MIR. McMullen Will not be Candidate

Mr.. Hugh A. McMullen, President
State Comptroller has announced his
purpose not to be a candidate for the
Office of Comptroller at the coming
election in November.
When asked his reason for this con-
clusion Mr. McMullen stated "well.
my judgment is that man makes
mistake to go into public office, or stay
in it, unless he clearly sees a chance to
do some work of real service. There is
honor and satisfaction in serving under
these circumstances. | stated this in
nv primary and election contests, and
reason to think that the Comptroller's
office was susceptible of the many i'm
movements which have taken place in
business in the last generation, which
nv business training would enable me
TO introduce. | found it so and have
! instituted many customs, rules and
practices to bring its conduct up to
modern business methods. With an
arrangement completed, and the work
now in process, for the Improvement
of the bookkeeping, the work of the
Comptroller's office will be at the high
est point of efficiency. With this, my
/ special, work done am persuaded that
even were my election assured, the
next two years would consist of merely
routine service"

Treatment of Sc ed Potatoes.

This season when the price of po-
tatoes is abnormally high and the pros
poets good for a remunerative price
next tail, extra care should be taken in
regard to the seed to be planted. 1t
will be nearly impossible for all planters
to get the best quality seed, but there
are a few precautions that should be
practiced generally
Select seed that is as nearly free
from disease as possible. Do not plant
any potatoes that show a deep brown
discoiora ton at the stem end. Do not
plant potatoes in soil that has produced
diseased potatoes in the past. Common
scab of potatoes is Increased by an
alkaline soil, so do not make heavy
application of lime, fresh stable manure,
or alkaline fertilizer directly befole
planting time:
In all cases the seed should be disin-
fected before planting. The cost will
vestment as the treatment tends to
improve termination and lessons the
danger OF scab. There are two meth
DDS commonly used, either one is quite
efficatious.
The formaldehyde treatment is per-
haps the one most commonly used. 1t
consists in soaking two hours the uncut
seed in solution made by adding one
pint of formaline "a 40 per cent solution
Of form aldehyde) to thirty gallons OF
water. This solution does not weaken
with use and can be used with several
| lots of seed.
The corrosive sublimate treatment is
| more effective than formaldehyde, par
| ticularly for powdery scab and Rhzoc
| tonia. Dissolve four ounces of the subj
mate in hot water and dilute to thirty
! gallons, leaving the uncut potatoes in
| the solution from one and one half to
two hours. Use with great care as il
is very poisonous. Do not leave the
treated seed where animals can reach it
This solution becomes weaker every
time it is used. To owe come this adlo e
ounce Of the dissolved sublimate to each
thirty gallons of water after each lot
potatoes has been removed from the
solution This can be done four or five
times, then it will be advisable to throw
the solution away and make new So
luton.
The treated seed can be kept for sew
eral weeks before planting if the pota-
toes are not placed in infected sacks OF
storage places.
Everything practicable should be
done at this time to insure good crop,
both for home use and for market
The surest way to have potatoes fol
} home use next fall is to grow them
L. yourself.

To Consider Compulsory Training
For Boys of Ia.

That there should be compulsory
military training of boys more than IA
years of age in the public schools is the
recommendation that will be made by
the commission recently appointed by
Governor Harrington to study that
subject. The commission met Friday
last in the Governor city office. The
bill authorizing the Governor to name
such commission was passed by the
last legislature.
1t was determined to have bill pro-
viding the compulsory training offered
and, if possible, passed by the Legls
lature at the special session soon to be
called.
Inquiries will be sent to New 4orl
and Massachusetts to ascertain Wha1
their estimates of the cost of such
training has been. Both States have
laws on the subject.
! AS to the training Of boys outside the
schools the question may be taken up b1
, Congress, 50 it was said by Genera
Wartield, member of the commission

Advance Information
as to Presidents Note

When Secretary Tumulty was in
formed of the statements of Mr.. Wood
before the rules committee he ex-
pressed himself freely in resentment OF
the use of his name under such cir
cumstances, winding up by issuing the
following statement:
Il am very glad to say publicly that
did not know of the existence of the
Presidents note on peace until the
newspapers were informed. Very fire.
quently the President, who knows that
am bombarded by newspaper men and
others for information, saves me en-
barrassment by keeping matters abso-
lutely secret. In fact. / have often sug-
gested that this be done. ] have not
been at the Biltmore in a year. never
talked about peace with Mr.. Baruch
before or after the peace note was
sent. and never lunched with him in my
life. l have met him as l have a great
many good friends from time to time
in hotels, at the theater and elsewhere
A Presidents secretary meets great
many people every day, and it is very
easy for some one to circulate rumors
based as MIR. Wood says solely on
hearsay.'
4 think Mr.. Wood owes me a public
apology for mentioning my name at all
merely on hearsay and rumor"
