Introduction d of virulent bacteria into the interior plant tissues is necessary for infection. g These points are given in a retent t United States department of agricul ture publication detailing the results of studies on the disease, which occurs in 31 states, including the territory from Vermont and Canada to Florida and west to Minnesota, Nebraska, Col erado and Texas. The disease also probably occurs in parts of California. Of the common domestic cucurbits the disease affects cucumbers, cantaloupes, summer and winter squashes and pumplkins, but not watermelons. Use Bordeaux Mixture. Spraying with strong bordeaux mix ture and lead arsenate paste (4-5-5( plus 2) is recommended where the dis ease Is likely to be severe. Treatments should begin as soon as the cucumber plants develop their first true leaves and should continue at intervals of about a week until the cucumber bee tles ,pr tically disappear from the field. In localities where downy mil dew Is also prevalent the treatments should be continued later as a partial iatnranee against this disease.

Nature has her own percentage rules which are as infallible, in the long run, as the dealer's margin at a Monte Carlo gambling resort. Accord ing to this inflexible law of averages, there are about as many bull calves born each year as there are heifer calves. Every good dairyman knows the value of a purebred sire of good rec ord, and what such an animal may accomplish in the way of improving a grade or scrub herd. Despite their acknowledged value, it appears that 73,000 purebred bull calves of dairy breeds were killed for veal or were fattened for beef in 1918. A chart has been prepared by the dairy division, United States depart ment of agriculture, which furnishes a graphic illustration of what happened to the purebred hull calves in 1918. The line representing purebred Hol stein-Friesian cows registered in 1918 Farmers Are Urged to Conserve Their Purebred Bull Calves Wherever Practical Instead of Butchering Them. runs out to 80,000. The line for the bulls of this breed registered during the same year extends Only to 30,000. The difference, 50,000, represents the approximate number of bull calves not registered. Presumably most of them were either vealed or fattened as steers. The Jersey breed in 1918 registered 30,000 cows and about 12,000 bulls--a loss df 18,000 purebred sires, many of which might be more profitably em ployed in the work of- improving scrub herds. Guernsey and Ayrshire totals are tess, but the percentage of loss is heavy there alaw .ta the face , this waste ltls esti mated that five grades or scrub bulls are in use for every purebred bull. A cording to experts of the United States departmeut of agriculture the repiaeement of scrub and$ grade bulls with good purebreds would quickly and materially raise the average pro duetton of dairy herds. One of the reasons for the surprising situation outlthed is probably an underdevel oped system of distribution. iTHUNDERSTOiUS SOUR MIlLK The.ry Held by Mqny People, but A. th"oritis Attrbute Trouble to Other C.us.e Tie season for thuanderstorne Is at hand sad a good m'any farmers wives will be eescerned about the souring ot the milk.

Adequate Facilities Would Enable Pro. ducer to Pick His Market and Sell When and Where It Is Most Advantageous. Regardless of the shortage of labor and other production problems con fronting the farmer, the main cause for his not securing the full profits due him can still be traced to insufficient transportation facilities, at the time he must get his crops to market. The farmer who can convert the spoilage on the farm into cash gobs a long way toward satisfactorily offsetting every thing else eating into his returns. . This is particularly true in the case of highly perishable produce, also that which has a high market value early in the season. Another advantage of adequate farm transportation is that Gathering Potatoes in Field and Load ing on Truck. it enables the farmer to pick his mar ket. He can sell when and where it will be to his greatest advantage to do so. The farmers in the potato growing section of Maine have a period ot about seventy days to market their crbp. The case of one man in Aroo stook county and what he did to put his yearly returns in the plus column is nbt only interesting but typical of how these men solved their haulage difficulties. This parttcular grower had a 160 acre potato farm situated seven and one-half miles from a railroad. It yielded .about 150 barrels to the ecre for a total crop of around 24,000 bar rels a year. Road conditions were such that one team of horses could haul but 20 barrels to a load and make but one trip a day to the railroad stor age house. In other word. he required 20 teams to handle his crop if be got it to the warehouse in the 70 days be tween "digging" and sew. Of course all the other farmers of the commun ity were in .the same position and nat urally none of them could secure any thing like 20 teams. -ven if they had the loads could not have been handled at the loading platform. Incidently. the haulage cost of the 20 teams would have been $6,000. The farmer in quesion pat the prob lem up to a truck ceoncern. They pre acribed a truck for his job. He bought it. This handled 45 barrels of potatoes to the lead, made six trips a day and more at night, put the potatoes In, the storehouse In 70 days and more than paid for Itself while It -was doing It as the regular haulage rate by teams was 25 cents a barrel. The motortruck Is not a cuteall for pvery transportation ll, but It haE barely scratehed the aurface as a farm transportation unit There are ha numerable ces of where It can go ag remarkably long way to give the farm or more of the preIts due him.
