Cooperative Potatoes Investigations
Outline OF the Work Now Being Conducted bv tho 1nted
States OF Agriculture and the Maine Agricultural
Experiment Station.

work are made jointly, some projects
pelns carried on in cooperation and
some independently but in such a way
as TO eliminate as far as possible any
unnecessary duplication OF work. one
OF the Station Psychologists is detailed
at the Government laboratory for the
summer where he is engaged on CO.
operative problems. The Station pro-
WOES on Aroostook Farm land and
other facilities necessary to supple
ment the laboratory work on potato
diseases.
In midsummer 1916 a so called new
o1sease OF potatoes made its appear
ance IN Aroostook and in. other parts
OF the State. The fact soon developed
that this trouble was associated with
a lack Of potash in or at ieas, an un-
balanced condition of the fertilizer
used. Immediate and valuable aid in
determining the cause of this condition
was obtained from the soil fertility ex-
perts of the Bureau of Plant Industry
Not only that but they were willing to
take mold OF the problem in earnest
last season and spend considerable
time and money upon it--a thing the
Station was not in position to do with
out curtailment Of other important
work already under way. Also through
the assistance and cooperation of the
soil experts a Typographical and soil
survey map of AroostOol Farm Is be-
ing prepared on Il large scale. 1t is
hoped that this will eventually lead to
the installation of tile drainage
demonstration at the farm.
With the present high prices of the.
common fungicides. more particularly
copper sulphate, it is important to
know whether cheaper. substitute
sprays or a modified bordeaux mixture
or a similar spray carrying less copper
sulphate than is commonly used, can be
employed with success. For two years
the Bureau of Chemistry and the Blu
reau Of Plant Industry have been CO.
opera ting with the Station in carrying,
out experiments bearing on this point.
These experiments We're located on an
adjoining farm in 1916. but were on
Aroostook Farm in 1917 and will be
continued there in 1918.
Another important line of work was
conducted by the Insecticide and
tunglclde Board at -ArOostook Farm
last season. There are many pro-
pnetary compounds on the market
which are sold as potato fungicidcs and
Insecticides. a chemical examination
determines whether their composition
IS as claimed. 1t does not show con-
clusively whether the claims relative to
lhe efficiency of certain compound a.
an insecticide or fungicide are true or
false. Only field test will show this,
and the Board tested numerous nro-
prietary spray materials in this way at
Aroostook Farm last season. This
differed from the cooperative investi-
cations in that the Station simply
furnished field laboratory. as It were.
and had no share in or right to pub
lish the data. The Board, however, Is
to use it where necessary as basis Of
prosecution.

What the Imperial German govern.
ment offered the farmers of America
IN it's ruthless submarine warfare was
not the loss of profits, but slavery to
the saber.rattler of Potsdam. He pur-
posed to make us slaves by murder
ing the people who took our products
20 market. BY all the laws of civil.
tied warfare, commerce under a neu.
trail flag was free from any hindrance
except the legal interference justified
by war. But the Germans not only
stopped merchant vessels, they sank
them. Sank them without warning,
without trace--the most devilish
thing war has seen since the savages
scalped our ancestors and threw
screaming babies into the flames of
burning cabins.
The German plan OF sinking mer.
chant vessels without trace is based
on the murderers maxim that dead
men tell no tales" 1t was exc
cuted by the massacre of men, wom'
en- and children, who, having com
mitted themselves to small boats in
tho open sea ullel theli SHlpS W'io
torpedoed, were merclessly raked
with gunfire, and exterminated to the
last unprotected unpitied SOUL These
are the murders that stain the hands
of the Kaiser his advisers and min
ions. These outrages were perpetrated
on neutral vessels when all that civ
ilized warfare gave the Germans a
right to do even with the merchant
vessel under hostile flag, was to
stop 1t at sea and make it prize OF
war
To kill the civilians on board, even
under hostile flag, was nothing but
unmitigated murder And these muir
ders were committed In order that we
might be enslaved! Having the
right to take the sea with his feet
but being afraid to do so for fear he
might lose II, and being unable by
fair means to stop the selling of our
products to his enemies, the Kaiser
declared that he would do II by the
foulest methods ever resorted to in
war. He declared the sea closed,
and that he would keep 1t closed, not
by war, but by murder.
To have submitted would have cost
us dear in prosperity but that would
have been the least OF our loss.

pfore the German government.

BUILDING UP A DAIRY HERD
Essential That pairymsn BE Breeder.
Must Produce MIX, Cream or
Butter Of Quality.

Experience has taught the farmer
who is In the dairy business. 1t is
very essential that he raise the cows
on the farm that are to constitute the
future dairy herd. He must be a
breeder in the full sense of the word.
He must be as particular and
thoughtful as the man who is raising
thoroughbred high-price stock. He
should have definite purpose and
definite mental picture how best to ac-
complish that purpose. Form and
beauty breeding must give way to a
breeding for II fixed purpose-that is,
production of milk, cream or butter Of
the best quality, and at the lowest cost
of feed, labor and fixed charges that
must be met. All side issues should be
abandoned and, his brain, capital and
influence be given to building up his
dairy's performance.
