potatoes" declares DIR. q. ii. Coons.
plant pathologist at III. A. G.
'In the spring of 1917 many tubers
grown during the drought of 1916 pro-
duced a. few little tubers from the
seed piece, but no sprouts at all.
Whole fields showed this phenomenon.
No one has as yet determined the un-
DERIVING cause of this behavior by the
potato, but the lesson is clear-the
seed stock should come from fields
and hills that are above suspicion"
Quite lot of mosaic" Is also be-
ing reported from some sections. The
most effective remedy for this dis
ease and for others. according to the
college, is to set aside Il quarter acre
or So for the production of seed POI
tatoes and To pull and remove from
this plot during the growing season all
plants that show signs of Infection or
other troubles. Potatoes from such a
plot, provided they are of the right
type and quality, are likely to make
good seed because OF their freedom
from disease.

WILL TRAIN FARMERETTES
M. A. C. Plans Courses in Dairying and
Poultry for Young Women.

East Lansing. Mich.-College courses
In agriculture, which by sort of I'M
written law have In the past been al
ways more or less closed to the femi-
nine SEX will be opened to women this
fall by NJ. A. G. The first intimation of
the proposed innovation was afforded
few days ago in the recently issued col
lege catalogue, In which this statement
Is found:
"Young women enrolling in the de-
partment of home economics will be
permitted, II they so desire, to substi
tute poultry and dairying for certain of
what has heretofore been required
work.
1T has been amply demonstrated
that both these pursuits can be follow
ed with pleasure and profit by women.
Women trained in these callings can be
of much service to the nation in our
effort to Increase the production OF
food"
The opening of the broad field of az
riculture to womenfoik, who In Europe
are reported to have demonstrated
wonderfully their adaptibiity to the
rural life, is expected to afford Michi-
gan within few years a class of
acknowledgements farmerettes.

HAVE BARBERRY ON THE RUN
Almost 10000 Bushes Pulled Up Since
Drive Commenced.

East Lansing, Mich.-Heavy casual
ties have been inflicted upon the high
barberry bush since plant Psychologists
OF the college began their drive against
this shrub some weeks ago. In the
month that the barberry hunters have
been in the field they have secured the
destruction I'm Michigan of 27,S20
bushes--a record made possible by the
hearty cooperation Of the public. In
only n comparatively few instances
was opposition encountered.
"The most striking thing about the
work" declared Mr. Heath. who was
one of the barberry scouts. "was the
fact that almost all the bushes de-
stroyed were covered with rust--indi-
eating clearly the connection between
the barberry and the spread of black
rust Of wheat"
The antibarberry work now In prog
ress was undertaken by the college at
the behest Of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. for according
to the plant Psychologists black rust
of wheat can be stamped out II the
high-bush barberry Is destroyed. The
spores of the rust live over the winter
on the barberry, and without this me-
dunn to subsist upon would die be-
fore spring.

CONTROL OF LETTUCE ROT
Find Formadehyde Checks Blight of
Heads at Bay Port.

East Lansing. Mich.-A treatment
for soft rot of lettuce. disease which
annually Is the cause of much loss to
Michigan's truck growers, has been
hit upon by Ezra NJ. Levin of the ex-
pertinent station of the college.
"This soft rot of lettuce, which Is
ascribed to an organism called Bac-
terium yiridilividuni, starts first Mt the
tips of the leaves" declares Mr.. Lee
vim. "These areas shrivel and curl
and are marked off from the healthy
tissue by II definite line. With the
inner leaves the rot progresses very
deeply into the head, turning their
tender leaves into gluey slime.
Eventually the whole head rots, max
ing the growing of head lettuce In
some seasons very precarious. Losses
of 30 per cent In the field are not I'M
common.
remarkable control of the disease
can be obtained by spraying diseased
plants with fOrmaldehyde, one pint to
30 gallons of water. In tests in 1916
at Bay Port the disease was checked
by the treatment in fields which were
about to be given up as total loss.
In 1917 spraying with formaldehyde
also completely checked the trouble.
In an adjoining field, the owner, see
ing the success of the formaldehyde
treatment, sprayed "A portion of his
field. In the sprayed portion the dis
ease was checked, while in the I'M
sprayed field the crop showed Il high
percentage of rOtting."

Action Against Rats.

1t frequently happens that losses Of
young chickens attributed to the depre-
dations of hawks and to other causes
are due to rats. There is no more
destructive pest about the poultry yard
than these. Coming like the thief in
the night, and usually leaving no Wis.,
ible marks of their ravages, they es-
cape, in large measure, the relentless
hunting down that they deserve. Not
only are they destructive to young
chickens, but they prey upon the egg
supply throughout the year.
The United States department of ag-
riculture points out that anyone, by
care and industry, may free his own
premises of these rodents but that he
is helpless to prevent an early recur-
renee of the trouble unless he can Sc
cure the active cooperation of his
neighbors. The department urges,
therefore, that wherever possible the
destruction of these pests be q COM
munity undertaking.
The same effort, 1t is pointed out,
that is made by individuals working
independently, If organized on a COM
munity basis will be less costly and
more effective. The department has
worked out and tested definite plans
for the destruction of rats, in CON-
mon with other rodents, and informa-
ton concerning the matter can be had
by writing the department.

would increase many fold in little
while.
That is one big phase Of the dog
question-this fact that the presence
of too many dogs prevents the general
raising Of animals whose flesh and
wool are both seriously needed for
our armies overseas. But 1t is phase
of 1t that does not necessarily come
into consideration at all. OF course
your dog Is not sheep-killing dog.
Nobody's dog ever was a sheep-killing
dog until, suddenly, some mans
sheep were slaughtered and that dog
was found to have blood on his chaps
and wool in his teeth.
The United States department OF
agriculture Is not an enemy to the
dog 1t recognizes certain definite
uses for that animal, but 1t realizes
that the country could get on mighty
well with much fewer dogs than 1t
has, and that both the actual and po-
tential meat supply of the country
would be greatly increased thereby.
1t has recently sent out several APP
peals on that point. If you have
dog that serves genuinely useful
purpose, keep him. He is good citi-
zen. But 10 help in the worlds sal
walton, get rid Of the useless dog!

Eggs Before Candle.

The u. S. department Of agriculture
issues the following statement as to
how good eggs should look before the
candle:
A good fresh egg should have
small air space. The yolk should not
be very plain. There should be no
black spots or rings. Sometimes the
eggshell will have fine cracks in It.
This is commonly known as "check"
egg, and should not be shipped with
first-quality eggs. as 1t rots very
quickly.
Blood rings are partially incubated
eggs and show distinct ring Of blood
on the yolk. They are cassed as I'M
fit for food and should be rejected.
Cause: A fertile egg in which the
development Of the germ has proceed
ed until blood has formed but the en-
bryo has subsequently died. Ring for
nation is not present while the en-
bryo is alive, although blood spots or
veins may show.
Moldy eggs generally have cracked
shells and show black spots before
the candle. They are unfit for food.
Cause: Field nests or wet nests.
Holding eggs in damp places, or de-
stroying shell mucus by washing, or
allowing eggs to become wet, thereby
enabling mold spores to enter the
pores of the shell and grow inside the
shell. Mold can also enter through
cracks In the shell

HOW DOG LOVERS CAN AID.

The dog rightfully holds a
strong place in the minds and
affections of men.
The owner of a good dog finds
in him a most faithful friend.
But 1t sometimes happens that
the dog most highly esteemed is
also one that kills and worries
the most sheep and is the most
cunning in Obscuring the evil
dences Of his guilt.
A well-bred dogs habit Of ~
ing innOcently asleep In the
front yard during daytime is no
proof that the same dog does
not kill sheep at night.
Because Of the economic loss
occasioned by sheep-killlng dogs.
and because such dogs bring
the whole Of their kind into bad
repute. the true admirers and
friends of this animal should
help to further any steps likely
to result In the Limitation of the
activity of these discredlting
members Of noble race.
One Of the most practicable
methods of accomplishing this
result seems to be to place upon
dogs such a tax as will reduce
the number of superfluous ones
and result In fewer being kept
by persons who cannot or will
not give them the attention nee
essary to prevent the formation
of habits and associations that
lead to sheep killing.

Milk as a Food.

Economy in the diet does not always
depend upon limiting the use Of GER
tain foods, but 1t Is sometimes ques-
ton of actually increasing the use of
foods which furnish nutritive material
at relatively low cost. Milk belongs
to the latter class, and the housewife
would do well to study its food value
and decide whether her family Is using
as much as 1t should. The average
person In this country uses only
little more than half pint Of milk
daily, and this quantity can very prof
itably be increased when safe milk Is
available.
Many people think of milk only as
beverage, but If they understood that
1t Is In reality a nourishing food they
would increase their daily allowance.
We eat foods for two main reasons:
First. to renew body wastes and pro-
mote growth by forming new tissues
and fluids; and, second, to supply en-
ergy for carrying on body functions.
Milk contains the bodybuilding mate
rails (protein and mineral substances.
such as lime and phosphorus), and
also supplies energy.
The following table, complied by
specialists Of the department of agri-
culture, shows the quantities Of vari-
Gus foods needed to supply as much
protein or energy as one quart Of
milk:

HENS THAT HELP ENEMY.

Every hen that does not lay
except for a little while in the
spring consumes more than she
produces.
Such hen not only does
nothing toward winning the
war, but actually aids the en-
envy.
In times of peace and plenty
the Stacker hen might be toler-
ated, but she must be handled
ruthlessly now.
Go over your flock carefully
and continuously. Eliminate
until you have got rid of all ex-
cept the good egg producers.

reports hat the collections last week
in Salem amounted to $l6s0.s6. The
quota assigned to the city of Salem for
