men Of California and Arizona
Use IL on Roads

F1eece-Iined roads for getting motor
lists over desert sands have recently
made their appearance and have sur
prised a great many motor tourists
travelling through certain sections OF
California and Arizona, says the Il
Illustrated World. There Is such a low
market value upon cotton in certain
sections that it scarcely pays to
haul it to the railroad stations. Much
that is raised, therefore, goes into the
making of roads.
Ranchmen OF the Salt River valley
Of Arizona are doing with cotton just
what farmers In other sandy sections
do with straw or brush. Cotton Is
simply thrown down upon the road
ever stretches where the sand Is an
noying. Traffic owe the road then
packs the cotton down into the sand
| until 1t forms a firm, smooth and re
| silent surface, Eel which motor
vehicles may progress with almost as
much ease as over a paved street In
a city.

A survey of the Western states coh-
tueresi during the past summer nY pa
biologists of The United States De
oartnent Of agriculture shows that
unless adeqIa~e measures TOR the
elimination of the mosaic disease OF
potatoes are taken Immediately the
work Of potato seed improvement In
tha West will soon become extremely
difficult. IL at all possible. Being Of an
Infectious nature, he disease IL spread
la the field throughout The summer by
means Of insects which carry Ii from
diseased TO healthy plants, n 1t Is
also transmitted with the seed tubers
from QUE generation to another.
There is no evidence that a plant
once infected can e0v and prodllce
A healthy progeny at any time. On the
contrary, the infected plants ordinarily
under certain environnental condl-
lions practically cease TO produce tu-
bers In the third or fourth generation.

DOT in all cases and by no means Per

sta of the disease left in the stock
serve as perpetual sources OF infection,
and eventually the entire strain be-
| comes diseased and ls apt to run out
completely.
Reduces Yield 80 Per Cent
1t has been repeatedly demonstrated
n the East that the average reduction
OF yield due to mosaic Is about 80 pei
cent Precisely the same effect Of this
disease was noted In the case OF all the
varieties grown in different Western
states. Some remarkable instances
were observed during the last two
years of field observations carried or
,y the department. in which the reduc
ton OF yield In individual hills was II

Infection.

complain that where 800 sacks or mol

While Irish potatoes are not adapt.
ii to growing in the extremely small
-arden, most gardeners prefer to in
lude them IN their list. One peck Of
seed Irish potatoes will plant about
800 feet of row. 1t seldom pays to
plant homegrown seed and it Is much
better to use the homegrown pota
toes IN the table and purchase seed
that has been produced In some local
ity especially adapted for seed grow
ing. Potatoes require weilpre-
pared, rich soil, and 1t pays to use
commercial fertilizer, well mixed with
me soil of the hills or the rows. The
seed should be cut two eyes to

only q meager quantity Of even reia

There Is very little, II any. hope OF
improving badly infected strains Of po-
tatoes, the department specialists
think, therefore, prompt efforts should
be made to locate the most healthy
strains Of the various important COM
mercial varieties. Since there Is no
means at present OF detecting mosaic
on the tuber the search should be con
fined exclusively to the fields during
the growing season When the best
strains are found they should further
be improved by the annual elimination
0f all the diseased individuals.
Specialists Must Be Sought.
It is necessary to place this work In
charge OF highly trained specialists,
since the Identification Of certain

knowledge. Furthermore. manifesto.
