POTATO

A number of diseases affect the
Irish potato in this country, and the
losses they occasion are often a Sc
rious drain on the farmer income.
The object of this bulletin is to brief.
ly describe the most important dis.
eases and to outline methods of treat.
ment which experience has showh to
be successful in holding them in
check.
Potato Leaf, or Early, Blight.
This disease is widespread and de.
structive It is confined to the leaves
and green stems, and appears about
! the time the tubers begin to form, but
may be noticed earlier ii the growth
of the plants has been checked in any
way. The first indication OF its pres
ence is the appearance on the leaves
OF grayish brown spots, which soon
become hard and brittle. The disease
progresses rather slowly, the spots
gradually becoming larger, especially
along the edges of the leaflets. AT the
end of ten days to two weeks half of
the leaf surface may be brown, with.
cred and brittle, while the rest is of
yellowish green color. Three weeks
or a month may elapse before all the
leaves succumb. The stems in the
mi M Mt limo In httt thou
finally perish through lack of nourish.
ment. The tubers stop growing almost
as soon as the leaves are attacked
and as a result the crop is practically
worthless.
Treatment.
Early blight may be held in check
by the application of the fungicide
Bordeaux mixture. This is prepared
and applied as follows: Pour into a
5O.gallon barrel twenty-five gallons of
clean water; then weigh out six
pounds of crushed bluestone. or copper
sulphate, and after tying II in a piece
of coarse sacking suspend the package
just beneath the surface of the water
by means of string tied to a stick
laid across the top of the barrel. In
another suitable vessel, such as a tub
or half barrel. slack four pounds OF
fresh lime. Slack the lime careruiiy
by pouring on small quantities of wa
ter at time, the object being to OBJ.
tain a smooth, creamy liquid, free
from grit. When the lime is Stacked
add sufficient water to make twenty.
five gallons. AS soon as the bluestone
Is dissolved, which will require an
hour or more, pour the lime milk and
bluestone solutions together, using a
separate barrel for the purpose and
| stirring constantly to effect a thor.
ough mixing. 1t sometimes happens
that sufficient lime is not added. and
as result the foliage may be injured.
| To be certain that the mixture is
safe. hold a steel knife blade in it for
two or three minutes, and If the pol.
ished surface of the blade shows a cop.
per-colored tinge add more lime, but
If 1t stays bright the mixture is safe
to use. Application OF the mixture
should begin when the plants are four
to six inches high, and should be re
peated at intervals of twelve to four
teen days until five or six treatments
have been made. BY adding eight
ounces OF Paris green to each barrel
OF the Bordeaux mixture a combined
fungicide and insecticide is obtained
and this will prevent the attacks oil

Potato Blight, Late Blight, or Rot.
This disease attacks the leaves.
stems, and tubers. Generally the
first noticeable effect upon the leaves
Is the sudden appearance of brownish
or blacliish areas. which soon become
soft and foul smelling. So sudden is
the appearance OF the disease in some
cases. that fields which one day look
green and healthy may within the
next day or two become blackened as
though swept by fire. The rapid
spread Of the disease which is caused
by parasitic fungus, is dependent in
large measure upon certain conditions
OF moisture ana heat. A daily mean
or normal temperature of from ~ de.
grees to n degrees Fahrenheit for
any considerable time, accompanied
by moist weather. furnishes the best
conditions for the spread OF the para
site. On the other hand, II the daily
mean or normal temperature exceeds
n degrees for few days, the devel.
opment of the disease Is checked
This fact explains why the fungus
seldom occurs to any serious extent
in sections where the mean or normal
daily temperature exceeds Il degrees
for any length OF time. and probably
why 1t appears later than the disease
discussed under inc former heading
The tubers affected with the disease
show depressed, dark.cOlored areas
on the surface, while within are
blotches and streaks of brownish OF
blackish color. Other diseases may
produce similar effects, so that in this
case the changes are not so character
istic as those shown by the leaves

as II is far less dangerous 1t will
probably come into more general use.
In treating seed with this preparation
the whole potato should be soaked for
two hours in the solution already de.
scribed. After soaking the potatoes
may be dried. cut and planted in the
usual way, care being taken not to
allow them to become contaminated

disease usually manifests itself 10y a
sudden whiting of the foliage and soon
the whole plant may become affected,
the leaves and stems shriveling and
then turning brown or black. The
disease reaches the tubcrs through
the stems. producing brown or
black discoloration OF the tissues and
ultimately a complete breaking Gown
or rotting of all the parts. Brown rot
is caused by bacillus. minute or.
ganism, which multiplies in the tissues
and through its action produces tine
effects mentioned. Various insects.
such as Colorado beetles. flea beetles
and blister beetles, serve as carriers
of the disease. These insects may feed

the tissues through bites and possibly
in other ways.

Throughout the South namely. in
South Carolina. Mississippi, Alabama
and adjacent States where this dis.
ease Is known to occur. a thorough
system of spraying. such as recon-.

should be removed and destroyed as

With ordinary milk the yield is about
20 pounds of cured cheese for each

per cent of butter fat in different
milks very nearly determines their rel

experiments that with milk rang
ing from 81 per cent to "A per

ter fat was 2.72 pounds Of green cheese,
or 25 pounds Of cured, five weeks. 1t
was found that 5 per cent milk made

To remove rust from steel, rub with

This will also prevent irons sticking to
thin goods.
Kerosene poured on red flannel and
bound on the throat will greatly ease

cure chilblains.
All soiled spots found around door.
knobs on light-painted doors may be
removed by kerosene on flannel cloth,
with no injury to the paint.
Iron and polished steel, when not in
use, may be kept from rusting by wip-
ing with a cloth on which little kero-
sene has been poured.
When giving the final polish to stove,
before giving up fires for the summer,
mix the blacklead with little kero-

Rub lamp chimneys with newspaper
on which has been poured little kero-
eene. This will make them much clear
