HAS
ADDITIONS TO
THE LIST OF
CONTRABAND

Washington. March 12.-News today Of
considerable additions to the already for
n,idable list of contraband laid down by
the British government was received with
evident surprise at the state department,
Official notice OF the new order-in-coun-
Gil has not yet reached the department.
officials frankly confess their inability
to understand the underlying principles
OF the British action, which is expected
TO result in further serious embarrass-
ment to American trade.
The addition Of cotton seed oil to the
contra band list. coming on top OF the
difficulties placed in the way of free eX-
port cotton from the United States, is
looked upon as particularly irritating be-
cause assurances had been received early
in the war from Great Britain that cotton
seed oil and its products would not be
declared contrab band.
Because little wool is normally export
ed from the United States 10 Germany
the additiono that staple to the list will
make cirtually no difference if the action
facilitates the release to American mills
of the large quantities OF Australian wool
which have been held up by embargoes.

The so-called black heart" of the
potato and the conditions which pro-
duce the same are familiar to many
| large shippers of potatoes in Aroostook
county. The conditions are not So
familiar to less experienced shippers.
or the public in general in other parts
of the State.
The attention of the Maine Agricul-
tural Experiment Station was first
called to this trouble some years ago.
A report came from one of the large
potato growing districts of Virginia
that two carloads of potatoes which
We're said to have been shipped from
Pressure Isle in this State had arrived
| in very poor condition, and apparently
were affected by new and dangerous
disease. Following this a supply of
these potatoes were sent to this Sta
ton for an examination by the path
ologist
Outwardly the tubers appeared per-
fectly healthy and normal in every
| respect. When cut into the interior
showed quite different condition, ior
starting from the center and spread
ing outward. the affected area being
larger or smaller in different potatoes)
the tissues appeared to be entirely
dead, decidedly flabby in texture, ana
varying from grayish black to inky
black in color. If the latter, which
| was usually the case, the diseased
portions stood out in marked contra st
to the white flesh of the remaining
portion Of the tuber. With Very few eX-
ceptions the trouble was confined en-
tirely within what is known as the
vascular ring. or within the area
bounded by the faint line which can
be seen from one -fourth to one third
of an inch below the surface Of 4
healthy tuber when the latter is cut
across
If the potatoes were allowed to stand
for week or two after the injury &C
CURED, this discolored area began Il
break away in the center. leaving a
hollow lined by the blackened tissue,
which hollow might eventually occupy
a large portion Of the originally black =
ened area. This. however, does not
resemble and should not be confused
with the ordinary hollow heart which
frequently occurs in large. overgroWn
potatoes.
Microscopic examination and re-
peated attempts by the Psychologists Il
Isolate bacteria or fungi failed to give
any evidence Of living organism as-
ISOLATED with the diseased tissue. N
a few exceptional eases the blaclIcned
area extended to the surface of the
potato or to cracks of injuries of the
t,,h r,-tf oh.
