POTATO DISEASES.
Why DO Potatoes Blight and Rot ?
Five Kinds of Blight.

Ii was supposed until recently that
all of the blighting and rotting Of
potatoes was due to one and the same
cause, but investigations at the Yer-
mont experiment station during the
past decade have shown that there are
several causes which may act separate
ly or in combination to bring about
the destruction OF the potato crop.
II the injury leads to the death Of the
leaves il is called blight; if it de-
stroys the tubers it is termed a rot.
There are at least five kinds of blight
and two kinds OF rot against which
the Vermont potato grower must
guard-and in addition the potato
scab.
These are described for our readers
by Prof. Jones Of the experiment
station, so as to enable any farmer to
know which diseases he has to deal
with. They usually occur in the or
der here given;
~. Arseni,al Poisoning. Due to
excessive application Of paris green.
Commonly causes brown or black
"burned" spots on the leaves. These
may not appear until several days
after the poison is applied. There is
much more injury from this cause
than is generally supposed, and some
times the plants are killed outright.
Remedy: Apply paris green in more
dilute form and more uniformly.
(2). Early Blight. This is a fun
gus disease which causes spots much
like those caused by the paris green.
II may cause complete destruction Of
the tops. IL never produces rot, how
ever. Remedy: Spray with bor-
deaux mixture.
81. Late Blight and Rot. Every
Vermont farmer knows and breads
this old enemy. II requires warm,
rainy or 'muggy" weather for Its
development, but under favorable
condition win sweep over a field and
destroy every plant in few days. 1t
is a fungus. The same fungus causes
both the late blight and the rot. REM
edy: Bordeaux mixture properly APP
piled is a perfect preventive and will
fully protect the crop on any soil and
in any season. This has been shown
by nine years. experience at the ex-
pertinent stasion.
az. Tip-burn. II is very common,
especially in dry seasons or when hot,
dry weather follows a wet period, for
the leaves to "burn," especially at the
tips and margins. This trouble is
worse when the leaves are badly eaten
by insects. Remedy: Attention to
proper cultivation, and spraying with
bordeaux-paris-green mixture.
(5). The Brown Rot is a bacterial
disease, causing the whiting and death
OF the stems, followed by wet ret of
the tubers. This is very destructive
in the South and occurs in the Hudson
Valley of New York state. The ex-
pertinent station experts have not yet
seen il in Vermont, however, Ver-

BODY EXHUMED
Fisher Found Dead Under
 Tons of Weight.

q Never has Tombstone been thrown Into . more gloomy or sad state as today oyerspreads the minds of our eItizens, caused bv the news of the terrible death of Richard Fisher.
 At 4 20 o'clock this morning. after .three days and nights of constant Ssiling, the fellow workmen reached shs dead body of their imprisoned Ecomrade, bat not until ls ID. were they able to eItricste the body from |its wejgsd position among the tim bers and tons of loose dirt that had settled upsn the unfortunate man and crushed the last vital spark from the body of him who, in life, was as good . mortal as ever drew breath.
 When found Fishers body was al- most erect with one foot pressed back ward and both hands firmly held % his breast. Slightly above his head the lumbled msss of timbers formed . protection !.o:n the ground above. also furnished space for air, until the slide came that covered him completely. To e1tricste the body was found most difficult task. The loose dirt, which was cotstantly running. impeded pro- gress and fer heurs was sn effect usl bar to any headwsy. Decom- position of the body had set in and from all appearances Fisher met his death Monday morning. short iy after he was heard to speak the last time. The s1pposi,iou ia the ground about him filled h and gradually buried him alive, visiting upon him one of the most horrible | deaths imaginable. That the un- fortunate mar was spared long suGer- ing is probable from the fact that be- tween the time of his last utterAnces and that oi the one groan, evidently forced while in the throes of death, was of but short duration. All wss silent from that moment; Fisher had yielded to the inexoIabis law of fate.
