( “Very little smut was found in the 1924 crop, but there was enough smut in the seed sown the next spring to cause the smut epidemic of 1925. Those farmers who treat their seed every year did not have smutty grain in 1925. “A smut spore is less than 1-1000 inch in diameter, and is invisible to the naked eye.

Her aunt’s been doing it for her since her mother—died.” “I don’t want to be an orphan,” jthe newcomer protested passion: ately, a white-slippered foot flying out suddenly and kicking Miss Pend on the shin. It was then that Sally took charge, She knelt, regardless of frantic, kicking little feet, and put her arms about Eloise Durant. She ,| began to whisper to the terror stricken child, and Miss Pond scur- ried away, her kind eyes brim- ming with tears, her kind heart swelling with impractical plans for finding luxurious homes and incred- ibly kind foster parents for all the orphans in the asylum—but espe clally for those with golden curly hair and blue eyes. For Miss Pond was a born “adopter,” with all the after the noon dinner bell had clanged deafeningly, hundreds of ttle girls and big girls in faded blue and white gingham came halt and form a decorous proces- sion just outside the dining hall doors, Sally and her new Kittle charge were among them. But only the sharp eyes of the other orphans could have detected that Sally Ford, keeping a watchful. pitying eye on her new charge, who was only nibbling at the unappetiz- ing food, found herself looking up- on the familiar scene with the eyes thi Sally was permitted to keep her at her side after the noon dinner. It was Sally who showed her all the buildings of the big orphanage, pointed out the boys’ dormitories, separated from the girle’ quarters by the big kitchen garden; show. her the bare schoolrooms, in which Sally herself had just completed the third year of high school. It was Sally who pridefully showed her the meagerly equipped gymna- sium, the gift of a miraculously philanthropic session of the state legislature; it was Sally who con- ducted her through ‘the many rooms devoted to hand crafts suited to girls—showing off a bit as she expertly manipulated a hand loom or ran @ quick seam on a sewing machi: Elotse’s hot little hand clung tightly to Sally’s, on the long trip of inspection of her new “home.” But her cry, hopeless and monot- it of the institutional whine, was etill the same heartbroken protest she had uttered upon her arrival in the dormitory: “I don’t want to be an orphan! If don’t want to be an orphan, Sal-lee!” “It ain’t—I mean, isn’t—so bad,” Sally comforted her. “Sometimes |& lots of fun. And Christ w'fly nice, Every girl gets an orange and a little sack of can- dy and @ present. And we have turkey for dinner, and ice cream.” “My mama gave me candy every day,” Eloise whimpered. “Her igen friends 1s it to Rer—boxes and boxes of it, and flowers, too. God was mean to let her die, and make an orphan outa me!” And because Sally herself had frequently been guilty of the same sinful thought, she hurried Eloise, without rebuking her, to the front it the child who clung forlornly to Sally’s hand was a newcomer. The golden curls had disappeared, and in their place were two short yel- low braids, the ends tied with bits of old shoestring. The small face, scrubbed clean of its powder and rouge, was as pale as Sally's. And instead of lace-trimmed pink crepe de chine, silk socks and white kid slippers, Eloise was clad, like every other orphan, in a skimpy frock of faded gingham, coarse black stockings and heavy black shoes. And when the marching proces- sion of orphans had distributed itself before long, backless benches, drawn up to long, narrow pine tables covered with torn, much- scrubbed white oilcloth, Eloise, coached in that ritual as well as in many others sacred in the in- stitution, piped up with all the others, her voice as monotonous as theirs: “Our heavenly Father, we thank Thee for this food and for all the other blessings Thou giveth us.” March, 1927, Losses have been ight. In South Dakota sheep have gone through the winter in good shape. Bulk of wool contracted for at 33 to 40 cents. Some lambs at 10 1-2 cents. In Montana large part of the wool contracted for at 33 to 40 cents, and lambs at 10 to 11 cents. Wyoming sheep have win- tered well, and feeding has been light. Much of the 1928 wool cli has been contracted at 32 to 3 cents, and lambs at 10 1-4 to 11 1-2 cents, For the 7 ~yestern range states, generally, sheep have wintered well. Ranges were generally open with some feeding where desert range was short. Range sheep are in very good condition and winter losses have been very light. Rains have improved the sheep ranges in the southwest. Early lambing has been good with a few more ewes lamb- ing than last year. Breeding ewes are in good flesh and the lamb erp prospects are good, barring bad spring storms.
