WATCH POTATOES FOR
EVIDENCES OF WART
European MaIady Is Said to Be
Most Destructive.
Introduced Into Coal Mining Districts
of Pennsylvania About 1911-In-
tested Soil Should Be Used
for Other Crops.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Every grower Of Irish potatoes
whether he handles a private patch or
a commercial acreage-is urged to
watch carefully his potatoes at dig
ging time for evidences of potato
wart disease, European malady
which is one of the most destructive
attacking potatoes. The wart disease
was introduced into % coal-mining
districts of Pennsylvania in potatoes
brought from Europe about 1911. At
that period of shortage several mil
lion bushels of spuds for food pur
poses were imported and distributed
widely throughout the country so that
many other sections possibly have
been exposed to infection. In order
to identify and quarantine all points
of infection it is imperative that all
growers, dealers, distributors and
county agents carefully inspect new
crop potatoes and report all suspicious
cases, in addition to sending samples
as soon as possible to their state ag~
ricultural college, state experiment
station or to the United States de-
partment of agriculture. Washington,
D. G.
If potato wart becomes generally
distributed in the United States it
means not only millions of dollars of
loss but also a complete change in
the potato industry to prevent it's
total destruction. Potato wart almost
completely destroys the spuds for food
purposes. Once established in the soil
all that can be done Is to work against
it's spread. The disease will remain
alive in the ground for as long as
eight years, and it is unsafe to plant
potatoes in infested soil within that
period. 1t is known that the potato
wart disease had been establishing
itself in the Pennsylvania localities
for six years before it was discovered.
The department of agriculture has
now placed a quarantine prohibiting
shipment Of potatoes from sections of

Llthuanla and Its People.

Lithuania is situated in the basin
Of the Niemen and Dvina rivers on the
southeastern coast Of the Baltic sea:
The capital Is Wilma. Its area Is ap-
proximately $4,000 square miles, the
population about 100000, of whom
100000 are Lithuanians 100000
Lithuanians proper, 100000 using
Slavic dialects and 100000 Let's. The
country also contains third of mil
lion Poles. The rest of the population
consists of Jews, White Russians, Ger
mans and Mongols. 1t is said that
there is no trace in the worlds history
of any other people having lived In
these regions. Although situated be-
tween the Slavs and the Teutons. the
Lithuanians are in no way related to
them. They claim that their language
is one of the oldest now spoken in the
world. 1t is said strikingly to re-
semble ancient Sanskrit. !

POOR WAY TO woo SLEEP
Man Who Experimental Pronounces
Insomnia "Cure" to Be at Least
of Doubtful Value.

A new cure for insomnia, we read, Is
to "list the first names Of all your
friends and acquaintance, taking each
letter Of the alphabet in order"
OF course this Is only variant of
the old device of counting imaginary
sheep jumping over wall. Personally
we never found that to work at all.
We counted between 1000 and $1,000
Of these alleged soporific sheep one
night, and then the alarm clock went
off and 1t was time to get up, which
we did with a groan, a headache and
pair of astigmatic eyes.
Making an alphabetical catalogue of
your friends first names Is an even
more stimulating and nerve-exciting
process. We would be willing to wager
that no normal persons could get fur
Their than the Ms before being inter-
rupted by the first call for breakfast.
1t Is doubtful at least, If the night con-
tains enough time to go through with
the whole list from Alfred to Gorilla.
We should say that this might be the
surest way to Danish sleep altogether.
The best way to WOO slumber, we
have been told, is to go into the ST.
lence, relax all muscles and nerves, and
then in mental way, pull all the edges
of the mind into a dead mental center
| and fold them in. It is hard to say
just how this Is done, but 1t sounds
plausible. Frequently, of course, there
are some difficulties merely in going
into silence. Somewhere on the prem
ises, perhaps In an adjacent apartment,
there may be someone who has gone
to sleep without going into the silence.
This interferes materially with the
working of all anti-insomnia devices.
If there is no neighboring obstacle Of
| this sort it is much easier matter.
And yet, even after the silence is ar
ranged, the mind Is apt to 60 on pro-
viding its own disturbance. Arithmet-
| ical and alphabetical diversions only
accentuate the tumult. The only thing
to do Is to regard the very center of
| the mind as hypothetical hole, or vac
uum, contract the mind until it Is all
pulled into this hole, and then pull the
| hole in after it. And there you are.
| Of course If there is certain degree
! of reality in this imagined condition,
one does not have to exercise the n.y.
pothesis, and that makes it so much
| easier-F. 81. Young in Providence

Europe where the disease has existed,
and If the Pennsylvania sections are
the only points Of infection the dis
ease is now under control.
Potato wart is characterized by
warty, spongy, cauliflower-like growths
on the underground portions of the
plant. Infections usually begin in the
eyes and attain the size of walnut
or larger. Sometimes entire tuhers
are converted into a spongy, warty
mass. Young warts are usually light
brown in color, although after decay
begins they turn black, which causes
the disease to be sometimes called
"black scab," or "black wart." Many
of the warts rot in the ground before
the crop is harvested. while others
decompose when the potatoes are
placed in storage. Some of the warts
left on the field at digging time may
remain alive under suitable conditions
for months. The disease may continue
to vegetate long after the potato crop
has been harvested, due to the sending
up of sprouts from the sound warts
and the development of new warts
from the tender portions of the young
sprouts.
Every precaution should be exer-
cised to prevent the spread Of tnfec-
ton. The warts should be collected
and destroyed by burning. Diseased

without first being boiled. Soil known
to be infested should be planted to
other crops.
Attempts to control the disease by
treating infested soils with chemicals
have failed. In European countries it
has been ascertained that certain Pc
tato varieties resist this disease. No
American varieties Of potatoes have
been tested for resistance to rot, but
experiments of this nature are pro-
posed.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Roo is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
it's remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, IN
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

DIGGING PARSNIPS BY HAND
Special Attention Is Important Be-
cause If Roots Are Cut Value
Is Lessened.

The digging of parsnips demands
special attention. If the roots are
cut or broken their value for market
is largely destroyed; the entire root
to point one-fourth inch in diameter
should be secured. Attempts to dig
the roots out with a spade or to pillow
them out are sure to result disastrous
ly. A trench should be dug or plowed
close to each side of the row and the
roots pulled out by hand. This is
about the only practical way of secur-
ing them without injury.
