No Matches In Portugal
(By Associated Press)

Lisbon, Sept. 10 Matches have
disappeared from the market
much to the discomfort of smok-
ers and housewives. Walters and
cigar store clerks who are able to
furnish few matches have been
extremely popular for two weeks
In view of the high prices here,
the operatives of the Match Com
pany demand higher wages, and
the company to meet their wishes
petitioned the government for
permission to raise the price OF
This consent has not
been given and in view of the
deadlock the inhabitants of Por-
tugal have had no matches for
about fortnight, since the stocks
in the shops are exhausted.

SOME QUESTIONS

The following pertinent questions
are asked:
Is it fair to ask preacher to come
away from his vacation comforts and
then not be in your pen to hear him ?
Is it fair to lay upon any one man
the duty of creating all the enthusi-
asm for the church services during
the hot weather, and thus expect the
preacher to draw the crowds ?? What
about being a missionary?
Is it fair to profess to love Jesus
supremacy and consider His faith OF
first Importance and then desert His
house of worship and thus bring pain
to His heart?
Is it fair to grant yourself. those
liberties which, if practiced by all,
would paralyze the church and de-
stroy her influence?
Is it fair to hold the truth of God
within your own heart when others
need it? A. I. 7.

HISTORY OF KENTUCKY

The Daily Register has just re-
ceived a most beautifully printed
and delightfully."- written booklet
from the Kentucky Jockey Club,
in which is compiled a history of
the famous turf classic, the Ken.

bellished with photographs of
leading turf officials and famous
racers which the Blue Grass state
produced. 1t is indeed a work of
art in every way. Daniel E.
lO'Sullivan, of Louisville, who did
the editorial work on the volume.
prefaces the work with An APP
probation of the Kentucky
Thoroughbred, which is work Of
art itself. He writes:
He is of royal lineage. No
|plebeian strain pollutes the pure
blood that courses through his
veins. The fire of the desert
suns is in his eyes its warmth is
in his heart the speed of Arabian
winds is in his feet. His courage
is heritage of the ages. 1t was
struck at white heat from the an
vii of daring and sacrifice. for in
the tent of his master he learned
love and loyalty and in.tribal con-
fiict he shared the dangers and
glory of battle.
Cross the thoroughbred on a
colder breed and he will fill the
currents of its sluggish nature
with ambition. The magic of his
blood will brighten its dull eve.

crest, lend lustre to its coat and
give shape and swiftness to its

Kings and queens are not as
royalty bred. They often perpet-
uate the mental and physical de-
fects of their degenerate forbears.
But the thoroughbred is tried in
the furnace of contest and if he
fails ne is cast aside. No quarter
is shown; he must win his right
to found family. If he is beaten
he is doomed to ignoble tasks. If.

ENDORSEMENT OF SIMS
 NOT MERE RANDOM SHOT

"Wilson considers it in the interest of America that none of the belliger- ents should obtain decisive victory" -Benstorff on September 12, 1916.
 "The president laid stress on the fact that he did not want war with Germany and could not understand Roosevelt and Lodge, who did. Wilson maintained that it was his one desire to remain neutral and contribute to the termination of the war, decision by strength of arms being in his opin- ion impossible. e."-Bernstorff' account of an interview with President Will son on the occasion of his delivery of secret Imperial letter." presumably to Gerard, which account was received at the German foreign ministry on Oc- tober IA, 1916. @k
 We do not quote the above because they contain any startling news or because we fancy Bernstorf as wit ness. We accept Bernstorff only be- cause he agrees with what was com mon knowledge. President Wilson said publicly in his address to con- gress on January 22, 1917-that is, after his reelection, which was still pending and at least dubious when the above Bernstorff testimony was writ ten--that "it must be- a peace with out a victory" We only emphasize this new revelation as to how tfe at titude of the American president ap- peared to the representative of brutal interruptions, treacherous and illimit- ably ambitious German imperialism at this time in order to remind ourselves of the mental processes of the presi- dent during period not long prior to the sensational Sims incident. For, after all, the president was then far more than now the dominating mind in Washington, and whoever "admon- ished" Sims had very probably felt the thought-wave from the white house.-Philadelphia Ledger.

Special Summaries
 For Month of February.

Moderate temperature invited agri- cultural activity throughout the state but periods of heavy rainfall in the last three weeks interferred somewhat with soil cultivation. Only high eleva- tions were covered with snow, the snow line in some cases reaching as high as 5000 feet. Stock ranges were free of snow most of the time and improved somewhat under the favorable weather conditions. Stock on desert ranges did exceedingly well, an abundance of food and water being available. Lamb ing progressed favorably, the crop be- ing unusually large. Shearing began in the Congress Junction section dur ing the first of the week. Wheat, oats and barley made an excellent growth. Cutting and shipment of lettuce closed with the third week, the crop being small, but of excellent quality. Apri- cots and peaches were in full bloom at the close of the, month. A consider able quantity of grapefruit remains on the trees and is picked as needed. Preparation of the soil for the new cotton crop is about completed and some planting has already been done in the Comeback and Scottsdale sec tionS.

THE FARMS AND THE RANGES
Seed Treatment of Potatoes. Diseases Concerned.
Edited by Francis A. Chisholm, County Agricu tural Agent

Seed Treatment of Potatoes.
 Diseases Concerned.
 (New York State College of Agri- culture at Cornell University.)
 Common Scab--Scab is caused by a parasite bacterium which attacks the skin of the potato tuber. 1t is carried through the winter in soil, in manure, and on the potatoes themselves. The growth of the organism is favored by an alkaline soil. To control
 l. Rotate potatoes widely with other crops.
 2. Use care in the application of manure, wood ashes, lime,' or alkaline producing fertilizers.
 3. Treat the seed before planting.
 Rhizoctonoise-The fungus rhizoc- tonia solani causes injury in several ways. 1. It rots the young sprouts resulting in missing hills and an un- even stand. 2. Affected vines often produce. nothing but small and worth less potatoes. 3. A black scurf IS de- veloped on the surface of the other- wise healthy tubers.
 Control by rotating potatoes with hay and cereal crops, and by disinfect- luR Stcu Wltil SoiioSiNS
 Black Leg-The bacillus causing black leg attacks the stalk and kills the plant. It is harbored through the winter in or upon the surface of the seed. The disease is controlled by the removal of affected plants from the seed plot and by selecting and disin- fecting the seed.
 Powdery Scab-This new disease may often be prevented from becoming established in the soil by disinfection of the seed.
 Corrosive Sublimate Treatment (Directions)- .,
 1. Soak tubers for 11a hours in a solution made by adding 4 ounces of the powdered corrosive sublimate to every 30 gallons of water.
 2. As the powder is soluble with difficulty in cold water it should first be dissolved in quart or more of hot water. D not use metal vessel for this purpose.
 8. Wooden troughs or tubs may be used for the treatment but it is be- lieved that barrels make the handiest containers. An inch hole, fitted with a wooden plug, is made in the side and near the bottom of each barrel. The barrels are then set upon a platform high enough so that the solution may be drawn off into tub or pail.
 4. Fill the barrels with uncut pota- toes and cover them with the solution. At the end of F hours draw off the liquid, empty the tubers and refill. Add more fresh solution to replace that taken up by the treated seed.
