Several other diseases which
are coming to be more generally
known by the potato growers are
those which the plant disease spec
ialist recognized in a general way,
as the running out disease. These
diseases cannot be treated IN any
way by seed treatment, but must be
overcome by elimination OF the
hills producing this kind of potato
as grown in the field plot. Pota-
toes having this disease very often
are the incest looking potatoes of
the variety and there is no way of
telling by study of the seed as to
whether it is infected. That is the
reason for the seed certification
law which was passed a few years
ago. A grower of certified seed
must have his field inspected and
must have low percentage of
these diseases showing in the field
and then must weed out the hills
showing the disease. In this way
a good grade of seed nearly free of
these running out diseases is pro-
duced, and the grower thus pro-
ducing it is given a certificate of
certification and furnished with
blue tags printed by the State De-
partment of Agriculture, to show
that this seed is certified. Certif-
ication merely guarantees that this
seed has low percentage of the
running out diseases which so
seriously affect yield. However,
seed is not certified that is badly
affected with Scab, or Rhizotonia.
According to Mr.. Armstrong, the
extension specialist in horticulture
it is not necessary to treat seed to
be used in growing the late or
main crop of potatoes here in this
section, since Rhizotonia develops
n cool climate rather than during
warm weather such as exists when
the late crop is planted here.
With certified seed from a good
source and the grower following
the recommendations of the Irri-
cation Branch Station at Prosser
on potato production, we believe
that it should be possible to pro-
duce good crop of good quality
and which should provide the max
imum amount of marketable pota-

$4,000 FOR CERTIFIED GEMS

The experience of the past two
years in the potato deal will prob
ably make many people shy at the
potato game for the coming sea-
on. When seed growers producing
certified seed are quoted this at
$4,000 per ton fob. shipping point
and one of these delivered at Ken
newick, in two or two and one-half
ton lots, at these prices, those in
terested in the growing of Melted
Gems should at least be interested
in seed of this quality. We believe
that growers who are contemplate
ing growing Melted Gems should
make every effort to secure this
type of seed for the coming season.
The county agent has had several
letters from growers stating that
they are wiling to take this price
for good seed stock, and some of
it having even been grown under
the tuber unit method, which
should guarantee about as good a
grade as is possible. We would be
glad to pass this information on
to anyone interested.
We found during the spring and
summer season last year, a gener-
al lack of information as to just
what was certified seed. Potatoes
are subject to many diseases, the
better known ones, being Scab,
Rhizoctonia, and Blight. These dis
eases are controlled by seed treat
ment or spraying Of. the vines in
the case of Blight.

IMPROVING THE HOME
GROUNDS INTERESTING

Improvement of the grounds i'm
mediately aboue the buildings is
a matter in which many nave oeen
interested, but have not known
how to go ahead with the work of
Improvement. At several times, IN
the past, Mr.. Armstrong, the ex-
tension specialist in horticulture,
has given latern slide lectures on
this phase Of rural Improvement. !,
People find it difficult, however,
from the suggestions given at a |
meeting of this kind to get just
the suggestions that they need and
to incorporate these suggestions
into a working plan. Due to this
fact, the plan of the meeting for
those interested in this work this
year, has been changed. The gener-
al plan will be about as given be-
low.
Mr.. Herman, who is the In
structor in Landscape work at the
college, has been secured for two
days time in the county early in
March, one of these days will be
given to the Kennewick commune
ity. The general plan for the day
will include, first, a review of the
fundamental principles of land
scape designs, followed by the use
of exhibit material, either slides
or charts to show application of
these practices. Following this,
every person who is interested in
this work will take the plan of
the home grounds drawn to scale
and work out a definite program
of planting and placing of fixtures
on the grounds on plan previous
ly prepared in cooperation with the
county agents office. 1t is hoped
that by evening, the complete pro-
gram may have been worked out
and that every person will have a
very definite plan of just how the
grounds are to be planted, includ-
ing location of flower beds, shrub
berry borders, clumps, the individ-
ual specimans going into these
borders and clumps and their To-
cation in it, and other such details
necessary to good planting pro-
gram. We believe it will be entire
" possible to work out such plan
If a carefully made plan, drawn to
scale, is prepared previously.
Anv one interested in this type
of Improvement of the home
grounds, is urged to get IN touch
with the county agent at some time
in the near future. It will be pos

JACK RABBIT SPEED

Haw fast can jack rabbit
travel? The question has oeen
discussed and disputed wherever
western sportsmen have congre-
GATED. Ira. N. Gabrielson, OF the
Biological Survey of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
has evidence to show 80 miles an
hour is safe answer.
He tells of an evening in a west
ern hotel when talk turned to jack
rabbit speed and the stage driver
reported that while driving at 80
miles an hour rabbit ran down
the road ahead of the stage and
outdistanced it.
'The next morning." Gabrielson
says" my companion and / started
north in about foot OF well-pack-
ed snow through which a single
set of tracks and been broken by
the rather scanty auto travel.
About 10 miles out rabbit darted
from his shelter beneath the sage
brush, hoped down into the track
and started ahead, Expecting him
to run a few feet and then jump
to one side, we paid little attention
for some distance. But this was
an usual rabbit-he kept straight
ahead. A glance at the speedo-
meter showed we were going about
80 miles an hour, and the rabbit
without any apparent undue effort
was running away from us.
Suddenly we remembered the
stage drivers remark of the night
before and increased our speed
gradually to 35 miles an hour be-
fore we were holding our own. On
went the rabbit for perhaps half
a mile with US slowly climbing up
on him running a little over 35
miles per hour. Several times we
brought the car to 35 miles and
each time our speeding friend held
his own. 1t ives quite apparent
that either it was the same rabbit
the stage driver passed, or one
geared to exactly the same speed.
The above article reprinted from
the clip sheet of the U. S. D. A..
may not have much of a practical
value but the question of the rab-
bit problem is of primary import
ance to nearly every farmer of the
county. Rabbit poisoning done at
this time of the year, we must
remember, will be more efficient
than summer poisoning since every
rabbit killed now means at least
five or six less next summer.
A number of bats are being used
and the Bureau of Biological Sur
vey is still working in the county

HOPE JAZZ MUSIC
 WILL STIR TURKS
New Government Seeks to Awaken Sluggish Anatoians

Angora, Turkey, Nov. 8 R)-That music has charms to Americanize the Asiatic breast, is the theory on which the government of Mustapha kemal is working as a part of it's program for the >Americanization of Turkey. The Fine Arts in general, and music in particular, are being drafted by the indefatigable Ghazi into an army of measures destined to attack the sluggish, fatalistic minds Of 15,000,000 Anatolians and impregnate therein the spirit of America.
 Under government orders, com omission of Turkish musicians has Just made an extensive tour of lAnatolia during which it has re- tcorded on gramophone records more than 800 folk-songs of the Asiatic Turks. These wailing, wilting melo- dies are to be jazzed up by the com- mission, the vail and the wilt are to be jerked into the compelling Hgaiety of Tin Pan Alley and then these Americanized versions of cen- jturies-old melodies are to be redis- trihuted throughout Anatolia.
 An army for spreading the new music is to be trained in conser- 'Natory of music to be opened in 'Angoria this winter.
 The students of Angora's first school Of music will be memorable in history, for it is they who will spread the new voice of Turkey" writes one of kemals foremost spokesmen, the deputy Falih Rifki ,Bey, in the official newspaper, "Mili- lett" This propagandist is the real leader in the governments Ameri- canization campaign.
