to the presence of the causal fungus
in the stable. When the fungus once
gains entrance to the barnyard or
compost heap it remains there for
years, and all the manure taken from
such yard is likely to be infected.
60 BY drainage water, flowing from
infected to unaffected fields.
Means of Control.
There is nothing that can be done
to save field of melons when once
may be avoided by the following pre-
cautions:
/. In infected districts watermelons
should never be planted on land where
Watermelons have been grown within
ten or twelve years, more or less, de-
pending on soil conditions, as expert
ments have shown that the fungus
causing the disease is able to live d
long period in the ground. As a mat
ter of practical experience, it IS usual
ly possible to secure enough fresh
land, so that an adequate supply Of
watermelOns can be grown in any
large district without need of recourse
to old fields.
.. Stable manure which has become
infected by the use of melon hay or
refuse containing melon vines should
never be applied to the watermelon
crop or to land where it Is desired to
plant watermelons later.
3. Fields which have received the
drainage water from infected fields
must be considered and treated as If
infected. This means that the farmer
having two fields. one of which is on
higher ground than the other should
plant the lower field first.
+. As far as possible live stock
should be prevented from passing
from infected to uninfocted fields.
.. Breeding resistant varieties: It
has been demonstrated by the depart
ment of agriculture that varieties Of
watermelons resistant to wilt can be
bred. The strains thus far produced
are not recommended for general
planting, but it will be worth while
for interested localities to have wilt
resistant varieties adapted to their
conditions bred.

Why Called "BIoodhound."

AS regards the name bloodhound,
Count lie COuteulX believes that when
fox hunting in something like its pres
ent form was instituted 1t was found
that the sleuth-hound was not fast
enough for the purpose. and the pres
cnt toNhOund was evolved from various
material, and about this time IT be-
came usual. In speaking OF the old
hound of the country. to call him
bloodhound. meaning the hound OF
pure blood Gas might be said Of
blooded horse) TO distinguish him
from the new hound or foxhound.
There Is only one breed of pure, gen
ulne bloodhouhds, and that Is the Eng
lish.

SORRY PRACTICE OF
SELLING THE CALVES
Cause of Exorbitant Prices for
First-CIass Mich Cows, for
Beef and Milk.

In Argentine there is n law making
1t felony to kill any female of the
cattle species that is under six years
old
Argentine is wiser than we are. The
economic mill grinds. We are now pay
ing prices which may be considered
exo~bitant for first-class mich cows,
for beef and milk. That the killing of
hundreds of calves every year for veal,
and the spaying Of thousands Of heif-
ers and fattening them for the block,
Is responsible in large measure for
the present high prices Of certain food
commodities, there can be no question.
Calves are taken from their mothers
Immediately after they are born on the
pretext that n cows milk Is too valu-
able for cows calf. These calves,
In case it happens to be in the vicinity
OF large city, are often sold by calf
buyers to people in the lower districts
for bob-vea. Those that are not sold
to calf buyers are raised on skim
milk and If they do not die of scours
they become runty and badly stunted
in their growth.
AS n general thing this practice Is
to be condemned The farmer and
iairyman are saving at the spigot and
wasting at the bung. They must now
pay S75 for good COW and have none
to sell.
Every time we sit down to the
dinner table we are paying the price
for this short-sighted policy. One
thing Is sure, If we kill all our calves
1t Is only question of time until
we will have no cows.

(From the United States Department of
Agricultural
A serious disease of watermelone,
known as the wilt, has for many yeavr
been prevalent in the southern states
and has now extended westward to the
Pacific coast, having been reported
from oklahoma, Iowa, Indiana, Mis-
souri,, Arizona, Texas, California and
Oregon. In many sections the disease
is serious handicap to the growing
of melons on u large scale, not only
also by preventing the successful cul-
ture of melons upon the same field
again in succeeding years.
Cause and Symptoms.
Watermelon wilt is caused by fun
gus which lives in the soil and enters
the roots plugging up the water-car-
rying vessels and preventing the rise
of moisture, thus causing the willing
and death of the plant. The leaves
Of affected plants first droop, then
rapidly wilt and soon die, the runner
dying with them. Upon cutting the
main tap root across the surface of
the ground it will be found to pre-
sent a yellow color in the wood max
ing a distinct contrast with the white
color of the healthy plant. This yell
lowing, together with the wilted APP
pearanee of the vine, makes the iden-
tiiCation of the disease easily pos
Sible, and the further fact that field
once infected shows the same trouble
in succeeding years in the same or an
extended area is an additional recog-
milton mark. All commercial varieties
of melons appear to be very suscep-
tible to the disease.
Means of Dissemination.
The disease is spread in number
Of different ways: CD BY particles
of earth carrying spores of the fun
gus. which are easily scattered by the
wind, by implements used in cultivat-
ing and by the feet of men and work
animals or stray stock passing from
one field to another. (2) BY infected
stable manure. The fungus r. IS in
the dead vines, and the practice Of
cutting hay from watermelon fields re-
suits in some watermelon vines being
harvested with the hay, and this leads

A dealer in wearing apparel, noticing
That his stout customers and his very
