ing season of the year, they are dark
er sometimes almost black. Seed
treatment will not kill this disease.
The disease being inside the tuber.
Potatoes showing this disease should
never be planted. Infected potatoes
not only carry the disease to next
years crop but also infect the soil for
future seasons. This is perhaps our
most serious potato disease on &C
count of the difficulty in controlling
| it.
RHIZOCTONIA This is a common
fungus disease which forms tiny, hard
dark specks or germs in colony
groups on the outside of the skin of
the tuber. Most people think that
these are black dirt specks, but such
is not the case. They stick very firm
ly to the skin of the potato and at
tacks the roots underground This
kills the stalk in the same manner as
Fusarium, but can easily be detect
cd on pulling up the stalk, as the dis
ease affects the outside of the under
ground stem and not the inside as
does Fusarium. Usually if this dis
ease is developed in the early growing
stage it will entirely cut off the life of
the stem underground, causing large
group of small, inferior tubers to
form above the infection. Sometimes
even to the extent of an aerial growth
on the vines above the ground. If
these dark specks are large upon the
surface there is no known remedy
which can be entirely depended upon
to kill them; however, if only small
specks appear in very small numbers
they can be killed by the Corrosive
Sublimate treatment The ground
when once inoculated with these
germs is unsafe as potato ground for
at least three to five years.
Methods of Control.
Professor DIN, formerly of this
state but now Agricultural Commits
sioner of the D. & R. G. Railroad, gives
the following eight rules of control.
1. On clean ground, plant clean
seed this year to grow, in a seed plot
seed stock for the general field next
year.
2. Select seed potatoes in the field
before harvesting from hills with heal
thy vines which give good normal
number of potatoes of uniform size
true to type and free from disease.
8. When forced to use bin selected
seed, make careful selection, discard
ing all potatoes which you find dis
eased You must cut slices not over
one-eighth inch thick from stem enc
Of potato, in search for wilt disease
which works inside the potato.
f. Get disease free seed If you
find you have none of your own anG
you cannot find it yourself. write tt

your state experiment station to help
locate seed stock free from disease,
B. Treat selected seed as your state
experiment shall recommend.
6. Rotation of crops must be fol-
lowed and volunteer potatoes not al
lowed to grow and carry over the dis
ease.
Z. Use Glover, alfalfa or pea land
for potatoes when possible.
8. United persistent endeavor along
these lines will enable us to stamp out
these potato troubles as effectively
as hog growers of given district con-
troll hog cholera.

POTATO SEED CUTTER
invention of Idaho Man is Useful ami

Mr.. w. T. Matthews, of Pocatello,
seed cutter which for light, mex
pensive machine seems to be the best
we have ever seen or heard Of. The
cutting principle is like the foot power
machine, but this make is hand power
1t stands a sufficient height to enable
the hanging of sack beneath the cut

of knives and passed through with a
hand lever which makes tolerably rap
id work The expense is $500 and
anyone desiring one either write di-
rectly to Mr.. W. T. Matthews, Pocatel-

Seed Treatment.
Now that the planting season is up
on us we desire to issue some instruc-
tons on the matter of the control OF
various diseases. Any locality de-
string full instruction on different dis
eases and their treatment, by appli-

for a meeting can secure an address
on the matter in full. In case this is
done notify your members to bring
samples of the potatoes they expect to
use for seed In this way practical
illustrations can be given, and the
treatment of the most common dis
eases explained.
List of Common Diseases.
COMMON SCAB: This is perhaps
the most common disease in this state
and is we'll known to every potato
grower Seed treatment will kill the
spores that cause Common Scab. II
is not enough that the seed be treated
for this disease will live over in the
GROUND for several years.
FUSARIUM WILT. To detect this in
seed stock, cut off the stem end OF
the potato If there are dark spots
running through the fibres in snor'
distance from the skin, this is sure
symptom of this disease. Never, un-
der any circumstances, plant such
seed stock This is fungus disease
which grows on the inside of the tubeI
and is detected by the dark rings un-
derneath the surface. This disease
does not manifest itself on the surface
of the potato, therefore, only by cut
ting can it's presence be shown. This
disease is most easily detected on the
growing crop. At different stages OF
the growth the top apparently turns
yellow and dies The affection is
inside the water-vein OF the stalk
from whence it has spread from the
stem end of the tuber. In the grow.

Treatment.

All seed potatoes should be soaked
in a solution of mercury bichloride
corrosive sublimate) four ounces in
thirty gallons of water for one and
one-half hours. Formalin treatment
will not kill Rhisoctonia as completely
should be placed in a wooden barrel
or tank. 1t corrodes metal. It should
be poured out and made up fresh after
it has been used to disinfect four lots
of potatoes. 1t is poison to eat but
not to the touch. Treated potatoes
should not be eaten or fed After the
potatoes have been treated they
should be stored in new sacks which
have been similarly disinfected in the
solution. Described and recommend
ed by DR.. Geo. R. Hill, plant patholo
gist Utah experiment station.
The corrosive sublimate or mercury
treatment is also recommended and
used by the Sweet Brothers of Denver,
and is recommended by j. G. Jacob
son, of idaho Falls.
Recommendations.
Organization While this central has
been too much preoccupied in trying
to get returns, prices, etc., it has neg
lected one very important feature of
potato organization. If potato or
SANITATION in a community is to do its
most effective work it should extend
to other activities than merely the
loading out of potatoes for market
Every local organization should make
seed selection and administer treat
ment under the strict supervision of
its manager or a committee appoint
ed for that purpose. One set of ma
chinery and one crew of workers
could treat all the seed for any of our
potato locals at much less expense
than the same is being conducted now,
and much more effective. It may be
| too late to take this matter up this
season but I hope steps will be taken
to carry 1t into effect for next year
Every man in every community
should treat every potato he plants
| every year.

 No agreement was reached. but many senators believed that in some way the work of grinding out the appropriation bills would be undertaken within the next day or two.
 Despite the uncertainty of the situa ton, both senate and house leaders ex- pressed confidence that there would be no extra session of congress.
