TOMATO BLIGHT

Tomato production on the Eastern
Shore. already expected to be below
normal as result of the wet weather
and a scarcity Of plants, is likely to
be reduced still further by an un-
usually severe epidemic OF early
blight which is attacking plants in
the fields seriously jeopardizing the
crop outlook, according to DR.. r. A.
Jehle, plant pathologist for the
University Of Maryland Extension
Service.
The disease is very prevalent in
Dorchester County, says DR.. Jehle
and is likely present In other coun
ties of the Eastern Shore. It's spread

and II is particularly noticeable on
plants which were not we'll sprayed

Early blight attacks the stems and
leaves Of tomato plants and appears
as a sunkep brown patch, says DR..
Jehle. The stem becomes weaken

the plants are easily hroken. If not

There is no cure for the disease

losses where the disease has become

PRESIDENT
After the bitterest fight ever waged
at presidential convention, the Demo-
ratio party placed in nomination on
Wednesday, John w. Davis, OF West
Virginia, as their nominee for
President.
Itrequired 1903 ballots before the
nomination was made, the convention
having been deadlocked for days, with
a fight on between VIM. G. McAdoo, Of
California, a dry candidate, and AL.
Smith, Governor of New York, the
hope and choice Of the "wets."
From the outset it was apparent that
Smith could not be nominated, and that
Tammany and the liquor interests were
backing him for the sole purpose Of de-
feating McAdoo. This proved a bigger
job than had been anticipated by the
Tammany bosses, but it was finally
accomplished.
Chas. w. Bryan, Governor OF Me-
breska, was named as the Vice-Pres-
idential candidate, and the conven-
tion passed into history with the
firm convention that It will be many
a day before another one Is held In
New York city, where the Tammany
crowd will again have a chance to
bulldoze and dominate.
