far better able to throw off disease.
The chances are that if your ground
had been we'll supplied with potash
in addition to the manure, even with
out the spraying, the vines would
have kept right on growing for two
weeks longer than they did, because
they would have been better able
to resist the disease for that time
AS we all know, two weeks gain at
that time, when the tubers are form
ing, would result in large increase
of the crop. Do not, therefore expect
that by spraying the plants when they
begin to wilt you san save the potato
crop and do not get the impression
that spraying is the whole story You
must have strong vigorous plant,
not one that runs all to top and makes
few tubers, but one that develops
steadily and makes large sized tu-
bers and a we'll matured vine. You
cannot obtain such a vine and crop
unless you are sure that the potash
supply is ample.

White Fly Misinformation.
Editor Florida AgricMItUYiSt:

An unusual amount Of m1s1nforma-
ton regarding the white fly has been
published from time to time, in the
newspapers Of the state, even in the
agricultural papers, SO that the aver
age reader of the white fly literature
scarcely knows ''where he is att The
number of species of plants upon which
the white fly can breed prolihcally, is
very limited indeed One might say
that the number of species Of plants
out side of the citrus family that are
really dangerous about the premises, if
one owns grove, may be counted up
on ones fingers.
We also find that misinformatlon
is published, in regard to what species
of plants are not attacked. For in
stance, we have had people to affirm
very positively that both the china ber-
ry and umbrella trees are free from. at
tack. Five minutes observation in
infested regions would disillusion these
conceptions On the other hand, we
have people to fly to other extremes
without apparently having made any
observations for themselves. Take for
example, the inexcusable statements
that the white fly inhabits and infests
our forest trees, hammocks, bay heads,
and other similar places. These as
sertions are based either upon incor
rect observation or on imagination
There are very few trees among our
native species that are attacked by the
white fly. We have of course, native
white fly that attack our native plants,
but as these do not attack the citrus

To Prevent Potato Blight.
Editor Florida AgricMItarist:

Editor Florida AgricMlturist:
A farmer in Southern Florida had
an unhappy experience with his po-
tato crop last year and asks for in
formation, which will enable him to
prevent another disaster The last
of February heplanted an acre Of
potatoes. He used 1900 pounds of a
high grade fertilizer and also on
part Of the field he put 10 good wagon
loads of manure from a livery stable
That manure was hauled out and
piled in the field and forked over
three times at intervals of about 10
days. 1t was then scattered at the
bottom of the burrows. Then the
commercial fertilizer was put on top
of the manure and all covered light
ly with soil. This man got a fine
stand, as one would expect from such
manuring, and also during the ear
ly part of the growth very fine
showing of tops There was every
appearance of good yield, but just
about the time that the potatoes were
from one-half to two thirds grown,
the tops begin to wilt and soon COM
mence to G,e Of course, the tubers
stopped growing and he got less than
one-half crop as a result. Now, he
wants to know if the Bordeau Mix
ture applied when the plants began
to wilt, would have stopped this
blight If so, he could have we'll af-
forded to spend $50 in doing it, as
he got $I.oo bushel for his crop
and to spend $50 in doing it, as he got
$1.00 a bushel for his vrop and
full crop would have added at
least 100 bushels to his yield. This
is only fair sample of many ques-
tlons sent by potato growers. In
order to answer such questions
properly we must understand what
potato blight is, and how it
operates, if we ever hope to conquer
it. This blight is disease, which
starts from a tiny germ, much like
some of the disease germs which at
tack animals In general way it can
be stated that these tiny germs float
through the air and in this way light
upon the growing potato vine If
the conditions are favorable and these
germs are not destroyed when they
light, they grow or develop and final
ly work all through the stalk or vine.
and destroy it. Having entered one
vine, of course, they can easily pass
all along a row or all over a field
What we mean by favorable condi-
tions, are, moist weather and a very
tender and not we'll developed vine
We know that some persons are more
likely to be taken with malaria, small
pox or consumption than others and
that is because they are more suscep-
