THE CAMPAIGN

Let's have a clean campaign, de-
void of squabblings vain; to can
didates and kindred skates a cour-
teous mein maintain. Let's hold
no long disputes with eloquent
galoots, not fill the air with fur
and hair, and bricks and rocks
and boots. It's useless to get sore
and rant and walk the floor, con-
vincing jakes of their mistakes
they'll make the same some more.
It's useless to see red, and punch
your neighbor's head; because
that might may well be right,
when all is done and said. The
statesmen come along and chant
the same old song; if they get in
they'll Danish sin, and outlaw ev-
cry wrong. hear the siren tune
the smooth old statesmen Groom,
and much it means to horse mar
ines, and people in the moon. But
| have heard it sung since days
when was young; and l am wise
to all such guys, for often I've
been stung. And so, while others
scrap, and yammer, zip and yap,
l prune my trees and herd my
bees, and keep some smiles on tap.

onion SMUT CAN
Be CONTROLLED
After Experiments Solution Of
Forma!dehyde Is Recon-
mended by Specialists.
Y0UNG SEEDLINGS ATTACKED
After Plants Are About Three Inches
High They Become Immune to In
fection-Care Necessary In
Applying Treatment.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The spread of onion smut into the
large northern onion sections and its
increasing prevalence each year have
emphasized the Importance of prac-
tical means of control for this desease.
After careful experimentation, special
lists Of the United States department
OF agriculture recommend u solution of
forrnaldehyde In the furrow with the
seed.
Onion smut is caused by fungous
parasite which lives in the soil and,
when once introduced, spreads slowly
to adjoining areas. In the spring, at
the time when the onion seeds are
terminating. the smut spores. or seed
bodies, also germinate and infect the
young seedlings, causing brown to
black elongated blisters within the
scales or leaves, which often split
open, exposing the powdery black
masses of spores. Affected leaves
usually are slightly thickened and
often curve downward. Many OF the
young seedlings are so heavily at
tackled that they die within three to
five weeks after termination. Others
may survive until harvest time and
reach, the warehouse or market.
Controlled by FormaIdehyde.
A peculiar and important fact about
onion smut is that the onion plant can
be attacked by fungus only while in
the young Seeding stage. After the
plants are about three inches high
they become immune to infection by
the smut fungus, and onion sets or
seedlings three to four inches high

Onion Smut Can Be Controlled by Ap-
plication Of a Solution of Formaide-
hyde in the FurroW With the Seed.

transplanted tO&mut-infested soil will
not contract the disease. In the large
commercial onion districts of the
Northern states, where the use of sets
or seedlings Is impractical, advantage
Is taken of the fact that onion smut
can be controlled by the application OF
solution of formaidehyde in the fur
row with the seed Since the young
onion Seeding Is susceptible to the
disease for only a short time. 1t is nee
essary to use only enough of the dis
infectant to keep the fungus in check
in the soil close to the seed. The ap-
paratus for applying the formaldehyde
solution consists of galvanized iron
tank, which is attached to the onion
seeder. Such an attachment Is Illus
trated and described In detail In Uni
ted States department of agriculture
Farmers Bulletin 1860. which will be
sent to any applicant upon request.
Care Necessary In Applying.
Great care should he used In apply.
Ing this treatment, since too strong n
solution will prevent the onion seed
from terminating, while too weak Il
solution will not hold the fungus In
check. Repeated recent experiments
conducted by the department Of agri-
culture in the Racine (Wis.) district
have shown that 200 gallons per acre
will give the most satisfactory results
and that there Is no advantage In this
case In using u stronger solution than
1 :12S Zone pint of formaldehyde to six
teen gallons Of water). Where there
is serious objection to using this
amount OF liquid. because of difficulty
OF application. the quantity may be
reduced to 100 to 150 gallons, but In
this case a stronger solution should be
used (twO pints of fOrmaldehyde TO
sixteen gallons of water). Raising the
strength OF the solution beyond this
point entails danger OF reduction Of
the stand. due TO seeding injury.
In sowing onion seed for onion sets.
as they are grown In the Wisconsin,
Illinois and Indiana sections by the
single-rOw method, about twenty times
as much seed is used per row as In
the case of large bulb production. This
fact does not necessarily alter the
quantity OF formaldehyde solution to

soil surrounding the seed is to be dis
infected in either case. Results Sc

"In justice to Jack Dempsey,

that you cease Immediately your
propaganda that you are now start
ing throughout the country in your
efforts TO boost Bob Martin and
to promote fight between him and
j Carpenter by sending out literature
I which is false and misleading, in
which you are attempting to convey
an impression that Jack Dempsey

Kearns Has Letter.
II have in my possession now
a letter which you are sending
broadcast quoting unwarranted res
olutions to show Dempsey was a
draft dodger and which you are
using in an effort to discredit Demp-
sey and urging the American Legion
in an effort to boost your fighter.
Your action is the most out
rageous injustice ever attempted by
a manager OF rival fighter. Real
sportsmen do not have to adopt
those methods and if there are any
more moves like that on your part,
! will be forced to take the proper.
legal action.
Must Stop at Once.
Dempsey followed the dictation
OF his government and acted accord
ing to the instructions of his draft
board and the chairman of said
draft board, John S. Hogan, states
over his own signature that Demp-
sey was more valuable to the field
in which he was placed than if he
were carrying gun. | must insist
upon immediate assurance from you
that you will stop at once the propa-
ganda which you have instituted as
an idividual member of the Amer
lean Legion to bring nationwide
condemnation upon Jack Dempsey
and to use the American Legion
merely and solely for your own per-
sonal profit and gain and to capi-
talize for your own selfish interest
