POTATO SHOOT ATTACKED BIZ DRY ROT.
vest to Colorado. Messrs. Smith and
Swingle Of the bureau of plant indus
try at Washington have lately report
ed the following conclusions in regard
TO it after investigation of the disease
AS 1t occurs in different parts of the
country:
The bundle blackening and dry end
rot Of the tuber are two stages Of the
same disease. This begins In the field
| in the underground stems and roots.
A fungus is always present In the
darkened vascular bundles Of the tu-
bers in sparing amount and cultures
therefrom have shown this to be a
fusarium."
The above ground SYMPTOMS are slow
change of color, dwarfing, more or less
rolling or curling Of the leaves and
finally wilt Of the foliage and the
falling down Of the stems.
The first symptoms in the tuber are
nearly always at the stem end in the
form Of Drowned or blackened vascular
bundles. During this stage of the dis
ease the tubers are sound externally.
The dark stain In the vessels may final
y extend to the eye end Of the tuber.
The fungus attacks the plant from
the soil and winters over In the earth.
In land frequently planted to potatoes
It can probably maintain itself indefi-
nitely.
A copious use Of fertilizers, such as
lime, phosphates, nitrates and potash
salts, did not enable the plants to over
come the disease.
The disease continues In stored pota-
toes, and IL they are kept In warm
rooms the loss during the winter Is
likely to be large.
Diseased tubers should be stored In
cool dry rooms and used early in the
season. They should not be fed raw to
stock.
Infected land should be planted to
pther crops for series Of years. Ten
atlvely at least 1t would be best to ex-
GUIDE also tomatoes, eggplants and pep
pers from such land.
Inc greatest care should be taken to
void the infection of healthy land by
he planting Of diseased tubers. All
ubers designed for seed should be cut
+ the stem end and carefully inspected
before planting.
Diseased tubers should not be thrown
p the manure pile.

becoming familiar through the reports of the De-
partment, with the manufacturers of good and
poor feeds. Within reasonably short time in
this State, it will be the fault of the feeder if he
allows poor grade articles to be imposed upon
him for feeding to his domestic animals.
For quite number of years commercial fer
tilizers have been inspected and analyzed, and is
now regarded as necessity for the protection of
the farmer, as well as the honest manufacturer.
At the present time stock feeds subject to
far greater aduteration than are fertilizers They
are perhaps susceptible to adulteration than
fertilizers, and their feeding value can be large
ly reduced by the admixture of materials of but
little feeding value.
The results thus far obtained justify the pas
sage of the law governing the manufacture and
sale of stock feeds and there can be no doubt
but that great good will come to reliable manufac-
turers and to feeders generally from its opera

INSPECTION AND ANALYSIS OF cONcEN-
TRATED STOCK FEEDS.

TRATED STOCK FEEDS.
For three years previous to 1908 commercial
stock feeds have been inspected and analyzed by
the Department of Agriculture along with the
same work on human foods The results obtained
showed that there large amount of a1ultera-
tion of the feeds sold by grocers for domestic
animals These facts presented to the agri-
cultural committees of the last Legislature and
special law was passed governing the manufacture
and sale of concentrated stock feeds and cotton
seed meal. These laws went into effect July I of
last year, since which time the Department of
Agriculture has examined chemically and mi
croscopically nearly three hundred commercial
feeds offered for sale in the State. These samples
were collected by the Department, sent in by man.
ufacturers, retailers and users The first report,
embodying the results of the first seasons nspec-
ton, is being issued as the December Bulletin of
the Department. As heretofore, there is found
to be a comparatively large amount of adultera-
ton. The main materials sold under the name of
concentrated stock feeds wheat, bran, wheat
middlings, mixtures of these, corn chops, rice
products, ship stuff and mixed feeds. The adul-
terants found in largest quantities in these have
been rice huls and chaf, oat hulls from the manu-
facture of oat meal chaff of the other grains,
ground peanut shells and corn bran. The feeding
value OF these laSJ-nameQ materials is SInau III
comparison with the other products with which
they are mixed, because of the large amount of
wood-like fiber of which they composed. They
are usually finely ground and mixed with the
main feed as scarcely to be detected by the un-
aided eye. The microscope, however, reveals their
identity and presence. A not inconsiderable num-
Der of the feeds anayzed had these dlutents mixed
with them to such extent as to reduce their
feeding value one-third, and in few cases to
fully one-haf that of the original feed nuder the
name sold. In some cases where samples were
sent in by farmers and retail dealers, it was
reported that animals could scarcely be induced
to eat the feeds. Examinations of these products
always showed the presence of large amounts OF
the adulterants referred to above. There is
double loss to the farmer or feeder In feeding
these low-grade products imposed upon him, in
that he pays to begin with more than they are
worth and then has the concentrated animal prod
uct, milk, butter beef and work, into which he is
converting them, greatly reduced.
The law has already given substantial protec-
ton to the retail dealer and farmer, whose in
terests are and should be Identical in that they
have been reimbursed in a number of cases for
the low character of the feed sold them; and

HARRY FARMER's TALKs.-cxxxvu.
The Vegetable Garden.
Editors Progressive Farmer:

Editors Progressive Farmer
Having talked last week about the flower gar
den, we want to say few words now about the
garden that pleases the hungry farmer when he
comes in from the field.
This we regard as the most important part of
the farm. On our own farm the garden furnishes
the most of the food during eight months out of
the year. Now it does not take much land, labor
or manure, fertilizer, etc.-no more than COM
mon field crop that is well cultivated. And as
this part of the farm is looked after by the ladies
nearly all the farms in Eastern North Carolina,
the falls lightly on the average farmer. We
prepare the lands by plowing, narrowing, hauling
in manure, etc., but when it comes to naming
the vegetables and direction of the rows, Harry
quietly gets out of the way and Mary Jane takes
charge She delights in having sonae extra early
Sass" which pleases us and the boys.
When seed are ordered for the garden, buy as
few novelties as possible for nearly all of them
viii disappoint you. It is well enough to try few
short rows in new promising plants.
As to preparing hot-beds, those who have the
proper facilities may do well, but we prefer the
cold frame. 1t can be made just like tobacco
bed; in fact, we the material as the to-
bacco farms, excepting manure is used. To
take plants grown in hot-house and set them In
cold soil rarely ever gives satisfaction, while
plants taken from the cold frame need but
little hardening.
Many gardens are well cultivated in the spring
and nice crop gathered, but when warm weather
sets in "General Green" takes charge, and when
late summer comes, when we need vegetables most
he has destroyed them all, excepting few beans
other climbing plants that grow all summer
Rotation and succession should be practiced by
every gardener. A live farmer can often take
choice vegetables to town and get the girls
dress or other needed articles.
Now you want to know what to plant and SOW.
You will have to select such you like. Different
people have different tastes, it would be useless
for us to attempt to give list. Here IS our
list: Cabbage, collards, corn, beans two or three
kinds of snap and butter beans), peas, okra, to-
matoes, raddish, pepper, egg plant, lettuce
list: Cabbage collards, corn, beans (two or three

and Irish potatoes. You this gives quite
variety. Although it is not all we grow, it in
