LOSS BY Application of Bordeaux Mixture Check Serious Disease of Anthracnose. LOWERS YIELD AND QUALITY Average Cost Figured at 94 Cents an Acre, Which Farmers Consider Cheap Protection From a Very Serious Disease. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Much loss was prevented in the southeastern states in the past season by spraying for the watermelon disease, anthracnose. The organism which causes the trouble attacks the vines In the field, killing the follape und lowering both the yield and quality of the fruit. By covering healthy vines with a spray solution, Bordeaux mixture, they can be protected. Popularity of Method. The growth In popularity of this method may be seen In Florida. In not more than :iOO acres in that statu were sprayed. In HH'J over y.lCM) acres were sprayed under supervision of agents of the department of agriculture. Approximately two to Spraying Watermelon Vines for Anthracnose Control. four applications are required In order to give the vines protection. Using Ugurvs secured after working with types of power spray pumps in Florida last season, the average cost an acre came to 94 cents for each application. Farmers have decided that this Is cheap protection against a very serious disease, and It is believed certain that spraying will soon be recognized as a necessary step In good melon culture. Spread of Disease. Last season favored the spread of the disease. Severe rainy weather was experienced at one time or another during the growing season all over the melon belt, and moist weather with driving rains made it possible for this disease to spread through the Heids. Cars arrived at thfi New York market with SO to K) per cent of the melons affected, the sunken, decayed spots on the rind being so numerous that in some Instances the entire surface of the melon was affected. GARDEN AND TRUCK PATCHES Most Intensively Worked Spots on Farm and Contribute Greatly to Farmer's Income. Tlie most Intensively-worked Held on the farm, say specialists of the United states department of agriculture, Is the garden. For convenience it Is usually located close to the dwelling. Many farmers have, in addition, truck patches In Heids where intertilled crops, such a corn, are grow n. Those patches are conveniently plowed, prepared, and cultivated at the same time tlie ground is worked for the regular crop. In the truck patch potatoes, sweet corn, cabbage, tomatoes, squash, and cucumbers are usually raised. Vegetables constitute only about 11 per cent in value of all food consumed by fanners, and about ! per cent of the vegetables are furnished by the farm. In general. Irish potatoes are easily the most important vegetable raieil, constituting nearly one-half the value of all vegetables consumed. In the South, however, about twice as many weot potatoes as Irish potatoes are ued. MAKE STUDY OF FRUIT TREES Notice Carefully Which One Bears Heavily, Ripens on Time and Matures Big Crop. Notice the fruit trees carefully. See which tree bears heavily, ripens on time and matures a high grade of fruit. Notice tlje trees that are shy bearers, the tender trees susceptible to diseae and insect injury. It is highly desirable that the fruit pro wer become thoroughly familiar with tlie tendencies of the various trees so he will know how t treat them. Trees are much like animals. A person can always get better nsults with animals If he understands their peculiarities. Furthermore one always wants to know the t:ool trees :nd the poor trees. The poor will need be replaced us soon us practical. The desirable trees bearing large crops of highly desirable frnit may be reproduced, i'r.'paatiou bhould be from the best.

EARLY POTATOES ARE OF MUCH IMPORTANCE

Don't Crowd Out More Intensive Garden Vegetables. Wherever Space Will Permit It Is Advisable to Plant at Least One Peck of Seed Put Sugar Corn Between the Rows. One peck of medium-sized seed potatoes, cut so there will be two good eyes to n piece, and drrpped one piece to a hill, will plant 350 feet of row, according to the United States department of agriculture. If seasonal and other conditions are right this peck of seed potatoes should produce at least slxtecn-fold, or four bushels of potatoes. Some home gardeners have grown six and seven bushels of early potatoes from a peck of seed, but that Is exceptional. Sixteen pecks of potatoes, or 4S qunrter-pecks will provide the potatoes for at least 48 dinners for a family of five, with some left from each dinner to be fried for breakfast the following morning. Potatoes are important In the diet, and early potatoes from home gardeni are especially appetizing. It may not pay to crowd out the more intensive garden vegetables In order to grow early potatoes, but wherever space will permit at least one peck of seed should be planted. A good plan Is to plant late sugar corn between the potatoes about, the time the potato vines begin to show signs of ripening. Then as the potatoes are dug, hoe the soil around the corn. Late cabbage plants are often set between the potatoes and a crop of cabbage Is produced after the potatoes are removed. It always pays to keep the land working. BIG REVENUE FROM TOBACCO Figures Have Always Been Larger Than Those From Customs Tax $178,000,000 in 1918. The Internal revenue from tobacco has always been much larger than the customs receipts, says the United States department of agriculture. In the first years' operation of tlie law, 1 SM, Ilm Internal revenue was $3.000,000, In the next year $t000,000 and the amount increased to ,$:U,000,000 by 1ST0, $41.000,000 Iy 187. and $47,OOO.OiX) by 1S.S2. After that year, the amount declined and remained relatively low until 1808, with a lowwater mark of $i:a.OOO,on) in 1SS4. Suddenly, in 1800, the income jumped to $."12.000,000, and the amount reached $71,000.000 in 101L SSS.OOO.OW in 2 1 Tobacco Field in Virginia. 1010. $102,000,000 in 1017, and $150,000,000 in 1018. The receipts of internal revenue and customs together produced $lo000,000 in 1S0.1, $.72,000,000 in 1S07, $70,000.1 mm) In 1000, $104.000,000 in 10i:i, $i:;2.HH),0(X) in 1017, and $17S,0OO,0(X in 101 S. QUICKLY PERISHABLE CROPS Difficult to Form Any Reliable Judg ment for Marketing Berries, Melons and Peaches. It is particularly dIHicult to form any reliable market Judgment for quickly perishable, short-season erops like strawberries, peaches, and melon, says the United States department of agriculture. Markets in snieh lines are irregular, dilTering widely at the same time in dilTen-rt eitles because the nature of tlie crop does not admit of safe transfer between distant points and does not allow long keeping in cold storage. These lines feel quickly and severely the effect of oversupply, whether of car lots or from neighboring sources. As these crops are not strictly necessities, tbe demand Is somewhat uncertain, depending largely upon the buying power of the public, which may vary greatly from season to season. SMALL FLOCKS OF CHICKENS More Should Be Kept Where Conditions Make It Feasible in Vib lages and Towns. Where conditions make It feasible and cheap, small Hocks of poultry should be kept to a greater extent ban at present by families in villager and towns, and especially in the suburbs of large cities. The need for this extension of poultry niKh-.g th particularly great in sections wtre the consumption of poultry products exceeds the production, with tlie result that prices are high.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the qar. There is only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness, and that Is by a constitutional remedy. HALL'S CATARRH MEDICI NF acts through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous Unins of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is tho result. Unless the Inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing may be destroyed forever. Many cases of Deafness are caused by Catarrh, which is an Inflamed condition of the Mucous Surfaces.

Special Care of Baby. That Baby should have a bed of its own all are agreed. Yet it is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups than to use a man's medicine in an attempt to regulate the delicate organism of that same infant. Either practice is to be shunned, Heither would be tolerated by specialists in children's diseases. Your Physician will tell' you that Baby's medicine must bo prepared with even greater care than Baby's food. A Baby's stomach when in good health is too often disarranged by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving to your ailing child anything but a medicine especially prepared for Infants and Children ? Don't be deceived. Make a mental note of this: It is important, Mothers, that you should remember that to function well, the digestive organs of your Baby must receive special care. No Baby is so abnormal that the desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily prepared for grown-ups.
