ROTTEN POTATOES.

The infection of the potatoes with
the fungus which produces rot occurs
chiefly, If not entirely, in the field be-
fore digging; the infection is usually
the result Of diseased vines and in
most cases the disease is not trans
mftted directly from the vine. but In
directly through the soil; also, pota-
toes may be infected directly in the
field frcm;spores introduced. Into the
soil the preceding year. Experiments
with dry Bordeaux mixture and SOL
uble Bordeaux mixture show that
both these are less effective as pre-
ventives of blight and subsequent rot
than the regular Bordeaux mixture.

CABBAGE WORMS.

These pests are more numerous
than usual this season and alr sorts

fills her sprinkler with, water from the

In this country that the president
should not leave the United States

sessions. This would seem to be more
or less foolish when it Is remembered
that the president could keep in as
close touch with his Office during a
visit 10 Porto Rico as when buried
In a far western forest during a bear
hunt. The King OF England. the En-

From these view points the men
who act as Jury commissioners and
city registrars should come from the
great rank of our citizens. who are
non-partisan in the local politics OF
Brunswick and Glynn county. They
should be men who are not directly
interested and thus will be in posi-
ton to render full justice TO all
classes of men who chance to come
before them. However sincere a man
may be, If he is directly supporting
the candidacy of any party. If he is
directly interested In the outcome
Of any election; If he has kinspeople
who may be effected, If he is par
tisan in an impending contest. then
he ought not to serve, for he Is
really disqualified, and a judge could
not set UPON such a csse The News
has charged the present city council
with being partisan in the matter OF
electing officers to the various places
In the city government. We now
reiterate those charges and for proof
We point TO It's act of Wednesday
night, when it called a special SEES
sion to name a city registrar, in the
place OF Candidate w. r. Cox. who
is running for alderman on the city
administration ticket. and elected 10
.he position r. b. Burney, brother
Of the present chief of police ano
naturally and properly partisan in
his political convictions. We have
no reason to find fault with the atti-
tude of Mr. Burney in local politics. |
In fact we do not blame him at all |
for being partisan for an admlnistra-
ton In which his kinspeople are so |
prominent. but we do blame the city |
council for electing to the office Ga
city registrar a man who is 50 par
tisan and pronounced In his views on
the political situations here in {
brunswicK.
From this action OF thiia bitter par
tisan city council. We appeal to the
calm and diGpassionate aenae OF
justice Of the people of this city. Is
the action Of council giving the PEG
pie of Brunswick square deal? Is
1t fair to those OF the people of this
city who are supporting the ticket
headed by Col. Goodyear
In conclusion we would like to ask
tho people of this city If this specific
action of the city council does not
convict 1t of the charge of partisan
ship In the administration, which Is
one of the charges in the bin of in
n>tment we have drawn against It.
