POTATOES DAMAGED BY
"APPLE LEAF HOPPER
Insects Infest Under Side Of Leaves
Causing Them to Blacken
And Dry Up

More than a dozen farmers have
complained that their potatoes are
turning black and the leaves rolling up.
Upons investigation l have found the
fields infested with the Apple Leaf
Hopper
This insect has appeared in destruc-
tive numbers over a large part OF
Wisconsin and has caused the leaves
of early potatoes to turn black and dry
up In the worst cases even the stems
have blackened and died
Most Of the damage is done by the
young green insects which stay on the
under sides of the leaves and run rap
idly but do not hop. These were
changing to adults with wings in
southern Wisconsin July 10 to July %.
These little green leafhoppers fly read
lily and will spread to late potatoes,
beans, and adjoining crops where an
other generation of young will be pro
duced. Just how serious this will be
cannot be predicted until early in
August.
Remedy: The best remedy is nico-
tine sulphate, ordinarily sold as "Black
Leaf 4O'' by drug stores. Use it in the
proportion of 1 part to 800 OF water,
10 teaspoonfuls to a gallon, or table
spoonful to a pail. Five times as much
soap as tobacco solution should be
added to the water. Soap to be dis
solved i'm water before nicotine is
added
If the BLACK Leaf 40" is not obtain
able, kerosene emulsion may be used.
To make this add two gallons of kero-
sene. one bar of soap Zone quart OF
soft soap) to a gallon OF boiling water
and run back and forth through a
spray pump until it makes a creamy
emulsion. (In small amounts an egg
beater may be used) Use one part OF
this mixture to parts of cold water.
Either the tobacco solution or the
kerosene emulsion must be thoroughly
SPRAYED so as to strike under surfaces
of the leaves. as these remedies only
kill the insects that they hit. Use an
iron pipe bent into crook for spray
ing underneath or else draw the potato
vines over just in front of the sprayer
by dragging heavy stick over them,
allowing the spray to strike just as the
plants are bent and springing up. A
person walking ahead with rake
works well with the small spray.
The young hoppers are readll!
killed by this method. The ones with
wings will usually fly and escape treat
ment. If they are numerous enough
| to warrant treatment, spray in the
early morning when they are sluggish
The reason late potatoes were not at
| tackled was because the leafhoppers
flew to the fields and laid their eggs
before the late potatoes were 'up
The second generation will be watched
and if treatment seems necessary fur
ther information will be given.

Special to Ladysmith NewsBudget.
LONDON, Aug. 9, Q:O0 p
m.)-Advices from the battle
front south of the Somme short
ly after noon today report that
British cavalry, armored cars
and tanks in advance of the in
fantry have reached to within a
mile of Chaulnes, important rail
way junction midway between
Peronne and Roye.
The advance has reached a
maximum depth of eleven miles.
Cavalry, tanks and armored
cars have gone ahead to a line
running from Lihons to Framer-
vile, another important junction
point, near Rosieres, all of these
towns now being held by the
British.
The British are reported to
have taken fifteen thousand
prisoners and it is thought the
number will exceed that figure.
The advance yesterday was
probably the greatest in territor-
ial extent by the allies in one
day since 1916.
Pres sing the advantage
gained, the British and French
are forcing the Germans back
toward the important Peronne-
Roye road and the entire Ger
man lines from the Aisne to the
sea are imperiled by the thrust
now being made.
In the drive in Flanders,
north of the Somme, British
troops have captured several vii
lagos. The enemy is resisting
vigorously and heavy fighting
is under way between Chipily
and Morlancourdt. Morlacourt
was taken by the British this
afternoon.

REVISING LAW
 ON RELIGION IN FLOWERY KINGDOM

TOKYO, Aug. 23.-The Govern ment is undertaking the work of re- vising the Japanese law for religious administration.
 According to R. Okada, minister of Education, the codes now actual ly in force were promulgated by the Japanese government over thirty years ago. He said:
 "I think the time has at least come for revising the law, as the re- ligious situation of the country is becoming more and more deplorable on account of the influence of many dangerous thoughts which have recently been imported from foreign countries
 MT. Okada declared that the new bill probably will be presented by the Government to the next Impe- rial Diet, which will be convened at the end of the year.

PRE-WAR PRICES
 ON CLOTHES WILL
 NEVER RETURN AGAIN

LONDON, Aug 26.-Gone, never to return, are the cheap pre-war prices of clothes. That is the view of an expert writing in British trade publication, and he predicts another rise soon.
 Every shot fired from a 12-inch gun, he says, uses up half a bale of cotton, and in three minutes ma chine-gun will squander a full bale
 The price of woolen cloth today is from two and three-quarters to three times greater than it was in July, 1914. Linen prices this year t is stated, probably will keep al least 33 1-3 per cent. above those ot 1917.
