FUNGUS DISEASES OF TOMATO
Blosson1-End Rot Attacks Fruit Be-
fore II S Mature. Causing 1t to
Drop to Ground.

Blossom-end rot of tomatoes is a
disease caused by a fungus. 1t attacks
the blossom-end of the fruit while the
fruit is green and causes it to rot and
drop off before it is mature. AS soon
as the disease is observed, pull off all
affected fruit and destroy it. After this,
spray thoroughly with bordeaux mix
ture. Bordeaux mixture is made with
one pound of blue stone, one pound of
quick lime and II gallons of water. Dis
solve the blue stone by hanging it in n
cloth bag. in water, over night Stake
the lime separately. then mix the two
thoroughly, and add the IL gallons of
water. Earthen, glass or wood recep-
tacles must be used to dissolve the
blue stone in. 1t will corrode metal.
If fruit is ripened. gather all ripe
fruit before spraying. 1t is neces-
sary to repeat the spray every week
as long as there is any sign of the dis
ease.

PIGS WORK FOR THEMSELVES
Plan to Have Crops Ready for Swine
to Harvest in FaIl-They Will
Save Big Cost of Labor.

Farm labor is yearly becoming more
costly and inefficient. Pigs generally
pay for this labor, so why not let them
do the work themselves. thus saving
the cost and worry of poor help? Plan
TO have crops ready for the pigs to
harvest in the fall. Let them hog
down some of your corn crops; let
them eat the rape, rye and pumpkins
that you plant with your corn. They
win not only save the cost of harvest
ing labor, but they will derive more
benefit from the feeds so consumed

 FLORIDA'S GOVERNOR
Spectacular Parade in Which Every County in State Was Represented
 Preceded Induction Ceremony

Baptist preacher who came to Florida four years ago after be- ing defeated for the lower house of Con- gress in Alabama, was inaugurated gov ernor here today. MT. Catts, who sue leeds Park Trammel. newly elected United States senator, was sworn in by Jeffer- son B. Browne of Key West, new chief justice of the Florida supreme court The inauguration was preceded by a parade of delegates from every county in Florida.
 In his inaugural address the new gov ernor advocated carrying out the state s project to drain the Everglade swamps, pledged himself to statewide prohibition and placing of all schools on an equal footing, with teachers in parochial schools subject to the same examinations re- quired of public school teachers, and urged passage of a law providing for po- lice inspection of parochial schools, con vents and nunneries.
 Governor Catts, who was elected on an dependent-prohibition ticket after a re- count of the primary vote deprived him of the democratic nomination, has an nounced that he is regular democrat and that all appointive offices will go to those who received the nomination in the democratic primary. It has been demo- cratic custom to nominate candidates for many appointive offices, including cir cult judgeships.
 On the ground that he opposes dancing, the governor declined an invitation to at tend the inauguration ball tonight
