DISEASES OF TOMATOES.
Wilt Will Not Yield to Spraying -
Leaf Spot Does.

A disease VI the tomato that Is some.
times .onfased with leaf spots is prop
erly kkowA as fusarium wilt. That this
is not in. the least affected by the appli-
cations OF spraying materials to the
plants is fully proved in the expert.
ments carried on at the experiment
station of the University Of Illinois.
This wilt has caused the loss OF
many a promising crop, and the first
Indication that the plants are affected
Is the sudden whiting Of entire branch
es or even the entire plant. Within n
few days the wilted portions become
brown and dead. and an examination
of the witeA stems reveals diseOlor-
ed, browAish appearance of the wooded
portion, The plants may die before
any fruit has matared or after any
part of the crop has been gathered
The first season that the wilt ap,
pears in a field usually only few
plants are affected, but IL the field is
used for tomatoes the next year the
attack is likely to be very severe, for
the disease Is carried over In the soil,
and the length Of time the disease will
remain in badly infected soil is not
known. It is therefore important to
practice rotation Of crops so that the
soil will not become badly Infected.
Care should also be taken In secur-
ing soils for the beds In which the
plants are grown. Fresh soil should
be put in the beds each year. and 1t
should be secured from a part of the
farm which has never grown tomatoes
nor received the wash from tomato
fields. 1t is also important to avoid
new field by means of
soil carried from an infected field on
tools or the feet Of men or farm ami.

names and addresses of representative
farmers with whom to CORRESPOND In
disseminating agricultural informa-
ton.
AT certain periods each day demon
strations are given at different parts
OF the grounds. These demonstrations
include packing Of fruit. manipulation
OF the Babcock test. spraying opera-
ions. including the mixing of sprays.
as well as their application: killing.
dressing and packing of poultry for
market; sanitary handling of milk:
transplanting, budding and pruning Of
trees; seed selection. cheese and butter
making. testing agricultural machn-
cry. cooking. blowing matches. etc.
In exhibiting animals hay and bed
ding should be provided free if pos
slDle. and grain should be sold at a
very moderate rate to exhibitors. This
matter Of feed at fairs has caused
lot of trouble. Grating very frequent
~ creeps in, leading to intense dissat-
islactlon and often to unpleasant ex-
periences.
Inc judging must be done, so far as
possible. by wholly disinterested ex-
perts. The judge ought to be ready to
explain any finding if he is asked to do
SO. There are plenty of expert judges
available in all lines now. as there is
no reason why the best of judges
should not be secured.
The matter of concessions and
amusements has caused more contrO-
Versy and discussion than any other
thing in connection with the state or
county fair. Trials of speed, acrobatic
and sleight of hand performances. ex-
hibitions of trained animals. moving
pictures. military drills. games of bali.
root races and other similar entertain
ments. are all unobjectionable when
properly controlled and provide enter
talnment for those who come to spend
an idle hour
But they should be very carefully
supervised and not be permitted to In
terfere with the main exhibits and
more educational features Of the fair.
All entertainments should be restricted
10 certain hours. when ii would be
possible for all who desire to witness
and enjoy them.
Ii Is suggested that all county fairs
'hall be supervised by the secretary OF
NE state board of agriculture or some
me from the department of agricni-
.ure. general meeting Of representa-
Ives of all the fair associations should
'e held each year for conference and
discussion of important topics.

Bulletin on Undrawn Poultry.

The sale of undrawn poultry
Ii. e., poultry containing the en-.
trails or intestines) is forbidden
under the food laws of Idaho
which prohibit the sale of ANY
part of an animal unfit for food. q
The following sections of the
law cover the same. as construed
by this department:
An article of food shall be
deemed to be adulterated if il
consists in whole or in part of a
diseased, filthy, decomposed, in
fected, tainted, putrid or rotten
animal or vegetable substance or
substances: Or any part or por-
ton of an animal diseased or
otherwise unfit for food"
1t shall be unlawful for any
person or persons, corporation or
corporations to sell or offer for sale
the meat of any cattle, sheep,
swine, fish, game, fowl or poultry
which is blown, tainted, heated.
soured, raised, stuffed, putrid or
impure, or which, for other rea-
sons, is unfit for human food"
The possession of any food,
the sale of which is forbidden by
law is prima facie evidence that
it is for sale.
This Bulletin is mailed to deal
ers so that they may not violate
the law. Prosecutions will be
instituted against any and all
persons found so doing.

food and sanitary Inspector.

IN ADDITION to grains and pasture,

animal. When a ration is so fst-

man who feeds alfalfa hay, and
alfalfa alone, to his brood mare
is feeding too high a proportion
of nitrogen. To handle and elm

unusually large quantity of nj
trogen is too severe a tax on a
pregnant mare and is liable to
result in the foaling of a defect
i've colt. The brood mare needs
a variety or balanced ration. In
the same way the steer, the
sheep, the brood SOW, and in fact
all classes of animals require ra-
tons adapted or balanced to
their needs.
A pig five months old requires
one pound of digestible nitrogen
Gus feed to five pounds of digest
ible carbohydrates. A ration
can be so balanced by using 2
pounds of shorts, 1 pound of
corn, three-fourths pound of bar
ley, and one-fourth pound of
tankage. A pure bred Poland
China barrow 80 fed on the Uni
versity Farm weighs 265 pounds

no one OF any special position and stand

Inrst objection. there is not much to be

soms other things. But on social
grounds no one can possibly have any
objection. Scrubbing Is an art INDUCED

OF course the Duke does not scrub
