There liz a good bit written and read
these days about the daring and thrill

around In nothing, but If the folks here
want to see something just as hair
raising and exciting let them stand
down on Main street where the new
Post Office is going UP and watch the
fearless steel workers elambering
around the great skeleton frame. That
kind Of work seems TO have the same
game of aviation, and ii certainly Will
make any law abiding citizen open MS
eyes to see the cool way these men go
about their work. They are making
astonishingly rapid progress now that
the foundation work has been done, and
IL the work continues at its present
rate it won't be long until the new

The ordinary scab on potatoes is
caused by fungus disease. but there
is a sort OF scab caused by maggots
of a species or gnat, Epidapus sea-
bies.
The fungus scab can be checked
by rolling the seed in sulphur.
Professor Halsted at the New Jer-
sey station used 500 pounds Of
sulphur per acre, rolling the seed
in 1t after cutting and then scatter
ing what did not adhere to the seed
In the burrows. But this is more ex-
pensive than the formaldehyde

In a solution of one pound OF for
maldehyde. 40 per cent strength. in

and only fertilizers used. Then use
only clean seed. The sulphur Is all
right. but | think the formaldehyde
is cheaper.

where there are no wild vines near
by. If she will get a wild barren
vine from the country and plant it
alongside the Scuppernong, it will set
fruit. There is seldom trouble with

where there are plenty of wild vines
around, as in North Carolina. She
can get male plant from almost any
nursery. w. F. MASSEY.

In cleaning ano reshaping old

The growing OF early peas Is about
the simplest OF all truck crops. The
land should be light and warm. and
tho fertilizer best suited to them is
100 pounds OF nitrate OF soda and
400 pounds OF acid phosphate per
acre. Run burrows three feet apart.
and put the fertilizer in these. Then
bed on this and reopen the burrows
so as to mix the fertilizer with the
soil. Cover about six inches deep
and harrow the burrows smooth.
Start working with the cultivator as
soon as they are up and work till

Kindly tell me If sulphur
sprinkled on seed Irish potatoes
when cut for planting will in
any way affect the vitality of
the seed pieces? | have heard
of people doing this as a pre-

virtue in the practice? Do you
think that sulphur used in this
way would in any way protect
