fined to gardens in a few mining viii
lagos in Pennsylvania, West Virginia
and Maryland, from which its spread
is restricted by state quarantine laws.
The disease attacks only the stems and
roots of the tomato plant, causing
small warts; it probably does not re-
duce the yield of fruit.
The importance of the discovery OF
the susceptibility of tomatoes to pota-
to wart lies in the fact that affected to-
mato plants will serve to carry the dis
ease owe from year to year in the alb
of potatoes, and to introduce it
into new localities through the trans
planting of tomato seedlings grown in
Infested soil. 1t is not yet known def
nitely whether all varieties of tomatoes
are susceptible to the wart disease, but
it is feared that such may be the case.
Other plants belonging to the potato
family are suspected of being suscepti-
BILE to wart, and some of these have
been tested, but with iBcOnclusive re-
suits. These tests will be repeated.

BEST TIME TO CUT C0WPEAS-
Most Desirable Quality Of Hay Pro-
duced II Cut When Pods Are Full
Grown and Matured.

AS a rule cowpeas should not be
cut for hay before the pods begin to
turn yellow. The best quality is pro-
duced and the hay cures most readily
If the vines are cut when most OF the
pods are full grown and a consider
able number Of them are mature. At

SAYS STATE CONTROLS
ALL STREETS IN CITIES
RaiiWay LdWyer Argues Be-
fore u. S. Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.--The argument
on behalf OF the street railways of Chi
cago In the case brought against them
by the city of Chicago was presented in
tie Supreme Court to-day by III. T..
Weber. who asserted that under the
~ actice of the Supreme Court the case
was closed on the decision of the State
courts and should be dismissed for want
VI jurisdiction.
II Is not the doctrine of this court to
review cases where questions dependent
upon state constitutions or statutes are
az issue. but to accept In such cases as
i'nal the construction Of the highest
state court" Mr.. Weber said.
Numerous precedents we're cited which
the railways attorney said sustained the
contention that the States have para
mount control over the streets in n.uni-
cipaities, can delegate or take away
that power from the cities. He asserted
that In this case the State had never
conferred 1rca Chicago the power 70
contract ~'.'. '1e street railways for
l>ny period OF years. and had not In any
y-sy suspended its power of police regu-
lation to control In all matters. includ-
