the best they can to gather the crop

eases and insects can be controlled by
the various poisons, sprays, and cul-
turai methods already discovered, but
for some-as, for example, the rust Of

Unsatisfactory remedies have not

Some instances may be cited to show
Just what is meant by resistant or i'm
mune varieties and their value. Grapes
furnish a striking example. Euro
pean grapes planted in this country
fail wherever the American grape-root
louse is present, because the louse Is
able to attack and destroy the roots
of these varieties. The roots or ma.
tive American grapes are also attacked
bv the same louise, but are so hard and
wiry that the louise can not destroy
them, In other words they are re,
sistant
The unusual resistance of the keIf-
fer near to blight has made it pos
sible ie grow this pear in the South
ern States, where most other Varle-
ties fail because of blight. The va
riety of eowpea known as Little Iron
has proved so resistant to wilt disease
that In some fields it has survived
when all ether varieties have been
killed. American gooseberries are but
little subject to the mildew which Sc
riougiy affects the larger English va
rieties when grown here. With nearly
every crop grown, some of its Vari'
cites are more resistant or immune 10

others.
Some varieties of the same plant

while others are badly injured. va.

POTATOES.
During recent years the disease re-
sistance Of potatoes especially has re-
ceiVed attention by several of the
agricultural experiment stations in the
United States, notably those of Maine,
Minnesota, and Vermont. A recent
bulletin of the Bureau of Plant In,
dustry of the Department of Agricul
ture, prepared by l.. r. Jones, of the
Vermont Station, summarizes and dis
cusses this work, and that along sim
liar lines abroad, as we'll as the ex-
perience of practical growers. Sum,
marizing the results, Professor Jones
draws the following tentative con
clusions:
Disease resistance in potatoes is
relative, not absolute, no variety
known being wholly proof against late
blight and rot. 1t seems related to
general yegetative vigor, and is, there
fore, in measure dependent upon
cultural and developmenta1 conditions
and tends to decrease with the age of
the variety. It can be restored by
originating new varieties from seed
especially of hybrid origin. Not all
seedlings show superior disease re
Early varieties may escape the dis
ease by maturing before it becomes
epidemic, but when similarly exposed
they are, as a class, less resistant than
late varieties.
The source of seed tubers is a mat
ter of Importance, northern-grown
seed giving plants the superior disease
resistance in Europe. Seed from a
crop that was not too highly fertilized
is probably preferable. Possibly tub
ers are better for seed purposes if dug
before they reach full maturity. High
fertilization, especially with nitro
genous manures, lowers the power OF
the plant to resist both blight and
rot.
So far as skin characteristics are an
index, the red varieties with thick
and rough skin seem more resistant
as a class than the thin-skinned white
varieties. So far as stem and foliage
characters are concerned, the evi
dence favors the stem that IS hard
rough, and rather woody at the base
and the leaf that is small, somewhat
rough, and dark colored.
In America trials as to disease re
sistance have been conducted at some
of the experiment stations, notably II

pink chiffon ribbon. Small capes are
again looked upon with favor, espe
cially the little mantles which go with
three-piece suits or those of lace OF
lingerie fabric which grace thin sum
mer frocks. The return of these is
probably due to the return Of the small
bolero which has appeared in all man
ner of shapes and styles, the sleeves
of which often resemble cape-like af
fairs.
The long gloves which are worn with
short sleeves are held up in a move
way by wristlets of elastic covered
with shirred ribbon and finished at the
top with a buckle or tiny rosette OF
ribbon. These are worn just below
the elbow or above wherever the glove
is supposed to end. They hold the
glove in place admirably and are a
pretty addition to the toilette. The IA
vorite color for these bracelets is black
but any color of glove is matched in
these tiny accessories.

grown from the seed of one scotsman.
Many of the hills from this strain of
Rockyford seed remained green
a good crop Of melons. Further obser-
vations in the muskmelon fields of
that neighborhood also showed that
wherever this strain of ROCKFORD seed
had been used many hills were unaf-
fected with rust, while with other
strains of seed of the same variety
the vines were all dead.
The Investigator selected a quantity
Of seed from the rust-resistant hills
and planted them in comparison with
ordinary seed "On the rust-resisting
hills the melons were hidden under a
healthy growth of vines, and were
large, solidly netted, with thick, firm
flesh, small seed cavity completely
filled with seed. On the rusted hills
the plants were almost devoid of leaves
and the small melons were premature
ly ripe, with thin, watery flesh, open,
large seed cavity, and practically of
no market value"
In tracing back the history of this
strain of seed it was found that some
years before a scotsman had saved the
first lot from a single healthy melon
taken from a field Of rusted vines. 1t
had therefore been developed by the
simple process Of saving seed from
the best melons produced by plants
which withstood attacks Of rust when
surrounding plants were destroyed by
this disease. What was thus accom-
plished by one farmer with one crop
can probably be accomplished by other
farmers with the same or with other
crops, If they will be alert, while the
crops are growing, to select and mark
individual plants which show excep-
tional merit along the lines of pro-
life yield, early maturity, resistance to
disease, or other desirable quality, and
save seed separately from the plant
showing such qualities. Marked va
riations which may be profitably utll-
lied in this way are constantly occur
ring and are plainly evident on all
farms.
The point to be emphasized is that
Improvements in farm crop varieties
nearly always trace back to individual
plants, No one is in better position
to notice these exceptional plants than
the farmer. He is In his fields, gar
den, or orchard, every day, where these
exceptional plants are produced. If
one plant in a rust-infected wheat
field stands up green and free from
the disease, that is a plant to save
seed from as the basis of a rust-re-
sistant strain. If one hill of pota-
toes in a blighted field remains unaf-
fected by disease, seed from that hill
may produce blight-resistant variety
If a squash pant is found that is dis
tasteful to the squash bug, seed from
that hill may produce squash vines
which the bugs will not modest.
The important fact is that some
plants are much more resistant to dis
ease aid insect attacks than others.
It is a question Of seeing the resistant
The sea coast echo., 1906-07-14

The farmers too greatest foes are
insects and plant diseases. He can,
by e proper rotation Of crops and
fertilization, convert a poor into rich
soil, and he can stimulate plant growth
by plenty of fertilization. By the
same process he can keep down the
weeds which rob his crops OF nourlsh.
ment and moisture. He can, to great
extent. overconC, with but little
trouble, all the various smaller him
ORANGES to crop growing-all but the
bugs and the blight. These twain are
hard to handle. None is so arrogant
as to profess Indifferent to their at
tacks. Not many years ago they were
expected, not the less dreaded, eSpe-
cialIy the blights and the rots and the
miIdews: they were the natural vista
tions of providence. There was no
use trying to combat them. If they
came they came. The farmer prayed
that they might not come that year.
Now. science has shown US that they
can, in most cases, be overcome. II
not overcome, they can be prevented.
Yet the process is often fraught with
great trouble and expense to the
farmer.
Now suppose a man could develop
a strain of plants SO hardy that
blights and rust would pass them by
in disgust and so bitter and unsayory
for a bug that the hymenOpterd, the
coIe0pterG and the other "toughs' Of
the insect trust would pass by and
prefer to eat oak and hickory leaves?
Io 6;n
would it not? He could sit in the
shade and hire myrmidons to do his
work, directing those close at hand
in person and those at distance by
telephone. Such a condition may be
possible. The man who gets in first
would be the one to sit in the shade
and reap the advantage. Eventually
we would all get on to the scheme,
and. unless the population of the world
increased with accelerated rapidity,
there would be an over-productlon or
food products and prices would eventu-
ally get back to their present level,
so that we would all have to work
again.
The Department of Agriculture and
some of the experiment stations have
been working along this line of Sc
Iccting resistant plants with the idea
of at least giving the enterprising
American farmer a good big start.
In the aggregate enormous crop
losses-millions and millions-are
caused by the attacks Of insects and
plant diseases. In dry weather in

It may be a surprise to many to learn that a severe cold can be completely broken up iu one or two days time. To do this however, prompt action is necessary. The first symptoms of a cold are a dry, loud cough, profuse watery discharge from the nose, and a thin, white coating on the tongue. When Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken every hour on the first appear of these symptoms, it cOluteracts the effect of the cold and restores the syS- tenn to healthy condition within 8 day or two.
