In States where the Irish potato
foliage has been badly attacked by the
late blight disease and rot Is threaten
ed, 1t is best to delay digging until 10
days or longer after the tops are fully
dead. preferably until after frost
has killed the vines. say specialists Of
the Bureau Of Plant Industry. United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Earlier digging Will result in fell
tuber infection and subsequent de-
velopment of rot in the cellar. e.
periments have shown that the small
est percentage of tuber rot in storage
follows the practice of delayed Gig
ging.
Late blight has been more or less
general and severe this season In the
New England States. New York, PEN
nsylvania, Ohio, northern New Jersey,
western Maryland. and West Virginia,
and was especially prevalent, on &C.
count Of the cool. rainy weather which
prevailed in these States throughout
the latter part of July and most of
August. In some instances the most
of dry weather which frequently
comes about the last of August has
checked the disease.
The tuber infection takes place
chiefly in the field when the potatoes
are dug too soon after the tops dae
down with the disease and while
the fungus 10 yet alive. BY delaying
the digging until the tops have been
dead some time or until freeze
kills the stems. the fungus also II
killed to . large extent and hence
little or NO new tuber infection takes
place.
The large commercial grower mus:
consider his labor supply in relation
to the time available for digging be-
fore the potatoes will be frozen in the
ground and delay his digging as much
as consistent with getting the crop
out before frost injury. In the most
northern sections not as much delay
can be practiced a. in States farther
south. It is the farm.home supply
which can be dug in few days where
the greatest advantages can be taken
Of this means Of reducing field tuber
infection and subsequent storage rot.

Three changes of pitchers besides

Three changes of pitchers besides several arrangements in the field could not stop the hitting of the Staff ford nine Sunday afternoon when they met the Webster, Mass, team on their new diamond in Keefe's plains. The result was they made 21 runs while the guests scored but twice. Certain
 ly promising way to open a new Der of runs on both sides was Robert Sawin of Canaan who came here to pitch for Stafford. His pitching caus- ed the opponents score to be so small, he struck out eleven and walked not one. His hitting had much to do with Staffords big total, out of six times at bat he hit three singles and double, scoring two or three men nearly every time. Certain it is he was the hero. But there were other features. Madsen came back into the game in his old position in right field after a years absence and had batting ability still with him. Dickey, Gilman and some of the others re- covered their batting eyes. They could all manage to get on base and Sawin then knocked them in. Many free tickets to first were handed out. Altogether the three opposing slab
 men passed out nine. Two runs were
 forced in by walks in the third. And
 all the while the guests were busy
 changing their players from place to
 place, but it availed little. Cerago
 circled the sacks four times in place

 weak, and he also managed to steal

IF YOU ARE INTEREST ED IN BUILDING COSTS, read the following con- tributed to a leading fi- nancial paper, by one of largest construction com- panies in the country,
 "A great many manufacturers and property owners have written us, ,' says the Fuller Corp, that they were considering new work, that they space, but hesitated to begin con- struction because building costs were so high. They have asked us when will building costs be lower?'
 There are three conditions which might bring about a reduction in building costs: 1. A reduction in demand. 9. A reduction in wages of labor. 3. A reduction in price of building materials.
 "A reduction in the demand for ad- ditional construction is highly inn probable, in view of the present short age of building space which has re- suited from a slowing down of com mercial and industrial building during the period of the war.
 ''As to the hope for a reduction in building costs due to a reduction in wages paid to labor, it does not seem probable that the labOring man will be content to to accept any reduction in the size of his pay envelope. His attitude is rather to corce wages to higher planes.
 "The hope for d reduction in the cost of building materials rests very largely on the hope for reduction in wages, because, for every dollar spent for brick. cement or steel which goes into a building, from S5 per cent to 90 per cent of such price ultimately goes back to the lal orer who dug the clay, mined the coal, turned the brick, ground the cement. rolled the steel, and transported all of them over rail road lines to the site of the work and built them into the structure. Until these related wages go down there fore, it is not reasonable to expect any substantial reduction in the price of iuilding materials.

 It is with keen sorrow that we are called upon to record the death on
 July first, Nineteen hundred and twenty, of our Secretary and Treasur- CT, Charles F. Harwood. MT. Harwood became connected with this Bank on July 16, 1872, and continued in it's service-as book-keep- CT and treasurer for a period of near ly forty eight years. Under his care and due in large measure to his ju- dicious guidance, the Institution has experienced continued and staunch growth into it's present excellent con- dition.
 Upright in character, faithful to duty, loyal in friendships and dis corning in business-he has given us enduring evidence of the real worth which is reward of conscientious devotion to service in business and to ones fellowmen.
 The members of this Board feel, that in his death they have lost an estimable friend, and the Bank a wise councillor. We desire to inscribe ill our records our apprecia- tion of his sterling qualities as a man and of his exceeding worth in the management of this Institution.
 Voted:
 That a copy of this resolution be given to the family, printed in the Stafford Press, and inscribed in the book of records of this Bank.
