How Boston Got It's Name.
In the seventh century a Roman
Catholic monk Of the name Of Botolph
or Bot-holph (boat help) founded a
church in what is now called Lincoln
shire, England. Gradually town
grew up around the church and was
called Hotolphstown, which was after
ward contracted to Botholphston and
then shortened to Botoston and finally
to Boston. From that town of Boston
in Lincolnshire came to America the
Rev. John Cotton, who gave the name
to the New England capital.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When the tube is infamed you have a
rumblins sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness il the result, and unless the in
hammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever ;
nine cases out of 10 are caused by
Catarrh. which is nothing but an in

POTATOES DISEASED
ALL OVER THE WORLD
This Bla ckrot Has Appeared In
Rogue River Valley-Sanple
Submitted to Prof. Cordley.

Complaint comes from all sections
of potatoes being afflicted with a
disease that produces black spots
10 the body of the potato. This di
sease on potatoes was unknown in
pioneer days and has only appeared in
Rogue River Valley in recent years,
evident y being Imported, or caused
by changed soil conditions. This di-
sease has become worldwide and
it is a serious problem to farmers in
both America and Europe.
When a. the recent farmers institute
at Wilderville DIR. Withycombe was
given sample of these diseased
potatoes by David Schultz, pro-
gressiye farmer of that section. On
his return to the Agricultural Col
lege DIR. Withcyombe gave the pota-
toes to Prof. A. B. Cordley, eto-
mologist of the Experiment Station,
and who is one Of the leading author
tiles in the United States on diseases
OF plant life, for his diagnosis Of the
trouble. For the information Of other
farmers, whose potatoes have this
same disease, Prof Cordley sent a
copy of his letter to Nj. Schultz to
the Courier for publication and 1t ID
herewith given:
Corvallis. Ore, February 26, 1906.
Mr.. David Schultz,
Wilderville, Oregon.
Dear Sir: DR.. Withycombe has re-
ferred to me the specimens Of diseased
potatoes which you sent.
can only say that the disease IL
known AS the internal browning OF
potato, that it is very common aud
very widespread trouble, occurring
not only practically all over the
United States but also in Europe, and
that the cause is not known. Care
full microscopical examinations have
shown that the disease is not caused
by insects. fungi or bacteria, and ex
periments have indicated that it il
not transmit by the seed, that is,
diseased seed does not have tendency
to produce diseased potatoes, althoug 81
it does have tendency to decrease
the yield. The only logical explana
tion that can be given is that the
disease is physiological trouble
probably due to the condition of tn,
soil, either moisture content or foot
content. There is some evidence t.
show that il is caused by too rapiC
growth OF the potatoes, but the ques
ton is still open
Very truly yours,

A Correspondents View of the
Hobo Question.

Editor Courier In last week 8 issue
of your paper l noticed an article in
regard to the hobo evil of our beauti-
full country. Why not invite the pub
lie TO devise means Of stopping this
nuisance by making suggestions
through the columns of your paper ?
Being OF rather rowing nature but At
the same time having deep love of
home. | spent good many days and
weeks wandering about and i learned
many things in regard to the genius
hobo. In the first place, there is a
class distinction among the Weary
Willies and they are divided into two
classes those who will work and
those who will not; those who are no.
bos from choice and those who are
hobos from force of circumstances.
But to make a long story short l
have this to suggest in regard to the
abatement Of this plague; to force
everyone of them TO work at least for
what they eat. The plan IN dse NJ
Belvue, Iowa, is to have the city
supply each home in it with tickets,
good for one meal at restaurant
with which arrangements have been
previously made, good only when
countersigned by the city marshal.
When application is made for food by
one Of the fraternity he is presented
with card which he must have
counterslgued. and this signature Is
gained only by his working for ah
hours on the street. Belvue is q
clean. tidy looking town and is free
from the tramp evil foe; the average
hobo would rather walk out Of town,
in case he is forced to get off there
than to ask for meal.
