large number of foreign-grown vari-
eties," the government report recites,
has demonstrated that, with few
exceptions, foreign stock Is not
adapted to the climate and soil con-
ditions in this country" Further
the report says: There also is
great danger of introducing several
new diseases of potatoes which oc.
cur abroad, but which are as yet IN
known here The most dreaded Of
these is the wart disease. Potato
wart, or black scab.' is disease OF
the tubers which forms large, irreg-
ular exescences. at first greenish
or winter and later black. These be-
gin near the eyes, but in advanced
cases involve the whole tuber. There
are no conspicuous evidences Of the
malady in the foliage Of affected
plants. 1t is disease difficult to
detect by inspection in its early
stages and there is nothing to pre-
vent it's distribution in the United
States on imported potatoes. The
danger is the greater since the bad
ly infested districts of England lie
near Liverpool, from whence many
shipments are made
Another potato disease the gov
eminent is trying to quarantine
against is the spongaspora scab,
prevalent in Ireland. 1t does not
destroy the potato, but does mateH-
ally lessen its market value. Still

Markets of the World
ANOTHER WHO
DAY IN The PIT
FLUCTUATIONS VIOLENT AND
BOTH SIDES ARE HIT; MIL
LIONS OF BUSHELS SOLD.

Chicago, April 15.-It was a wilder
day in the widest pit today than even
during the crop scare stampede last
week. Fluctuations today were more
violent and punished not merely one
side but both. Excitement started with
the first rap Of the gong and kept at the
boiling point while transactions ram
els. Countless reports Of crop damage
gave fire to spectators who believed
that the market was going higher de-
spite the ten cents advance which
other Traders, no less confident thought
had fully discounted the Injury, how
ever great.
Difference Of opinion was so wide
that the marFet at the outset varied
from NC lower to NC higher as COM
pared with Saturday night. The sharp
est price changes shown in the May
option. That month started IL, 5 10 to
S1.11, an upward jump Of 4 to INC,
touched $1.11A, dropped to S107h end
then Nhizzed back to $1.103a. Mean
while July twirled in sensational fash"
ion from s1.o5A to s1:o7. Swapping
from 1ac below to more than cent
above the final figures Of the previous
session.
Before the session ended, May wheat
surpassed all previous records on the
bulge and sold as high as $1.11%,
making the extreme range between the
top and bottom prices today 4Hc. The
close was nervous and ragged, with
May at Sill and July at $1.06@1.06h,
showing a net advance Of IN tot ~
to l n C piled in addition to the rise of
10c bushel scored last week.
A spasm Of weakness seized the
corn market at the beginning but the
market soon wheeled into line with the
advancing tendency which at the mo-
ment promised to rule in wheat. The
leading bulls had apparently given
their attention at first to the more ex-
pensive grain, and had been caught
mapping, the benefit going to commits
sion houses that had been heavy
sellers. July opened %@k to N@1c
down at IS to 7sA, declined to 77N and
then rallied to 7S14c. IS
After a further upturn, country Of !
ferings became larger and the market |
receded sharply. The close was weak |
with July rs to Tx net lower at 77Ac
Free unloading carried oats lower |
but the offerings were promptly COB |
oled up and the market soon recover
I'd. July started 1s@Ac to %@hc
cheaper at SAX to IS and then turned |
Upward to 551s@55Ac.
Activity and strength prevailed in
the provision trade. Realizing of profits
BY longs, however, checked the rise, |
which was due to firmness at the
yards and to dear corn. Initial sales |
ran from Saturday nights level to TIC |
higher with September delivery $17.371s

K. o. BROWN AND
ERNE HOOK TONIGHT

New York, April 15.-The fight week
opens at the Madison Athletic club in
Harlem Casino with the Knockout
Brown-Young Erne session Of ten
rounds. This bout promises to be a
struggle between slugger and a scien-
tif1c boxer. Although the conditions
call for 1873 pounds early in the day
Young Erne. who nominally weighs
close to 40 pounds, will actually have
weight on Brown by the time they
meet in the ring. The fact that Erne
will meet Jack O'Brien. the one time
middle-ewight champion. in bout
three weeks away lends unusual in
terest to this match Brown already
holds popular decision over Erne,
who recently beat Gibbons.

another Of the dreaded ailments from
Europe is called black leg, a bac.
terial disease that has no external
symptoms in the potato. 1t exhibits
itself when the crop is half grown
and causes the tops to wither and
curl up, the stems to blacken and die
and kills the entire hill The dis
ease exists in Germany and England
and already has spread to some
states in America through impcrta
tons by way Of Canada. The dan
ger from the diseases is not limited
to single year, as soils once infect
ed are unfit for potato culture for
many years.
