"Today there is nothing that has not beoii des- `
troyed. The tapestries have been hacked to pieces,
the pictures silt from corner to corner, the leather
and other chaircovcrings have been ripped from their
Yrames and all the delicate marquestrle and the ir-
replacabls examples of craftmanshlp of past centuries
have been smashed. The legs have been torii off the
talbles and used -ln further work of destruction. There
is not a mirror which has not been broken and the
glass and china flung at them lie in fragments before
them.
"Tho costly carpets have been soiled and ripped
and dirt -thrown at the silken paper on the walls.
This vent of fury has been carried on to the extent
of smashing nurseries and dolls’ houses. The fashion
in which beds and rooms have been deflled is dililcult

There is no elgn of the disease on the

variably give rise to s diseased crop
with the same symptoms and same
yielding capacity. This is the princi-
pal way in whlchit-he disease is per-
pctuatetd, but it can also spread short
distances in the field from affected
plants to neighboring healthy ones.
The latter look normal the llrst year
but the tubers produced -by them may
give rise to a crop which is largely
diseased.
It also appears clearly from some

Another important disease whlchrre-
duces the potato crop in Ontario, is
Mosiac. lt is recognized by the fact
that' t-he leaves are corrugated or
puckered all over, and mottled with
faint light grcen spots. lt is most
prevalent on Green Mountains und
is most readily seen during dull, cool
weather such as we had in June. Dis-
eased plants niay' not be niucli i'edu»_:-
ed in size unless the attack is sevcrc.
but they are less vigorous and less
well able to 'withstand drought and
tl-p-burn. The yield is not reduced to
the same extent as in Leaf Roll, but
it seldom exceeds twoihirds ol tliri
normal, The eating or keeping quail
ties of the potatoes are not aifecteil
and there is no sign by which diseas-
ed tiibers may be recognized.
The trouble is spread by the use of
thc seed froiii affected plants as lii_ the
case of Leaf -Iloll. It is not known
definitely if it spreads in thc field or
if -the climatic conditions of Ontario
induce it in healthy potatoes, but both
may occur. lt certainly often lip--
pears ln a inucli more aggravated form
in Ontario than in tlio Maitilme Pro-
vlnccs for instance.
The control of Leaf’ Roll, Mosaic and
some similar but less common diseases
can ‘be readily deduced from what has
been said above. It consists of the
periodical introduction of healthy secrl
from districts from wlilch Lclif Roll lit
least is naturally absent' Such dis-
tricts as these may be found in North-
ern Ontario and the Maritime Pro-
vinces. This course is being follow-'
cd with success by many growers and

TOMORROW AND NEXT DAY:¢-
Jenny V. writes me, that she is very
anxious about the future. The one
whose advice the centuries have prov-
ed to be safe said, “Take iio (anxious)
thought for the morrow.” Anxiety
kept up spells unhappiness and gen-
erally prevents us from accomplishing
what we otherwise could accompllsh.”
Fear not for it is your Fathers good
pleasure to give you the kingdom."
You can depend, it you are living.
right to-day, that the best of life is
yet to come. The future holds in its
hiind nothing but good for those who
are doing right today.
“ONE WHO IS SLANDERED:" ln-
quires, "What shall I do to counteract ‘
the false reports they are spreading
about me " As li rule it ls best to
ignore all such reports. If you are
living right these evil reports will not
in the long run, do you any -harm. li,
unfortunately the reponts are true.
you had better pay no attention to
them in any event, but you can make
such reports ot'you in the future to
be slanderous. Live right. think
kindly of everybody, do all the good
you can, keep a clear conscience and
you need not be afraid what man can
do unto you.
