Under The SNOW.
GhaSt|y Truths Revealed on the DiSap-
DearanCe Of Winters White Mantle.

Deadly dangers Turk in the ground left
bare by the departing snow. All Winter
long there have been accommodating deadly
disease germs.
These have been protected and kept alive
by the covering of snow and now, with the
first warm days, these death-bringing mi
crobes are awakened by the rays OF The sun,
and as the ground dries they are carried 70
all corners of the community III the dust that
is blown everywhere by the Spring winds.
The human body at this time IS particu-
iarly susceptible 70 these germs, especially
the germs Of fevers. The system has been
depleted by the foregoing Winter The blood
is sluggish and filled with impurities. The
nerves have not recovered from the tension
they have been under for the past months.
The stomach, the bowels. the kidneys, the
liver are all at their worst.
Its therefore, not strange that these germs
of disease find fertile ground in which 70
thrive. flourish and develop into deadly ills.
Spring is the time of year when one should
fear an attack of fever, especially when the
system is depleted, one should dread any
severe illness. The vitality IS at low ebb.
There is less power of resistance to throw of
disease, and it is on this account that fatal
tiles are so much greater during the Spring
months than at any other time of the year.
There is but one way to ward of such
DANGERS. and that is to fortily the human

II IS always interesting to know what
colors are used or selected by royal
families as being their very own. To
England, the only royal family of mod
ern times which has selected 1t, belongs
scarlet, and il must be confessed that 1t
is a most effective color. The royal
households of Portugal, Prussia, Swe-
den and most Of the German princes
wear blue. Russia chooses dark green,
and Austria delights in black and yell
low. According 10 the usual belief
scarlet. as the royal household color OF
England, was chosen because Of the
red rose of the Plantagenets, but this
is not true 1t was taken from the
field gules of the royal standard and
from Henry's adoption of the scarlet
dress Of the yeomen Of the guard.
IN days gone by 1t was the privilege
of the aldermen's wives to wear scar
let gowns. but Englishmen having an

color about her.

This was cheaper, but yet too heavy
an expense TO incur for such a wretch.
1t would still be necessary to tax the
citizens. Again the council met. At
great length they debated as to how
the matter might be more economically
settled. Why could not they employ a
native soldier and behead the rascal
at home?
The general was consulted. He quite
properly might order one Of his war
riors to cut of the head, since that Is
their trade. and, after all. what else is
war? The general spoke TO lis men,
but one and all refused to perform the
task. NO. sir" said they. we have

Potatoes That Resist soah.

On careful investigation 1t has been
found that some varieties are more re-
sistant to potato scab than are others
A report from the Vermont station
says:
Students of plant diseases are agreed
that during recent years there has been
tendency to place too little emphasis
upon the Importance of the selection
and use Of the more hardy or disease
resistant varieties of plants. Potato
growers generally recognize that there
Is wide difference in the relative IL
ability Of the sundry varieties to the
scab, as well as to blights and other
diseases. But we have had few sys-
tematic tests from which to learn the
facts more exactly. Halsted has re-
Gently tested seven varieties in respect
to liability to scab and ranks them in
the following order, beginning with the
most susceptible: Q) Early Rose, (2)
Delaware, (3l June Eating, (4) Queen,
(5) American Giant, (6) Rural Blush,
CD Rural New Yorker. No. g. Our
own experience at the Vermont sta
ton with some of these varieties is in
harmony with Halsted's; thus in our
experiments in 1900 with Delaware and
Rural New Yorker the former scabbed
much worse than the latter when
grown under similar conditions.
Mr.. A. e. Nahum of Bristol, a DO
tato breeder of long experience, writes
as follows in reply to an inquiry as to
his opinion upon this subject:
II have observed that some varieties
are more susceptible than others. Such
smooth, white, thin skinned potatoes
as the Sir Walter, Uncle Sam and the
Enormous are less affected than such
varieties as State of Maine, Bristol
Beauty, Burbank, Bovee's Early, Pol
arts and Pride of the South. have OBJ
served, also, that potatoes with rough
skin are much more exempt than the
smooth skinned varieties. Last season
| planted about 400 seedlings which
were from one year to five years from
the seed bulb. | dug these potatoes
myself and found that some were more
scabby than others, the rough skinned
varieties being nearly all exempt. Some
of the smooth skin varieties in the
same row and next to the rough ones
were very scabby. In one row that
was made up of several varieties, nine
hills of each, one variety was free
from scab while the nine hills on
either side were quite scabby. While
digging the piece l found other in
stances nearly as marked as this one"

Whipped for Nnt smnhia<

In England at the time of the great
plague 1t was reported that no one liv-
ing in tobacconist's house fell sick of
the disease. This caused a great de-
mand for tobacco. Hearne says In his
diary: Il remember that l heard for
merly Tom Rogers, who was yeoman
beadle, say that when he was a school,
boy at Elton that year when the plague
ragged all the boys of that school were
Obliged to smoke every morning. and
that he was never whipped so much in
his life as he was one morning for not
smoking
