Senator F. B. Daughtery of Duluth re.
ceived the petition addressed to him by
business men Of Duluth and largely
signed, setting forth the qualifications
and pointing out the eminent degree in
which James J, Hill possessed these quail
fications. Hill has not announced himAeli

the administration's policy. Through his
paper, the Globe, he repudiated Bryan's
nomination, and he has hundreds Of re.
publican friends who claim he is IS good

Now Is the Time to Prevent Potato Scab.
Scabby potatoes won't pass in crti-
cal market. In fact the hired man
hardly wants to eat'them at home. and
the hired girl objects to peeling them.
1t is good thing not to have scabby DO
tatoes. Potato scab may be prevented
by very simple means, according to Bull
letin So of the Vermont experiment sta
ton, Just now being distributed. Pro-
fessor Jones says that potatoes should
not be planted in soils where scab has
been prevalent in previous years.
Changing the potato patch to another
field is q good preventive measure in
such cases. Scab is often brought in on
the seed potatoes, however, and one of
the most important means of prevention
lies in the disinfection of the seed This
Is accomplished by soaking In corrosive
sublmate or formalin. To treat potatoes
with corrosive subllmate make up |
ounce of the chemical in gallonsEof
water, and soak the seed potatoes u
hours in this. This solution is poison
Gus and must be handled with care. 1t
is best to put the potatoes in a loose
gunny sack and let them down into the
solution by this means. To treat pOta-
toes with formalin Cor formaldehyde, as
it Is sometimes called), put half pint
of the chemical (Which is liquid into
10 gallons of water. Soak the potato
seed two hours in this. Take the pota.
toes out of either of these solutions, dry
them. and plant as usual. The solutions

practically prevent its occurrence unless
fresh germs happen TO be present in the
soil from scabby potatoes formerly
grown on the same ground.
