POTATO DISEASE EXPLAINED
so-called Blight Due TO Tip-6urn or
Small Insect Known as the
Leaf-Hopper.

Much Of TIE so-called potato blight
which Is to be found Is due TO what Is
really tip-burn. or It may be due TO a
small insect known as the leaf-hopper.
The tip-burn is caused by the dry
weather and extreme heat as the sun
and wind draw the water from the
plant faster than the roots can supply
II from the ground. The Ieaf-hopper IS
small. greenish-like insect, which
win be found jumping from one plant
to another as the plants are moved

that old sows have a CESSATION period
one to three days longer than young

basis.
Neither Sex Predomlnates.
There was little, II any, correlation
between the length Of CESSATION period

OF CESSATION shows no tendency for
either sex TO predominant more than
