They went oil without the child the next morning, whereupon the good people of Eu gene got excited about the babe, and wanted to know what bad become of it. The tele graph was put in requisition to arrest the parties, but the tumult dwindled to a calm, when it was ascertained that the child had been left in Eugene in the possession of proper parties. Miss Iphie Patterson com menced a juvenile school on the 10th. Mr. At her, of Corvallis, has opened a new hotel I in Eugene. The roads are terribly bad. Our busiuess men find money matters closer this month than for a long time pre vious. They say many bills have to lay over until next month. Those posted say that the amount of freight going up the river this season is less by a thousand tons than there . was four years since. The amount of exports is also less, This is occasioned mainly by the great dam age «lone the wheat crop last harvest.

Utilizing Smutted Wheat The Willamette Farmer says that smutted wheat can be made into good and wholesome flour by adding one quart of finely pulverized air slacked lime to each eight bushel» of grain, and thoroughly mixing it before it pa sees through the cleaning apparatus of the grist mill previous to grinding, The lime seem» to cut the smut which adheres to the fuzzy end of the wheat, and is blown out with other dust and dirt. If this ¡8 a faet,. it is new ta us, and is well worth the attention of the farming community everywhere—Jft'niny and Scientific Press. * We assure our cotemporary it is a fact. As one of the farmers in Oregon when smut first made its appearance here, we had some disagreeable experience with the filthy pest. The first means u3ed to get it separated from wheat designed fur bread, was by repeatedly passing it through the fanning mill with all the speed and.wind that could he given by man power ; by so doing, nearly all the smut hulls that remained unbroken would be blown out with the light and inferiorlbvheat, but when grain so cleaned was made into flour, the bread made therefrom occasioned an un comfortable' sensation in persons of delicate stomachs. We then restored to washing th» wheat in order to get bread grain, as there was very little raised free entirely from smut. It was found that washing smutted wheat at the bead of a spring brook within the home lot, killed the trout it contained as effectually as if the brook had been limed. At the same time, the oats of the country were very generally smutted also, and many valuable work-horses were lost, mainly poisoned, as we believe, by eating smutted grain. Where the idea of mixing air- slacked lime with smut ted wheat in order to clean it, originated, we do not know p but an old gentleman named Hawkins, who attended the Salem grist-mill at the time smut was most troublesome in Oregon, was the source of pur information. We tried the remedy, repeatedly, and it never failed. We restored' to the- practice of mix ing a small amount of air slacked lime with the grain, as it was put away in the granary,, and found it to answer the same purpose;, in one trial, which was all we had. occasion to» make, as the use of vitrol in solution, in pre paring seed grain, as a preventative, proved! so effectual as to render tbe lime unnecessary^ Lime is a good article to use about a wheat bin on other accounts than to kill smut. It is a good preventative of rats. Sprinkled lib erally over the top of the wheat, rats don’t find it very comfortable to work amongst. Williamette Parmer. t While Jesse.
