tatoes when rejection is a foregone
conclusion.
Scab Is another example Of field
disease which causes severe deprecia-
ton in the value Of crop of potatoes.
The presence of few scabby potatoes
may lower the grade of an otherwise
fancy lot. In some sections scab can
be controlled by seed treatment, but
in many cases careful grading will pre-
vent scabby potatoes as well as those
affected with wire-worm, white-grub,
nematode, and flea-beetle injury from
reaching the market.
Other Troubles Cause Rejection.
Other field troubles, less apparent at
the time of digging than these, often
play role in the rejection Of ship
ments. Among them are brown rot of
southern potatoes, and the group Of
rots associated with fusarium wilt.
During the winter the heaviest losses
are due to rots which start in wounds
inflicted In digging, loading and haul
ing. These rots, known as fusarium
tuber rots, are caused by fungi which
live In the soil, and can attack tubers
In any sort of break In the skin,
whether caused by bruising. fork In
jury, jamming. freezing, or disease
such as late blight tuber rot. These
rots progress rapidly In storage and
transit, and cause enormous losses.
Freezing due to improper loading or
heating Of cars is also very common.
In warm weather, the greatest losses
are due to Shiny soft rot, which Is
caused by certain bacteria attacking
potato tissue which has been killed by
bruising. water-logging Of the soil,
scaldlng, freezing, or other causes.

Hep obesity and hen languor are OPP
posed to profitable poultry production
because excessively fat hens, as well
as languid, lazy hens, lay few eggs
and devote their energies to storing
up surplus avoirdupols instead OF con-
centrating on the manufacture of an
egg every other day. Hustle yourself,
old lady hen, and do not, develop
ennui to the extent that you become
portly and ambltionless. Remember
that all the consumers love fat hen
on the table while all the producers
deplore too fat a hen In the flock.
Hence, be forewarned and forearmed--
doff your sluggish, phlegmatic tenden-
cies, or else you'll have to execute some
clever lodging to escape the ak.
Early noting hens may lay well
during the spring season, but when the
summer is on In all Its glory they
slump and decline In production to the
extent that it Is extravagant to keep
them longer In the flock. Good spring
layers often are not good summer lay
ers.
No hen should be sold while she con-
tinues to lay. Occasionally hen that
has become broody may again resume
laying after brief period and con-
tinue profitable production throughout
the summer. Generally speaking. all
hens that begin to molt In June or
July should be disposed of as soon as
they stop laying. advise United States
department Of agriculture specialists.
Keep EGG Basket Full.
Where full egg basket Is desired,
1t is essential to provide the flock with
plenty Of fresh air and sunshine dur
ing the summer as well as an abund-
ance of shade, as hens cannot with
stand excessive heat. 1t is necessary
to provide plenty Of green feed. such
as beet, turnip, carrot and onion tops,
as well as waste leaves from cabbage
and lettuce and also such material MS
