ease. New Jersey is suffering from
/ SO percent disease, and the Greeley
district is facing a poor prospect.
July and August are bad months in
the rain belt states. and make the
showing much worse by the time
they run their course of possible
drouth and abnormal heat.
your potato crop in Idaho is only
a drop in bucket of the worlds po-
tato consumption, but If conditions
make it so that your potatoes are
needed and at high prices, it is i'm
portant to Idaho farmers that they
have as many as possible to sell. The
trouble find with them is that they
are not using the best seed, are not
particular enough about securing a
good stand, and they are keeping the
water off of them when they need it.
These things are cutting down their
yield terribly, and the weakened vi
tality of the potato plant is letting
the disease known as stem rot get a
stronger hold.
Farmers have become imbued
with the idea that potatoes must not
be watered until after they bloom,
and we can't get that out of their
heads. Some of them are set in their
ways and will not water them in June
Others will not water them until the
leaves become dark color. All this
is wrong. Potatoes do the best when
they have enough moisture to keep
them growing well and the leaves Of
pea green color Farmers should
study color, and keep pea green In
mind and keep the potato vine that
color no matter when or how often
they have to water them, and this
does not mean flooding or saturating
the ground, it means giving 1t mois-
ture. The growing season Is so short
here, they must be pushed all sum-
mer to develop the crop, and every
interruption of drouth or flooding

How Frostbite Comes.

The first effect of cold on the skin is
to contract the tiny vessels that connect
arteries and veins. Arteries are yes
sells that take blood from the heart
Veins are those that bring blood back
to the heart, and the connecting yes
sells are called capillaries. While these
little vessels are cop-. acting the skin
itself becomes teuser. In few mo-
ments or minutes the effects change.
The tiny nerves whose stimulation
caused contraction of the capillaries
are more or less paralyzed. and the yes
sells dilate so the skin gets red Soon
the veins are dilated, and the skin be-
comes blush. Then the nutrient flaid

and the stretched skin ruptures or
"chaps." If the cold Is more severe its
action Is deeper. and the blood itself
may be coagulated. This is frostbite.

The Peacock at Home.

tail, as many suppose, but is compos-
ed of feathers which grow out just
above the tail and are called the tail

them. and they are mentioned, too. in

Rome many thousand peacocks were
killed for the great feasts which the

SAVED THE coLoRs.


During the Austro-Prussian war q
body Of Prussian soldiers came upon q
ditch half full OF wounded and dying
Austrians. Among those who were
badly wounded was a young officer.
They found him lying ON his back In
the wet ditch. Touched with pity for
him. some Of the Prussians went to
him and wished to remove him SO that
he might be attended to by the sur
gcon. But he besought them to leave
him alone. telling them that he felt
quite comfortable Soon after this he
died Then when they lifted his body
they found why he had begged them
to leave him alone. He had been the
standard bearer for his regiment.
In the terrible battle OF the day the
flag had been torn into tatters. and
when he was sore wounded so that he
soon must die his soldier spirit was
still strong within him. and rather
than let the "bit of rag" fall into the
enemy's hand he folded 1t up and
placed 1t beneath him SO that none
might see it. This was why he would
rot let himself be moved by the kind
ly Prussian soldiers. He would die
protecting the precious flag.
His foes were so touched by his no.

THE GAME OF GOLF.
10 Very Serious Matter With the

u 10 . Very Serious Matter With the
Real Scot Enthusiast.
In Fife and the Lothians every one
plays golf-men of leisure, working
men and loafers, the last class prOduc-
ing the finest players. Many Of the
Scotch towns have public courses, and
even where they are private the arti-
san clubs may use them on generous
terms. Says Stewart Dick in 1.-THE
Pageant Of the Forth"
There is something very Scotch
about the Scotch golfer. He seems to
suit the leisurely and contemplative
game. Keep your eye ON the ball.
Slow back and Aye be up are writ
ten all over him. As nation one
would say the Scotch were profession
al. the English amateur, golfers. for
there >shOuld be nothing dilettante
about the game of golf.
How serious matter it Is may be
judged from the old story of the Scotch
minister. Emerging after hot and
unhallowed strife in the bunker, his
profane words still echoing in his ears,
he mops his heated brow and exclaims
bitterly:
"'Ah maun gle it up! All maun gle
