PLANT DISEASES
 TAKE HUGE TOLL
Farmer Suffers Loss of Income and Consumer Compelled to
 Pay Higher Prices.
CONTROL OF PESTS IS URGED
Can Be Brought About Only Through PainstakIng Technical Research, Followed by Adoption Of Rem-
 edles by Farmers.

(Prepared by the United States Department
 of Agriculture)
 When a plant disease or some other crop pest destroys an important crop throughout a large area, 1t Is easy to see how dangerous these pests are both to agriculture and to the coun- try. The farmer whose crop Is de- stroyed suffers through loss of his income the consumer often through ab- normally increased cost of his food supply. Occasionally, as in 1916, when the wheat crop of the United States and Canada was reduced approximate ly 2S0,000,OO0 bushels by black stem rust after the entire expense involved in its production, except that of har- vesting and threshing, had been in cured, the result Is so serious as to endanger the stability of banks and of business generally in the devastated region and even, as in that case, to threaten the future of nations through impairment of food supply when need ed for winning the great war.
 Take Heavy Toll on Crops.
 But spectacular and widespread de- struction of crops Is by no means the only harm worked by plant diseases. Every season and In substantially ev- cry imporant producing section they take heavy toll on crop production. Their existence without control con- stitutes one of the chief hazards which the farmer encounters, increasing his cost of production and ultimately the price which consumers must pay.
 It has been difficult to determine even approximately the amount of damage done by plant diseases, but very careful estimates recently made

Leghorn, approaching in size fowls of is most desirable from the market mems viewpoint. It has a comb and wat ties of medium size which are not cas- fly frosted, thereby checking develop ment of egg production. It is we'll feathered, which makes 1t resistant to sudden changes in temperature.
 Foundations of New Breed.
 The project resulting in the creation of the new Lamona was started in 1912 when the idea was conceived of combining three varieties of fowls to produce a breed having the shape and the market qualities of the DOrking, with a yellow skin, white plumage, and four toes, and laying a white egg. A low-stationed, -feathered White Plymouth Rock male was mated to a Silver-Gray Dorking female; and a Single-Comb White Leghorn male, hay Ing a rather small, low comb, was mated to a Silver-Gray Dorking fe- male.
 The second year the offspring of these crosses were mated separately, the females being trap-nested, and only the high producers of the largest and whitest eggs were used for breed CTS Only males from high-producing females have been used at any time. The third year the results of the crosses of the second year were mated, and in addition, care was taken to select white specimens with yellow skins having only four toes. Since then 1t has been a task of careful se- lection and breeding.
 The new breed is not yet ready for introduction, and no specimens or eggs will be sold until the characteristics sought have been more firmly fixed. It Is as well or better developed than were several of the breeds and va rieties when they were introduced by their breeders, but the specialists of the department believe that 1t is not

You're Not a Hen.

The only institution that can sit still and produce results Is a hen.
 No firm, store, or Individual who looks to the general buying public for patronage can initiate the hen and make any business progress.
 There may have been time when the buyer hunted out the store that sold the article he wanted-but that was in the dead past.
 Today if you do not advertise the fact that you are in business to serve the public, the public will not know you. You must attract the buy er-the most patronage goes to the store that tells the people of Its buy Ing opportunities.
 You have no alternative; the hen has a monopoly. If you want to be a successful merchant you must ad- vertise.-I. c. s. Messenger.

SAVE CORN FOR EXTRA SEED
Excellent Plan to Select Enough to Serve for Two or Three Years
 Paintings.

When corn Is selected from the field for seed, the United States Department of Agriculture urges that enough seed be selected to serve for two or three years paintings. This Is essential In the origination and perpetuation of high-yielding varieties adapted to local conditions. Seed corn that natures well and dries out promptly without injury will keep It's good germinating and yielding power for four or five years. Often n bad season will pre- vent the selection of desirable corn for seed. But home e-grown seed corn of the best quality can be always avail able by protecting a sufficient quantity from moisture and from insects and other animals.

 That was the crude beginning of one of Americas key industries, for from these bee hive ovens, wasteful as they were, grew the great modern plants that as:onished the world during the war by their production of poison gases, high explosives, fertilizers and other vital necessities. In times of peace these plants produce dyes and great quantities of intermediates for In times of war they are easily con- verted into strongholds of defense.
 You will remember that it was an English boy who discovered the possi- bility of manufacturing dyes from coal tar but England let the great chance slip through her fingers and as a result war broke out in 1914 It was humili- ating for the United States to be caught mapping and to be compelled to beg Germany to sell us dyes to color our stamps and currency but England found herself in a far more serious situation. She had no dyes for her uniforms or flags, and no drugs for her wounded. She could not sell to the former German markets because she could not color her textiles. She could not send sufficient high exp1o- sivcs or gases to the front because she lacked the essential coal tar crude.
 But England will not be caught asleep again She has placed an em- bargo on foreign dyes and is working l with all her strength to develop het own chemical industry. @

Forest and Discovers the Philosopher of Coal
(Told In Eight SHctcHes) By JOHN RAYMOND
No. HI
THE PHILOSOPHER OF COAL

In 1771, there lived in the forest near Saarbrucken, in Germany, a chemist named Stauf He was an eccentric old man who had an idea far ahead of his times, that many things beside coke could be obtained in the combustion of bituminous coal.
 Stauf had constructed number of ovens over a burning mine and treated and soot. That was quite a forward step and although he lived in the depths of forest the great minds of Europe heard of his work In fact, Goethe, himself made a pilgrimage to the ovens of the far-seeing chemist and in his autobiography wrote a strik- ing comment on his visit to the Saar- brucken forest:
 Ready and glad to pour his com plaints into a human ear, the lean one foot and a slipper on the other, and with stockings hanging down and repeatedly pulled up in vain, dragged himself up the mountain to where the pitch house stood which he had built himself and saw with grief now falling into ruins. Here was found a connected row of ovens in which coal was to be freed from sulphur and made fit for use in the iron works but at the same time they wished also to recover the oil and pitch, and in deed, did not want to lose the lamp black, so that all failed together on account of the many ends in view"
 Goethe. who dubbed the chemist of Saarbrucken "Kohenphilosoph" or the Philosopher of Coal, wrote his com mentary less than century and half ago. What would be his comment to- day could he enter one of the great

 Must Aid StabiIlzatIon.
 That stabilization of agricultural pro- duction, which Is highly desirable from the standpoint of business as we'll as of the producer and the consumer, can only come when farmers generally are able so to shape their plantings that, with normal weather, the acreage planted will produce the approximate quantity required to meet the consum- Ing demand. Until this Is accom- plished, seasons of shortage with prices painfully high to the consumer are certain to be experienced. Along with these will come years of eSces. sive production in which the producer Is compelled to bear destructive loss because prices are below the cost of production. For the correction of this destructive alternation of too lit- tie and too great crop production the development of effective control of plant pests Is one of the most impor- tant factors.
