LATE BLIGHT OF POTATOES
Expert Plant Pathologist of Oregon
Agricultural College Gives Advice
of lmn7e diate Value.

Since a large part of the potato
crop of the western part of Oregon
was destroyed by late blight, the fol
lowing advice from F. D. Bailey, ex-
pert plant pathologist at the Oregon
Agricultural College, is of immediate
value
There is no practical seed treat
ment for the control of this fungus
pest" says Mr.. Bailey. Growers
must select the seed with care SO that
rotting or discolored potatoes are not
used. Even then many tubers will be
planted carrying the blight fungus in
a dormant condition, ready to start
infection on tops in moist warm
weather The most that can be hoped
for is to use seed that will terminate
we'll. If conditions are favorable for
blight later it win be necessary to
spray with Bordeaux mixture, but
one should not wait until the fungus
has established itself in a field be-
fore spraying
The foliage should be kept well
covered from the time the blossoms
open, so that the spores scattered by
air currents will be killed as soon as
they fall on the leaves. Three applica-
tons at intervals OF about two
weeks generally have proved suf1i-
cient except in case of prolonged
warm, moist weather. For the first
application the also strength Bor-
deauX mixture should be used and for
subsequent applications the $3.50
mixture.
Il would not wish to argue against
seed treatment as general prac-
tice, however, for We have several
other diseases which can be con
trolled largely in this way. Formalin
should be used, one pint to thirty
gallons of water, and the potatoes
soaked in it in sacks or crates for
two hours before cutting, and then
spread to dry

Babylon and Other Ancient Cities
Took Marked Interest in Good
Roads.

ChicagO.-When or where the first
road was built is not known. Herodo-
tus speaks of a great Egyptian road
on which King Cheops employed 100
goo men for ten years. According 10
the historian, this road was built Of
massive stone blocks ten feet deep
and lined on both sides with temples,
mausoleums, porticos and statues. The
streets Of Babylon are said to have
been paved as early as 1000 B. c., and
several we'll surfaced roads radiated
to neighboTing cities. Carthage, be-
fore its fall. was the center of high
~ developed road system. The an
cient Peruvians had wonderful sys-
tenn Of national roads connecting all
the principal parts of their empire.
Bridges were also built by the an
clients at very early date The Ell
pirates, at Babylon, was crossed by a
stone bridge prior to 1000 B. c., and it
is known that the Chinese built
bridges as public works as early at
$500 B. C.
The first definite and fully authentic
information concerning the systematic
construction and maintenance of per-
manent roads comes to US from the
Romans. It is generally understood
that the Romans learned the art of
road building from the Carthaginians.
However the construction of their
great road was as perfect as that Of
any of their later ones.
The first of the great Roman roads
was from Rome to Capua, distance
Of 142 Italian miles, and was begun
by Appius Claudius about 312 B. c.
1t was known as the Appian Way or
Queen Of Roads" This road was la
ter extended to Brundisium, a total Of
$50 miles, and was probably completed
by julius Caesar. About 220 B. c. the
Flaminian Way was built. 1t crossed
the Mar river On a stone bridge which
had central span of $50 feet, with
rise of~1G0 feet. When Rome reached
the height OF her glory. under the
reign of Augustus, no less than %
great military roads radiated from
the city. More roads extended to every
part of the vast empire and are esti-
mated to have a total length of $4,000
miles.
The Roman construction was in gen
eral extremely massive.
