BEDDING POTATOES.
Beware of Sweet Potato Disease
Which Will Cut Down Your Yield,
Ruin Potatoes in Storage and
Lower the Selling Price.
[National Crop Improvement Service.]
You insure your house against loss
by fire, your hogs against loss by
cholera—why not insure your sweet
potato crop against loss from disease?
A big crop of sweet potatoes is
largely a matter of cleanliness.
Disease is spread by infected soil
where grown; filthy implements; in
sects; manure; using unknown seed
from another state or neighborhood;
worses’ hoofs; boots of farmers; care
essness with diseased potatoes which
lave been discarded; feeding live
stock raw diseased potatoes.
Sanitary rules have freed the United
States from the yellow fever plague,
have cut down the deaths from ty
phoid fever and have in many ways
increased the chances of living.
The great hazard in growing sweet
potatoes, is disease. For example,
black rot, stem rot, foot rot, etc. The
losses from these diseases in untreated
plots range from 10 to 50 per cent
and sometimes ruin the entire crop.
So you must clean and disinfect
your hoe, rake and shovel used in mak
ing the potato bed.
Don’t use soil of last year’s bed to
make this year’s bed. Clean sand is
the best earth to use. Rake up all
rubbish from around the bed and cart
it av, ay to some safe place where
neither animals nor men may come
in contact with it. Burn it when
dried.
Don’t use stable manure in the bed,
but if stable manure must be used,
make sure that it does not come from
animals fed on uncooked potatoes.
Never throw a diseased potato out
on the ground but have a basket or
box for them, being careful to destroy
them.
Will Destroy Good Disposition
Bad digestion will ruin the
best disposition. If the world
looks dark and blue, if you
are generally “out of sorts”
and feel stuffed up and un
comfortable, just take a Foley
Cathartic Tablet. Relieves
mean headaches, biliousness,
bloating, sour stomach, con
stipation and ills that follow
disordered digestion. For

Store. Adv.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
The Ford Sedan, with electric self-starting
and lighting system and demountable rims with
3}4-inch tires front and rear, for every day in
the year has no equal as a family car. Just as
popular on the farm as it is in the city. In fact,
it fits the family demands in every vocation of
life. Large, roomy seats, finely upholstered, plate
glass windows make it an open car in pleasant
weather, while in rainy and inclement weather
it becomes a closed car, dust-proof and rain
proof. It is not only comfortable, but really
cozy, and above all. economical in operation
and maintenance, and has all the Ford merits
of strength and durability. %
