OUR FARMERS.
ROYALTY FOR DILUTION
SEPARATORS.

A considerable number of farmers
in Vermont as we'll as in other states
have been persued within the last
two years to buy So called gravity
cream separators. The first cost
! of these implements is not large, and
many are led to believe that they are
getting a separator at small cost. 1t
the past that these implements are
not separators in true sense of the
word, and that they are very waste
full Of butter fat, doing then no better
work than the shallow pen system.
They are, therefore, costly in the long
run. The facts concerning their in
efficiency have been brought out by
the Vermont experiment station in
their publications and were published
in the columns of this paper some few
months ago.
A new feature has now appeared in
connection with this method Of cream
raising. Parties have been going
about the state demanding royalties
from all farmers who use the dilutiOn
process in any form of can except
that controlled by the agents. The
agent claims that the process is
patented, and that the farmer is in
fringing on the rights of the patentee.
AS matter of fact no patent exists
on any such process. The Cornell
experiment station calls attention to
the fact in one of their recent bulletins
that no less than ten different styles
of apparatus in which this is used
have been patented within the last
eighteen months. In only one case
out of the ten patents examined is the
word dilution used, and that case is
not now in question.
This method of cream raising has
been in use for ten years at least. 1t
has been thoroughly tested by the
experiment stations and by practical
da1rymen. 1t was reported upon as
long ago as 1890 and widely advertised
at that time. 1t is, therefore, out of
the question that the process should
now be patented.
If any farmer wants to vast his
cream by the dilution process he can
do so without paying royalty to
anybody. On the contrary, any farm
er who is approached by these royalty
collectors would be doing his fellow
men a good turn if he should report
the matter at once to the proper au-
th0rities and have If looked m Such
men are doubtless subject to action
at law for obtaining money under
false pretences.

WHY DO POTATOES BLIGHT
AND ROT?

1t was supposed until recently that
all of the blighting and rotting of po-
tatoes 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
separately or in combination to bring
about the destruction of the potato
crop. If the injury leads to the death
of the leaves it is called a blight; if it
destroys the tubers it is termed 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 sta
ton, SO as to enable any farmer to
know which diseases he has to deal
with. They usually occur in the order
here given:
CD. Arsenical poisoning. Due to
excessive application of paris green.
Commonly causes brown or black
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 fungus
disease spots much like those caused
by the paris green. 1t may cause
complete destruction of the tops. 1t
never produces rot, however. Rene
dy: Spray with bordeaux mixture.
60. Late blight and rot. Every
Vermont farmer knows and breads
this old enemy. 1t requires warm,
rainy or "muggy" weather for it's de-
velopment, but under favorable con-
ditions will sweep over a field and
destroy every plant in few days. 1t
is fungus. The same fungus causes
both the late blight and the rot.
Remedy: Bordeaux mixture properly
applied 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 experiment station.
(4. Tip-burn. 1t is very common,
especially in dry seasons or when hot,
dry weather follows wet period, for
the leaves to s'burn," especially at
the tips aud margins. This trouble
is worse when the leaves are badly
eaten by insects. Remedy: Attention
to proper cultivation, and spraying
bordeaux paris green mixture.
(5). The brown rot is a bacterial
disease, causing the willing and death
of the stems, followed by wet rot of
the tubers. This is very Obstructive
in the south and occurs in the Hudson
Valley of New York state. The ex-
pertinent station experts have not yet
seen it in Vermont, however.

New York, July 3.-While today's cot

market opened steady with prices four
to nine points higher. Subsequent trans
actions raised the level OF prices SUN
further. At the strongest interval the
net gain on yesterdays figures was a
matter of eleven to eighteen po'Ets. Inc
demand came chiefly from local sources,
with buying to cover short contracts the

a number of railroads, which have been
pursuing a downward course for some
time on account of the general SUPPOSE
ton that surplus railroad earnings would
be conserved for future needs, rather
than distributed as increased dividends.
Prominent in this class were Baltimore
and Ohio and Missouri Pacific was adj
vanced over a point by an ag'tfve bidding
up process during the morning. There
was continuance of the recent unex-
planned demand for the Reading and Jer-
sey Central stocks, the latter rising at
one time two points. Sugar rose with
an appearance of strength but relapsed
On the announcement of a further rise in
the price of product. Brooklyn Rapid
Transit developed some benefit from yes
terdays verdict in the trial for conspiracy
to dscredit the securities of the COM
pany.
The early depression from London,
where the growing seriousness of the
problem in China had its effect, seemed
to be totally ignored in this market and
had no influence in checking the opening
advance. Not so with the influence Of
the wheat market which again demon
strated it's dominating power in stocks.
When prices of wheat were seen to adj
vance railroad stock turned downward
and found no effective support for the
rest of the day. The general level of
prices fell below last night in the late
dealings, but there were some stocks
which retained small net gains, though
much diminished from those at the high
level of prices. Although the advance
was checked the gains which were Sc
cured in yesterdays movement were not
very largely encroached upon. The mar
ket during the latter part of the day
was dull and almost at stagnation and
there was no disposition to put out fresh
contracts on the eve of the holiday Rock
Island was added to the list of railroads
whose operating expenses for May have
more than wiped out the increase in their
gross earnings.
The money market was very dull and
not quotably changed, but the diffusion
of interest and dividend payments had
evidently commenced. The Sub-Treasury
had a debit balance at the clearing house
today of nearly $2,000,000 and the days
excess of expenditures over receipts of
the public revenues at Washington
amounted to $2,372, 1S9. These figures re-
fleet the payment of interest on Govern
ment bonds.
On the other hand New York exchange
at Chicago fell from zoe premium to par
and there was deposited at the Sub Treas
ury here 100000 for payment at other
points. The demand for currency is thus
seen to be growing.
The bond market moved in sympathy
with stocks, advancing in the early deal
ings but yielding somewhat with the re-
action in stocks. Total sales (par value)
$94O, 900.
