There were no arrests made, and
when the ousted three were clear OF

an anxious question.
"How near can they come to smash

"That depends on Galatians nerve.
The night operators at Donerail, Scho-

explains the situation to them, they'll
do what they are told to do. But I'm

''Well, they might throw a switch on

The train-master shook his head.

Q) The spore. (2) Protuberance which
is sent out by terminating spore.
a compound microscope we should ind
It to be made up of a large number or
minute, branching, tree-lile forms (see
diagran). These are the spore bear
ing organs or branches of the fungus,
which bear upon them minute seed
like bodies called spores.
These spores, or conidia, as they are
termed, when ripe fall off; many fall
upon the ground, a few perhaps fall
uron the surface of other leaves. Now
when one Of these spores falls upon
leaf if conditions of heat and moisture
are right it will terminate and, like a
seed, send out root-like protuberance
known as the mycelium.
After termination the mycelium
grows and enters the interior of the
potato leaf through one Of the minute
breathing pores (stoma); once inside
the leaf it makes an extended growth
which kills the tender leaf tissue.
After time this mycelium sends up
branches again which bear spores.
Thus the life cycle is completed.
Oftentimes we notice that when this
blight attacks a patch Of potatoes tho
tubers will rot. The question at cnce
arises whence the cause Of this rot
ting? You will remember that when
the spores became mature they fell
off; some few fell on other leaves,
while many fell to the ground.
When one of these spores falls to
the ground near the base of the plant
If it happens to fall upon tuber which
is exposed, it will terminate, and send
its mycelium into the tuber, where it
continues to grow, causing tho tuber
to rot. According to Massee the tuber
may become infected by the mycelium
of the spore growing down diseased
stems of the plant. In either case the
mycelium may live over winter within
the potato, and, if this potato be plant
ed the next year, the disease will be
present; or if affected potatoes are
placed in cellar and sweating takes
place the mycelium will grow and re-
infect other tubers.
There is no direct means of killing
this fungus since the root, or my
celium, remains within the leaf out of
reach of all poisons. Even if we could
apply the poison to the mycelium any
thing which would kill it would also
kill the tender leaf tissue. We can
only apply preventive means.
Spraying with Bordeaux mixture has
been found effective in that it kills the
spores Of the fungus which fall upon
it. In applying the mixture the first
application should be made on the first
appearance of the disease, after which
it should be applied at intervals vary
ing from ten days to two weeks. Bor-
deaux also has beneficial effects on
plants other than those arising from
the mere protection against fungus.
The copper it contains has stimulat-
ing effect on the growth of the plant.
All affected tubers, vines, leaves, etc..
should be burned If rotting takes
place in potatoes which are stored in
cellars the best plan is to dust them
with dry, air-slacked lime. This pre-
vents further infection and rotting.
To prevent spores from being washed
into the hills and thus injecting the
tubers, "hilling up" is advised IN that
It allows, first, water to drain awav
from hill; second, potatoes are covered
more deeply.
