. . Treatment of Winter Wheat For Smutâ€"In each of five years, experi- ments have been conducted in treating winter wheat in different ways to kill 1he stinking smut, and the results have "been very satisfactory. In the autumn <~of 1903 seven different treatments were "made with each of two varieties of wheat. In the crop of the present year 1he wheat produced from treated seed '.had no smut, and that from untreated .secd had 3.6 per cent. of smutted heads. . "The treatment which ~simple, cheap and effective was the im- 'mersion of the seed wheat for twenty minutes in a solution made by adding .one pint of formaldehyde (formalin) to , The past ‘ . “None to speak of. Just a few mil- i‘orty-two gallons of water. year was the first time that we used '1 he formalin treatment as a part of this experiment. In the average of five years’ experiments, it was found that rutreated wheat had 268 smut balls, per pound of wheat; while that treated with potassium sulphide, bluestone, and hot water 'had only nine, ‘two, and one smut balls, respectively. The copper suiphate (bluestone) treatment con- sisted in immersing the seed twelve proved very AN IMPORTANT JUDGMENT. Light Co. Must Put Wires Underground Or Be Liable for Damages. Montreal, June 28.â€"-The Court of Re view yesterday morning gave a very important judgment in a case against the Montreal Light, Heat & Power Co. Last year a man named Curde, oper- ating a derrick, struck a live wire and was killed. Another ran to his rescue and was stunned, while yet a third, in trying to rescue them got a shock though their bodies and was killed. A ’ jury gave Mrs. Crude $8,000 damages, but as this was the first case of the kind in the Province the judge referred ’ it to the Court of Review. The company applied to have the judgment reversed, not only on the facts but on the extraordinary argu- ment that their charter gave them the rights to put up their wires as they pleased, and it was for the public to avoid accidents. . The Court of Review replied to this that any powers obtained from the Government were subordinate to the civil law, that special law or no spe- cial law the company must take the best way to avoid accidents with its wires, which was to put them under ground. They therefore upheld the judgment for the full amount. . “...,.__._-_-â€"â€"-â€"-- Sewer Caved in.

Two other la- borers succeeded in digging him out, after which he was removed to the hospital. He was badly injured on the body and head. ~ .___â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"- ‘A Big Tidal Wave. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., June 28.â€" 'A tidal wave Monday night scattered a raft of 2,000 cords of wood along the shore of Tquamenaw Bay. This is the second tidal wave within a month. At some places it lifted piles of timber from the shore and then carried uhem out into the lake. The wave extended for miles. ________.___.__... Canada In Pennsylvania Fair.
