POTATO scAR.
Some Suggestions for the Treatment
of the Disease.

The true potato scab is a skin dis,
ease, and develops from a germ. A
picture of scabby seed is shown. There
will be no scab on the crop unless
these germs are either in the soil
when the crop is planted or on the
seed. Prevention therefore depends
upon two things. We should avoid
planting in soil where the germs are
found. If this is impossible we should
handle the soil so that the germs
Will not be active. 1t seems to be
settled that sulphur acts to destroy
the germs. Some potato growers in
places where scab is bad put sulphur
in the hill or drill. When potato
planters are used the sulphur is mixed
IN the hopper and dropped with the
seed into the furrow. 1t helps destroy
the scab and prevents the seed pieces
from rotting, especially in a damp
season. The scab germs develop best
In an alkaline soil. Lime, wood ashes
and anu are all alkaline, and will
usually cause trouble when the soil
is known to be well supplied with the
germs. When a green crop is plowed
nnder the soil is soured more or less,
and this condition is best for scabby
ground or seed. We have known farms

HOW TO DO THINGS.

One spraying with Bordeaux mix
ture before the grapes bloom is of more
value than three or four after that.
Let the first strawberry runners set
and you will get big, strong plants
that will set many fruit buds before
frost.
Watch for the leaf slug on the pear
and cherry leaves. Air-slaked lime or
dry road dust will quickly rid the
leaves of them.
In many of the older fruit sections
the most serious enemy of the or
chard is the tree itself. There are far
too many of them, so many, in fact,
that they are crowding and starving
each other. Some must be sacrificed
for the good of the others.
An easy way to thin fruit is to go
over the trees before blooming tine
and cut out about %two-thirds of the
small branches. This serves two par-
poses--one to reduce numbers, the
other to give greater strength to tina
remaining wood.

brothers to play with him, so when
he was told that a baby sister had
come, he was very happy. But he soon

pay so much attention to him as they
formerly had, and that baby seemed
to be considered Of more account
than he. This worried Freddy; but he
suddenly thought of something which
would help him out Of his trouble,

Over mountains and through snow,
through wet, slush and mud, freezing
at times, and oppressed by heat at
others, William Jackson and r. T. Hay,
two sturdy Scotchmen, walked every
mile of the way from Seattle to Chi
cago, Just arriving within a few hours
of the time limit, thereby winning a
purse of Fifteen Hundred Dollars given
by the Seattle Athletic Club. for ac.
complishing this feat within the pre-
scribed time.
Jackson and Hay left Seattle with
but Five Dollars in money, were
obliged to earn their way as they
went and leave no unpaid bills, and
complete the journey in ninety days.
An interesting incident In connec-
ton with the walk, was that each OF
the contestants wore a pair of the
well-known Mayer shoes, that neither
ripped nor lost a stitch during the en-
tire trip Of 2450 miles-the hardest test
