BEING REDOUBLED
 TO ERADICATE POTATO WART

Although their efforts 10 eradicate the potato wart from 1oo acres or less in which il has found lodgment in the United States are as yet incon- elusive, pathological experts of the United States Department Of Agricul- ture are continuing an intensive scien- tifie warfare n stamp out the disease. The infection which has been found i'll only r inning villages in Pennsyl- vania, West Virginia. and Maryland. k one of the most stubborn with which the department has ever had to cope. Potato wart was introduced by i'm portations of foreign potatoes prior 10 the establishment in 1912 of the Federal quarantine prohibiting the importation of potatoes from countries where the disease was known to occur. The disease usually completely destroys the. crop when potatoes susceptible to it are planted in badly infested soil.
 Soil sterilization tests by means of sream and chemicals were carried out in infested gardens in Pennsylvania and West Virginia in 1919 and 1920. The methods tested were: Live steam uader an inverted iron pan a solution 8f foIma ldebyda a.plied tC the sci. ba.l alone ani n combination with steam and fhe li>e of other chemical ~alut ons. including Bordeaux mixture Harorric chlorida. and suiphuric acid. The worth of rat1 method was tested by planting susceptible variety of potatoes on The treated plots. None of thc chemical treatments resulted in complete eradication of the disease and steam sterilization. while if ap. peared to be successful in the small trial plots, involved such great expense and difficulty as to leave the practea= bility of eradication still in doubt.
 Additional experiments vii lhavc to be carried oh before specific recom- mendations can he made Specialists hope however. that some method of treating the soil hy heat ar chemicals can be devised which will make it pos sible completely To eradicate potato wart from this country.
 The work wil lhc actively carried
 
 T satisfactory method can be found

 Bamboo shoots were brought tO thi. country from China, Japan, India. and other countries hy tbe department 10 O. F years ago and cul Vation was started in Chico, Colif- and Brooks vile Fla \ mite was later discover. ed on the sheathS, however. which sapped the vitality of the plants. and ii was at first thought that th industry would have to he given up. But on study it was found that the mites could be destroyed with hot water without injury to the plants. Propagation of clean plants was then begun at Bell. Md, with view of establishing large clean groves in the gardens at Savan. nah Ga.
 Bamboo plants also suffer from a smut. which is carried in the rhizomse or root sprouts from which the plants  are propagated. Smut may be carried through the tissues of the plant, and manifest itself in tho new growth from which 1t is scattered by the wind, spreading the disease Combating this disease is another of the obstacles which the department has overcome ill developing what promises 10 be profitable Ameerican industry

CIGARETTES AND FAMINE
 WHISKY AND YELLOW FEVER

Just now when there is m effort be ing made to feed the starving millions of earth hy those who have plenty.a news item has gone the round of the press about the shipment of 90.000 GOO cigarettes 10 China. one If the famine sufferers. and the conclusion is reach cd by many that if they can buy ciga
 rettcs hen we are abSolved from the duty of feeding them and saving them times the population of the United States and one province knows but lt- tie about the others and we know more about the conditions of the different provinces here than they know over there Then China has never learned to Hove your neighbor as yourself" and does not know about "inasmueh" rules as we do. China ls heaLhon country and the heather lands are far below the Christian ones when if comes to lending helping hand to the one in trouble
 But We must also remember that hu- man nature k very much the same among he civilized people as among inc heathen and that under like circum- stances the average human does about the same way. For instance. some years back there was a great ~comge of vel low fever prevailing over The south and many towns in Mississippi and Louisiana were afflicted with this dread malady and hundreds of men anl women died in few weeks and con Sequently there Was great woe and want and the cry went up fer outside help and the people of the North began taking collections and were sending money to the stricken sections of the Southland. But in Prescott, Little Rock and in fact. in all the Southern towns and cities there was the open saloon and thousands of barrels of whisky were being sent 10 these places while The cry Tor help was going up from Mississippi and elsewhere. So there was published in the papers of the North that the South was importing and paying for thousands of barrels of whisky, so why should they send mon ey from there to help yellow fever suf- ferers? Why not let this whisky mon ey go to feed the orphans and widows of those fever victims Al that time Prescott had ! or saloons and dozens of barrels of liquor were being consum, ed here and only a scant offering was sent to help these starving ones just across the river
 Now if that happened in the land of and among the people noted for their hospitality we need not be sur prised that the heather Chinese" would do the same way If these things were done in a green tree what would be done in dry?e Many people of the North stopped sending money to the suffering southland and there would have been intense suffering among the children, but for the fact that others
