A New Potato Disease.

The wart disease is a new enemy of
the potato crop which is attracting
great attention in Europe, and which is
liable to be introduced into the United
States at any time. 1t affects the
tubers, forming large, rough, unsightly
warts, and, in severe attacks, COM
pletely destroys the crop. Once the
fungus gets into the soil it is impossible
to grow a crop of potatoes on the land
for several years, 1t has been intro
duced into Nova Scotia and Canada by
seed potatoes sent from Europe.

The denominations will be s5 and

PECOS VALLEY OIL is
SHOWN TO BE THE BEST

A test of crude oils for ssnudging
purposes was conducted by Capt. NJ.
). Murray, secretary, and other mem
Ders of the Fruit Growers Associa-
ton in the court house yard today to
show the relative merit of the ship
ped in product from the Kansas and
Oklahoma fields and the product of
the newly discovered wells near Day
on. The test showed that the Dayton
iii burns with more vigor and much
greater heat and at the same time
burns as long as the Kansas oil when
tried in the Troutman, the most pop
llar pot Dayton oil has to be shipped
)nly sixty miles and the other oils
probably six hundred miles, or more
The Dayton oil can be bought at the
we'll for one-third the cost of the
shipped in product.
VIII C. Lawrence and Edgar Calfee
TWO of the owners of the Dayton well
state that the well is now flowing a
boIt twelve barrels of oil per day.
but that water shows up with it and
that for best results a pump Will be
installed at once. They can supply
the entire valley, they state, with
smudging oil and will be in good shape
% do so by the time the smudging e
season arrives.
A half gallon each of DAYTON and
Kansas oil was placed in Troutman
pots and both burned three hours and
thirty minutes. In the National Orch
ard Heater the Kansas Oil burned
| four hours and the Dayton oil three
hours and ten minutes. This difference
| IS due, ii is thought, to tae fact that
the Dayton oil has more volatile mat
ter in IL and the National feeds il
| faster than does the Kansas oil.
The Colorado heater was tested
with Kansas oil, also. IT was hard tc
light and smothered out several times
| proving unsatisfactory.
TIE Gill Experiment Heater. a home
| invention, burned a half gallon oi
| Kansas oil in two hours and twenty
/ minutes.
| The principal good of the test IL
that the Pecos Valley oil burns al
long and with greater heat than the
foreign oil and burns readily and
leaves little residue in the pot. The
test was highly satisfactory to homt
industry.

down the moutainside at the rate of
nearly seventy miles an hour a freight
train on the Moffit road jumped the
track between Jenny Lake and Ante

another fatally injured. The dead nen
are Engineer Gray, Fireman Hoosick
and Brakeman G. Fertig, all of
Denver. Conductor T. D. Chapcott was
fatally hart, and Brake man Berrying-
er injured
The train was drawn by a big COM
pound engine. On the grade not far
from Tollaad it got beyond control
and was soon plunging down the
mountain at terrific speed. Finally
the train jumped the rails and like a
hurled itself far down the
hill, the engine landing three hundred
feet from tie track.
Brakeman Berringer was thrown far
from the train into deep snow and
his body has not been recovered.

Los Angeles. Calf, Jan. 2O.-With
the end of the aviation meeting at

today that ne has no intention of
making a flight to San Diego for the
i've thousand dollar prize offered by
the business men of that city.
Curtiss will leave tonight for Ham
nondsport, New York.
BY many this declaration is taken
to mean that Curtiss has doubts of
the ability of the biplanes he has
here to make a flight over the mount
aims, across the bays and inlets of
the sea that lie on tAe route to san
Diego.
As soon as Curtiss is clear of the
court proceedings in connection with
the infringement suits started by the

tion of an immense flying machine of
the hiplane type that will definitely
force into second place the Farnum
machine, which, during the last ten
days, under the hands of Pauihan,
