ACTERIAL soft rot is a dia..
B
ease liable to attack tlesliy
vegetables and flowers, partt-
,
cnlarly carrots, cauliflower,
turnips, celery, tomatoes, iris and
mala lily, and in a lesser degree
onions, asparagus, salsify, sugar beet
and mangel. Occasionally the dis-
ease results in heavy losses' to the
grower of these crops.
General Appearance of the Disease
As the name signifies, the disease
results in a soft, wet rot of the plant
attacked. The rotted portion of the
plant is darker In color than the rest
of the plant. The color of the dis-
eased part varies from a light, red-
dish or greenish brown to a very
dark brown.
Cause of the Disease.
' The disease Is due to the action of
a certain species of bacillus known
generally as the vegetable soft rot
bacillus. This 1s a very minute or:
ganfsm about 1-10,000 of an Inch
long and 1-20,000 of an inch thick,
but when it gets into the vegetable
tissue through a wound made by the
hoe or cultivator or insect bite, it
feeds on the plant juice and multi-
plies rapidly and as it develops it
produces an enzyme, which digests
or softens the firm tissue, breaking
, .it down into a soft, pulpy, strong-
' smelling mass, which is easily de -
I tected, - In this soft -rotted tissue the
bacilli will be Present in millions.
In cauliflower the disease is found
more oft:sa In the flower than in the
heaves or stem; the latter parts, hoW-
ever, are also supject to attack.
a In turnip, the disease most fre-
sluentiy tetters at or near the crown,
through caterpillar or slug attack, or
through injuries received during hoe-
ing or cultivation. It softens or rots
the leaf petioles at their base, caus-
ing them to fall" over, and spreads
slowly in dry weather, rapidly in wet
weather, through the tissue of the
root, inducing a brown -colored soft
rot, with strong odor.
In carrot the disease enters and
develops in much the same way as
described for the turnip. It is more
apt to spread rapidly through a crop
that is thickly sown and not well
thinned out, the shade produced by
the•• heavy tops making ideal con-
ditions by keeping the ground moist
ear the development of the disease
when once it gains entrance, and har-
boring slugs and. caterpillars that
spread the. disease, Carrots which
crack beneath the ground are liable
to be attacked - by the disease, the
sett rot bacillus gaining entrance to
the tissues through the cracked
ourfaco.
In eatery the disease le not very

octan found starting at or near the
toile of tie young geerselh.
lin tomatoes the bacterial soft rot
is very common during wet seasons.
It is Fouad Most frequently in the
trate that are in contact with the
sail atter they have eoatmeaeed to
rims, The bacillus will not readily
penetrate through the unbroken skin
of 'the tataato. But when a tomato
Ls resthas on the damp earth, that
Peet of the skin is contact with the
sett is frequently weakened, thus pro -
v d:leg a means of aecess to the be-
cSlne. This, however, is not the only
moans whereby the disease eaters the
Trott. Siege are very partial to totna-
tees jest ripening. In their attack
on the fruit they oat through the
skin, leaving the interior flesh ex-
posed. This exposed surface is an
ideal medium for the bacillus of soft
rot to develop in. The writer has
found many tomatoes, particularly in
wet seasons, when slags are plenti-
ful, that have contracted the disease
in this way,
CHORCH NOTES
Representative Presbyterians from
all parts of the Dominion, at the
septi -annual Meeting of the foreign
Mission board of the Presbyterian
Church in 'toronto last week, have
been wrestltug with tie high cost of
missions, After careful pranit g the
total estimates for 1920, as set forth
by the board, amounted to i1521,073,
This aluoultt is $64,711 over the esti-
mates for the present year, The board
closed its last year with a deficit of
$49,105, and anticipates that this debit
balance wiU be increasedto not less
than $70,000 at the end of this year.
From the London Advertiser We
learn that the Presbyterian congre-
gation at Essex hits extended a call to
Rev. J. G. Reid, of South Kinloss
church, and formerly of Londesboro,
rhe Essex congregation offers a salary
of $1,500 per year, a free manse, lind

Extract of Wild Strawberry when I had
dysentery so bad I passed nothing but

our doctor, but it, failed to help me. A
friend of mine dropped into see me one
afternoon. I was so weak I was in bed.
She told me what "Dr. Fowler's" had
done for her little boy, and she went
home and got the bottle she always kept
in her medicine chest, and believe me
four doses helped me so I could get up
and do my work. I took two more
doses and I was as normal as I should be.
I would not be without it now if it were
five dollars a bottle. My husband has
used it since I did, for diarrhoea and
he got sfilendid results, You may
publish this if you wish, as it may lead
some other sufferer to a cure."
Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Straw-
berry for the past 74 years has had
phenomenal success in all cases of
diarrhoea, dysentery, cramps, collo, chol-
era morbus, cholera infantum, summer
complaint and bowel complaints of old
and young.
If you want to be en the safe side, if
you'don't want to experiment or take

Eradication and Control of Disease.
Spraying with fungicides, which is
so effective in controlling the fung-
ous diseases of plants, is of no avail
with bacterial diseases, as the bac-
teria which cause the disease act
in the interior tissue rather than on
the surface; hence the spray will not
reach them.
Spraying with insecticides is help-
ful indirectly, as it tends to keep
in check the insects, slugs, cater-
pillars, etc., which are one of the
most common means of spreading
bacterial diseases from one plant to
another.
As a rule, the best method to adopt
in dealing with a plant infected with
bacterial disease is to carefully re-
move and burn it. Insects, garden
tools, eta., coming in contact with
:it will spread the disease to the
,plants with Which they come in con -
.tact later.
Therefore, in order to prevent
losses from bacterial soft rot of
plants, remove and burn affected
;plants, or parts of plants, as soon as
observed; be careful during cultiva-
tion not to wound plants, and keep
. caterpillars, slugs and biting insects
in cheek. Affected plants should
.never be, put on the compost heap
,tor manure pile.
Harvesting and Storing.
When harvesting and storing tur-
nips, cauliflower, cabbage, celery,
tomatoes, or other vegetables from
crops in which the disease has been
Present, great care should be taken
not to include any specimen that
shows the slightest appearance of
the disease, or to smear the healthy
specimen with the soft rotted parts
of diseased specimens. If these pre-
cautions are neglected, the disease is
liable to establish 'itself and spread
more or less rapidly through the ea-
lire crop stored,—D. H. Jones, U.S.A.

With This Belief Many Thous-
ands Have Learned the
Exceptional Value of Dr.
Chase's Nerve Food.
I. John the Baptist Testifies to His.
Disciples Concerning Jesus (vv. 29-
34).
1, Jesus as the Lamb of God (v. 29),
"Lamb" was familiar to the Jewish
mint. It denoted a substitutionary
sacrifice for x111, Christ was the true
iniub to wltich every sacrificial offer-
ing pointed. He was the lamb which
Israel showed should be brought ,to the
slaughter (Ian. 83:7), upon whom the
Lord Inld man's Iniquity. Christ was
(rod's Iamb because he was the one
set apau•t from the foundation of the
world to make atonement for man's
stns (1 Pet, 1:18-20). John invited his
disciples to behold the Lamb of God.
2. The. Baptizer with the Holy,
Ghost (vv. 30-8r).
The Spirit descended upon him as
Isaiah said (Isa. 11:2). Jelin then
knew for a certainty that he was the
baptizer with the Holy Ghost. The
Same Holy Spirit will be given to all
who ask for him (Luke 11:13).
3. Jesus is the Son of God (v. 84).
Being the snn of God he is one in na-
ture with God.
11. Two Disciples Following Jesup
(vv. 31-37).
As a result of the Baptist's testi-
mony, two of the disciples leave him
and follow Jesus. At John's request
they loolf'ed. This look was sufficient
to induce them to follow Jesus. A
sincere look upon Jesus is always
sufficient. John did not become en-
vious of Christ's success, but re-
joiced in It (John 3:20-29). Ml Sun-
day school teachers should so witness
that the pupils will look to and follow
Jesus. This Is the whole method, the
sura and substance of salvation.
III. The Disciples Abiding With
Jesus (vv. 38, 39).
Seeing the disciples following him,
Jesus made inquiry as to their object.
Their reply showed the desire to go
apart privately where they could dis-
close their hearts to him. He invl led
them to his abode, where for the re-•
minder of that day they enjoyed sweet
Intercourse with him.
IV. The Disciples Bringing Others
to Jesus (vv. 40.42).
Having found by experience what
fellowship with Jesus means, they go
at once and tell others of their price.
Tess treasure.
1. Andrew brings Peter (vv. 46-42).
Peter was Andrew's brother. A trio
brtdlsr who Ess level ChM will as
and tell his bretbree. The pr*psr
plaee to begin witnessing for Cbr)et is
among ones kinfolk (Lake CO).
(2) Philip brings Nathaniel (.vvielll-
4li). He witnessed to bum roweeraila
the megilatrship of Jesus. He told then
that Christ was he of whom Moses and
the prophets did speak. Christ is the
ems and sobatance of the CNd TestM-
ment.
The disciples invited others to egno
end see. They knew that 1f they
would but put Jesus to the Hatt they
would believe. Chriatlaaity courts Ise

You hear people talking albout Dr.
Onase's Nerve Food. You read
about it in the newspapers. You
wonder 1f It would benefit you. And
while you are hesitating others are
using it to great advantage.
This treatment for the restora-
tion of the blood and nerves is so
different to most medicines that you
may not realize why you can be so
cettain of benefit from Its use,
in order to maintain the vigor of
the nervous System an abundance of
pure, rich blood is necessary. When
the nervous system becomes exhaust-
ed and you are easily tired and suffer
fromn headaches, sleeplessness, ir-
ritability or indigestion, it is because
the blood is failing to supply proper
nutrition to the nervous system.
By forming new, rich blood, Dr,
Chase's Nerve Food naturally and
certainly restores the vigor of the
nerves. Since it works hand-in-
hand with nature, it cannot fall to
be of benefit, and there is no reason
why it will not help you just as it
has the writer of this letter.

about a year I was troubled with
nervousness, and took doctors'
medicine, but it did not seem to re- ,

An Alsatian artist, Hans', was
once condemned by the High Court
of Leipzig to one year's imprison-
ment for sedition in connection with
caricatures in a nursery book. He
seized the opportunity of regaining
freedom which presented itself and
fled to France, where he decided to
remain rather than surrender to the
malevolent German authorities.
An artist in Russia iilvstrated a
book of fairy-tales, and the authori-
ties ordered the whole edition of the
book to be confiscated and destroyed
because one of the pictures portrayed
the assassination of an emperor. The
artist, indignant, saved a few copies
of the work, and distributed them
among his friends. Information. of
his action in this respect reached the
authorities, and for this he was sen-
tenced to a term of imprisonment.
Some time before the war Dr.
Erich Zepler and Herr Karl Schmidt,
two Berlin journalists, were each
sentenced in the criminal courts to
six weeks' detention in a fortress
for libelling the Crewn Prince of
Germany by comparing him to a
"sentimental 'flapper' of the high
nobility," The incriminating article
was a burlesque of the Crown
Prince's farewell order to• his Danzig
regiment, and it look the form of an
effusive farewell letter from a "flap-
per" to the other girls at a boarding
school. '
The Berlin authorities, in pursu-
ance of the law concerning insults t8
the German monarch, ordered the
confiscation of Mr. Upton Sinclair's
hone entitled "The Industrial Ra
pul,iic," while the late Mr. George
Griffith did not please the Russian
Govu,-nment when he wrote "The
Anget of the Revolution." The sit-
uation in the story was far from flat-
tering to the administration of the
Tear, and the author learned, after
the book had been confiscated and
destroyed by the police of Petrograd,
that if he were found in Russia he
might have considerable ditffcnity
in getting back to England. He did
not, however, afford the authorities a

When Lite Grows Broader,
God does not count prosperity es
we count it. Our sense of proportion
Is largely shaped by our experiences,
When life is quiet and sheltered, and
the stream runs smoothly, we notice
every ripple and magnify every small
obstruction. We are fully occupied
with our work, our small worries.
Then comes some grief, calamity, or
new responsibility which suddenly
cbenges everything. Our old Interests
ere dwarfed and look so petty that we
wonder that we ever allowed such
trifles to burden pur souls, By such
experiences life grows broader and
higher and takes on new values, We
have new standards of measurement
for our fellow men as well as our-
selves.

Comradeship
Admiral Sir David Beatty
DMIRAL Sir David Beatty, when
speaking at Leicester a few days
ago, said :—
"We have been through four and a half
years of a great struggle. We have all
learned something — the true value of
comradeship. Comradeship has enabled
us to win the war."
Realizing the significance and truth of this
statement the Citizens' Liberty League ap-
peals to the people of this Province to develop
the spirit of comradeship, mutual forbearance,
toleration and sympathy. Let us be fair-
minded, less rigid, more reasonable, and more
willing to give and take.
The workingmen of Ontario eppeel for bet-
ter beer—non-intoxioating beer—beer con-
taining 2.51% alcohol by weight — TI -IE
BEER OF THE BALLOT.
Samuel Gompers, the world's greatest labor
leader, stated the workingman's position
clearly when he said c
"The normal men, the men of Labor who
work eight hours a day end no more, the
workmen who earn decent pay, the work•
men who have comparatively comfortable
homes, they do not want the artificial spirit.
The man of normal spirit finds comfort in
pleasant surroundings; he does not need,
and, ase role, does not partake of intoxicat-
ing'drinks;he shuns the effects of intoxicants.
What we'how ask is that the men of Labor.
the masses of our people, shall have the op-
portunity to drink a glass of beer of not
more than 2f(% by weight of alcohol in that
Samuel Compere
heer, and I nm told you cannot drink enough
of that character of beer to get drunk even
if you tried."
Scientific tests, practical experiments end
thorough research prove that beer of even
greater strength than 2,51% of alcohol by
weight, is absolutely non -intoxicating, (The
results of these tests have been tiled with
the United States Circuit Court of Appeals).
As no harmful results can possibly come
from drinking beer of this quality—is therm
any fair or logical reason why the working
men should not have the more palatable
beer for which they are asking —TEIE
BEER 00 THE BALLOT?
Support the working men and the Citizens'
Liberty league in the endeavor to obtain
a fair, just and reasonable compromise on
the present too drastic prohibitory legisla-
tion.
