BULLETINS BOILED DOWN. 
Farmer’s Bulletin 89, sent out by the United 
States Department of Agriculture, discusses the 
cow pea, giving a very fair description of varie¬ 
ties, cultivation, fertilizing, and also the value 
of this pea for green manuring or feeding to 
stock. 
The Indiana Experiment Station (Lafayette) 
Issued a bulletin on the sugar-beet seed. It says 
the sugar beet is a highly bred plant, and only 
seed of the best quality should be used, espe¬ 
cially when conducting experiments to test a 
locality for sugar-beet raising. The Station has 
a small quantity of high-class seed which it will 
distribute to farmers in Indiana. 
Bulletin No. 40 of the Wyoming Station (Lar¬ 
amie) discusses the trees of Wyoming and how 
to know them. It is a popular, well-illustrated 
pamphlet, describing the various trees found in 
Wyoming, with pictures and descriptions of the 
leaves and fruit. It also contains a strong plea 
for a Government protective policy, that should 
guard the forest and spare the trees. An excel¬ 
lent pamphlet for those who are interested in 
western timber culture. 
Those who are Interested in the articles on 
fumigation of nursery stock would, probably, 
like to read Bulletin No. 122 of the California 
Station (Berkeley). This bulletin gives a history 
of fumigation in California. In that State, a 
great deal of work is done in outdoor fumiga¬ 
tion. Thousands of peach trees are being fumi¬ 
gated each year in the larger orchards. One 
thing brought out in this bulletin is the fact that, 
in this outdoor work, the operators are unable 
to give the exact amount of gas needed, as they 
cannot exactly estimate the cubic contents of 
the tent that covers the tree. A good deal of the 
work is done by guess, and in some cases, too 
much of the cyanide is used, to the injury of the 
trees. All this shows how important it is to be 
accurate in the measurement of the chemicals. 
Bulletin No. 53, of the West Virginia Station 
(Morgantown), discusses commercial fertilizers, 
giving a list of the fertilizers sold in West Vir¬ 
ginia, the State laws regarding their sale, and 
other interesting matter. In former years, w€ 
have spoken of what is known as “ The Natural 
Plant Food,” manufactured by the American 
Fertilizer Company, Washington, D. C. This bul 
letin states how this stuff has been sent into 
West Virginia. The manufacturers wouli not 
comply with the fertilizer law, and attemp'.edto 
dodge it. Analyses cf this fraudulent stuff show 
that it contains one per cent of available phos¬ 
phoric acid, and nearly 16 per cent unavailable 
There is no po'ash and no nitrogen. It has a 
fertilizing value of only $2 per ton, and seems a 
mixture of raw phosphate rock, and green sand 
from New Jersey. This seems to be one of the 
greatest frauds in the fertilizer business, and i> 
seems strange that, in these days, the stuff can 
be sold at all. 
Some Diseases of Wheat and Oats —The Ohio 
Experiment Station (Wooster) issues a bulletin 
with this heading. The wheat smuts are dt- 
scribed and explained, and the process of prop 
agation given Some varieties are moresuscepti 
ble to affection than others; these should be 
avoided. Smutted seed is the usual source of 
smut infection. Rust of wheat, and wheat sc tb 
are also treated. It is noted that treatment of 
seed which successfully prevents Stinking smut 
on wheat is ineffectual against Loose smut. It 
is recommended that grain be soaked four 
hours in cold water, then set aside four hours 
more in wet sacks, and finally treated by im¬ 
mersion in hot water at 132 or 133 degrees F., 
for five minutes. It is stated that the seed 
will be injured by this treatment, and one-half 
more seed must be sown per acre to compensate 
for this injury. The results of numerous experi¬ 
ments by the hot water and other treatments are 
tabulated—also of a large number of trials for 
oat smuts. The practical value of this bulletin 
is Dearly all included in the last two pages, 
where the different methods of treatment for the 
various smuts are concisely given. The hot- 
water treatment as given for oat smut is as fol¬ 
lows: Immerse the oats, contained in a suitable 
open vessel, for 10 minutes at a temperature of 
133 degrees F , seven minutes at 136 degrees, cr 
five minutes at 140-142 degrees. Empty at once 
upon a cleaD floor, and dry by stirring.
