In order that as many farmers in the county that, are interested in treating the grain for smut may be come familiar with this method the county agent will build a smut terat- ing machine and during December will hold meetings in each of the communities oFrtEe~'cduhty at which time this new treatment will be dem onstrated and explained This Home made machine will be used, and It will be possible to secure blue prints of this machine so that the farmers wishing to secure the same can make them.

WHEELER FLIRTS Word comes to Helena from sour ces close to what is going on in polit- . ical circles that the Wheeler forces - are making a final effort to swing certain portions, of the voters who are opposed to a strict enforcement o f the prohibition regulations as concerning drtig stores into line for the Butte candidate for senator. It is rumored that within the last few days certain druggists have been, approached with the suggestion that the election of Wheeler would mean the removal of John H. Metcalf, who temporarily is In charge of the pro hibition director’s office in Montana, and his replacement by a man of less pronounoed views or possibly a less regard for his duty. It is intended, according to report, to create among certain druggists of the state, and possibly among some of their customers, the idea that Wheeler’s, election would mean a re laxation of the rules that govern the legal'distribution of liquor. As the prohibition law seems to be quite plain, it is not made clear in the re port just how this is to be accom plished, unless it is planned to exert senatorial influence toward lifting the lid! • PUBLIC SCHOOL S Mrs. J.~ T.
