They went oil without the child the next

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.
