WHAT WE ARE FIGHTING.

The United States is not fighting
the German people said President Will
son in his famous war message to
congress, but Prussianism. What is
this Prussianism that Americans are
now called upon to night? How can it
be said that we are not fighting the
German people, when the whole Ger
man nation is apparently welded to-
sether as one man in this war?
The Forum knows of no better way
to visualize this distinction-the dis
tinction between Prussianism and the
German people than to quote the
words Of an American eve witness who
saw the sack OF Belgium. Hear what
Irwin $. Cobb says OF those early days
ia Belgium:

Seed Potato Treatment

| is good drier for cut seed. Applied to
scab- infected soils at the rate of 500
/ pounds per acre it reduces the scab,
but such heavy applications can not
generally be recommended as profit
able. Preliminary experimental trials
are advised.
How to Disinfect Seed.
/ It Is considered better to treat po-
tatoes before they are cut into seed,
/ especially IL the cut seed is to be very
small. Put into the solution all the
potatoes it will cover and keep the
batch covered by the solution for the
period named under the treatment be-
| ing used.
The fornaTdehyds treatment con-
sists in soaking the potatoes, before
cutting, for two hours in a solution
made by adding pint of Tornado
hyde to 80 gallons of water. The So
luton can be used repeatedly. The
gas treatment is no longer recon-
mended.
The corrosive sublinnate treatment
| Is more effective than formaldehyde,
particularly against Rhizoctonia, or
russell scab, and powdery scab. Cor
rosive sublimate is used at the rate Of
$1,000 for one and one-half to two
hours. Dissolve ounces of the salt
in hot water and dilute to is gallons.
This is q deadly poison. Use with
great care. 1t must be kept in wood.
porcelain or glass vessels, as it at
tacks metal. Seed so treated must not
be used in the household or left where
animals can reach it.
In using the corrosive sublimate dip
lit has been found that the solution
becomes weaker each time it is used.
The degree to which the disinfectant
is taken out of the solution varies
according to the amount of dirt on the
e &~v,
and the kind OF container. For prac-
tical purposes 1t will ne sufficient to
add 1 ounce OF disg8lved corrosive
sublimate to each 30 gallons of So
luton after each batch of potatoes
has been treated. When this has been
done four times, throw away the old
solution and prepare new solution.
To treat large quantities of pota-
toes, set several barrels on "a slightly
elevated platform. Fit plug in a hole
In the bottom of each barrel, fill with
potatoes, cover with solution, let stand
two hours, draw Dissolution, and pour
into another barrel. Increase the num-
Der Of barrels in proportion to the
quantity to be. treated. Another meth
cd is to use large wooden vat or
trough, into which the potatoes in
sacks are lowered by q rope and pull
ley, and later hauled out, drained, and
dried on Slated racks.
Seed potatoes may be treated sew
eraL weeks before planting, provided
they are not reinfected by storing in
old containers or storage bins.
Sprouted potatoes are injured by
treatment but will throw out new
sprouts. In general, however, potatoes
will not be injured by following the
above directions. Many growers be-
lieve termination is improved by

Washington, d. c.. April 30.-Those

Washington, d. c.. April 30.--The
disinfection of seed potatoes by soak
ing in corrosive sublimate or in for
maldehyde is recommended by the
u. s. department Of agriculture as 8
measure that will tend to improve the
termination and lessen the danger OF
scab.
Such treatment is, on the whole,
profitable, but has several limitations
which should be clearly recognized to
prevent disappointment. The object
of disinfecting seed potatoes is to de-
stroy the germs OF scab and other sur
face parasites which might otherwise
be planted with the seed and infect
the new crop. Only surface infections
are reached by this method. It is only
partially effective against deep pits of
common scab. Neither corrosive subli-
mate nor formaldehyde, as ordinarily
used. will destroy silver scurf. Either
one will kill surface infections of
blackleg, but neither will reach the
internal infections common in tubers
from blackleg hills. Neither Fusarium
wilt nor late blight infection in potato
tubers can be reached by any seed
treatment, nor can any of the nom
parasitic diseases of potatoes, such as
thus be prevented. See Farmers Bull
letin 544 for descriptions Of these
troubles.
Select Disease free Seed.
Clearly, therefore, the most ennport-
ant precaution against these diseases
is to select clean, disease-free seed
potatoes from healthy. vigorous plants,
as determined by field inspection dur
ing the growing season and at harvest.
Seed treatment should then be applied
as an additional precaution. 1t will
not be effective, however, If the soil
where the potatoes are to be planted
is already full of disease.
Soil Conditions and Potato Diseases.
Soil conditions have an important
to potato tuber diseases. and
many of these are widely spread
the country, and perhaps
native to some soils. Common scab is
favored by - neutral or slightly aka
line soil, and seldom gives trouble in
acid soils. Tt therefore is increased by
Inning and by fresh stable manure.
wood ashes, and alkaline fertilizers.
such as nitrate of soda and ground
bone, while acid phosphate and sui
phate Of ammonia tend to diminish
scab.
Rhizoctonia occurs in some extent
in nearly all soils, but appears to att
tack potatoes most when the con-

of the potato plant. Bring
the land to an ideal state of filth to
minimize loss from Rhizoctonia.
Powdery scab Is worst on cold, wet.
Or poorly drained soils. Blackleg, on
he other hand, is carried by infected
seed. No potatoes showing deep
crown diseoloration at the stem end
should be planted.
Sulphur tends to prevent common
'cab. 1t is not a substitute for COR
'osive sublimate or formaldehyde, but

THE BOARD OF REGENTS.

Saturday The Forums Bismarck
bureau reported the decision of the
state supreme court that the socalled
de facto members of the board of
regents were also the de jure members.
It assures these five men that they
will continue in office until the expira-
ton of their terms.
The decision clears the skies for the
teaching staff of every state educa-
tional institution. For months they
have been working with the skeleton
of unemployment at their elbows. They
have been forced into the position Of
time-servers. facing the possibility of
being forced to please new employers
while serving their present ones. Tur-
MOL has resulted. The business of
education, which should be the last to
come under the domination of the pro-
fessional politician. has suffered while
the squabble ragged. Almost any deci-
sion would have been an Improvement
over such a condition. but the deci-
sion reached by the court will have the
commentator of every honest, think
ing citizen. 1t is a triumph of good
sense over technicality of the law
1t is clear cut evidence that the high
est tribunal of the state has retained
its sanity.
To the employees it should open a
new era Of efficient service. They can
return to their jobs and render the
service for which they are paid. The
sense Of futility is removed from their
daily task. The people of North Da-
kota can expect from them construc-
tive, enterprising service.

I saw was this: saw wide areas of

penny's worth Of wanton destruction
had been permitted to occur, in which
the ripe pears hung untouched upon

wide areas where scarcely one stone

where the fields were ravaged; where
the male villagers had been shot in

had been left to die in holes. like wild

often read where this soldier or that,
setting down his own private thoughts,
had lamented at having been required
to put his hand to the task of killing

You did not and for very good rea-

SO And it seemed to me then,
and it seems to me now a most
dangerous thing for all the peoples of
the earth, and a most evil thing, that
into the world should come a scheme
contrived and so exactly executed that,
by the flirt of a colonel's thumb, a
thousand men may. at will, be trans

ly soldiers into relentless, ruthless
executioners and incendiaries, and, by
another fiirt of that supreme and
arrogant thumb. be converted back in

That is what America is fighting,
that "flirt of a coloneTs thumb" which
transforms the kindly. industrious
German, as America knows him. into
that fiend incarnate that many Am
orleans saw at his work of butchery of
helpless men, women and children in
Belgium.
Just how horrible that work of
butchery was is only now coming
home to the vast majority of the citi-
zens of the United States. The coun-
try is now being flooded with litera-
ture, however, giving authentic detail
ed accounts of the horrors perpetrated
by Prussianism and it is opening the
eyes of many, hitherto Indifferent. Am
