AGRICULTURAL NOTES
BY II. G. Seyforth.

James johnson has found that the
bacterial organism causing wildtirt
in tobacco is capable of injecting
many host plants other than tobacco
1t seems quite probable that these
secondary hosts can harbor the para.
site over winter. Seed disinfectioi
with corrosive sublimate and for
malin, which have been reported az
very successful elsewherd, do not
seem to have been successful IN ief
Wisconsin conditions, but Johnson
had found silver nitrae to be of much
promise.
In spite of the fact that only So per
cent of this years crop was harvested
before the frost, the actual yield re-
ported this year exceeds that of last
year by 100000 pounds. About IA
per cent of the states acreage was
abandoned without any attempt at
salvage.
Prices which the pool has fixed for
1928 leaf according to region and
grade have been announced as fol-
lows:
Northern Leaf: Grade A, Is inches
and up, 40 cents pound; short sizes
IA cents; seconds at 8 cents.
Grade BIS inches and up, 35
cents; short sizes IA cents; seconds,
9 cents.
Grade CHS cents and up, 80 cents,
short sizes Is cents, seconds, 9 cents.
Grade DIS inches and up, q
cents; short sizes, 13 cents; seconds,
8 cents.
Five years ago not five thousand
tobacco farmers sold their product
comparatively. Today, five co-opera
tive tobacco associations are dispos-
ing of two-t thirds of the nations crop.
The tobacco associations control q
substantial percentage of the crop in
their respective territories, to-wit:

That Cure for insomnia.

Blinkby suffered from insomnia, and
his friend told him sure cure.
Eat couple of bananas and drink
two or three glasses of milk before
going to bed" said he, land I'll war
rant you'll be- asleep within half an
hour"
Blinkby did as his friend suggested
and went to sleep soon after his re
tirement, but this is what he dreamed:
The friend came on the scene with
his head under his arm and asked II
Bllnkby wanted to buy his feet. Blink
by was negotiating with him, when
the dragon On which he was riding
slipped out Of its skin and left him
In midair.
While he was considering how he
should get down, bull with two
heads peered over the edge of the wall
and said he would haul Blinkby up II
he would first climb up and rig
windlass for him.
So, as BlinIsby was sliding down the
mountainside, the conductor came In,
and Bllnkby asked him when the train
would reach his station.
1--WE passed your station 200 years
ago." the conductor said calmly, fold
ing the train up and slipping 1t into
his waistcOat pocket
At this juncture Blinkby awoke and
found he had been asleep almost ten
minutes.
