There is too much talk of Clothes"
remarked Miss Abarbanell to a woman
who was 'raviVg'' about her gowns a
night or two ago.
One would think that they are the
only things required for success. AS a
matter of fact. I wonder how people
ever came to consider clothes so i'm.
P%ortant: What are they. any way?
Just a cover for our personality! And
after all. 1t is the personality that
counts"
the prima donna was almost pet
ulant, as though It were entirely out
OF the question to think that clothes
had any say at all.
IF clothes were the important
thing" she went on. "why couldn't a
wax figure take the place Of the star?

love with a wax figure. no matter how
beautifully 1t was dressed? You did?
Well. I " have. But I have seen
many men fall in love with women
who were not at all ~attractively gown

charm.
"Those two things. personality and
charm. are vastly more important
than anything a oma hangs on her

every actress should take extreme care
to have dresses that suit her particu-

disease will not cause any damage.
Next year the writer expects to begin
experiments at the Puyallup Expert
ment Station which will extend over
a period of years, to determine the
number of applications necessary and
the best method of applying.
The strength of Bordeaux mixture
to apply cannot be definitely stated.
Much depends OH the quantity used
and the method of application. Weak
bordeaux applied in the form of a
fine mist under high pressure cover
ing the plants well will give bet

carelessly applied in the form of
coarse spray and with low pressure.
1t is plain however that as the plants
get larger and the season advances,
the danger from the disease increases,
thus necessi tating stronger mixture.
The writer advises the first spray to
be 4-4-50, and the subsequent spray

Potato Blight


rot, emitting a characteristic strong
odor. On the tuber the disease shows
first on the upper sides of the tuber
lying near the surface of the soil. 1t
shows first as a slight brownish
or purplish discoloration of the
skin. In damp, wet soils this rotting
spreads rapidly over the surface and
spreads inward so that the entire
tuber browns and decays before har-
vest, constituting what is known as
the "wet-rot. +" In drier soils OF sea-
sons the progress is slower and the
brown stain only extends a short dis
lance into the tuber Meanwhile the
attacked surface dries out, becomes
sunken and of darker color, often
purplish black in the white skinned
varieties. This is known as the
"dry -rot"a may be much in evil
dence at harvesting time, or 1t may
show but little then and tend to de-
velop during the first month or two
of storage.
CAUSE AND DESCRIPTION.
This disease is caused by fungus,
which in itself is plant which has
lost the power of manufacturing its
own food material, and can only live
on green plants. 1t exists by absorb
bling it's food material from the plant
on which it lives, and in this manner
causes the results from the plant on
which it lives, and in this manner
causes the results already spoken of.
The life history or succession Of
stages through which this fungus
passes as is evident on the vine and
tuber is rather simple. The growth
first commences from what is known
as spore. This may be compared to
the seed of any Towering plant for it
answers the same purpose. The spore
or seed of the fungus is an egg shaped
body too small to be seen with any
thing except microscope, and when
it falls on leaf of a potato plant, one
of two things may happen if the leaf
is moist. First, it may terminate by
sending out a small tube which pene
trates the opening of the leaf, or Sec
ond, 1t may divide up into several
smaller spores, each of which have
the power of motion and can swim
about in the moisture on the leaf.
These finally come to rest and germi-
nate by sending out a small tube
which will penetrate a leaf opening as
in the other case. The latter method
is the one which usually takes place,
the former being favored by high
temperature In either case moisture
must be present or the process will
not take place, hence the extensive
attacks sometimes Immediately after
a rain. After the germ tube has
penetrated the leaf, it lengthens and
branches, and each branch lengthens
and branches so that in short time
a mass of threads has been formed
inside the leaf. These threads grow
between the cells of the leaf and
send out small sucker-like growths
which penetrate the cells and absorb
the food material of the potato plant.
This kills the part of the plant
affected and the disease becomes ap-
parent. About this time some tubes
