others who are students of these SUBJ

without either nervous system, brain,

first?
He also says when We die we shall
find that we have not lost our dreams;
we have only lost our sleep. Let me
say that to me profound slumber is
deaths brother. Life is no more than
death on a furlough. The person who
fathoms Inconsistencies and profound
slumber will fathom the mysteries of
death, and, to my mind, death is no
more than continuity of profound
slumber throughout eternity.

English Justice May BE o. X, But
To the Editor OF the Evening Star:-
From all sides come echoes of the
Crippen-Le Neve trial in London. and
each is keyed to laudatory pitch.
English justice" seems to make of the
tight little isle" a paradise for we'll
doers and a place of torment for law
breakers. ef
One phase Of the case, however,
seems to have been overlooked. DR.. H.
H. Crippen was suspected by the Eng
lish authorities when the absence of
Belle Elmore. his wife, was first noted.
He was ponderously questioned and
allowed to go.
In substance, he said:
mo, Mr.. Policeman. I did not kill
my wife," sn
Very well, you may CO." was the
reply.
Some few weeks later Scotland Yard
aroused itself and the impression that
Dr. Crippen had hid grew to be con-
viction.
Then began an oversees chase with
melodramatic trimmings. Inspector
Dew ran his quarry to earth and the
trumpets blared.
Could a similar escape have been
made from the detective force Of the
smallest city. in the United States?
Hardly.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
A letter from Franklin Hamill Pierce,
of East Orange, was published in the
EVENING STAR Monday, October "a.
wherein he declared one of the most
gratifying features OF the present cam
paign is the absence of mud-slinging.
To prove this he said in effect that
DIR. Wilson's character was such that
nothing could be said derogatory of
him, and because of this nobleness of
character DR.. Wilson would say moth
ing derogatory of his opponent.
The inference which I Immediately
drew from the letter was that Mr..
Lewiss character was not of the best

Italy would seem TO have had more
than her share of those catastrophes
monumental enough to excite the SYM
pathy of the world. Conservative esti-
mites of the loss of life In the latest
of them indicate that the tidal wave
exacted terrible toll in each of the
villages over which it swept. The
story, when 1t has been finally ascer-
tained. will undoubtedly be replete
with scenes of horror. Such MT srial
relief as can be afforded is on it's way

A stirring appeal to the imagination
OF aviation fans was contained in the
announcement that Johnstone was
balked in his effort to make a worlds
record for height in an aeroplane by a
furious snow-storml From the region
of the unknown aloft into which he
had disappeared this hardy pioneer Of
aerial travel returned to earth to say
he had been blocked by midwinter.
Spectators on the aviation field who
had been drinking in the glories of a
perfect October day must have shiv-
cred when 1t was borne in upon them
by this remarkable obJect-lesson that
climate possessed longitude as well as

One of the interesting possibilities of

properly, that the phrases suggest an
element of chance repugnant to the
truth, But, without quibbling at the
use of the word ITSELF" he says, this
is an entirely new arrangement, an

The most striking phase of the

senator Of the Middle West, who said:
Heretofore in his desire to please
Taft has appeared to temporize. He
spoke courageously Saturday night

Considered Strong Speech.
Opinion generally is that the speech
was one of the most forceful the pres
ident ever delivered and will be Of
considerable aid to the administration
party in the coming congressional
campaign.
There is some speculation as to
whom the Democrats will select for
making reply. It. is taken for granted,
of course, that Bryan will have few
words to say through the medium of
his Commoner and that Norman
Mack, chairman Of the national COM
mittee, will attack the speech in his
new magazine. AS the Taft keynote
will be sent out in the Congressional
Record the minority leaders feel that
it should be replied to by one or more
of their number in congress. It is
likely that both minority leaders
Clark in the house and Money in the
senate-will later take occasion to
present the Democratic viewpoints on
the subjects discussed by the presi-
dent.

THE FUSARIUM Blight
OR Wilt OF POTATOES

infected leaves, viz, the lowest, die
first, dropping vertically alongside of
the stem, the joint breaking, the leaf
being held to the stem by only a
small part of the cuticle below. The
upper leaves usually do not drop, but
droop over upon whiting.
Plants, which are early and severe
ly attacked, quickly wilt during the
first few days Of hot, dry weather.
The root systems of wilted plants rot
quickly, making it possible to pull
up the affected vines easily.
The invasion of the tuber by the
fungus usually takes place by way Of
the tuber-bearing stems, after the
plant has wilted. The depth to which
the fungus penetrates the stem end
of the tuber is indicated by the brown
area, shown by cutting thin sections
across the stem end Of the tuber. At
digging time the depth of infection
seldom exceeds one-four inch. How
ever, should the potatoes be placed
in warm storage, the fungus quite
rapidly penetrates deeper
This disease has only been recog-
nized as a severe field trouble in this
state. We have obtained data from
last years field conditions and from
the potatoes carried over in storage
and those used for seed the present
season, which indicates that the Fus-
arium wilt is quite general, and that
it is playing an important part In
yield reduction throughout the state.
We wish to increase this data and in
order to do so we ask the cooperation
of all Interested in the potato crop.
The following are some Of the points
we desire answered. G) Is the dis
ease prevalent in your vicinity? (2)
What percent of the hills in your
field are affected? (3) Did the pota-
toes show the dry rot in your stor-
age? az At end of season we would
like reports of yields.
II you are in doubt as to whether
the symptoms showing in your pota-
toes are those of the Fusarium blight
or not, send in yellowing or wilted
plants, including roots. The Depart
ment will, by means of cultures,
quickly determine 1t for you.

The Department of Botany is max
ing study of the Fusarium Blight
twilt) and Dry Rot of potatoes. Dur
ing the early spring a press bulletin
was sent out calling attention to the
disease in the seed potatoes. In or.
der to keep our correspondents alert
as to the nature of the disease and
the possible losses it may occasion,
and further to obtain fuller data as
to the extent and the amount Of this
disease throughout the potato dis
tricts, this press bulletin is being sent
out.
At this stage Of growth the earliest
symptoms are beginning to show. To
as field trouble, careful descrip.
tion OF the symptoms is here given.
The presence of the wilt disease is
usually conspicuous when the plants
are ten to fourteen inches in height
The preliminary symptoms are light
green color on the lower leaves, ac-
companied during the heat Of the day
by wilt and upward and inward roll
ing Of the upper leaves. The color
gradually changes to yellow which
slowly and evenly covers the affected
vines. The early infected plants are
usually quite evenly scattered
throughout the field, showing evil
dence of disease dissemination by the
)seed; later the amount of yellowing
rapidly increases and the large mum.
ber of infected plants give the field
mottled appearance, which is very
different from the even green color
80 characteristic Of healthy, vigorous
plants. The progress of the disease
in the field is greater in certain areas
than in others, due probably to diff
ferent factors among which may be
previous soil infection, irregular
drainage, conditions favorable for the
disease, so unfavorable for the pota-
to crop.
The subtle and persistent nature
of the disease is such as to mislead
even the plant pathologist. The gen
eral effect of the wilt is to shorten
the life of the crop, bringing about
surprisingly early maturity.
The later symptoms of the trouble
are quite characteristic. The earliest
