POTATO DISEASES

The past spring was very dry
and ditch water was in many places
scarce and late.
In potato regions there were
many fields which had been over
cropped. On account Of grass-
hoppers and drouth and feeding
conditions in previous years, there
was not the normal amount Of al
falfA sod and manure available for
pototo growing. In some parts a
warm, dry summer followed; in
the mountains July was month
of heavy and constant rain. These
are the conditions for potato dis
ease in Colorado. l. Plants not
thriftily started on rich potato soil.

Irish VILLAGERS

Transport, o., Postmaster,
Who Hasn't Sold Stamp
in 5 Weeks, Closes Office

GAINESVILLE. O., Nov. 3.-Ohio
claims the distinction of having the
most remarkable village in America. 1t
is Transport, with seven hundred in
habitants, ten miles east Of here. Jo-
seph Barney, the postmaster, has clos
ed up his postOftice He said he has not
sold a single stamp in five weeks, nor
has he received any incoming or out
going mails.
The people explain that they have
no friends to write to. and that they
do not receive any mail, and that they
are all too busy anyhow. There has
not been an Idle man in transport
since 1909. The mines are running full
time, and every miner owns his own
home.
Three weeks ago the police depart
ment disbanded, the chief declaring
there had been no arrests made within
six months and that it is only a waste
of public money to keep salaried police
men. The village records one fire in
| two years, and the damage was 5000.
A recent census showed that the
population is composed of 637 Irish
men, II Welshmen and 50 Germans
Until five weeks ago there we're were
! only eleven men and women in Irons
port who had no church" A Zanes-
vile priest visited Ironsport twice
since then, and reported that he had
succeeded in converting these eleven
