The blight of the potato, which has
this year appeared in the form of an
epidemic in many parts of western
Washington, has been identified by the
pathologist of the State Experiment
station as the so-called late blight" a
disease due to infection by parasite
fungus of internal habit of growth.
The symptoms of the disease are quite
characteristic, it's first evidence being
the appearance of brown spots on the
margins of the leaves, and the gradual
extensions of these areas, until the
entire leaf is involved. In most re-
gions these spotted leaves have water
soaked appearance, sometimes accom-
panied by purplish tint. A general
epidemic of the late blight of the
potato, often, though not always, &C
companies seasons of unusual rainfall.
The fungus invades not only the leaves
of the diseased plants. but the stems
and branches as well, extending from
these, in the case of some varieties,
into the tubes.
The development of the fungus is
very rapid, requiring from few hours
to three or four days to bring about
a destruction of many or all of the
plants in field.
An examination of the tubers of ser
iously diseased plants usually reveals
the presence Of discolored tissue. This
is certain evidence of the disease and
such tubers should never be used fol-
seed. Oftatimes a few or all of the
potatoes within hill are affected and
in cases where there is plenty of moist
ure in the soil, accompanied by warm
weather, wet rot may follow.
This disease may be controlled by
the use of bordeaux mixture in the
ratio of $3.50, which should be applied
as soon as the young plants have
reached height of six or seven inches
and should be followed by at leas
three subsequent sprayings Of from II
to Is days apart. There is no known
remedy which can be applied after thu
plant makes it's appearance, with any
certainty of success in Graduating the
disease.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 23.-William
Jennings Bryan, discussing Col. Roose

said tonight:
Mr.. Roosevelt says that the trusts

the Democrats for wanting to make il
impossible for private monopoly to
exist. We have said that in four
campaigns. But Mr.. Roosevelt says
No; you must not try to prevent mon,
opoly. Just regulate it. Let it grow
and grow; let it merge and merge; let
it consolidate and consolidate, but
watch it. My friends, he watched

could merge or not, it went to him and
asked him. and he said, yes, MERGE"

HOW ''PR0TECTION'
| HITS THE FARMER
Agricultural Implements Sold
Much Cheaper Abroad.

When jeremiah M. Rusk, then Secre-
tary OF Agriculture, became convinced,
in 1880, that the American Harvester
company was selling farm machinery
in Russia, Australia and other wheat
growing countries at lower prices than
it was selling them for to American
farmers he said:
This won't do. The
irst thing the farmer will do
= will be to make howl
against trusts and protection that
does not protect. Whether justly
or not, he will charge it to the Re
publican party. am as certain as
/ can be of anything that this mower
and reaper trust will cost the Repub-
iican party hundreds Of votes by these
methods"
But the man is not the only one to
suffer, for the farmers wife has pro-
verbally hard time and life. She
has to help her husband keep the farm
running, without pay, but tries to
make a little pin money by making
butter. Even on this job protection,
which ignores all decencies. robs her
of her mite by compelling her to pay
for an Ames 4-gallon cylinder churn,
made in South birmingham, Mass, 81
per cent more than she price at which
| the Ames Pillow company sells this
churn for export
This is the lure" protection Of
fers the farmers. On seventeen pur
chases that would be necessary on
well-equipped farm the American has
to pay a total of $106.66 more than
| the same articles can be bought for
| IL they are for use anywhere out
NHe of the United States.
