UNIVERSITY BULLETIN ON EEL WORM
How to Recognize the Disease and Treat
it for Eradication.

The agricultural experiment station OF
the University of Nevada has issued bull
letin number 70 OF the subject of the
potato Eel Worm The bulletin is the
work Of 5. b. Doten, entomoligist and
Peter Frandsen, roologist, of the univer-
sity as result of the request of the po-
tato growers for information on the
subject.
The following information is taken
from the bulletin:
The rejection of several carloads OF
Nevada potatoes by the California in
spection service on account of the pres
ence of the potato eel worm, is cause for
considerable concern among Nevada po-
tato growers. The university having
been asked to make an investigation OF
the matters, it devolved upon 5. b. Do
ten and Peter Frandsen to make pre-
liminary inquiry. The following account
makes no claim to originality and is in
tended merely to bring before our farm.
ers the main facts as at present known
concerning the disease.
The surface of the potatoes is more
or less wrinkled, and dotted Will
circular or oval pimples somewhat
smaller than a pinhead, or with more
irregular and larger nodules The no
dulles are of a grayish or brownish color
more or less depressed in the center anC
sometimes surrounded by slight fur
row. In early stages the potato may BIZ
full and firm and the pimples so incon
spicuous that they may be easily over

looked. When the disease is more adj
vanced the nodules are more prominent,
the specimen more or less shrivelled AMI
of softer consistency than normal. The
easiest way to determine whether sus-
pected tuber is diseased or not is to cut
will show several dry brownish spots
somewhat smaller than the head of a pin
and extending from sixteenth to a
quarter of an inch into the flesh. They
are usually circular or oblong i'll shape
and consist of brownish ring enclosing
central, whitish pulpy core. Beneath
the pimples there is similar brown,
dry-rot like area which may or may not
connect with the interior spots or worm
burrows. Sometimes the burrows are SO
numerous and close together as to form
an irregular continuous mass like num-
Der of small shot close pressed together.
More rarely the burrows may extend
deeper into the flesh.
BADLY diseased potatoes may shrivel
up to one. half the natural size, are softer
and less nutritious than normal and of
course are not desirable for human food.
The burrows afford entrance for the bac-
terra of decay, so that infested potatoes
will not keep as we'll as healthy ones
"If portion of the pulpy center OF
one of the burrows is scraped out AMI
examined with the microscope, it will be
found to contain numerous eggs, larvae,
young and adult worms like those ig-
ured in the illustration. The adults are

at most one-twenty-ffth of an inch long.
The potato cells have broken walls and
the starch grains are fewer i'll number
than i'll healthy tissue and those present
are of smaller size.
The disease is spread by planting in
fected seed potatoes. We do not know
to what extent the worms may live and
multiply i'll the soil itself or how long a
soil NAV remain infected. This import
ant point can be settled only by careful
observation and experiment
IS. b. Doten visited the offices of the
California horticultural commission at
Sacramento and San Francisco for the
purpose of getting exact information
about the rejected potato shipments and
their mode of inspection service COM
prises two sets of inspectors-statea and
county. The service is complete and
thorough, so much SO that material
passed by a State or county inspector
may later on be rejected by some other
county inspector. Such system makes
for efficiency, and is probably necessary
to effectively keep out diseased plants:
but it makes our problem here difficult
one, inasmuch as single inspection
may easily overlook few slightly dis
eased potatoes, and an inspection before
shipment will not insure its acceptance
hv the California authorities
Fortunately most of the potatoes
shipped from Nevada during the last
season successfully passed the California
inspection Only a few carloads were
rejected, so that the disease is not as yet
wide spread. The efforts of some dis
honest shippers to dispose of potatoes
food, should be guarded against by ev-
cry grower, shipper and all who deal i'll
patatoes, making themselves familiar
with the appearance of the disease, and
combining in an honest effort to stamp
it out. Some sort, of inspection service
should be Immediately established i'll
the sections where potatoes are grown
for shipment purposes. Care should be
exercised in the purchase of seed pota-
toes to insure that the disease is not in
troduced into regions as yet free from it.
1t will probably be necessary to quaran-
tine against infected localities
How to free infected soil from the
parasite is question which the knowl-
edge at present at our command will
not permit us to answer satisfactorily.
Sterilization and dsinfectauts on so
large scale is not practicable. Posi-
bly, deep blowing letting the ground lie
fallow for year, or, where feasible,
covering the fields with water during
the winter months, may prove to be eff
fective. The best advice for the pres
ent, it seems to US, is to plant infected
fields with some other kind of crop.
preferably grain or alfalfa rather than
root crop, such as sugar beets, which
might be attacked by the same pest
The university will be prepared up
on request from any section to send a
man to demonstrate the appearance of
the disease and of the parasite, and to
give such information and assistance as
he NAV be able. y

of Surveyor General Deadly, can by
making an examination OF his complete
report, Immediately see the far reaching
hand of the law 1t has been customary
for years to assess railroad and other
range lands at the rate of about twenty
five cents per acre. Under the provs-
ions of the new law they must be assessed
at the rate of 81 Is per acre, or raise
of 81 per OGRE.
The following is a rough estimate of
the acreage that comes under the new
law. Some of this land is assessed at
far higher rate, which includes the irri-
gated and improved lands which go in
at from $40 TO $40 per acre. On the
whole available lands for taxation is EN-
braced in the table:
Patented State lands ,2S0, 512 acres
Contracted State lands ASS, 600
Railroad lands 5,734, $50
Government entries 700, 900 +"
Total $3.50, l6S acres
Placing the entire acreage i'll the aS
sessmentment roll at valuation 81 rs
per acre it brings grand total of valua
ton subject to taxation OF 81 ,437 no 90,
which makes a raise of al least eight
million dollars over the present valua-
ton OH lands held by private owners
and the railroads.
There were but few who realized the
importance of this law Senator Bell
matter in hand quietly, and with no
brass band and no newspaper mention
of any character, put the bill through.
Even after its passage, and during the
time the Governor had it under consid-
Grafton, there was little said concerning
this revenue maker for the State and
counties. 1t went through without dis
cussion and Is really the most beneficial
law enacted during the session.
Not only does the State receive 90
cents on each dollar of taxation raised
but the counties wherein the lands are
situated receive a boost i'll assessabe
property that was beyond their thought
in figuring their tax rates for this year.
With the enforcement of this law such
counties as Washoe, Itlko, Humboldt,
Chur chill and others where the railroads
control lands will have a treasury that
will almost overflow The difference be-
tween IS cents per acre and 81 IS is cas-
lily calculated.
sent for printed copies of the new law
There seems to be every disposition on
the part of the Assessors to enforce the
law II will in the end probably have
the effect of making the large land
holders let go of their principalities and
thus the small owner can get in. The
law in no sense works hardship on the
average farm holder His lands are as
sessed at rate far in excess of the min
imum law. 1t reaches the big holder
who is hanging onto land for speculative
purposes and brings about just taxa
ton that the counties will benefit by.
II is the first time in the history of Ne
vada that it has been possible TO fix
minimum tax on lands that are held by
corporations who refuse to sell and who
have side-stepped taxation to the vexa-
ton of the entire State The closer
this bill is studied the better il grows.

MOST IMPORTANT LAW or SESSION
Means Much Revenue for the State and
and all the Counties.

One of the biggest laws made by the
last Legislature is one of the smallest
in volume. Twenty-one lines of print
ed matter. covers the subject matter
and it should bring i'll more revenue
than any other law that went through.
MANY people are specializing on this
new law which has the title of Senate
Bill, No. l40, introduced by Senator
Bell, known as An Act requiring the
minimum valuation upon lands in the
State for the purposes of taxation. 1t
don't sound very heavy but the follow
ing is the text:
Section | Hereafter no land of any
description in the State of Nevada
owned by any individual, partnership,
association, estate, corporation or other
wise, shall be assessed at less than one
dollar and twenty-f five cents per acre,
either by the County Assessor or by
the State Board of Assessors.
Sec. 2. If the County Board of
EQUALIZATION shall ascertain that any
land within its county has been assessed
upon valuation of less than one dollar
and twenty five cents per acre, or as
not been assessed at ALL said Board shall
Immediately notify the County Assessor
10 pay into the County Treasury the
taxes due on such land upon a valu-
ton of at least one dollar and twenty
five cents per acre in such sum as will
Weld the full amount of taxes due up
on such land upon its true value and
which valuation shall not be less than
one dollar and twenty-five cents per
acre. If such County Assessor fail to
pay such taxes within ten days after
such notification bv the County Board of
Equalization, it is hereby made the duty
OF the District Attorney to file and pros
ecute diligently suits against such AS
SCISSOR aud his surety or surieties on
his official bond for the amount of such
taxes.
Sec. ). If at any time hereafter the
State Board of Assessors should place
valuation upon any lands within the
State of Nevada, the provisions of this
Act shall apply to such valuation so
placed and in the event of the violation
OF the provisions of this Act by said
Board of Assessors, it is hereby made
the duty of the Attorney General to in
struct the various District Attorneys to
file and prosecute diligently suits against
the several Assessors comprising said
Board as hereinbefore provided.
The Carson Appeal says that the effect
of the above as will be seen, is to place
a minimum valuation of SIPS per acre
on all lands in this State. 1t is compul
sorry valuation; the Assessors must fix
this rate or pay the sum out of their
pockets or their bondsmen will have to
dig mp the difference.
Senator Bell quietly worked the meas
ure through. 1t slid along the legisla
tive groove without much friction and
the Governor signed il. 1t is stated
that the big corporations will test its
constitutionality but on the other hand
Governor eddie must have looked into
it's legal merits before affixing his sigma
ture, as he vetoed several bills on ac-
count of constitutional irregularity.
