TION` POTATO DISEASES '
(Experimental Farms Note.),
Degeneration diseases of 'potatoes
are those , such its rnosaie, leaf curl,:
curly -dwarf, spindle tuber and the
like, which are known to•be spread
in the fields by aphids, plant Iice, and
which can. only be elintiniated by -re-
moving the source of inlection..'The
.
source in'every ease can be traced to
tuber's_ e hien were fora d- in diseased
hills tate previous year. -The aphids
feed on'the;.plants arising from these -
tubers, and whets they go to, healthy
ones they carry, some of the infection
with them, and in the cohrse of feed-
ing, inoculate the juice from the dis-
eased pleat, into the ,healthy. one. In
the course; of,:a few weeks the former-
ly : healthy plant:--" diseased. In
order to pi-eveint the spread of these
degeneration diseases it -is necessary
to go through the flelcl about the
time the plants are eight to ten inches
high and pull out all that appear un-
desirable. ' In doingthis be sure to
romove the entire *plant -system, in -
eluding the^seed piece, The removal
of 'plants in -this-away in known as
"rogeeing-." Two or 'three ;-weeks
later •the field should -be given a thora
ough inspection 'arid • all •tdiseased or
undesirable plants xogued, " -It is
also necessary at this ,time to remove
any 'foreign varieties which may be
present', Should it be necessary to
rogue a field after the • tubers' have
begun to form, care should' be taken
to remove these as well as the plant.
This will reduce to "a 'ininiruin the
clanger of-tha disease being carried

- `Ar great city learns to depend' upon

he difficulties of the post °face
were complicated -by a , tiutinber of
factors: There was no regalia): sil-
ver., -coinage; .accounts were -kept in
pounds, shilling's and pence, though
people talked in decimal currency;
letters could be posted eitheraid' or
unpaid,'' and large firms or'reliable
private” parties could secure credit' and
pa"y.their postage bills monthly. The
confusion due to the two systems of
currency and'- absence of Canadian
coins may be judged from the. fact
that American quarters; English shil-
lings and Mexican quarters were all
in use, passing for is 3d, is 21/34 and
1s respectively, Even the copper
coins were oddities, some being* is-
sued by the Bank of'Montreal, while
others in common use 'in 'Torontp
were circulated by Joseph Leslie and
Son, of Dundas.;'
The telegraph had come into use
in Toronto in 1846, the line (the first
in Canada) extending' to Niagara via
1=Iamiiton and St, Catharines. But
the pubic depended mainly upon the
mails: - the -telegraph was a 'new
erittur' and its tentacles .did not
reach out very far. And to -day,
despite the network of telegraph and
telephone lines, and the facilities for
personal communication, the mail
system-vastlydifferent from that
of the 'fifties' is the mainstay of
communication. But its place in the
national life is not realized until a
strike threatens. And then every-
body suddenly finds out that the pas-
ta]. service is one•of the keystones of
business and private life."
