TREAT SEED POTATOES

The Prevalence of Scab on the High
Priced Seed Potatoes This Year
Makes 1t Imperative That They Be
Treated With Chemicals Before
Planting.
National Crop Improvement ssrVIcsl
While the operation Of treating Is
comparatively simply, close attention
must be given to the direction and de-
tails followed absolutely. Your care
lessness may mean ruin of the po-
tatoes or danger to children or stock.
Simply-Be Careful.
According to your conditions and
equipment, the seed potatoes may be
treated in crates, loose in barrels or
in sacks Treatment must be done be-
fore the potatoes are cut or sprouted.
The cOmmonest method is to mix
one pint of formaldehyde (be sure it
is full strength) with thirty gallons
of water. Soak the seed stock in this
solution for two hours, just before you
are ready to start cutting. This solu-
tion may be reused two or three
times, if no time is lost between
batches One of the easiest ways is to
place the solution in a barrel and
place a sackful cf potatoes in 1t at a
time.
Corrosive sublimate is an excellent
chemical to use, and will kill rhizic'
tOnia as we'll as scab, but 1t is dead
ly poison and must be kept where chill
dren or stock will not get it. All yes
sells used with this material should be
carefully cleaned afterwards. If you
prefer this, use four ounces of cor
rosive sublimate to thirty gallons oi
water, and soak the potatoes for ar
hour and a half. The powdered chemi
cal should first be dissolved in hOt
water and then added to the mair
solution. Do not use metal vessels. AT
ter treating, the potatoes should be
promptly washed in clean water unit
all traces of the solution are gone, anC
they they should be carefully dried
! the sooner the better.
It only takes a little time and verl
little money to treat all your seed pO
| tatoes by either method, and it pay:
big in larger yields of better potatoes
| free from disease.

KEEP YOUNG

People with bad backs and weak
kidneys are apt to feel old at sixty.
Many old folks say Doan's Kidney
Pills help them keep young. Here's
an Ortonville case:
T. harrington, Ortonville, Mimi,
says: Il had lots of trouble with my
back and kidneys and there were
such severe pains in my back at night
that I couldn't sleep we'll. 1 suffered
for hours. The doctor said l had a
general breakdown, owing to old age.
Doan's Kidney Pills soon had me
feeling we'll and quite like myself
again. They toned up my system
and since then, l have been able to
get my right rest. If l feel the least
sign of pain in my back now, take
a few doses of DOans Kidney Pills
and am soon all right again"

DR.. Christianson Visits Alberta

DR.. Christianson of Starbuck, ad-
dressed nearly every person in AL
berta and many from the surround
ing country in the school auditorium
last Friday evening. The doctors
lecture was all solid facts in regard
to the medical profession. The dOct-
or clearly brought forth the fact that
some time should be given to medi-
cal study in all schools in the state
and union as we'll. The large and
deeply interested audience heard one
of the best lectures uttered in AL
berta for some time.
A very nice and we'll arranged
program was also rendered by some
of the first and fourth grade pupils.
That was certainly credit to the
children, teachers, parents and to
the far famed Consolidated school of
Alberta. The piano duet by the
Misses Hazel and Irene Eystad was a
master piece of home talent. "The
Red Show Play by Elenore Eystad,
Palma Norby, Hillman Maanum, H.
Busch Marion Fougeron, George
Hendrickson and Florence Hamilton,
all fourth grade scholars, was eX-
ceedingly we'll acted and showed
careful study and training by the
teachers and those taking part. The
song by Lillian Eystad, 8 years old,
was rare musical treat as the selec-
tion was given by her as accurately
as could be expected from a high
school pupil.
Last Friday evening was recorded
as one Of Alberta's big nights"

The last big entertainment of the
season will be given at the school
auditorium next Friday evening,
May II, about o'clock. This will
be carnival, the first of it's kind in
the history of the school. This is
going to be one laugh from begin

miss it. Admission to grounds will
be sc and 1Oc. Everybody is in
Vited to come to this last community
center affair for this season, and

the many attractions are the vaude-
vile continuous performance, the
fortune teller, the minstrel show,
etc.
Miss Ada Decker has returned
from her trip to Indiana. 1t seems
very good to have this hard working
member of the faculty back in the

two teachers work we'll. Among the
credits belonging to her is the fact
that the teachers boarding club is
proving remarkable success under
her management. This is especially
significant now when all the neces-
stiles of life are so high.
Prof. GrafeIman gave an illustrat-
ed lecture on THE Children in other
Lands" last week. Every child in
the school found this interesting and
helpful in other school work. The
slides were secured from the Univers-

like the motion picture films ought
to be gotten.
On Friday, June l, the first senior
class OF the new Alberta high school
Will be graduated. This will be done
by the most remarkable exercises

peculiar satisfaction that the efforts
