MARKETS

WEATHER IS CAUSE OF HIGHER PRICES CHICAGO, May 20. Corn prices developed strength today owing largely to unsettled, cooler weather, adverse to rapid progress in planting. Selling pressure was light and the market advanced readily on scattered buying orders from commission houses. Some bullish sentiment was due to the large percentage of damaged cora In current arrivals and to questions as to whether under such circumstances a liberal supply of contract grade would be available for delivery on June and July sales. Opening prices, which ranged from l-8c lower to 1-2 advance, with May 127 3-4 and July 140 to 141, were followed by material gains. Congestion In the May delivery tightened up the oats market In general. Demand, however, was confined chiefly to small lots. After opening 1-8 off to 1-4 to 3-8c up with July 6j 5-8 to 66 3-4 to 7-8, the market continued to harden. Provisions rose with hogs. Arrivals nt the yards here were less numerous than had been looked for.

County Agricultural Agent BY J. C. KLINE . It is a well established fact that differentd iseases -'that effect potatoes are present in soils that have never been planted to potatoes. Potato seed may appear to be absolutely free of scab but when planted without treating it may appear in great quantities. . There is no treatment that will rid the soil completely of this disease but we can kill the diseases that are present on the tubers. The two treatments that are highly recommended are as follows: Corrosive sublimate (mercuric-chloride) 4 ounces. Water, 30 gallons. Dissolve the corrosive sublimate in a small quantity of hat water because it goes into solution very slowly in cold water. The solution must be

prepared in wood, enamel or concrete containers. It is not injurious to hands but is deadly poison when taken internally by man or animals. Treated potatoes should never be

used for domestic use or feeding. Soak the potatoes, before cutting, in the above solution 30. minutes. Formaladehyde (formalin) 1 pint. Water, 30 gallons. Soak the potatoes in this solution for 30 minutes. This chemical is safer to use since it does not corrode metal and is not a dangerous poison. This solution is not so generally effective as corrosive sublimate but it is much cheaper.
