j. l.. Crowder, which includes all TIE
Crowder real property adjoining the

OUR FARMERS.
SEED POTATOES.

So far as known the fungus which
causes the common 'rust" or late
blight and rot of potatoes lives over
winter only in the potato tubers. 1t
is of course possible that it may per-
sist in resting stage in the soil or the
blighted vines or decayed tubers, but
most persistent search has failed to
discover this. If this belief is correct
and the only place where the fungus
lives through the winter is in the in
fected tubers, then the development
of the disease each succeeding year
is direct result of the planting of
some such infected tubers. ALI obser-
vations are in harmony with this ex-
PLANTATION.
The unusually early and general de-
velopment of the fungus the past
summer is thus explained, for there
was enough of the rot in the autumn
of 1901 to cause the widespread infec-
ton of the tubers from which theseed
of 1902 was selected. 1t follows that
the still worse development of rot this
season is prohetic of disastrous oc-
currence of the disease in 1903 pro-
viding soil and weather conditions
next summer are at all favorable.
The practical question is what can
be done to lessen this danger? Sur
face washes are useless for the fungus
is safely housed in the depths CT the
living potato tissue-and any known
means of killing the fungus by chemi-
Gals will kill the potato also.
1t has been suggested that heating
the seed potatoes six hours or longer
at 108 degrees F., or Whereabouts, dry
heat, wonld kill the fungus without
injury to the potato. This has not
been fully demonstrated and would
not prove practical to most farmers in
case it is reliable.
The Vermont experiment station
authorities can recommend only two
things as practical. The first is that
unusual pains be taken this autumn to
secure and preserve for next years
seed purposes, early planted potatoes
grown on light, we'll drained soil,
which escaped the blight-or else
those from fields so we'll sprayed as
to be protected. The second is that
next summer every potato grower be
prepared beforehand with spraying
outfit and chemicals ready for prompt
application of the Bordeaux mixture
when needed. Even in so discourag-
ing a season as the last one this
remedy has proved perfectly effective
when used promptly and thoroughly.
In the well sprayed fields at Burling-
ton, considerable portion of the
vines were still green and growing on
October first, and preliminary dig
gings have shown practically no rot.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of TIL ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an 1nfamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tn be
gets inaamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

case of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh cure. Send

WELCOME THE NEW Conner.

There should be vigorous and uni
ted effort on the part of the people
to promote a strong rural senti-
ment and an increased rural popula-
ton. Every practical means of secur-
ing further extension of rural mail,
rural telephones and electric roads,
better roads, schools and oranges,
more wealthy owners of summer
homes and an increased number of
transient summer visitors should have
the encouragement and support of the
rural people. The old time grum bling
about long winters, severe drouths,
freshets and frosts, bad roads and
high taxes should give way to pro-
gressive policy in town, county and
state, as demonstrated in an honest
purpose to make rural New England
still more desirable than o-day. The
old neighborhood quarrels, church
factions and school fights should be
forever abandoned, remembering that
whatever aid comes to the rural towns
will come as a result of united effort
to secure it.
When man with property or with
an honest intention of becoming a
good citizen comes to the town with
the intention of locating give the
glad hand and assure him that the
particular place which he has in mind
is as desirable as any place in the
roads, good schools, good society,
good church privileges, good water
and good facilities of every nature.
Call upon him when he gets located
and ask bin 10 become interested in
the various public matters that exist
in the town. Let him know that you
are proud of your town aud of your
farm and want him to have the same
feeling toward the town and his farm.
Get away from that old spirit of petty
jealousy and backbiting that has been
matured by the loafers around many
country stores aud other village loaf
ing places. The rural places are rap
idly getting away from these practices
and will soon be practically free from
their communicating influence. We
see no reason for other than the most
hopeful and encouraging view of rural
New England life in the immediate
future if each does his duty toward
his town and locality as Loyalty and
zealously as does the resident of any
other section of the country stand by
his town and his farm.-E1change.
