Experiments In a..
Plant Pathology

For the past three years the De-
partment Of Plant Pathology has
carried on extensive Investigations
on the sweet potato diseases. Much
has already been accomplished IN
establishing the exact causes OF the
different troubles and in determin-
ing the most effective method OF
IL eatment. Further work is now
in progress on the "pox" or "pit'
disease, a trouble which has not
been cleared up. In last years
work it was found that the apph-
cation of lime to soils greatly
| favors "pox" and indicated GER
tain similarity to the scab OF the
white potato. The Department is
now carrying on experiments IN
the greenhouse to determine wheth'
or not "pox' the of sweet potato
is the same as the scab of the white
potato. Should their be establish
ed, remedy for "pox' could per
haps be readily found. Greenhouse
experiments are also being carriee
out to determine how long sweet
potato seed can be treated with
corrosive sublimate without injury

The Swedes Settled Chris
tinaham-Now Wilmington

In the spring of 1888, just seven
years after the Dutch vessels had
sailed into Delaware Bay, two
others flying the flag Of Sweden
cast anchor in branch OF the Del
aware. The little band of settlers
was commanded by Peter Minuit,
who had once been with the West
India Company. The leader, there
fore, knew something Of the coun-
try and had a clear idea of where
he wished to start the colony. Some
miles above the Hoornekill, Min
uuas Creek (now our Christiana)
emptied into the Delaware. Two
and a half miles from it's mouth, a
point Of rocks jutted out into the
stream and made a kind Of natural
wharf. 1t was upon this point that
the Swedish settlers landed. Be-
fore many days had passed the
newcomers were visited by an
Indian chief named Mattahoon and
some of his braves, who solemnly
told Minuit that the land belong
ed to them. Minuit asked to buy
it, and the Sachem agreed to sell
for copper kettle and few small
articles.
In short time a fort had been
built. Reorus Torkillus, a clergy
man brought from Sweden had
held services in it, and prayed for
the welfare of Christinaham, the
name of the settlement. The fort
itself was called Christina, and the
name of the creek, changed from
Minquas to Christina, in honor o1
the young queen Of Sweden. Tor
killus had a plot of ground fenced
off as a burying ground, which
later became the site of the Ole
Swedes Church. Thus the Swede
established themselves upon th'

Relief in tuberculosis

In this effort much depends on the
remedial value of fresh air--night and
day-and rest and good food. The
patient should -efrain from work that
overtaxes, and all sanitary precautions
should be taken. These cOmmonsense
measures are approved by doctors
