In the earlier stages these pr0trude
from the tuber in the form of small
nodules, having a rusty brown color
and vary in size from the size of the
head of a pin to that of the ordinary
garden pea. They very soon destroy
the natural appearance of the eye"
ing the appearance of a cauliflower
formation until the tuber is partially
or entirely covered when 1t is con-
verted into a shapeless. spongy mass
giving off an unpleasant rotten odor
The disease is caused by fungus
which enters the potato from the soil
by means of its spores. The minute
spores may remain in infected soil a
period of six CT eight years and pre-
vent the growing of healthy potatoes
on that field during that time.
Soil carried from an infected field
on wagon wheels or the ordinary
farm tools such as harrows or culti-
vators or the feet of animals will
spread the infection. So that whole
community might become infected
from one single source.
No remedy has yet been found for
hope for the freedom Of its destructive
work lies in the prevention of it's in
PRODUCTION into this country. When
once introduced by exporting seed the
infection might spread SO that 1t
would be years before healthy potatoes
could be grown. The cut of this dis
ease as above is from a photograph
of the disease from the New York de-
partment of agriculture, where they
are exerting every effort to prevent
the introduction of the disease into the
state.
Potato Eelworm.
In irrigated sections the infection of
this trouble is much more serious than
in arid districts.
The eelWorm belongs to an order of
ANIMALS far below the ordinary in
sects and are never considered in the
common works on entomology but
due to the seriousness of the pest In
some sections 1t is well to understand
its injuries.
1t is a serious potato pest in some
counties in California. The presence
Of the pest is told by such character
lSllCS dS IOu6u WdIty
on the surface of the potatoes.
| The cause Of it is the nematode
worm and has recently been called the
potato eelWorm.
The males are transparent elongated
and shaped like young eels. The fe-
male Is pear shaped and pearly white.
The young worms feed upon the roots
of young plants causing gals or knots
which may greatly impair the growth
OF the plant.
The winter is passed in the soil and
when once infected it is very difficult
to eradicate them. In Greenhouses
the soil is sometimes sterilized but
this is not practical out-of-doors.
Summer fallowing and frequent cul-
ture may expose them sufficiently to
eradicate them. but it must be very
frequent and thorough.
Moral: do not purchase seed pOta-
toes coming from California or Europe.

Swimming Tank Today

In the final week of his third term
as county clerk of Marion countg, r.
d. Allen met death in the swimming
pool of the Y. NJ. c, A. about s o'clock
this morning. There is question
whether Mr.. Allen died by actual
drowning or whether he suffered a
heart attack brought on by the shock
Of the cold water. He is said to have
been subject to cardiac trouble.
No other person was in the build
ing when the accident occurred. In
going into the pool Mr.. Allen violated
a rule Of the association, which is that
no person shall go into the pool unac-
companied by at least one person. He
did not take shower before entering
the pool, which is also required by the
rules of the association,
