VEGET TABLE DISEASES
 THREATEN OUR CROPS
State Department Investi- gating Spread of Plant
 Troubles in Connecticut

New Haven, June 30.-Diseases of trees, garden and field crops and the means of prevention and cures where treatment is possible are discussed in the report just issued by the Connec- ticut Agricultural Station of the last two years work by Dr. G. F. Clinton the botanist. The report says:
 A pine-currant disease introduced from Europe on seedlings has been found in a few places in the state. This is a fungous trouble, which lives in one stage of development on the pine and in another stage on the cur rant. The fungus can only spread from one to the other host If it spreads abundantly, the disease is ca pablo of doing great damage by stunt ing and deforming the young trees.
 In consequence of the new interest in forest planting there have been set in the state within the last few years about 640,000 imported pine seedlings besides about two million seedlings grown by the forester in the stations nursery at Rainbow and sold at cost to persons who are planting forest land. All of the imported seedlings. with few exceptions, have been twice inspected carefully and only a very few infected specimens found and destroyed. The fact that the alternative hosts, currant and gOoseberry, are not very common in a wild state, makes it less likely that the disease will do extensive damage
 There is 9 similar pine-sweet fern disease which is much more likely to make trouble.
 A record of five years tests OF spraying potatoes for blight, at the station farm, proves that even in years when blight does little or no damage through spraying has more than paid for itself in increased yield of potatoes. Growers who will spray carefully and thoroughly can protect their crop quite satisfactorily in al most any season from blight and the associated potato rot, with the assur- ance that if the weather conditions of the season prevent the prevalence of blight without their aid, neverthe- less the spraying will generally pay for itself in increased yield
 paper on the oospores which are the resting. or winter stage of the po- tato blighA is chiefly of interest to botanists. Dr. Clinton has at last succeeded in growing these spores in cultures so that they can be described This has never before been accom- plished.

 The simplicity of the device is one of its strongest recommendations while it's almost infallible precision in protecting the pedestrian from d serious, if not fatal, accident com mands immediate attention. The working device shows a bar between the front wheels, covering both the wheels. This bar is movable and can be moved backward by the slight est pressure, and is made in three parts to allow the center part to pass between the wheels. Under the car a scissor-shaped jaw is placed, protected with cushions, standing open, covering both the front wheels and always ready to grasp the legs of any pedestrian when brought into action. Then the jaw is pushed backward by powerful springs with speed greater than the speed of the vehicle. At the same moment the jaw is closed, striking the victim un- der the knees, involuntarily forcing him to sit down and holding him firmly in its grip until the car comes to a standstill, when freedom is giv- en back to the victim
 To replace the apparatus after ac- ton simple system of winding is used. All the delicate parts are GOV cred with tubes, so that mud or snow cannot put them out of working or der. With this system the accident happens before the vehicle and in front of the driver, while with the old systems it happens under the car
