plenty of moisture and high tempera-
ture cause the most rapid progress of
this disease.
The common source of infection in
newly planted fields is through the use
of tubers, or seed, that already contain
the fungus. Another common source of
trouble is from planting the potatoes in
fields that have previously shown the
disease within two or three years.
This disease is internal and cannot
be controlled. by disinfecting the seed
or spraying the vines. 1t may be dis

familiar with the potato scab. The
rhizoctonia is shown by the tiny black
masses which stick firmly to the skin

best to discard the potato.

gallons of water is the proper strength.
After the potatoes have been treated
they should be placed in new sacks, or
sterilized sacks. Never place them in
old sacks unless they have been ster-

The Potato sssd P1ot
Every farmer should grow his own
potato seed. He should raise it O. .
special plot Of ground to which hs can
give more attention than to his potato
field. In his seed plot he should plant
only very carefully selected seed and
these should be selected, not from the
cellar, but in the field from the vines

form potatoes, true to type and free
from disease. All potatoes for the seed
plot should be treated the sane -
those for the field, but with the utmost
care. Tho seed plot should be watched
very carefully during the summer, and
all plants which show signs Of disease
should be dug up and burned to pre-
vent the others from becoming infected.
It is good business TO have . sssi

PIPES CLIMB ...s..,
 TO GLORY

Walter Pipp, the first baseman of the Yankees, has travelled a wonder ing path, with many downs as well as ups. in his climb to. diamond glory. It was four years ago today that Pipp was sold to Detroit by Kalamazoo and got his first chance to shine in the rnajors-an opportunity which he didn't realize on. Walter was born in Grand Rapids and reared-to height of two inches over six feet-in Michi- gan. He had played semi-pro ball in Hastings and college ball at George town University before he became a regular feller in Kalamazoo. South Michigan League. He waS still in his teens when the Celery City manage ment sold him to Hugh Jennings. Pipp was retained by Detroit until, July, 1913, when he was turned over to -ProvidenceI He remained with the Saints less than a month, and finished the season with Scranton. He was re- called to Detroit at the close of the New York State League season, but again he failed to qualify as a Striped Cat, and early in 1914 was optionally released to Rochester. In the Inter national Pipp played a fine game at first and batted .312, and Jennings re- called him in August. Early last year he was sold to the Yankees at the waiver price, and since then he has been the regular first sacker of the Dorovan outfit

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1S8O-Mike Schreck, German Amer ican heavyweight, born in Cincinnati. Mike started out to win fame and for tune in the ring when he was about 20, and he was going along nicely when Jim Corbett said that Schreck was one of the greatest marvels he had ever seen. Of course, that queer ed Mike, because when "Gentleman Jim" picks fellow to win the said fellow might just as well throw away his ring togs and get a job driving dray. Mike was first heard of in the middleweight division, and he gained decisions over such good men as Hugo Kelly and Tommy Burns in 1902. Later he was defeated by Kelly, Jack O'Brien and Jack (Twin) Sullivan. In 1905 he knocked out George Gardner and Dave Barry at Salt Lake, but was stopped by Al Kaufman in Frisco in 1907. He retired for a time, but in 1911 he was matched to fight Carl Morris in Sapulpa, Okla., and was knocked out by the engineer. Mike fought a few more bouts with second-l raters after that, but didn't show much. The deadly hoodoo of Jim Corbett's praise was "2 hutch" for the Cincinnati Teuton.

According to Hoyle"

The first great authority on card games, Edmund Hoyle, died in Lon- don 147 years ago today, Aug. 29, 1769. He was born in 1872, and came within three years of living to the century mark. Hoyle's peculiar genius won recognition in his lifetime, and the phrase, According to Hoyle," was already in general use at the time of his death. His books on games were best sellers, and Hoyle realized more money from their sale than usually fell to the lot of authors in that period His treatise on whist, first published in, 1743, ran through five editions in one year, and Hoyle re- ceived about $5,0O0 from the publish CT. Hoyle has been called the inven- tor of whist, but this is an error, al- though he was the first to introduce the game to the public in a scientific manner. For time Hoyle held a public office in Ireland which paid him $3,00O a year, although his duties required but small part of his time. Hoyle also gave instructions in whist to the nobility and gentry, his charge being five dollars per lesson.
