MISUNDERSTANDING SINGULAR.

We learn that in some parts of this town, and at
North Dunvie, as well in other quarters, the po-
totoes in fields all or nearly all rotten This
is the where in the same fields ten days ago the
potatoes were good and sound. And in some instan-
where they have been dug, and all appearance
sound and good at the time, within few hours after
they have become soft, in fact, rotten. This to
be strange occurrence here, as the like has never
been witnessed. Last year, however, in N. York,
and other places, such the with potatoes;
and when eaten, whole families became sick. In
some instances Swine fed them also died. People
should he cautious in the of them.
10 the Commissioners Report on Patents, Sc.
made to Congress, Feb. l3, 1914 find the follow
ing
In Otsego and Schohairo counties N. Y, however,
the potatoes are said to have been "subject 10 dry
rot attacking in the hill and some in the heap,
and fatal to tho whole wherever it made its appear
ance, causing them to rot mud to emit very offensive
stencil. Those who undertook to feed them out after
the rot commenced found the injury to the cattle
greater than the loss of the vegetables Although
the crop originally good usual, there will be
great scarcity Of the arcle'' In the eastern sec-
ton of the State they were, aso ''much lighter than
usual and somewhat discussed and rotted after being
secured, owing to the unhvorabe weather for gath
erng the crop. They-haye black spots, and rot in
the hill and on the way to market"
One who is esteemed high authority on this subject
speaking of the crop, says that 'hrough nearly the
entire extent of the State (and it is said, also in por-
tons of Connecticut, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania
il is rendered almost yaueless by disease new to
farmers here, which, in most cases, attacked the po-
taioes before the dug. Many crops were worth
less when dug romihe ground; and almost all crops
began decay immediately after drying, and rapidly
decnycd ill they extremely offensive putrid
mass. The diseased potatoes said to be poison.
ous and to have caused the death of hogs fed upon
them In this section of the State the disease is not
universal it is represented TO be in other places
have heard of no injurious effects from feeding them
my hogs have eaten them freely, uncooked, down
to the present time December, ls43) without inju-
ry." Another person, also, who enjoyed great adj
vantages for ascertaning the condition Of the crops
remarks that spotatoes suffered greatly from the dry
weather of June and July, and the early crop was
very light one though good in quality. The later
ones seem to have been Injured by the long protrac,ed
rains August and through the fall, and did not suf-
fcient rpen; proved green and watcry; and hence,
in my opinion, the fatal disease among them.''
Pennsylvania, in 1912, stood next to New York in
the quantity of potatoes rased and the crop there,
as will be seen by reference TO the report for that
year good one; but the past year there has

lCPA correspondent of tho Portland Advertiser
relates ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, which occurred at Water
vile short time since Mr.. Clifford, democratic
member of Congress from Maine, was making n po-
tcal speech, in the course of which he denounced
the present Tariff in unmeasured terms. After dis
playing his hand in this way for time, it seems
he caught tartar, for Loco Foco from the town of
Clinton called upon him to explain ,ohat had caused
The difference in the price Of acool? as he sold his for
25 cents in 1s4l and this year he sold it for 40 cents
Mr.. Clifford resumed, and said that Germany had nut
on protective or high Tariff, which caused the rise
of wool in that country and in Europe and that was
the cause of the rise Of wool here and not the pros
ent Tariff The inquirer ihereupon asked Mr. C. if
Tariff, in Germany, would cause the rise of wool,
why might not there be the same effect from SINH
lar Tariff here This took Clifford aback, and the
only answer was, that "the individual who PROFOUND

been very great falling off, and the crop is at least
thirty per cent less thnn that Of 1912. The particu
lar accounts correspond well to the general estimate
In no case have we heard of an increased crop; but
the language, as applied to different sections, is =
"Nearly 80 per cent less, owing TO rot produced
by long drought, followed by heavy rans''--"75
per cent. less they roted in the ground when ripe,
from weeks excessive heat day ana night while the
ground was constantly wet from which fermentation
onsued, except only in dry. Soils an average crop,
but total loss, owing to rot supposed TO be caused
by the excessive amount Of ran and the extreme hot
weather in August; the potatoes rotted in the ground
after being gathered" Another says $40 per
cent less and the quality very inferior-spoiIng
Another : "33 per cent. less, occasioned by dry
weather." Another still 1915 per cent ess,' and
assigns a similar for the deficiency Tho dis
mentioned above also TO have equally in
ured the crop in Delaware, according TO the nior
nation obtained although there might be, in some
sections perhaps, ga fair average" and even"a large
one" yet, when they came to be gathered, they

after, in frightrul Of mutilnon in field near by
in which lay also the boiler, which had been torn from
the wheels with irresistible force, and hurled from the
bed and wheels of the engine, which were entirely
demolished
The watch in Mr.. McCabc's pocket, was found to
have stopped at 90 minutes after ninc, and from this
circumstance the accident must have occurred at that
hour last night
