irregular in size and shape and never appear as distinct warts or pustules, containing brownish powder They never produce browning of the sur rounding skin resembling decay, nor a pronounced shrinkage of the tubers, and never form large, deep, eroded pits or cankered areas in the tissues.
 If affected potatoes are wet and carefully washed to remove super fuous dirt, another distinct charac- teristic can be observed. When wet, the spots produced by powdery scab are invariably darker colored than those of the common type. Common scab is, as rule, nothing more than a surface ulcer, resulting from the irritation of the growth of the seed parasite in the superficial cells of the tissue. On account of the character of the lesions thus produced the keep ing qualities of the tubers are practi- cally uninjured and the value for food purposes is not materially lessened. It simply makes them unsightly and less easy to prepare for the table.

NOT THE TIME FOR A SMOKE
Old Lady, Filled Up With "car- tridges," Was in Natural Fear
 of an Explosion.

A robust old woman in the noun tains of north Georgia was i'll for the first time in her life and a doctor was sent for. Partly by persuasion and partly by force, the physician induced his patient to swallow some big qui- nine capsules-a simple enough opera tion, which, however, scared the old woman almost to death. She was soon able to sit up and her daughter thought she would give the conva- lestent treat. She took her moth- CTS corncob pipe from the shelf" or mantel, filled it with tobacco, and picking up a live coal between two sticks, started with it toward the bed

In war time sleeping on sentry duty has, justly enough, only one penalty death. Marchand could hope for no mercy, for his negligence might have cost hundreds of lives.
 He had been brought to America in childhood, and had grown up an Amer ican in every sense of the word. His father silk importer, had prospered in the land of his adoption, and two months before, while on a business trip to his native land, had died sud- denly. The boy and his mother had hurried to France to adjust his affairs. Then Mrs. Marchand had remembered some old friends in Nancy, and had gone there for brief visit, while the son settled the Paris business tangle.
 Suddenly. like a bolt from tho blue, war blazed out. Mrs Marchand, shut up in Nancy, could get no news of her son. And Jean, ablaze with new love for the land of his birth, had enlisted as a private soldier
 The tragedy of the affair was that Nancy was not six miles distant. and the mother, waiting there, did not know but that Jean was in Paris.
 Colonel Boileau faced the prisoner.
 "The sentence of this court is that you be shot at dawn" he said.
 The noncommissioned officers took the young man to the guard tent. The court-martial dispersed.' It was eve ming, and the company had been ordered to advance no further till fl received orders.
 The firing squad which had been told off to perform the execution al dawn whispered together. It was a melancholy duty, yet necessity, ii discipline was to be maintained, fol upon the vigilance of her soldiers the safety of the motherland depended. IT his tent Colonel Boileau scanned his war map, together with his aide Jacquevel, the captain who had en deavored most strongly of all the court to find extefuating circum stances.
 When the business of the night wal done Boileau turned to Jacquevel.

TWO DISEASES OF POTATOES
Much Headway by Being Confused ! '.s4- z ,4iYith Common Scab.
(By W. J. MORSE.) )

No doubt the chief reason that powdery scab was not recognized ear Her by the potato growers in the sec tions where 1t is now known to occur is that they failed to distinguish the disease from the ordinary scab which has been common and widely distrib- uted for many years. In comparing the two, 1t may be said in the first place that the lesions produced by the common scab are, on the average, much larger. They are apt to be more

meal Is very high-so high indeed that often the fertilizing constituents in the meal are alone worth as much or more than 1t now costs. When it is remem- bered that from 80 to 90 per cent of this fertilizing value remains in the manure the opportunities for profit that its use offers become even more obvious. To put the case in another way: When one includes in his calcu- lations the enrichment of the land he finds that feeding cottonseed meal to cattle costs him only from 10 to 20 per cent of the market price of the meal.
 In view of these facts, specialists in the department recommend cattle feeders in all parts of the country to secure prices on cottonseed by-prod- ucts and to take advantage of the cheap foods that they provide. No other form of concentrated feed, the specialists say, will prove as profitable as cottonseed meal this year. In the South the feeders have an opportun- ity to get these by-products at lower prices than at any other time during the last ten years. Combined with farm-grown feeds, such as corn silage, they should be able to secure gains very cheaply, and with the present high prices for finished cattle, make good profits. Incidentally it may be said that if such movement tends to strengthen and steady the market for cottonseed by-products, this will in itself be of considerable assistance to cotton growers in the South
