on the sprouts. Whenever a plant
shows a leaf that is partly black, 1t
should be dug up and destroyed.
Potatoes from affected plants will
rot quickly after being dug. AS the
germs of this disease remain in the
soil over winter, the ground should
not be used again for this crop.
In the north the most popular varie-
ties grown are the Benson, large
white yam type, very smooth, with
brown, yellowish skin; the Red Jer-
sey, smooth, pinkish red short and
plump, fresh greenish-yellow. sweet,
rather dry; Florida. practically vine
less, large yellowish white, brownish
gray skin, rather dry and very sweet;
Yellow Carolina, vigorous grower,
white, brownish yellow skin, very wet,
coarse and sweet. This type, while
not so popular in the north, is pre-
ferred by southerners to all others for
table use.

DETERMINE FAT
AND SALT BUTTER
Circular of Department of Agrt-
culture Which Explains an
Apparatus Invented by
Prof. Shaw.

Secretary Wilson of the Department
of Agriculture calls attention to new
test for fat and salt in butter which is
described in circular No. 202, Bureau
of Animal Industry. just issued by the
department
This test was invented by Roscoe H
Shaw, chemist in the dairy division.
and is especially designed for use in
creameries. The circular explains the
apparatus in detail and gives complete
instructions for operating the test,
placing in the hands of practical
creamerymen a simple, rapid and &C
curate method by which can be de-
termined the percentage of fat and
salt in butter, and which in connec-
tion with one of the reliable moisture
tests already in use. makes possible
the complete analysis of butter right
before the churn.
The new test for fat will probably
not require more than five dollars
worth of apparatus beside that already
on hand in most creameries. The
same centrifuge ID used as in the
Babcock test and the same acid.
The special apparatus consists of
separatory funnel of glass with
capillary stem. The separatory funnel
is essentially a cylinder holding about
two and a half ounces constructed
with a glass stopper at the top and a
stop-cock in a capillary tube at the
bottom A special socket is necessary
to hold the funnel while in the centri-
fuge
The principal steps involved in the
test are: The washing out of the salt
from a weighted charge of the butter
with hot water, the dissolving out of
the curd with hot dilute sulphuric
acid, the separation of the acid solu-
ton from the fat and the weighing Of
the fat When the salt test is to be
made the wash water is collected and
the salt in it is determined by the
usual chemical reaction.
The time consumed in making the
fat test is not much If any more than
is required to make a careful test for
| fat in cream by the Babcock method.
A little more time is required il the
! percentage of salt is wanted.

WENT BACK ON THE SHELVES
Crownlny insult to His Beloved Books
Was More Than the Professor
Could Stand.

Perhaps the bitterest moment in the
life of lover of books is when he
finds that his treasures are valued by
no one but himself The late Prof.
Churton Collins once tried to weed
out his books, after he had become
convinced that either the surplus or
their owner would have to move out
Of the library.
The wedding was a painful process,
but at last the secondhand book-deal-
er was invited to name his price for
the uprooted weeds They're no
good to me-" was the disconcerting re-
ply.
What, none of them"
mo, not one"
Some one suggested that as the
books had to go, the dealer had bet
ter have them for nothing. 1t was
bitter moment for Mr.. Collins, but
finally he assented. The man then re-
marked:
"That'll be half a dollar
What do you mean? What for?"
exclaimed the victim In restrained
tone of voice.
ITO take them away" said the man.
That was too much for Mr.. Collins.
The dealer was driven forth with OBJ
1urgations, after which, with sigh of
relief. the owner replaced the books
upon his Satisfactorily Companion.

South BE With Much Profit In the
North-Potash Most Important

While the sweet potato is generally

places in the north. The Island of
Muscatine in the Mississippi is largely
given up to sweet potatoes and mel

short Miss Gertrude Coburn, teacher
Of domestic science in the Iowa col
lege, has collected some valuable data
regarding the table merits Of the diff
ferent kinds of sweet potatoes grown
in the north.
Mr.. Theodore Williams of Benson.
Nebraska, and Mr.. F. d. Wells, a
Michigan grower, have been very sue
cessful in the cultivation of the pota-
to; and the results of the work Of
these investigators are briefly sum-
married. here:
soil on which the crop was grown was
not rich, having previously grown
nursery stock. 1t was not MANFRED
but thoroughly prepared.
Mr.. Wells says that the soil best
suited to sweet potatoes is a warm,
moderately rich sand If it is too rich
there will be excessive growth of top
at the expense of root.
Before planting, the surface of the
ground should be ridged, and the
plants set in the usual way about the
first week in June.
The most common way to grow the
plants is a hotbed. After the first
heated period is over, the ruDers are
placed quite closely together, but not
touching, and covered with manure;

they are then covered with three
inches of soil, the bed covered with
glass and watered as often as neces-
sary.
The buds or shoots which develop
should be transplanted to the field
only when the ground is quite warm.
Although plants are generally set in
ridges, some growers prefer to set on
level. The ridge system is prob
ably most desirable in the north.
The center of the ridges should be
about 32 feet apart, and the plants
set IS inches in the row.
Good cultivation is necessary. This
should be frequent and shallow to save
moisture, and 1t will also add to the
yield.
