lists over desert sands have recently
made their appearance and have sur
prised great many motor tourists
travelling through certain sections Of
California and Arizona, says the IL
lustrated World. There Is such low
market value upon cotton In certain
sections that 1t scarcely pays to
haul 1t 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
over stretches where the sand Is ar
noying. Traffic over the road then
packs the cotton down into the sand
until 1t forms n firm, smooth and re-
silent surface, over which motor
vehicles may progress with almost as
much ease as over paved street In
a city.

WAY TO PLANT IRISH POTATO
Crop Not Particularly Adapted to
Small Gardens and Requires
Weil-Prepared Soil.

While Irish potatoes are not adapt
ed to growing In the extremely small
garden, most gardeners prefer to in
clude 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 on the table and purchase seed
that has been produced in some local
ity especially adapted for seed grow
ing. Potatoes require a well-pre-
pared, rich soil, and 1t pays to use
commercial fertilizer, well mixed with
the soil of the hills or the rows. The
seed should be cut two eyes to
each piece. with plenty of potato at
tached. One piece should be planted
in each hill and covered to a depth Of
about 31a or 4 inches. The rows
should be at least 80 inches apart and

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agrtcuiturs.)
A survey Of the Western states con-
Quoted during the past summer by pa
biologists Of the United States De.
partment of Agriculture shows that
unless adequate measures for the
elimination Of the mosaic disease Of
potatoes are taken Immediately the
work Of potato seed Improvement In
the West will soon become extremely
difficult. II at all possible. Being of an
infectious nature. the disease is spread
In the field throughout the summer by
means Of insects which carry 1t from
diseased to healthy plants, and 1t Is
also transmitted with the seed tubers
from one generation to another.
There is no evidence that a plant
once infected can recover and produce
a healthy progeny at any time. On the
contrary, the infected plants ordinarily
under certain environmental condi-
tons practically cease to produce tu-
bers in the third or fourth generation.
II only partial wedding out Of the
worst cases is practlced, the situation
may be somewhat improved. though
not in all cases and by no means per-
manently. The mild and the medium
stages of the disease left in the stock
serve as perpetual sources of infection,
and eventually the entire strain be-
comes diseased and Is apt to run OUT
completely.
Reduces Yield 80 Per Gent.
It has been repeatedly demonstrated
In the East that the average reduction
Of yield due to mosaic is about 80 per
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 on
by the department In which the reduc-
ton Of yield in individual hills was in
direct proportion to the severity of the
infection.
The potato acreage in certain irri-
gated sections of the West has been
Increased this year by one-third as
compared with that Of the last year,
yet the yield In these districts is only
two-thIrds of normal. Many growers
complain that where 800 sacks or more
were raised to the acre In former
years, only 100 to $50 sacks are obtain
able now. This is in fields under good
cultural conditions. showing good
stands and high freedom from
fungus and bacterial diseases. The
low yielding quality Of the strains In
question no doubt Is principally a
manifestation of mosaic. The need Of
good seed in the West Is well recog-

nized and Is growing every year, yet
only a meager quantity of even rela-
lively good seed is obtainable.
There is very little, If 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
Of all the diseased individuals.
Specialists Must Be Sought.
1t is necessary to place this work in
charge of highly trained specialists.
since the Identification Of certain
minute and peculiar characters Of the
disease requires considerable expert
ence and great deal Of pathological
knowledge. Furthermore, manifesta-
tions Of mosaic under the varied cul-
tural and climatic conditions of the
West are often very obscure and not
yet fully understood.
